ALL-HELLO!!!!!!!-
I am SOOOOOOOOOO Happy to have temps under 90'sI just don't know what to do with myself!!!!!!- It brings out the nesting part of me!
I have the windows OPEN- first time in MONTHS and MONTHS!!!! All my windows open wide and letting in some FRESH sweet air!!!! I could keep 68 degree day anytime!!!!!- JUST SWEET! - It truly lifted my mood!!!!!- Gave my the push that this ungodly heat will end! (Sorry
TRIG) I am ready!!!!!! It has been unbearable.
I actually have my oven on and picked up fixing for chili later in the week. Got ribs going now!
TRIG - gave me a hankering for some ribs and slaw! -
Made some over bacon, and making boiled eggs for a tuna salad- yes I add those when I feel feisty!
I am loving this air!!!-
I did some bra shopping and have finally ditched the wire. I I can't stand the digging and scratching. I didn't think I would find on STRONG enough to hold this puppies up. But the plates 24 seemed to work and is comfortable- and not as ugly as I thought it would be!!!
There were on sale- I also am trying those new Hanes breathable undies- there were on sale too!!!- and splurged on a pair of silver earrings!!!! Whoot!!!!! (sorry if you are reading along Greg)
But comfort won out! I can tell I am getting older!
Ribs ready in about an hour! Fresh green beans, oven bacon, and coleslaw!!!!!- enough to last a few days and then I will make no bean chili!
I have about an hours worth of prep (work)- for tomorrow. But here I got a real break on Friday- so it evens out.
Yes I have a 2nd interview on Wed. for a Manager position and yes it would be a mostly office based position. They would give me an office- not a cube. But I look at it as a bigger cube with a door.
That would mean dressing up every day- and a possible move. I still have a few things I am waiting on- my Medical director is working like crazy to push through a position for me- it would be a work from home- my preference. Lots to consider and I am not going to make a rash and fast knee jerk reaction.
the best new however for today is this:
NO SMELL- It was something in the fridge. Thank god nothing dead behind the fridge. I "got" wherever it was. I think I know what it was.
It was coming from the freezer. I had beef bones for making broth that SMELLED so vile when I picked it up. It washed EVERTHING down- tossed ANYTHING that looked old and this morning bliss when I opened the fridge.
You know nasty smells just drive me crazy. I might be a little- not a lot cluttered, but I am not dirty. I am actually a bit on the clean compulsive side with the excepting of dust. - I dusted this weekend too!!!!!
My morticia has been satisfied!!!!- I would even doo one more day of gray and gloomy and cool. Unrelenting sun and heat is too much!
So today I was think about Fall and the task of going through my clothes and see what fits and what doesn't. I am up almost 8-9 pounds from this time last year!!!!! Sighhhhhhhhhh.
It has been a really really rough year.

NIC-
- Bummer on every second take and not get to see your smiling sweet face!!!!- oh well next time pencil me in!!!!
I am so glad your DS20 is adjusting. I love the fact he faced timed you on cooking lessons. Plus he has a convention oven. You are right that opens up WAY more options for him!!!!- Sounds like he just needs a few lessons and he is ready to go!!!!
I am hoping you don't have a cold!!!!!
-
What kind of chicken bacon casserole are you making? - YUM- do you find that you love your cooking best or other peoples, because it tastes different?
My Bella is also loving the weather. She is sitting at my feet, loving the smell of bacon and cool weather. PERFECT isn't it??!?!?!?!?
What does your upcoming week look like?
BLUE- - So sorry you are feeling punky with a cold! It comes with the weather and you are several weeks ahead of us!
I agree with you that when we are sick at for me I crave carbs. I am tired, no energy and feeling under the weather. Nothing is better than chicken soup, complete with noodles. But thankfully we aren't sick that often. I really wonder if the body doesn't NEED a few extra carbs when we are sick? I dunno.- The little jewish grandmothers can't be all wrong!!!
Feel better soon- what are you reading??????
TRIG- Sorry the hubby is still suffering with pretzel back! Sucks!
But it is still time to lace up those walking boots and go! You and
NIC - share the love of a beautiful hike! I used to go hiking all the time in Ohio. There is a ton of parks close to do that there! That is one of the things I miss about Ohio is the park systems there! Tons of open space. Atlanta requires a 30 minute or more drive- and the snakes down here freak me out!
Hopefully you have scoped out the parks in your area. I think though you live more in a country area!
Tons of open walking area. Beside which you as our Annie okay is not scared off by a little rattle snake- come with the land! LOLOLOLOLOL
I Am very proud of you being SO diligent about your food! Keep up the awesome work. And that is what it is too!!!! Work. But anything worth doing takes a minute for planning. I got a hankering for ribs too!!!!!- my dinner tonight!!!!!!
My OMAD!!!!!!!!-
LORI - Girl you just sound like you are in such a great place right now. Your arm is finally healing, you are getting back into a walking routine and your food is planned and doing just right for you! That is awesome!
I am sorry to hear about your DH brother and his medical issues. Ya know we just have to live every day ya know. We don't know. I see people younger than us in wheel chairs and amputees due to Diabetes and lifestyle . Not saying your BIL is caused by that. I am just saying we need to care for our bodies do what we can do and love everyday we are given. I am hoping the very best for him!!!!!
Keep us posted!!!!!!
----------------------------------------------------
Time for ribs- nothing ales to add- will work just a little then get my walk in!!!!
Sucking every bit of Sunday out of Sunday!!!!!!!
