Raining Friday but we got in 2 walks...

Friday, June 08, 2012

Helen, I should take you advice and stay clear of garage sales too, but hey I need some fun... sil asked me last nite if I have my stuff ready for our own garage sale., .. I find it so difficult to part with my stuff, but really, the time has come.. It's not looking like I will be getting a teaching job close to home and I don't want to be in isolation again.
Today, g,d. and I took a walk to the community centre where they were supposed to have balloon rides, but it was cloudy and windy and they couldn't do them...Darn..... That would have been pretty cool. I had checked into them and they are very expensive, but if I had a bucket list, that would be one of the things I had on it.

Ex called today, talke to dd for about 45 min and asked if I would talk to him... we talked superficially for about 15 min... Apparently, I was paranoid about him reading my blogs because he claims he just got internet after 3 weeks.. strange.... since all libraries have computers, but I dont' know if there is a library where he's at or not...

Then we took a walk to our library's used book sale and then to the Comunity Days trade fair... not much there. expected to meet dd there but with construction she only got there in time to pick us up (it was raining) and grab supper and get g.s. back for his taeqwondo demo. He broke his first board with his foot!!! DD got it on video on her phone....

I work this weekend, going to be rainy and yucky anyway..

My DD and I went by the auction house on our way to Washington today and we discussed going to the auction tomorrow. They had a camper there that I thought she might be interested in but she thought it was too small. She has other plans and I don't need to drag anything else home. I am like you in that I hate to get rid of things. I think we are a product of our upbringing and the era we lived in. So sorry you didn't get to do or see the balloon rides. That would have been AWESOME!!! Glad you got a ride from you DD in the rain. Enjoy your weekend. Hope you are busy at work as it helps the time go faster.

Day 3 and a rest - till weekend

Wednesday, June 06, 2012

Forgot to mention yesterday that g.s. had his dental appt. His one front tooth is dead and will have to be root canaled and he also has an abscess on it, so needed antibiotics. But luckily, the other two may get away with fillings and she had a cancellation for Monday, so he'll get it done then. With insurance, it will be ~$1000. Sure could have been a lot worse...

Well, my body's tired and sore. I piddled around till about 1am and then couldn't sleep. I'd been thinking earlier that I wasn't having any trouble sleeping lately... and got it on my mind..
Speaking of yummy dinners, I should go check my freezer and see what I have already prepared, though i did give dd a bag of chicken breasts. The salad I made yesterday was very good too. No one else tried it.
back later, gotta eat and go to work

Well, today went a little easier, small drug order and not busy. So, we got to swiffer all the drugs and the shelves... That took us till 15 to 6 and we only have 4 sets of shelves to get done. Never a dull moment..haha.. Off from that job now till Tuesday, but will work S& S at my other job. I have to babysit all 3 kids on Friday while their mother gets her hair done, the birthday gift I gave her for April..... they rescheduled from Saturday.

Anyway, came home and dd had made the SP garlic and brown sugar chicken breast and the salad I made yesterday and then when talking to my sis, she had corn, and it reminded me I had a corn on the cob in the fridge, so there was my carb. worked out well.

I really should go for a walk, but I don't think I will...
. maybe I should do an exercise video, my dd said she did an 80 min. taebo today and she's never sweat so much
I broker my new nail at work today and stopped on my way home and got it fixed...Yay!!! They're too pretty to lose after only one week. .. which reminds me I told my sis I would send her a pic of them...

So glad that your GS's teeth are going to get fixed, but really sorry about the abscess. Did they start his antibiotics so they can do his dental work on Monday. A tooth with an abscess can't be numbed according to my dentist and my DH. Enjoy the kids tomorrow...what a great birthday gift!!! Sounds like a yummy dinner. Hope you got your exercise done...whatever you decided to do. WAY TO GO on getting your nail fixed. Hope you sent that picture to your sister. May God bless you with some restful sleep tonight. Sweet dreams. Report Inappropriate Comment

Day 2 at work

Tuesday, June 05, 2012

Well, my body wanted to stay in bed today, but I got up around 9:30 and ate blueberries pancakes. Watched, changed and dressed baby Mya while dd got her nails done and dropped her and g.s. off at the nail shop so I could go to work. We were all finished our work today by 3:30 and then it was busy work, emptied garbage, wiped counters, vacuumed. Tired...

Came home and had perogies, scallops. barley homemade soup, strawberries & dream whip. Raining out, so we don't get a walk tonite. I will have to get my pedometer and see what kind of steps I am getting in a day of working. in a very confined space, but pretty much on my feet all day. Not used to that!

Days go slower when you're not busy..

1st Day of work

Monday, June 04, 2012

Who knew there could be so much to learn and do in 6 hrs? Sure this may seem easy in a couple weeks, but I felt like my head was going to explode today...

Stripped and made bed and washed sheets this am. Went to library and finished some paperwork and got it mailed off and renewed books. and Worked. Luckily came home and dd had made spaghetti, so supper was ready.
Well, g.s. wants me to go for a walk, so maybe I will be back later and maybe I won't...(timed it, about 1/2 hr. to walk to work.... so our walk was a good hour and we stopped at the swings for a relaxing treat too) And when we got home dd had made us some "YoNana" ice cream. Yu and only 84 calories.

I'm so tired...

I thought that my day was full-yours was very productive. Don't worry, it is a full moon and that makes everything a bit more tense.,,, Report Inappropriate Comment
