How are you today?

I tackled the can of worms in my spare room craft and Pc room.
Tossed out a full bag of useless stuff I will never use again.
Rearranged the furniture and cleaned all the baseboards, vacuumed
like I had the devil on my tail. Something I been putting off for way too
long.
Wish I knew someone close who likes to decorate candles. I have stuff for that I would love to be shed of.
Since you have to use a blow dryer to apply the papers and embellishments I doubt it's a good idea to donate
to a place with kids or elderly who may burn themselves.
Any ideas? Easy to craft but the dryer and push pins, not so user friendly for some ages.
I've been cleaning out and took a pile of old pipes to the recycle. Then I started thinking, "What if I need a pipe? I'll have to go buy one! " Then I thought, " Have you needed a pipe in the last thirty years? " No 🙄
 
While I am not so hot health wise. Not many are at my age, I feel just fine. Was disappointed that it rained all day as I couldn't get out and get my walking in. Yesterday, while I was walking the grounds, I suddenly burst into tears as I missed my Marley so much walking with me. She'd sometimes get several steps ahead of me, stop, look back at me as if to say, " are you coming?" I'd smile and tell her I was right behind her, so off she'd scamper. Then repeat all the way through our walk. Gee, I miss that so.

@Lewkat

I can relate .. our bonds with our pets are so strong, and don't seem to lessen once they are no longer with us. There isn't a day that goes by, even after decades, that I don't think of our precious dogs. I miss them like it was just yesterday we had to let them go.

I hear you! Much the same here regarding the loss of my best girl. I too go into tears when someone talks about Suzy. Maybe Marley and Suzy are playing together! I'd like to think so.
 
I finally was able to go downstairs to get my mail. There was a lot and most of it went in the trash. This seems like it could be a good day but I hesitate to say it because this can change at any moment.

Last week I took an ambulance 🚑 to the ER. The paramedics were so nice !! Saw a doctor there and told him how my condition has been. He prescribed some steroids. I also got a shot of I don't know but I can look up the doctor's notes. Got an x ray of the areas where there has been a lot of pain.

Anyway hopefully things will improve for days ahead!

So, I'm going to see if this is truly a good day!
 
There are a couple of enchiladas leftover from Cinco de Mayo. I'm gonna eat them for breakfast and call them Siete de Mayo desayuno. Or would that be Desayuno Siete de Mayo? I dunno. I only know enough Spanish to be dangerous.

The promised rain happened. Yippee. It's not quite done yet but will be in the next few hours.

@Ruthanne Feeling better yet?
I have done that too with enchiladas and fajitas. I am addicted to Breakfast Burritos from El Monterey. They have a slight sauce
on them that keeps them moist and tasty. Only brand I buy for home. I go to breakfast with my neighbor and always order the
Denver Omelet, later for lunch I have to have my burrito. :LOL: Some things about California I just can't get out of my system.
 
Good nights sleep after a long heartfelt prayer that helped me process some things this morning.
Woke up refreshed and ready for the day filled with positive thoughts and feelings - "Thank You Lord!"
Even the squirrels are cooperating by staying off my feeder - so far!
Saw an Indigo Bunting come to feed, ohh those are gorgeous colored!
I have enough wonderful feelings to pass along if you need some? Have a Wonderful Day All!

I believe I may have this for the rest of my life since it involves my arthritis and nerves. Taking pain relief medicine.
 
Mexican potato soup for supper tonight...made by me. How did I get roped into it? I was bribed.

DD: I'll take you to Lowe's if you'll make Mexican potato soup for supper tonight.

Me: Give me a minute to put on my shoes.

It's a very cool and rainy day. Good day for soup. It's already on the stove because the longer it simmers, the better it is.
 
I'm feeling a bit drawn inward today. I woke up two hours too early and I'm tired so, maybe that has something to do with it.

Told boyfriend, who is sweet and understands, that I don't feel like hanging out today and want to be just with myself. -Well, until husband gets home, but he will understand too if I feel like staying downstairs by myself tonight.

The game we started last night, that I couldn't finish because I needed to get to bed, got spoiled for me when I signed onto social media. It's the playoffs; it's going to happen. I should have been more careful, I suppose.
 
Soup was good enough that there's none left over. It's a little brisk this morning, and the sun is shining.

There are maintenance things to accomplish in the garden this morning. Therefore, I will accomplish them. There are also the two dianthus that DD used to bribe me, and I need to plant them.
 
We did watch some hockey last night and I ended up having a good time and going to bed in a better mood. :)

Today is nice so far: pretty weather and most of my mandatories (which technically are not), are finished.

I'm relaxing, about to play a PC game, and will catch up with boyfriend a bit later this afternoon.

Good thoughts for you all today. 🤗
