Things are starting to happen at my husband’s work. We don’t know if this is a good thing or not yet. But even my husband is admitted to being stressed which is a really big deal for him.

Steps are done, liquids are a work in progress.

I’m pretty much useless today due to a bad night’s sleep.

On the good side of things, my 27 year old son…[Read more]

Mid-week sweep!

I’ve been so jealous of your Scotch Eggs. How’s the house coming along?

I never did mid-week sweep you!

How are you, Maria?

Jennie O sausage is what I used. Two ounces per egg.

I need to make some Scotch Eggs. I just bought Jennie-O sausage so…hmmmmm…

Today has been an ok day so far. It was much cooler than I thought it would be, but that’s ok!

I took the bus again this morning. I didn’t hate it. 🙂 I get my car back tomorrow but this incident has me wondering if I should explore taking the bus. I need to sit down…[Read more]

I’m COLD!!!!!!! We’ve gone from the mid 90’s on Saturday to 45 degrees this morning! So far we’ve managed to get up to 60! My thin Texas blood wasn’t ready for this!

I’m working on the front bedroom today. So far, it’s going quicker than expected. My husband’s more and more feeling like we need to get the house ready to sell as quickly as…[Read more]

Today is my oldest daughter’s 37th birthday and I’m feeling a little bit old! ?

Grocery shopping is done, laundry is almost finished and dinner is started. I have my steps done and am almost to my 80 ounces of liquids.

Breakfast was a Scotch egg

Lunch was turkey salad on a jarlsberg cheese wrap

Dinner will be cube steak and a salad with…[Read more]

We ended up having a really good dinner. We had DIY burrito bowls. It was so easy too! The only thing I really had to “cook” was the chicken breast. I also made salsa from my garden tomatoes. Sigh. That is the epitome of life satisfaction for me: making things from food I grew myself.

Today’s been pretty good. A cold front that was supposed to bring rain and temps in the upper 40s this morning, didn’t. It’s very windy but the sun is shining and we stayed in the 60s all day. Now tomorrow morning is supposed to be in the 40s.

After church we had a quick lunch and then went shopping for some dress pants for hubby (no luck there)…[Read more]

Saturday was a good day for me. My oldest daughter is home on break and we hung out. I got my tire fixed (someone hit my car and bent my rim). The rim was fixable. Later in the day I learned the tire is not so much. I was driving and the darn thing popped! Turns out it also had a huge nail in it. Bah!

I can’t remember my eats from yesterday but I…[Read more]

Morning!  Rough emotional day yesterday!  I hate being taken for granted or …. yeah, that!

anyway, kids were pretty good with a very moody, sassy 10yr Old in the mix!  Made scalloped potatoes for dinner…yum!  Funny how there are 5 people living here, 2 of which are children, but i’m Always alone! 😳

tomorrow my hubby and I will get out of th…[Read more]

Ok, ok!  I’m here!  My days are basically all the same…  lol. But!!  I did get my nails done!  Food is doing pretty good… and i’m Staying away from wine so there’s that.  Exercise is on hold till I get some weight off due to the horrible pain in my knees!  Other than that…one Day is much like another. 😜

Wow. Daily Check-ins is getting lean.
