Harriet, I KNOW I
am getting things done, but I don't FEEL like I'm getting things done. I mean, I'm checking things off on my lists, and I KNOW I'm moving forward, but I just don't feel it.
Today...
TA-DA --
* helped w/meal at church and attended funeral
* paid tv bill and mailed another thank you note
* paid credit card bill via phone
* cancelled another one of dh's mailings (arthritis cream this time)
* lay on the couch, watched it rain outside, and took a nap
Of course, I keep thinking about the laundry that really needs doing, and the bathrooms that really need cleaning, and I just have a big case of the donwannas...
DGS was supposed to have a ballgame tonight, but he came home from school with stomach distress, throwing up, and he slept all afternoon. When ds woke him up at 6:00 pm, he said he just didn't feel like going to the game, and then about 45 minutes later, we found out the games were cancelled because of rain.
Tomorrow, I will be taking dmom to the podiatrist, and I hope that goes okay. She really needs some relief from her foot pain... BUT she does NOT need to go through another surgery.
So glad dd12 had a better day,
LadyM! Amazing how things can change in 24 hours, isn't it? Also, (((HUGS))) re: dd47...
I hope I'm not doing wrong in taking dmom's $ for the funeral cost. I'm glad to have that paid for, and no debt to anyone except dmom... and I really had no choice, at least for a couple years. I
will have the money when a savings CD comes due, and I could have paid it (with interest) eventually on the OLD credit card... but once they locked that card, there was no more option to do that.
DMom actually said she would GIVE me the money, or I could look at it as a loan, if that made me feel better, or she could give my dbro an equal amount (from the recent sale of the lot on her property). I just hate that I am at this point of not having access to my own money or credit to cover something like that. For the past 45 years, I've never had to think about that. I don't mean we were wealthy, far from it, as evidenced by the leaking roof and shower stall... smh... BUT... we always paid our credit card in full and we didn't have any other debts.
So... here I am.
(((HUGS))) and prayers for
Rose and
Twins.
I need to get some steps in,
Nancy... I haven't been exercising the past few days.
Sounds like you have gotten a lot done today, too,
Cathy.
Hope you all have a good night! (You too,
Mystery! Just saw you popping in!)
Oh -- BTW -- Harriet -- after you mentioned Red Lobster closing all around your area... tonight's local news said ours was closing. The two closest to us. This is very upsetting to me. It is too expensive, but it is my favorite restaurant!
