I think that I have decided - at least during the week, that I will write this from my work computer. For one, it's easier to type sitting at the desk, plus a bigger screen, and a detached keyboard. It's just easier. With watching my time in the mornings, and times that I do fall back to sleep, it's just easier not to put the stress on me to type anything. But, alas, the morning is also getting away from me so I need to 'get on it', right?
Yesterday was a good day. I enjoyed my lunch with my youngest son and his family. I laughed - he gave me a cup that says "Not my monkey, not my circus, but I definitely know all the clowns! Cute! Plus he came me a box of fudge they bought when they went to Indiana last year (had in his freezer) from Uranus. And I'll leave that there. I felt my spaghetti had too much tomato taste, but it wasn't bad. Still have lots and I would suggest for anyone wanting a bag that I have put in the freezer.... either add red pepper flakes or cook up a batch of Italian sausage and throw in with it. In fact, I think I have some in the freezer and next time I take out a bag (probably in a month after two days of eating it right now), I may just do that. It was good, and the longer it sets the better the flavors will meld, but in tripling the batch, I probably should have cut back on some of the sauce. Still, it was good.
I met with Sue this morning for our 1:1 monthly call - and we were laughing cause she is in the process of telling her direct reports she is retiring and this was 'my call'. I really will miss her, as you know. But, I am so happy for her. Depending on who replaces Brett - who is now completely gone - and Sue in a few months - well, I don't know what I'm going to do just right now.
I'm finally starting to feel better which is a great plus for me. Hubby is now doing the coughing routine so I've been giving him Allegra like I was having to take. He sees Dr. Mark on Wednesday for a regular visit so I'm sure Dr. Mark will prescribe for him some of what he prescribed for me. Didn't this what I had was contagious - but perhaps it was. I tried to be careful. My antibiotics are now all taken; no longer need the Afrin nasal spray - still taking the Breo inhaler for now until I see Dr. Mark and ask him if I need to stop. Still taking the Allegra so that I can stop this mucus stuff - dry it up. It's for allergies so I'm hoping it will. But at least I feel like I am coming more alive, so that is a good thing. Still have my occasional cough, but am doing much better.
I have a few errands I need to do after I get off work this afternoon. Have a bag of coffee grounds I want to drop off at a granddaughter's for her garden - I picked it up at Starbucks Saturday. May take her a bag of spaghetti sauce. Tell her to add to it. :-) Need to return some things to Amazon so will be making a trip to Staples to drop them off. My daughter called yesterday and asked if I had my camera up yet (no) so told me she had arranged with her daughter to have her husband come over tonight to hang it up. I text'd my granddaughter this morning to hold off a week since Grandpa was sick. There is no rush getting the cameras up. If it was, I'd have someone do it - but there isn't. Those eggs won't hatch until we are gone on Jailbreak - you just watch!
Speaking of - 17 more days until Jailbreak Getaway!! I decided to take the 22nd off as it is hubby's birthday and will take him to breakfast or lunch - he does love to eat. Daughter will be flying in that afternoon so perhaps we can do dinner as well. I don't care. It's his birthday, he will be 89, and since I will be gone for nearly 4 days, I need to let him have his day, right?
I start back to the gym tomorrow with Morgan. I'm letting her change up my schedule as she is trying to eliminate nights now. Bad for me, but good for her. 7:30AM in the morning; then 1PM on Thursday. Yeah, I'll have to take off work more than an hour - but I can make it up so not a big deal. I chose times that Sue would be busy. She doesn't care, anyway. Of course on Wednesday I will be gone about 3 hours with hubby to see Dr. Mark - 50 minutes there, an hour visit, 50 minutes back. I may have to retire after Sue does just so I can have the time to take him to his doctor appointments! Yes, I have to let hubby drive to his gym appointments, which he did cancel for this week. I can't take all that time off work. When/if I ever - I retire, I can go to the gym and get some cardio in. If I want. Or I can stay home and enjoy the alone time. Which actually sounds like more fun to me, if you know what I mean.
Well, I've rambled on enough this morning and I'm sure you are tired of reading. I'll get in sync soon - but for now - hope that you have an amazing day!
Blessings!
