Hi everyone! I'm posting early because I am meeting my mum for breakfast soon ... then picking up a few groceries and iced tea without the ice ... fun stuff! No real other plans for the day ... just what I like! I am jealous of those of you who can garden and keep plants and flowers alive ... it's not a skill I have ... I can't grow anything or keep anything alive ... my patio will be flower free this summer! This is what I posted on Facebook today ... I have been doing quite a bit of shopping this week ... some at the mall with my dd's and a bunch online ... I hate the mall but I love online shopping! Dinner tonight will probably be something from Hello Fresh as my box gets delivered today ... unless I have a date. What are your plans today? What is on your menu tonight? Have a relaxing Sunday everybody!

Typical Sunday here. Church this morning, which took a bit longer than usual as our priest decided to rearrange things in the chapel after Mass. After lunch, DH went to work and I went for a walk then spent a bit of time scrapbooking.
Dinner tonight will be tacos, which DH will organise once he gets home.

I have to help my friend with her big Alzheimer’s fundraising event today. She lost both of her uncles to this disease so this is close to her heart. Last year I think she raised $5000 we’re hoping for more than that this year which I think she’s already there. so I’m not sure what’s for dinner maybe a pizza

Happy Sunday! It looks beautiful out, so I am hopeful we'll get things cleaned up and a good amount planted. We plan to cookout later so grilled burgers and hot dogs are on the menu and I'm excited. I found low carb buns so we'll see how cardboard-y they are. Pretty thrilled to find them though!
That's the plan now...will check in later. Have a wonderful day!

Yesterday's garage sale was a huge success despite the rain off and on all day! We made over $600 and DH sold 7 of his paintings. (He priced them between $20 and $30 dollars.) He sold his pipe collection (about 20 of them) that he had collected while visiting his parents when they were living in Holland. Also a vintage Nikon film camera and his collection of ball markers from various US Opens he had attended over the years. The reason we had the garage sale was to get rid of our old nook table and it didn't sell. Many people used Venmo which was a kick for me! We were exhausted and slept almost 9 hours last night! scrapmaven, I'm sorry you have a migraine. I hope it goes away soon. Dinner is whatever I decide when I hit Raley's.

leftovers for dinner here or possibly we'll eat out - we're headed to the city for DD16's Girl Scout meeting- it's 2-5 this time so we'll either grab something there or eat leftovers when we get home - I know which one she's lobbying for. Glad that the sale went well cadoodlebug - sorry about the table not selling. scrapmaven - feel better soon

Thank you ladies. cadoodlebug, nice moolah. I hope you'll use it for something fun or an experience that you both enjoy. destined2bmom, cuddles from our furry friends are the absolute best.

cadoodlebug, nice moolah. I hope you'll use it for something fun or an experience that you both enjoy. I told DH he could use it towards a new set of golf clubs. He sold so many of his things that were near and dear to his heart but he decided there was no reason to hang onto them at this stage in our lives.

I shouldn’t even bother posting. Dinner = rechauffe. Tomorrow is my second chemo treatment. Dinner = rechauffe or maybe takeout. scrapmaven, I’m sorry about your migraine. Hope you feel better fast. cadoodlebug, nice to hear you did so well at your yard sale. DH is under-selling his paintings at that price! Hope you can unload the table somewhere. Or might it be useful in the garage or something? I still have an awful oak coffee table from the ’80s (but boy, I loved it when I bought it) in my garage holding things that don’t need to be sitting on the ground. This seems to be my day for eye rolling.

Hi everyone! Well the rain is back here - short lived day of sun yesterday. We went out for breakfast this morning for an early mother's day celebration with my ds & his gf, and my brother & my mom because my brother is going to be at Disney next weekend. So between dinner out last night & breakfast this morning I've been spoiled. I got my free Starbucks drink after breakfast, and now chilling out watching movies. DH is making us a steak dinner tonight. And my mom made me my favourite carrot cake for dessert. leannec - I always ask for light ice in my starbucks iced tea too. They put so much ice in normally, it's really only half a drink! I had no idea they were going to start charging extra though. Seems like a rip off! christine58 that's so great you guys are involved like that. It's such a horrible disease!! scrapmaven I hope you feel better soon! cadoodlebug - great haul at the yard sale! Fun for your dh to get new clubs!

so I have done nothing all day and dh is leaving tomorrow to drive north.
thai takeout tonight too!! I watched the documentary on pbs about the formation of the coronation choir.. and that was quite charming. they gathered all sorts of choirs from all over great britain and 300 people sang together at the concert.

DH and I took a trip into the city this morning. Lately we haven’t been going anywhere together so someone is home with the dog. However, Walker is crate trained and doesn’t mind being in it, so off we went. Kinda sad when we both were excited to get out and run some errands together!
The weather was gorgeous this weekend and we spent most of it outside. We got our e-bikes out of the basement and DH got them all ready for the maiden voyage. We will go for a ride this week if the weather is nice.
DH’s friend is out of the hospital and plans to work tomorrow (probably a bad decision). DH is on standby to fill in if he needs to this week.
Hopefully it will be a quiet week for us. Walker has a vet appt tomorrow for a weigh in and his next heart worm dose. Wednesday I have an abdominal ultrasound. My dad died of an aortic abdominal aneurysm so this ultrasound is just a preventative measure as they are hereditary.
Supper tonight was grilled chicken and a variety of salads from grocery store deli.
Have a great week everyone.

Hi so today is just ok. I made cookie dough late last night (without eggs) so I could eat it. I made it keto because I was afraid to make regular🤦🏼♀️. It wasn’t good. I think I will just dispose of it. Today my animal ate my shoe I need to wear to a funeral next Saturday and they were a gift from the kids. He was good the last time we went out but he still needs to be crated when we go out.
Dinner tonight is all the food we didn’t eat last night. There will be schnitzel, steamed spinach, and tomatoes. We ate the mac n cheese last night.
It’s nice outside but I still need a jacket. This is very weird for us.

I made it keto because I was afraid to make regular🤦🏼♀️. Please don't take this the wrong way but I think you have some sort of eating disorder and I am worried about you! You are super focused on calories and what you put in your mouth ... you weigh yourself every day and what the scale says greatly affects you ... Speak to your doctor ... maybe some therapy would help? Hugs to you!

We can only handle one problem at a time. I am seeing my GP this week and psych in a couple of weeks. I have this noise in my head that’s a war and it doesn’t help I love being thin.
