Been a good day

Thursday, June 28, 2012

Such a good day. Good news flooding in. Had some investments pay off so a little cash flow was helpful. My daughter got some test results from the doctor. Good news/Bad News kind of thing. My daughter seems a little improved but still very sick. We need to see more doctors and try more things to see if we can get her well. But I am happy we have insurance, some savings now and hope for a better day.

  

More good ways to relieve my stress.

Thursday, June 07, 2012

Yesterday was a little less stressed, got my daughter to the doctors and on a new med. I finished off my mani/pedi, got donations delivered to the Pet pantry, it is a dog food pantry for folks who need help with pet supplies. Cashed a paycheck and I went shopping , always a good stress reliever. So while I can't always control what life throws at me I can control how I respond to it and I can still enjoy life. Today I already got a good walk in and I am thrilled to say my ankle feels great. Finally after many months I feel on the mend and ready to start taking walks again.

I have been a walker for a long time now and have had several injuries to deal with...once a cracked foot bone..and know how difficult it can be to get back in the swing after being laid up for awhile....but I know you can do it! I think you have found the secret to enjoying life...take the moments and enjoy what we can..... Report Inappropriate Comment

Best ways to handle my stress

Tuesday, June 05, 2012

I so enjoyed my day despite it being very stressful. I stayed home with my daughter since she was feeling very unwell. Had to talk to our lawyer today and had an argument with my Mother - in - law, something that hardly ever happens. So, I gardened , cleaning out some weeds and making a new bed for my hostas. Found a toad that my daughter got to kiss. I also baked and cooked my heart out. Low Fat banana bread, granola,and a wonderful chicken won ton dinner for my family. So I spent a lot of time with sharp tools in my hands hacking away at various things today, I liked that. Now I am going to kick back and give myself a mani/pedi and hope for a less stressful day tomorrow.

Whoa Weekend Recovery time

Monday, June 04, 2012

With the help of some wonderful volunteers we have built our Community Garden this Saturday. Home Depot staff was so helpful, the R&R landscapers gave us wonderful black, clean dirt for cost and no delivery fee. The grounds keeper at the Home where we built the raised beds lent us his tarp and wheel barrel. You know just when the news of the world gets me down, something like this happens and it renews my faith that people are basically good and decent. We will be sharing the produce with the residents at the Home and hopefully put on a lunch at the church.
