Day 310

I sweated and groaned at physical therapy. Oh wow, how fast the tone goes with sitting. I will keep up with the daily need for core strength. It only takes twenty minutes. Lunch was meaningful. Michele and I have a connection and I enjoy her company plus the veggie burger was delicious. This morning I will get out and fill the green bin before the rain starts again. Later, Seaquake with Rosalie and Karen for a pint and lunch. Best way to end 2019.

Day 309

Sunday was quiet. No morning prayer. Lots of food and TV. Physical therapy at 10. I have not done my homework. I have walked or rebounded but no mat has hit the floor. I will start over and do better. I cleaned out a couple of upper kitchen cupboards and now the lower ones need attention. I do enjoy simplifying. Today I want to get a watering can or short hose for use in the greenhouse. I have carrots, beets, and spinach coming up.

Day 308

Michelle was alone at the CofC so I went for an hour so she could have a break. It was busy and I’m glad I did a good deed. I got a  haircut from the salon down the street. I like it. It’s what I asked for: a 1970’s shag with a curly top and a mane. I took the fat off the broth and filled the crockpot with every bean and pea in the drawer. Today is morning prayer and I may go.

Day 307

CofC was a bore and I came home early. I did get two good walks and  shiny new toilet! Now I want a new shower stall. And a new bedspread. It’s time for me to get anything I have wanted and put off getting. Today I’m going to find a haircut person. I have been putting that off too. The bean soup will start as soon as I get the ham out of the broth. The broth is my favorite part. Life is good.

Day 306

Yesterday I filled the green bin from the back yard. The ham bone is simmering and I can smell it! It will cook for another day to make bone broth and then Oh boy, bean soup. It’s my favorite part of the holiday meal. Today is CofC duty. I’m looking forward to going and being there for visitors questions. I use my resources and like it. Later, new toilet! Nothing wrong with the old one. I just want a new one. Onward and upward.

Day 305

Cold and dry today. After a restless night and headache, I want an active day. I want to fill the green bin with pruning and weeds. Hollie will come to collect leftovers and there is a lot of ham! I’m waiting for the bone to be uncovered and into the crockpot for bone broth and all the legumes I can find. My favorite part of holiday meals is the soup. Megan’s delicious pecan pie and ice cream with caramel sauce is on the menu.

Day 304

Today I’m feeling less fragile and I credit a very long night for it. I’m sorry to miss church, especially since I had invited Carrie. I asked Gayle to take care of her. From 5:30 PM until 6 AM, I slept. Karen’s massage helped but the struggle was too much. Today my head is clear and not hurting. Megan will come over at 10 to put the ham in the oven. Our menu is simple, roast vegetables and bone in ham. So, Merry Christmas
