I’m finally over the stomach bug my husband shared with me. However, last night was one of those nights that I just didn’t sleep. I finally dozed off just after five this morning. Unfortunately, the alarm goes off at 5:20. So I’ve been pretty much useless today. I ended up skipping my support group meeting.

Meals have actually been small snacks…[Read more]

Well, I can’t donate the books today because the library is closed for the holiday. So, one more day.

My husband is home sick, so that always makes it difficult to get things done. Lunch with my sis and a trip to the grocery store (without sis!) Steps and liquids, of course.

Breakfast will be a vanilla Premier Protein shake mixed with some Chai…[Read more]

Happy Sunday!

I’m sitting here in the quiet with the dog. It’s about 60 degrees outside (that won’t last long) and, so far, a beautiful sunny day! (yesterday was overcast and gloomy)

I have no real plans for the day so far other than loading more boxes of books than I want to think about into my car to donate tomorrow. It has occurred to me that…[Read more]

On the job front, the Greenville group is starting to look at the job applications from the Waco group. So we’re just waiting to hear back from them. Either way, we’re still getting the house ready to sell. We’ll either be moving or have a really nice house to live in!

The home office is nearly finished. I’ll be taking all of the books still here…[Read more]

WOOHOO! All of the books are sorted! I’m babysitting my 6 month old grandson this afternoon and told my son that payment for this was he and his wife going through the books to get what they want. Because, Monday, all of the books are being donated to the library. To give you a small idea of what this involved, I’m keeping 6 boxes of books (boxes…[Read more]

Happy Monday! (if there can be such a thing)

Today I’m catching up on all the things I didn’t do this past weekend and should’ve.

My grocery shopping is done. Found out that the the entire chain of stores is out of the only coffee my husband drinks. And it’s their store brand! My store has been sending frantic emails to corporate but corporate…[Read more]

I’m just checking in. I have no idea what today will bring and have no plans other than I told my husband that we have to get out of the house and do something to relax. No talking about his job or the house. For a minimum of 60 minutes. I’m sitting in the living room, sipping on a cup of coffee in the quiet. Hubby’s still asleep. The dog is…[Read more]

I’m going to continue to clean out my house this week. I’ve already contacted local charities to see what of this stuff they’ll take. My local library is going to be thrilled!

Getting my steps and liquids in. Both of these have been a major effort for me lately.

Planning meals ahead of time as much as possible. Especially breakfast and lunch.…[Read more]

Up early this morning to haul a truck load of stuff to the bulk trash collection day. We got there early and sat in the cool and quiet and watched a beautiful sunrise. As soon as hubby gets his shower, we’ll be off to pick up paint and flooring samples for the house.

Food wise, I don’t really have a clue yet. Probably a scrambled egg with turkey…[Read more]

WOOHOO! Today I will finally be through with sorting out all of those cookbooks in my home office. (my mom collected cookbooks and I ended up with most of them after she died.) I have three more shelves to go through and I’ll be done! I’m keeping three boxes of books total (not all cookbooks) and will be donating 10+boxes. I’ll also be done with…[Read more]
