monday

 If men disappeared from the planet for a year what would you do?

1. go to all the national parks by myself, and camp at them.

2. take a walk every night and early every morning

3. leave my home windows open

4. walk through parking lots without my car key held between my fingers to be used as a weapon

5. hike trails by myself

6. sleep in a hammock in my backyard.

7. sleep on the beach at night.

8. stop telling my daughter to be aware of her surroundings and for her to call me when she gets home at night so that i know she made it home safely.

9. do more star gazing

Wednesday

 I'm not very good at posting enough/more often.

I'm sorry for it. 

Yesterday I mailed a bunch of gifts to my family in Colorado. I can't believe how expensive it is and I sure do hope I had it all packaged so that nothing breaks.

I also finished 99% of my Christmas shopping. I plan on wrapping it all today. I also have to go to a nurses meeting this evening. It's silly to have a meeting during this pandemic. 

Woody is in the loft sleeping and Mr Bojangles is next to me in bed. He's bathing.

We got a nice dusting of snow early this morning and now it's raining.

I had a bacon sandwich for breakfast and I bought a pre packaged Mediterranean salad for supper.

My younger sister, also a nurse, and her husband both have Covid. My friend Erin has Covid. All of them are doing ok for the most part.

Staff and patients at my work will be getting the vaccine very soon.

I'm a little worried about taking it. 

They can preach how safe it is all they want but in my mind they're a bunch of greedy bastards whose main concern is making money........even at the expense of a persons safety and well being.


That's all.

Have a nice week.

Sunday

 It's been a really nice calm and lazy Sunday.

I got up early and folded two loads of laundry, and threw a load in the wash. Then I filled the crockpot with all the ingredients for home made bean soup with ham, made myself breakfast and took it to bed where I watched a couple episodes from two of my favorite you tubers, Joe Robinet and Rusty West. I drifted off to sleep until 12:30. After my nap I showered, made by bed, dressed and went to the car wash where I vacuumed and washed my car.

Now I'm back home. The soup has the house smelling delightful.

I just put some corn bread in the oven. I added honey to it that was given to me by middle sons friend who lives in Arizona. He raises bees,  rattle snakes,  and tortoises.

The honey is delicious. I used some of it to make sweet honey butter for Thanksgiving Day to have with dinner rolls. 

Mr. Bojangles is in my bed bathing and Woody is on the side porch keeping an eye on the neighborhood.

I HAD MY SISTERS OVER ON THE 3RD.

We exchanged xmas gifts.

It was a good time. I'm grateful for the 4 of them. 

One of my sisters bought me a furry, soft, cozy blanket. I love it. So do the kitties!

I put some Christmas lights up outside and hung wreaths in most of the windows. I ended up putting up two trees this year. One I got for 7 bucks at the end of last season. It's silver. I've always had a green tree, and I still do but I also put up the silver one. All the ornaments on it are from the dumpster. It's so beautiful. It looks like a shimmering, shiny piece of art. lol A picture probably won't do it justice but let me go get one.........




Have a nice Sunday. :O)
