I’m sending you calming vibes, Maria. I know what that overwhelming stress can feel like. (((((HUGS)))))

Stress, stress, stress and more stress is the word for today. Up and going at 3:30 a.m. this morning to bring my mother-in-law in for her surgery (she had to be there by 5:45 a.m.). In the waiting room from 6:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. when the surgeon came out to let us know how she made out. I am ecstatic as the surgeon said everything went…[Read more]

Not really sure how to plan for this week since there are so many variables and too much uncertainty. The last couple of days have been rough. Yesterday we came home from our trip to North Carolina, soo a 3:30 a.m. wake up to get to the airport for a 7 a.m. flight, 2 1/2 hour ride after that to actually be home, pick up our 112 lb “baby” from my…[Read more]

Today is my daughter’s 16th birthday!
As such I have abandoned most attempts at scheduled eating (I usually live and die by my eating schedule).
We are going to PF Chang’s tonight. I am not terribly hungry so I may just have the lettuce wraps. They are mega high in sodium though so..I dunno.
Other than that I had a breakfast sandwich for…[Read more]

Late getting this posted, but better late than never!
So this week is all about my daughter’s Sweet 16. Now that it’s coming up, oddly, I feel better about everything. With each thing I check off my list (which means with everything I purchase lol) I feel more prepared. I’ll probably freak out a few more times throughout this process, but for now…[Read more]

It’s kinda lonely in here. Robin! Where are you? 🙂
I’m late posting my check-in mostly because today has been a super challenging day. I got awakened by my boyfriend at 4 a.m. that he needed to go to the ER. He came in late last night (after I was asleep) and apparently started violently vomiting afterward. This went on for several hours before…[Read more]

Please tell me I will survive this Sweet 16!
It’s not that anybody is pressuring me. My daughter is being great about everything. I have help.
It’s. This. Damn. ANXIETY! It’s making me avoid things. I really don’t need to be avoiding the party stuff. I need to get stuff done. But I seem to get overwhelmed so easily. I wish I were coping better…[Read more]

Mid-week sweep!
I’ve been so jealous of your Scotch Eggs. How’s the house coming along?

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]

Today…I took the bus. For the first time in years!
My car is in the shop until THURSDAY. Yes, folks. That’s how much stuff was wrong with it. Sigh.
It’s going to cost a lot but guess what? That’s one less thing to worry about heading into winter so I will deal with it!
I actually didn’t mind taking the bus. I didn’t have to pay attention to…[Read more]

I SLEPT LAST NIGHT!!!
And I slept well. Unfortunately my body was so starved for good sleep that this resulted in me oversleeping and I had to hustle to get the kid dropped to school on time. Bah! But I feel very energetic.
Today is the start of a busy week. It’s very meeting-ful. I don’t like meeting-ful weeks. It just feels like I am going…[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 has been good. I did my “happy thing” (food photography) after church and that felt good. I realized I like being in a hands-on creative space. It’s very calming for my mind. I’m going to get back into my project to update blog pics. That will do double duty as me prepping healthy meals, so it’s a win-win.
Eats for today haven’t been…[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]
