Affirmations all over my house. Three in the kitchen, one on each of the two bathroom mirrors, three on the treadmill and one on the door I go in and out of the most.

Kathy, I had forgotten about dry erase markers on the mirrors! That’s how I used to leave notes to my children. I’ll be leaving notes again, this time to myself!

Oh, I forgot…[Read more]

I spent a very pleasant couple of hours doing nothing but reading a book. It’s been a long time since I have had that much time to just sit and read!

Meal planning and prepping ahead of time! It takes the guess work out of my meals and I will actually eat real food instead of shakes or bars. I feel better physically and mentally when I do this. However, most of the time, I don’t do it, even knowing this. Probably because I have spent so many years skimping on my meals so that my husband and…[Read more]

I’m making some homemade chicken salad. It’s one of my favorite meals. After one of Nikki’s cooking demos, I started using plain Greek yogurt for part of the dressing and my hubby flipped over it and now requests it!

Would  you please post the recipe in the recipe exchange forum?!

Recipe, please! There’s a forum that you can post it in.

Another day of my husband’s forced vacation. (his work closed down for the entire week forcing employees to either take vacation or not get paid.) We can’t go anywhere because the pet boarding kennel was completely booked by the time he found out that he HAD to take vacation. Between that and his drs appointments yesterday (which caused a pain…[Read more]

So glad today is coming to a close! For some reason sleep was totally nonexistent last night. Of course, today was the day of multiple doctors appointments! (none for me!) My husband likes me to go with him to be his “ears”. He had an appointment in Temple this morning and one here in Waco this afternoon. Squeezed in between was a trip to the vet…[Read more]

I got a late start today. A whole lot going on, but I did get a picture started!

Take Two report : I made a donation to “Shepherd’s Heart” which is a local Christian food bank that feeds around 300-500 families every week including delivering food to senior citizens and shut-ins. They also host a Christmas party for hundreds of homeless children every year.

I messaged a friend of mine in Florida that I’ve been friends with since we both first got married in 1977. Both of our husbands were in the Marines and we lived next door to each other.

Everyone else is taking a nap so I’m sitting here with my headphones on listening to some Anthony Evens and Casting Crowns with a little Chris Tomlin, Sidewalk Prophets and Natalie Grant mixed in.

When I first read the list, I read the first one as “Get rid of one pesky thing”. My first thought was “I can’t,  he’s off work ’til the 10th”  Then I realized it was pesky item!! So, since I couldn’t do the first thing I thought of, I got two other pesky things done. First, my younger daughter is visiting from Austin, so I voluentold her to v…[Read more]
