Must be something in the air! I didn’t have a nightmare, but went from sound asleep to wide awake about six times throughout the night. This has been a quiet day so far. And needs not to be. We (hubby and I) need to get outside and work on his car. We fixed one thing and several other problems popped up. We think that the new part we put on may be…[Read more]

I am really tired today. Hubby and I took a little drive yesterday and when we got home we stayed up way too late outside by our fire pit talking. It was definitely fun, but I’m getting too old to stay up all night!!

Anyway had a low carb mushroom and feta cheese casserole for breakfast. No energy right now to get my butt up off the couch to have…[Read more]

Day started out overcast and grey, but every once in a while the sun poked through (only for a few seconds at a time). So, I ran (well actually walked) out on my deck each time just to watch the clouds go by, but they weren’t moving much. Oh well!!

I didn’t actually go out to buy something today, but I do have an essential oil diffuser and am using it right now. The scent is called mental focus blend and has various mint oils in it. Very relaxing!!!

By the time I had even 10 minutes to myself today, it was 10;30 at night!  I did sit and enjoy a glass of wine, though.

My best friend was in town today and we sat outside this morning and again this afternoon and just watched the clouds.  This morning they were storm clouds but late this afternoon — wonderful fluffy clouds and beautiful blue skies!!! 🙂

I’m behind on check ins, or so it feels. I’m also behind on taking care of me according to the schedule. But, I’m doing some things that help offset that, so I’m not going to be mean with me… Today I was in the house and slept off and on. When I saw the challenge I took a minute to appreciate the outdoors.

Yesterday I did a good job, because it…[Read more]

Sat outside today with a large glass of crystal light and watched the clouds and relaxed for a bit…then picked some blackberries that grow in my yard. A really nice time!

Watching the clouds is one of my favorite pastimes in the summer. Most people think of rain when they think of Seattle, but we actually don’t get that much rain. We do, however, gets LOTS of cloudy skies – the city sits between two mountain ranges and the clouds settle in and stay a while. Today, they were gorge.

I watched the clouds go from high up and fluffy white to low and dark grey with lots of thunder and lightening. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a drop of rain!

Well… it was very cloudy here today so I did look at the clouds, but they didn’t go by and I wasn’t outside for very long.  I did watch the clouds while sitting outside yesterday 🙂

@nikki-massie, my list says that day 15 is sit outside and watch the clouds go by and day 16 is get yourself something fragrant. Is there a different list that I don’t have?

I always had the fear of making phone calls. Go figure, I was a secretary for 20 years and that was a big part of the job. It would take a bit of time to psych myself up to actually make the calls. I am getting a little better, but still prefer to communicate via email, online forums, etc.

I spent 1 hour laying on the couch with my eyes closed and listening to my favorite music.

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.

Today for ME, I spent my gift card from last night on clothes for YWM2017, window shopped at the local outlet mall (3+ hours on my feet, no wonder I crashed earlier & am know “drowsy”)
