I agree Hadassah ~ I think you need some rest and relaxation...

Hot day today ~ went to the pool for several hours. the girls had fun in the water. I chatted with several friends. Came home crispy and tired. I still need to finish the dinner dishes, have a shower, and make my bed (clean sheets).

Good Morning!
I am home today!

Want to write a letter
Make a soup receipe
Clean one cabinet in the kitchen
Clean out the frig (old things around)Maybe even the freezer, if not straighten it out
Finish up some cards

JDIs for today:

- DD's dr's appt
- clean kitchen
- switch bookcases
- take DD to gymnastics
- water indoor plants
- call jury duty in p.m. to see if I still have to go in tomorrow

There are a couple of other things I am wanting to do, like redoing the linen closet, but they can wait.

The weather is horrible again! Made the soup, worked on cards, so far.
Cleaned out the frig area, and one of the cabinets. Didn't write the letter. Worked on a couple more drawers in the ROTM.

Hey Diana!
Okay, like Bless said in the introductions thread, baby steps and just do it.

So here's where I'm gonna concentrate on getting ready for that High School Reunion. 40 years! GAHHHHHH! How can it be 40 years??!!

I already have the tickets, the hotel reservation, the flights. My husband is going with me.

I'd like to look my best, so that means getting more exercise and eating right. I'll post my JDI's here.

I'm really looking forward to the reunion - the rest of the alumni and I are hooking up on Facebook and it's been great catching up with some of my old friends AND some people I barely knew in high school. (I was a band nerd and mainly hung out with the other band kids.) One GOOD thing about a 40-year reunion - we're all just glad to see each other has survived. No one seems uptight about the shallow stuff.

SO good to have you back with us! I bet the reunion will be wonderful, and how nice you can visit before hand on Facebook.

My JDIs for today:

Desk Day
Clean out rest of the frig
Gather up baskets from around the house
Ceramics

Just had a few bills to pay this morning, so that is done, will do filing this afternoon.

Okay, so I did part of my exercise JDI for today, which was take a walk. I'm going to walk twice a day, morning and evening, and on the days I can't walk because of bad weathr, I'll do an aerobics exercise video.

I also will do some upper back, shoulder, and arm exercises while watching TV in the evening.

Plus, my diet plan, which I've already started, which is simply to eat sensibly.

Now, how do I do that line-thru thingy?

Go to Edit, (Sometimes it shuts down if you wait too long if you aren't a moderator) and there is an S on the top of the edit line. Use the left one, and click on it before your item, highlight the item and click on it after the highlight. Hope this is easy to understand. Leaving now. BBL

today is finally pay day. How the months fly if you live from payday topayday once a month. I want to work on this . Its a paradox. Next payday seems so far away and yet one is wishing the month away. This probably should be on the budget thread BUT I have to get a handle on my money . I could never be as dedicated as Bless(i should be we only have pensions.) I waste money and nobody can do this in todays world. biggest culprit not wanting to cook as much as I used to. The biggest sin because it is not really healthy food.that one takes out although I try to make smart choices. so much junk in most of it. Just because one gets older should not mean that eating and cooking healthy is waste of time.just the opposite in fact it turns out to be a valuable use of time.
and so once again my JDI,
Make a meal plan even that can be babysteps . Not for a month or a week . 2 days will work if I stick to it. I dint even have to do the constant shopping this would entail. DH loves a daily trip to the store. But he must keep to my list. He loves sales but it throws me off a plan. We will chat about this tonight.
Laundry already in.
Next is lunch no argument here. Cooking chicken for my bionic dog. Ann 39
