Today is day one of Dry Feb and honestly, it’s not a problem. I will need to keep in the habits I restarted again today. I got up at 6:30 and walked on my treadmill for 1.5 episodes of WandaVision. I really like it so far. It is quirky and reminiscent of the Lucille Ball …
How has the first month of 2021 come and gone already?! of course this signifies that tomorrow I go Dry. I have decided to raise funds for Cancer Research and signed up to go dry(ish) for February which means I committed to 21 days alcohol free in the month. My son Jake is coming to …
I was up fairly early, rearranging things and organizing more of the kitchen. Missy did not want to go out in the snow at first. I had forgotten about the time change so the service was actually at noon my time. I contacted Mom and she couldn’t get connected at first so I set up …
I ran a few errands before work. First stop was to drop off a bunch of interior design books to Diane. She was very happy with them. Next stop was to pick up my newest Scentsy from my cousin Becky. I saw it in our Duck Fan group and asked if she could get it …
I had a lot ruminating today about Black Lives Matter but I am worn out and need to give the subject full attention. I will, randomly, soon.
Today was tough, I am not going to sugar coat it. I think I am doing okay and then a wave of heavy settles in. I have to concentrate that much harder and I check and recheck myself. And then I make a mistake. Rarely do I make one I can’t fix and I am …
so, I slept better with the machine but woke up with terrible foreboding, as if the string of loss was not over. I suspect it is really stress due to the fact I am about to make a huge life change, again, that will likely bring my income level down. That comes part and parcel …
I got a call yesterday from the place I get my sleep machine checked, etc. They were just doing a follow up to last time I was there. It suddenly occured to me that my ‘post nasal drip’ that may be causing the inflammation from my lungs up (no excuse for the parts below) could …
Back to work today – meh, paid the bills, earned my keep, all is right with the world. The first thing that truly made me smile was when Ashlée showed up with these: Before Jake moved away he dropped all his daughter’s things at her Mom’s house which overwhelmed her and she promptly took a …
There was nothing about this day that made me want to wake up. During the night every time I barely came out of REM sleep I was doing the same bookkeeping entry over and over and over so I kept going back and back to sleep. When I eventually woke up I had a message …
I had an alarm set to wake and be ready for my Zoom visit with the ABCs. Part of me didn’t want to as I wasn’t up to small talk and part of me wanted to as I needed uplifting things in my life. I am glad I did. We were fewer than last time …
I slept and every time my eyes opened I would say ‘no’ and fall asleep again until I finally felt like I had had enough sleep to survive the day. I got up and started to organize things and headed upstairs where Rosie made me a delicious poached egg breakfast which I always think of …
I didn’t sleep very well or long and in the brightness of the early morning I decided to just get out of bed. I didn’t feel well at all though and I just sat on the couch dejected after realizing I had forgotten the crochet hook. I brought my blanket to finish. Rosie managed to …
I wanted to share the beauty of the day, I awoke to a beautiful breakfast, after preparation of snacks i was on the road to head from Blind Bay to Lac La Hache. my mission for this journey was to meet a friend from Salt Spring Island who was bringing a box of paperwork from …
I woke up and tried to process the events of last evening as I got things ready at home and packed my car and proceeded to head out. I have taken banked overtime for the rest of the week in order to meet friends from Salt Spring Island in Lac La Hache BC as they …
I wanted to write about all the great things that happened in this day, the eve of my vacation time. I wanted to keep the great feeling I had after an exhausting day of payroll for so many companies that was improved by an invitation to the office for a bevie after work to celebrate …
I awoke too early after last night to the sound of all three of my children’s text tones. Seems we had a group text going to inform us all that poor Jake with his very loaded vehicle got away early to head west but got a flat tire not even three hours away outside Castlegar. …
I woke up early which was annoying. I like to get at least two hours extra on weekends to feel rested. I puttered and then decided it was sit and crochet time before it got too hot. Really shouldn’t have started a blanket when I did. I melt with it on my lap as I …
Today was topsy turvy, getting desk work done and then heading to the office to spend other people’s money, writing cheques for remittences etc. I enjoyed taking time to visit a bit at the office, as I was masked, it was good. I don’t want to make anyone nervous until we get this inflammation thing …
