I will be done with all of the books today! I’m doing a quick sweep through all of the boxes and pulling out the children’s books for my grandsons and another sweep of the house to make sure that no books are left behind. I will be so glad to have this done. My back has been aching enough to keep me awake at night. The books will be loaded into my…[Read more]

That is so inspirational. It’s very easy to wallow in grief and self pity.  Good for her.  And thanks for sharing her story!

I finally finished removing the wallpaper in my dining room. My sister-in-law is coming for a visit tomorrow, so it pushed me to finish, since it’s the first time she’ll see my home.

Had a phone conversation with a therapist today, and she’s hooking me up with some people who will help me with my anxiety issues.  Very timely since my anxiet…[Read more]

Working on it. I got up early today and was showered and dressed before hubby was up. Left the house right after he did. Now I’m trying to finish up sorting all those books. And laundry. I wish the temperatures would at least get out of the mid to upper 90’s. The amount of laundry I’d have to do would drop significantly. Supposedly mid week next…[Read more]

Sounds like a good plan!

Yup, sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and ask for help. Not a thing wrong with that and something I should do more.

Still working on the house. Sometimes I think that I will be working on cleaning out the house forever!

Breakfast was a Quest bar

Lunch will be turkey and veggie tots

Dinner will be leftovers.

Mid-week sweep!

I see today you meet with the nutritionist. I want to hear how that goes, please.

Have you been making more time for yourself this week? I know you made time for ME by looking at that e-book. I’m very thankful.

Mid-week sweep! How are things going?

I hope the stress is manageable my friend. 🙂

Ok here’s how the day shook out. Not great but it is what it is!

• Sausage Egg McMuffin for breakfast
• Indian butter chicken w/ salad for lunch
• Power Crunch Bar for snack
• A chalupa from Taco Bell for dinner

Mostly because I just really was in an “I don’t care” kind of mood. I thought this morning about why that was and have determined it’s…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>I woke up very tired this morning. I’m on day 4 of a major headache (we had to front come thru) that I just can’t seem to shake. However, I am getting some things done. I bought a 4 pound tub of peanut butter and on Monday and by mid afternoon (I’m taking a lunch break) the entire tub will have been made into protein…[Read more]

This is relatively minor. Three years ago when OAC Convention was in Orlando the hotel ATM machine apparently had a card skimming device affixed to it and someone made off with $5,000 of my money! After fighting with the bank (who thought I spent it and was trying to recoup…because, like, I would do that, #1. And #2 by the money was withdrawn…[Read more]

Did my Zumba! Felt good.

I woke up this morning, as my husband said, totally frazzled. I can’t seem to maintain a thought in my head. However, I did get my “monthly maintenance” things done. (ran dishwasher cleaner through the dishwasher, disposal cleaner through the disposal, washing machine cleaner thru the washer and cleaned the filters on the washer and dryer…[Read more]

Ok so your mother-in-law is going in my prayers ASAP.

My boyfriend has both Type II diabetes and stage 4 kidney disease (he has both kidneys but is on peritoneal dialysis) so I know how those things can complicate other stuff.

While I think your husband is right, I think you are right too. You’re a worrier. That’s part of who you are! So I think…[Read more]
