The word that comes to mind for me is persevere.  I have several projects started here that I haven’t been working on.  Mainly because I wasn’t feeling great, but I really need to persevere and complete them.  If I’m being honest with myself, I can push through and do more.

I also need to persevere with my weight loss, so I can get my knee rep…[Read more]

Today has been a very long day. I woke up with a headache and it’s hung on all day. I went and picked up the makings for some homemade spaghetti sauce and added some pre-made turkey meatballs. Hubby’s thrilled, but my stomach is on the iffy side so I don’t know if I will have any.

We should find out if my husband’s going to be offered a new…[Read more]

When I first read this, the word that popped into my head was endure. But really, that’s what 2017’s word should be. I feel like I spent this year just struggling to get through it to the end.

I think that my word for 2018 is going to be EPOCH. The definition of EPOCH is an event or a time marked by an event that begins a new period or d…[Read more]

Thanks Robin!!! Also want to wish you lots of luck with all your job/moving issues!!!

I’ll be praying that both of you have easy recoveries from y’all’s surgeries!

Today did not start well. I was very cold when I got up and couldn’t seem to get warm. Which leads to me dumping a mug of extremely hot coffee on myself when mu grip gave out on my left hand. (this has happened before but it’s been years). Luckily for me, I was holding…[Read more]

Present!  I am doing better … feeling healthy … food mostly back on track … exercise back on track … getting ready for Christmas, recovering from Thanksgiving and ready to be a Nikki -go to the gym everyday because you want a t-shirt – nag -because I care – so I hope your creeping crud has stepped aside!

Today was a not so good day. For some unknown reason, all my joints are aching and I didn’t sleep well last night. So I’m tired and I hurt. 😣

I didn’t get any packing on the house done, hopefully I can get some done tomorrow.

I did, however, get some stuff done that needed to be done. Like pay and mail the bills. I ended up having to go buy…[Read more]

I posted here earlier, but it seems to have disappeared!

Today started out really crappy. I went to run a short errand that should’ve taken a 15 minutes but ended up taking hours as my car battery decided to die on me.

But the rest of the day has turned out okay. My husband is fixing dinner so things are definitely looking up!

Breakfast was a…[Read more]

Today is still overcast and cold. While I hate to get out, since I didn’t go to the grocery store yesterday like I was going to, I have to go today.

Today will mainly be a day of catching up with my house work. Definitely not my favorite thing!

Breakfast was a hot protein shake

Lunch will be leftover roasted chicken and veggies

Dinner will be…[Read more]

It’s still cold and damp here, but at least the rain has stopped! Today is my support group meeting so I’m about to head to Temple. When I get home, I will be making a very quick trip to the grocery store. (I’m working on making hubby’s lunches healthier)

Breakfast was scrambled eggs and sausage

Lunch will be deli ham, cheese crisps and some…[Read more]

Meal planning is going really well. Tonight is leftover night which works out well for me as today is my support group meeting. Actually, at the moment, I’m in the process of getting ready to leave.

Ok, it’s been a sh** week for me. First, I finally have a diagnosis why my right hand is extremely weak and a significant amount of atrophy in the muscle (ongoing for many years progressively getting worse). The clinical term for it is cubital tunnel syndrome, which means the nerves in my elbow are being “pinched” . Ok, I thought great, now what…[Read more]
