On plan for the week, both food and exercise-wise. I’m having some knee issues, so cut back on walking and doing more intense weight lifting and tabata instead. And still trying to get in 64+ oz. of water a day!

So I’ve discovered recently that I have an irrational fear about traveling in foreign countries. Yes, I’ve done it, but always with responsible, trustworthy adults who spoke the native language! Thoughts of going alone (or with my husband) conjure up images of “Locked Up Abroad”.

BUT…I recently spent a long weekend in Canada and I’m…[Read more]

I picked a beautiful dark purple hydrangea for my desk. Love it!

oh, I noticed all right, just gave you a pass today.

I stopped by the store on my way home from my support group and they were having a sale on roses, making them the least expensive flowers there! 

(Is thankful nobody – especially @kperevosnik – didn’t call her out on skipping a day…originally this post said day 14 and it’s actually day 13!)

We have day lily’s in the yard.  I usually don’t pick them because my house is always a mess but today I will cut a few and put them in a pretty vase and put them on the mantel regardless of the rest of the house.  They will brighten my day.

I’m glad you had a good appointment with your surgeon! I think you got such a good report because you were really committed to those PT exercises (even when you didn’t feel like doing them). KUDOS!

Your meals sound yummy.

I have a similar bouquet!

Except they have almost all gone on to glory so I will be re-upping my flowers this evening!

Made it a point to go out early this morning with flowers being the main goal. I did have other small errands to do too. Anyway, got my flowers 1st thing and they are sitting on my kitchen table since I walk by it maybe a zillion times a day. Here’s a pic, but the color of the flowers are way brighter in person, especially the orange ones.

Checking in is on my mental list every day, but somehow I have been getting way too distracted, plus my allergies have been really bothering me lately as well as the humidity. Needless to say, it also involves sinus pain and coughing. I feel like I have been dragging this past week, not really being able to focus. Anyway, great appointment with my…[Read more]

I got 9 hours of sleep last night! that early bedtime was glorious!!

Flowers, huh. I can do that.

I know, I know! I haven’t been posting lately. Things have been somewhat crazy.

I have my support group meeting in Temple today which means a big chunk of time will be taken up. A trip to Sam’s while I’m there. (it’s across the highway from my meeting and a trip to the Sam’s in Waco takes as much if not more time to get to than the drive to…[Read more]

Because I know you well I feel comfortable saying this…

Oxygen mask, Blanche. Put yours on first! <3

Well..  I tried , but busy configuring house for 4 extra people, and busy brain.  Rest did not happen.
