Friday

 Yesterday I stopped at the legion and I was able to talk about Jim without crying. A positive step. Last night I decided that I would do some housework today. I washed my bedding and remade the bed. A shower tonight and then curling up in a clean bed…..Nothing better! I  cleaned three drawers and one cupboard in the kitchen. None of which you can see so the kitchen still looks messy☹️.  Lucky and I went for a couple of walks today. It was really nice out, but the wind came up this afternoon. I think I am in for the day now.  I made a pizza for my “lupper”  (lunch/supper). I used more tomato and cheese and less meat than my last one. It was quite good, but I think I might reduce the cheese a little bit next time. Tomorrow it will be chicken thighs. If I don’t plan I just scrounge junk food. I’m still waiting for a final decision from autopac. The adjuster recommended writing the car off, but then he has to send his report to another department that reviews it and if they agree they make me an offer. If they disagree I will be waiting months to get it fixed. It’s amazing the damage one deer can do. Hopefully I can get it settled soon. My neighbour has offered to do the bargaining with them if they make me an offer. He has already researched the value of my car on line so he is prepared. I want enough to pay off what I owe and get a dependable used car. Keep your fingers crossed.

The energy-sucking garage sale panic is over.

  We both made it through the day without faltering, very much looking forward to a good nap once things were over.  But then were so high couldn't sleep.  Both Loren and Amber were there to help us, with Amber stopping at Tim's for breakfast on her way.   I was up and immediately dressed at 7:00 (Omg!  It even hurts to be able to say that)  Then off in the car to set up 5 signs.  Of course, each stop one has to find a place to park, get out of the car, place the sign, and reverse the process.  That finished, I parked in the mall across the way, pulled my walker out of the car, and trudged off home.  I was so glad to have the walker during the day, mainly because the float was hidden in the small zipper compartment in the walker and I sat on it most of the day.  We moved the patio table and umbrella to the front yard.  Amber and I spent most of the day there, while Loren and Dave spent their time in the garage, until later in t...

Baking

  Yesterday I forgot to mention that I've become concerned about how much money we've been spending on muffins.  So I decided to try baking them on my own.  We got rid of all my baking pans at the garage sale so had to make a trip to Dollarama for a new one.  It's silicone and soft and wiggly, but also dishwasher safe.  I've made some Blueberry muffins that didn't rise very well.  Turned out the baking powder was over a year past it's "best before" date.  Went out and bought more. I've found recipes on-line for Banana Chocolate Chip, Chocolate, and another Blueberry that uses frozen berries rather than thawed--great--as all of mine are Frozen.  I'm also going to look for a recipe for Bran, but not today.

Yes. It is Sunday again

  Time keeps passing. Faster and faster every day. We had freezing rain last night and this morning but it seems to have stopped for now, but that damp chill goes right through me!  Lucky and Ally are both sleeping so is almost like having time to myself. I did walk Lucky this morning but we stayed off the road. We went around the trail cause it wasn’t icy. Less dangerous for both of us. I snuggled down this weekend but I will have to venture out tomorrow.  Hopefully the roads will be clear. They don’t look bad right now so it is promising. I get my flu shot on Wednesday and Ally has a vet appointment on Friday. And I’m going to call for a lawyer appointment tomorrow.  Chloe is going to have her “old people” birthday party on the 18th. Kik and I will go together. And I told Kik I would go to Winnipeg with her on the 14th. I hate the time change. I was awake very early this morning, even though Lucky stayed sleeping until 6:30!  It’s just going to be an extra lon...
