Good Saturday Morning!
Lori- You are the early bird this morning waiting for your honey! Glad are feeling a bit better today! I sure hear you on crab creep! It is a real thing! I also ditched them for the sake of my knees. Sugar feeds pain! Lordy knows I have had my share of that.
Urghhhhh On deer meat. I just don't know how you mask
that taste. I have a mental issue too with-it being Bambi!
- But yet I can eat an entire cow go figure!
Nice of you to SHARE IT! HA
I know you and hubby will have a ton to catch up on when he gets home. No wait, let me rephrase that. Your hubby will want to tell you all about it in multiple ways!
Nic- Thanks for checking in! Been thinking about you! You sure have been in a whirlwind!
I am still stunned your mom agreed to move to MD from Atlanta by herself. What about her husband? That would not fly with my mom. If I was married, I don't know if I would be ok with it. How did she agree to it? Goodness a lot to think about. You will certainly have your hands full even with an Assisted Living. I am hoping all the best for your family. An adjustment for all of you.
I agree there are seasons for being strict food rules. One needs to be mentally ready for it. We all know after all this that the biggest battle is not the fork. It is between our two ears. Our thinking about it. I agree that to have loose goals at this point. There will be a season you are ready to come back to it. I think the goals you have are very reasonable for time of year. It's a hard time for sure!
How are your "kids"? I still think it is fun that your "kids" were literally my neighbors for a minute! They shop at Wegmans? What a place that is!
Have you put up any trees yet? LOL
Trig- What did ya do yesterday? It sure got cold in a flash! I could tell when that front blew in! Do you like chicken? I know you love your ribs! That actually sounds so good about now! YUM
How is that little meat house down the street for prices? Do they sell uncooked meat too?
Stay warm! I got my flannel out!!!!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------
Boy it went from 80 degrees to 50 in hours! I developed a headache when it blew in. I ended up just going to bed about 8 last night!!!! Slept until the neighbors upstairs came banging in at 1 am. I am so seriously over apt living. Went back to sleep finally! Slept in until 730!
I am getting that little condo! I wished I could buy it. MEH maybe not buy it just yet. I hinted at that to the owner, and she said- NOT! LOLOL It was in jest, sorta. Anyway, she called me last night. They are going to replace the flooring in it before I move in. She wanted to know if I wanted a "wood look" flooring or new carpet.
I said I wanted bare floors in the living room and dining and kitchen. Carpet in the bedrooms. YAY!
So, in a nutshell. It is super cute. 2bed/2bath, large living room with wood burning fireplace. It runs on gas heat! Gas stove! Nice size kitchen that has a small dining room off of it. The dining room opens with French doors to a private patio. The patio has a pebble walkway in the back. It is very private. It is a double. Nobody upstairs stomping on the ceiling. It can't happen soon enough. January.
Add that to the fact I made a budget for myself, and it came in 400.00 UNDER monthly budget! HUGE!
I absolutely love my job. You all have never seen that out of me! Love working from home. It is the perfect balance of seeing patients, physicians and getting out and then going back home to chart! Granted I traded a huge salary for it= priceless! I truly never want to schlep the hallways of a hospital anymore, EVER!
WOE- Working at it. Still sitting at my low. You know if I can get to Jan and still be sitting in the upper 70's I will take it. Last year at this time I was over 200! WAY over 200.
Jan. to reboot in the 70's with a goal of 50's is doable. Pass the steak!
Speaking of........ So, I am going to go to
my mothers for Thanksgiving. My kids are going to see their dad and his wife. So yeah....... Anyway, my mother's husband asks me if I wanted turkey or Prime Rib? Or you KIDDING?!?!?!?
Like that is EVEN a question?!?!?!?!? gobble NOT!
So I will go there and come back on Sunday. I wanted to stay long enough to see the Buckeyes play MI. I don't have cable here! I am not missing that game!
I am looking forward to the holidays this year! ALL OF IT! I am getting used to my tiny apt sized tree. It glitters with all the lights I put on it! I put up garland too that have lights. So it is festive in here. There is a huge 70 in TV in here. I go to You Tube and put the "Fireplace" on! How funny is that!
I can tell the coffee has kicked in. I am chatty! That and 10 hours of sleep! HAHAHA.
Going to the range with my DS today. I keep saying I will go with him. He has every firearm anybody would want to try out. I told him to bring several. Today is pistol day. Another time we will do "long" targets.
Who knows I might meet my "next" husband at the range! LOLOL
Gross out today. Gray and raining. Bright and festive in here though.
Okay enough dribble from me!
Later gators.
