My list includes a day of sightseeing with hubby on 8/9 in New Orleans with NO children anywhere near us, not checking our phones constantly & relaxing; trying to remember why we are together.

It also includes Corndogs & Carnage at the Summit county fair THIS weekend!  I can’t believe it’s here!!!  Please pray my Screamer doesn’t reinjure her L…[Read more]

Last year at YWM, a chap mentioned eating with chopsticks. I’ve noticed when I do that, albeit not as often as I should, I tend to eat much slower & more mindfully.

Thanks friends!

I would happily accept hugs if you don’t mind me blubbery-crying…

Kathy, the support at home most definitely has changed/disappeared & i wonder as hubby stalls in his pre-op fear if that’s helping me falter  It is real easy to say “I hurt too much” & just flop about then actually walking around the park or daring to put skates…[Read more]

Hubby treated me to dinner tonight; had a couple bites of barbecued ribs, Mexican street corn (don’t need that again, who puts mayo on corn?), and a margarita.

I’m not a sunrise person but I will happily catch it on Aug 9 when I’m at the airport at 4:30 to fly to New Orleans; can that count?

So, lilly-bug & I used the panda/tiger masks from target & watched a documentary on Pompeii. (No pictures exsist of me with the tiger mask..)

An hour, eh?

i have slipped out of a community theatre showing of Fiddler on the Roof due to a NASTY sinus infection commingling with the special needs adult kid being “forced” into resigning from her job ($3 ain’t work h stealing regardless how badly you wanted whatever)

i may go find liquid adult medicine (margaritas ?)

My body is sore, not looking forward to a tilt table or cardiac MRI stress test. (Even having the dogs on the bed sometimes is more than I can do BUT their my pupper-ronis & I gots to love them)

i see the rheumatologist tomorrow & need to call my gyn re a hysterectomy for AFTER YWM17.

My body is tired…..   thinking my newest “illness” a…[Read more]

I spent my 2-3 hour tub time reading for fun & i’ve missed that.

I just unsubscribed from Monster.com as I’m probably going to school this fall.  I’m so happy to not have that constant reminder.

I left the remains of a gift card behind at Joanns fabric

I’m decluttering my craft supplies by using them to make masks.  I decluttered my basil/oregano by snipping it back & freezing the bits in olive oil.

This is about the extent of my energies today.

I would love that!  I’m contemplating dinner for breakfast, why can’t I have tacos for breakfast?   I need to think about food rules & why I can’t do dinner breakfast.  I want to try boiled eggs as they would be a great, portable breakfast or lunch or snack.

I have associated smells & eggs with negative childhood issues.  (adding this to talk wit…[Read more]

Kiddo had a day of reporting back on her Jamaica trip at all 3 services & needed to be there by 7:30.  Around 10:30, I informed her & the leader that we were leaving after the “sermon” at 11 cause I needed her to drive me home.

Breakfast was 2 oatmeal raisin cookies at church

lunch was 2 slices of little ceasers reheated and a nap

dinner was 2…[Read more]

I’ve got a large assortment of oils & have been diligent today with applying them. I think I smell good ( a family member thought I was wearing bug spray to church)

Spent time yesterday shuttling kids around & being distracted by clouds as I drove about.

Remember the game of “what do you see” when cloud gazing? Yeah, this and bird id get me just about every time.

We have bald eagles that nest near our house & i am always trying to catch a glance.

Breakfast, drive thru with Peanut Butter

Lunch ???

dinner, flatbread pizza at friend’s house

exercise= does shopping count? I made it halfway around my fitness tracker. I need to get the Y settled again since we changed banks.

Daycamp is OVER!!!

Kid has practice in the am for a youth led service at all THREE on Sunday to remember Jamaica,…[Read more]
