Busy day yesterday...finished the sparkleballs...Jim finished the lights on the house and did the green stuff over the garage door. I picked up my ring...had it fixed and my watch with a new battery. Finished the mantel and nativity scene on the piano...green stuff on the top of the china cabinet. Oh, and really cleaned the attic! Lots of mouse turds...we've set traps all over the attic and garage to see if we've finally caught all the little buggers! I think so, but good to check.
Food wise: yesterday I was very good. Today I had a boiled egg for breakfast. Will try to stay mostly with low carbs. Today is Gail's birthday....yesterday I heard that an old friend in real estate died of pancreatic cancer.
More later...it's now 11 am.
worked for a long time on the computer researching new cameras....mine is starting to have problems. Thought that would be a good gift for me from the kids...they all go together each year. We've already purchased new luggage for Jim and will give it to the kids to wrap...
Cleaned all three bathrooms....then when shopping I purchased a bleach tab for each one so that Jim doesn't have to clean them while I'm gone....but he DOES have to make sure to flush all three of the once a day...otherwise it's hard on the rubber flapper inside. So I put reminders on the google calendar every day!
For lunch I ate a plate of the chicken strips with mustard. I'm working on finishing an old package before I leave. I accidentaly put it into the veg. drawer the other day instead of back into the freezer...found it the next day all defrosted....I popped it back into the freezer and now using the last of it. Fortunately, there wasn't much left when I did this.
Went to Best Buy to check on cameras and then to Costco. While there I also did some shopping and also stopped at Vons on the way home.
Home about 3 pm...Jim was just finishing up the backyard...moving all of the plants from the walls. He had been working on it since about 10 am...stopping ocassionally to help our neighbor Lius with lights.
Ate some cheese sticks and for dinner more chicken strips with some cottage cheese. For dessert I've made more jello & cool whip.
Heard from Laura and Joe's surgery has been moved to December 2nd....the day before I arrive home. I also decided to try the Earlybird on the Southwest flight...an extra $10 each way but allows me to get my boarding pass 36 hours before....that's twelve hours before people who don't pay the extra money. We'll see if it's worth it.
Starting to put stuff for my trip in the guest room. Hoping I can keep the big one light so that I can take it on board with me instead of checking it. It's just about 5:30 pm now...think I'll read some more of my book...
