Good morning Jennifer and everyone.
Not sure what today'll hold. We might do something but I'm hoping to stay home. It'll depend on my mom. We might go to the thrift store since we'll be unable to go tomorrow as well have the kids. They are out for a 4 day weekend. Riley will stay the night sometime and Randall might too. Pumpkins are at a great price so we got them all one to carve. Oh I forget that so we'll have to go get some of the tools to do it.
Still no word on an orthopedic surgeon. I sent in a message to see what's up. Hopefully it'll light a bit of a fire to it. I can hope right?
QOTD: freezing. Sometimes at a higher temp and it's wet.
food is undecided.
pics of what I donated to the rescue and a box top I found at the thrift store.
Happy Friday-Eve menuer's. What a chilly morning here in CT. I harvested a bunch of the herbs and figured out what plants I will be covering tonight. I can't believe they are predicting a freeze tonight. Not even a frost, but a freeze. The weatherman said the temps in parts of Northern CT will be in the 20's. I do hope this doesn't mean we will be having a bad Winter.
Running out in a little bit to the get stuff for the luncheon today. Other than that not much going on a work. The outage is still going well.
QOTD: At what outside temperature do you turn the heat on? We usually don't put the heat on unless the outside temp stays at 45 degrees for at least 24 hours. I know it sounds crazy, but our house was originally heated by electric and is super insulated so it holds heat in well even if it is cold out.
B: coffee and protein shake
L: cold cut sandwiches
D: leftover pot roast
Irvin is a great grandpa again. He now has two great granddaughters.
Not sure if we will get to the Y tonight since I have a bunch of stuff to cover and harvest.
Have a great day everyone!!!
Good Morning !
Today is THE DAY when God decides do I get to stay in NY City's beautifulest apartment ?
Of course Im jumping the gun but there are upgrades Im dying to make - real hardwood floors, marble windowsills so I can leave windows cracked for air and not have to rush home for rain, high quality ceiling trim and wall paint , and a massaging jacuzzi tub ! Not to mention white glass and gloss kitchen cabinet doors I mostly already own ...
Whaddaya think ?
Oh food - midnite snack ( otherwise was too hungry to sleep)
commercial clam chowder mixed w chicken soup ( 1/2 cup )
sheperds pie ( again commercial 8 grams fat per serving ) hooked up w fresh peas, butter buds.
herbal tea
b- coffee w ff milk truvia
egg salad on garlic sourdough bread
potato salad
leftover soup heated up
l- dk
d-dk but have TONS of food in fridge n freezer
I'm a food hoarder unfortunately - wont touch anything I dont crave and ultimately eat very little which leaves a LOT of leftovers ![]()
Landlord will probably throw me out when I get the Jacuzzi tub delivered but check this out ! Isnt it amazing ( and beautiful ? )
Holy cow ! ![]()
I take Buproprion ( forever) to exercise , breathe better and often just to function ( get several strengths prescribed ) also topiramate ( for anxiety supposedly ) and recently Naltrexone ( a true magic pill for stopping alcohol cravings I find) ......
Maybe its no wonder I maintain my new weight no prob ? ![]()
Wow, sounds like a rough start! I totally get the frustration--people driving like maniacs in bad weather is terrifying. I'm also super cautious when it rains or snows; better to arrive late than not at all.





Got most car-bound food in refrigerator thank God - staying ( illegally of course ) in what I pray will be my new forever apartment .
Best views in NY - but there R drawbacks - pollution , no trees or parks ( South Bronx is essentially a wasteland oxygen and healthy food wise
)
Please wish me luck tomorrow w signing lease.
b- Stopped by a Hamptons . Egg whites, sausage patty, coffee w skim milk, tea w skim milk n sweetener in thermos .... bits of oatmeal and blueberry waffle plan to munch on them again tomorrow morning. Half banana
s- cereal dry in car
l- nothing
d- bought caribbean food but didnt eat it except a few bites of chicken
herbal tea
bit of wine w sugar free probiotic soda

QOTD- I usually do, but I'm not sure about this year. Still in too much pain.
I see the ortho today, not sure there is anything he can do. I quit the muscle relaxers since I felt that all they do is make me sleepy.
I bought another heating pad, so now I have one at my desk. I'm not sure if it helps but it's nice to have.
I got my sheets hung outside yesterday, and made it to Costco for gas. This is the first time I've driven since the fall, it seemed to go OK, I need to drive myself to the Dr this afternoon. My line drying days are at an end I'm afraid the rains are coming.
Have a great day everyone!

Oh I love it!
Good mornin y'all.
we are taking a donation of things I've made to the rescue that took in Momma. They're going to auction them off they said. I may not be able to donate money much but I can do that!
Other than that not much is happening today, I'm feeling mighty blah. I have no gumption. I still need to clean my closet but even the thought of it overwhelms me. Blah.
QOTD: yup...my mom goes all out.
B: eggs, cheese and coffee
L: soup
D: protein undecideds but roasted broccoli and cauliflower
