Re: Fab Friday PWYC

Well, I can't say it has been a "fab" Friday -- I wasted a lot of the day. Early morning stomach upset (probably due to late night binge eating) and lots of sinus congestion made it very tempting to lie on the couch all day -- and that's mostly what I did. DS called around 2:30 while he was in line to pick up dgrands, and we talked awhile. After that, I was inspired to do daily Bible reading AND finish vacuuming the main area of the house, plus master bedroom. I never did get a shower today...
but I plan to shower before bed -- so it will be easier to get out of the house for dgd's ballgame in the morning. At least this week, she does not play till 11:00 a.m., so we'll leave around 10:00 to get her there at 10:30.
Tomorrow night, ddil is making a roast (using some of my prize winnings of that quarter steer). (I still have not used any of it.) Tonight I am going to make some chocolate chip pecan cookies for DS (and myself
).
I can certainly relate to the problem of having a room that has become a dumping ground. My little computer room is about the same.
I am also nodding in agreement with blessed -- needing time to think about what I want to do in 2025. I don't really have a lot of hope for new things or any special events, but I feel like I am just in limbo until I get this biopsy over with and * praying * I get good results and can just put this whole thing behind me!
But I do want to have some sort of plan for the year... I still feel like I'm in limbo in this regard also. 9 months that I've been on my own now... and I still feel kinda "stuck" -- I mean, I'm totally unable to deal with dh's things, to change anything about the house, or anything of that nature -- although I would sell the truck if I could find someone who would give me a good offer.
Dcousin says $3500 is about the limit for him. Remember, the man who changes the oil told me he would ask $5000. Insurance office told me going price for this model is $4500-$5500... so I would really like to get at least $4000. Dcousin says he just can't do that right now. And I keep wondering what dh would say... he would want to get as much as he could... but he sometimes accused me of being "greedy" when we priced tickets on Seat Geek. I would like for dcousin to have it but do y'all know, he said he asked about getting it painted, and was told it would be $4500-$5000 just to PAINT it. (DS and I decided we had chosen the wrong professions.)
I sent a text to a friend who expressed interest, and he hasn't gotten back to me.
A third person, has also expressed interest, but I sent word via his mom (my bug lady) that cousin and other friend get first refusal.
So anyway... something of a "normal" weekend here. DGD is here tonight, she has a ballgame tomorrow, DGS will be here tomorrow, I'll eat supper with DS & family, church Sunday, and I plan to watch the inauguration and national championship game Monday -- and call about the scheduling for the biopsy, if they don't call me first Monday. I wonder if they will be open Monday -- MLK day, you know.
Hope you all have a great weekend!
