Weekend Wrap Up...

Oops! I missed Feel Good Friday! 

That's because That Man and I escaped work early and had a lovely afternoon just goofing off. We went to lunch and then did some shopping. Came home and chilled. Very nice.  

Saturday night we went to dinner with friends. Well friends and family. We had a blast at a great little brewery along a creek and we scheduled our next dinner, which is awesome. 

Today we tackled a project we've been trying to get to for a very long time. Our housemates helped with the heavy lifting and we got things in shape in no time. I'm so happy it's done. 

Now I'm showered and ready to write. Dinner is marinating and we'll soon start cooking since the housemates have plans tonight. 

The writing is going. Slow, but steady. I'm watching Supernatural and getting to the pages. 

Also, the weather is gorgeous.

That is all... 

Behave!

Holiday Weekend Wrap Up

First off... September!! 

Okay...where to start? 

*My foot - I ended up on antibiotics and it's healing nicely now. 

*My other foot - symptoms are clearing and I'm left with residual irritation. (I also bought new shoes so that helps)

*The camper - repairs made and the grandkid slept in comfort and safety Friday night. 

*Lack of writing - no change. 

*The weekend - we had a blast at camp. I'm exhausted, but it was a very nice weekend. 

*My dog - a cyst burst on her front leg and now she has an open sore. K4 is cleaning it and keeping an eye on it, and we called the vet to get antibiotics. Especially after she decided to get into the creek. I know it's always something when they get to be her age. 

*Soccer - B's team tromped it Saturday, but lost Sunday. Sad times. 

That is all...

Behave! 

The Suck...

I'm not sure where my grumpiness is coming from but it might be because of...

My foot - I rammed it into our metal glider in the backyard last Tuesday. Let's just say it's red and swollen enough that I sent my doc a message. I have had my booster shot so no worries there, but it's irritating. 

My other foot - I guess it's plantar fasciitis or something like that. It hurts. I have a spiky ball I'm using, but... I guess we'll see. I do know it takes a long time to go away. 

The camper - We need to do some repairs before the next camp out. It's a known issue, but still irritating. Oh well... 

I'm tired... 

Lack of writing time. Now it's wearing on me. 

On the other hand, this weather is gorgeous. I'm looking forward to the long weekend. And hopefully some writing. 

I am pretty sure I have my conflicts figured out. So now I can get off my butt and actually make progress! 

That is all! 

Behave!

Weekend Wrap Up... On Monday...

That weekend sure went fast...

Absolutely zero writing done for me. I did brainstorm with K3 for a bit. I didn't even have a chance to turn my computer on at all, though I prepped to. It just never happened. 

We had the boys Saturday night. Little B fell out of bed. He doesn't remember. It was a very short fall and he didn't even wake up.  It was loud and I figured it would wake the whole house. But it didn't. He woke up at 5am and said, Oh hey, I'm awake. I told him only crazy people were awake at that time. But there we were. 

Mr. B had his first soccer game of the season. They whooped the other team badly. 18-0, with Mr. B making 6 of those goals. It was a fun game to watch. 

The windshield wiper part doesn't work. 

The Jeep parts came. 

I'm tired. 

That is all. 

Behave! 

Feel Good Friday!

For a week that wasn't supposed to be busy... Ha! 

I'm just glad it's over! I'm tired. 

I have a list, but I don't think you could call it all "Feel Good"...

1. Living through this week. It was a doozy! 

2. Working on the pages. Making progress, albeit slow progress. Still kinda stuck but feel like I'm going in the right direction. 

3. The weather. I really like not sweating! 

4. My dog being happy even though her lumps are growing and she struggles to get up sometimes. She's eating well, and even wants her ball thrown sometimes. As long as she's happy, I'm happy.

5. The windshield wiper part coming in. Nothing sucks more than having to manually work your wipers. 

6. Not-so-feel-good is waiting for the other part for the Jeep that was ordered first and was supposed to be delivered Wednesday. Now they're saying tomorrow. It spent four days at one hub in Kansas, which is irritating and annoying. 

7. Looking forward to hanging with my boys tomorrow night. 

8. Not-so-feel-good is missing someone I have no way to get ahold of. I think about them all the time and hope they are happy. I just want them to know that I love and miss them and hope they reach out soon. (Yes, this one is cryptic, but that's the best I can do...)

That's all I have at the moment. 

Behave! 

Weekend Wrap Up

Oh Sunday. Why do you have to come so soon and go so fast? 

It's raining here now. Thankfully. Though today is supposed to be the last hot day for at least a week and that's awesome! Fall is coming people! Yay!

Saturday we replaced the steering arm on our truck. It was bad--bad enough that when you held the wheel straight, it felt like you were floating. Or on a boat. Luckily there were no issues since currently that's the only reliable vehicle we have. It didn't take as long as I thought it would, but it still took up the day. 

Today has been shopping, laundry, cleaning, and getting organized. Yucky stuff, but necessary. 

I'm hitting the pages now, but will take a break in about an hour to make dinner with That Man. We're trying a new recipe so we'll see. I don't see how we can mess it up, so there's that. 

Hopefully I can get this world built and move on to conflicts so I don't feel so stupid and lost. 

This week is the normal kind of busy. Then next weekend we have the boys overnight Saturday, which should be fun. We have a ton of other stuff to do too--prepping for camp, working on the Jeep, and taking care of our ridiculous flower bed and all of its poison ivy. I did the vinegar/salt/dishsoap thing Friday night, but there have been zero results so far--and now it's raining, so... 

And that is all...

Behave!

Feel Good Friday!

Hi, Friday! I'm glad you're here! 

It was a week! And that Irritations post I did... well, I could add about a hundred more things to it. (like people assuming stuff and being cryptic) But I'm not going to go there because I'm trying to be positive. 

So, let's get to the Feel Good list, shall we?

1. A little extra sleep tomorrow. 

2. Getting the steering thingy fixed on our truck tomorrow. Well, hopefully. 

3. Easy dinners. 

4. Even though it was a crazy work week, it was okay. Things got done and done the right way which says a lot. 

5. Seeing old friends. 

6. My dog being happy. Her hips are bad, sometimes she leaks urine, and she has some significant tumor growths - like going from the size of an egg to the size of a tennis ball in a week - but she's happy. We already know how this ends and we're not ready for it. The goal is to keep her happy and pain free and we'll go from there. She's almost 12, so...

7. Writing this weekend. Hopefully I will overcome the hurdle I'm dealing with and make some serious progress. 

8. Air conditioning. Yeah. I said it. It hasn't been as hot as it was, but it's still too much. I am looking forward to cooler temps and sweatshirts. 

That's enough. I'm searching to find things to be "feel good" about, so I should stop before I go back into the irritations. Ha!

Behave!
