Yay, Thursday!

 Some happy things from today: 

  • As I left for work this week the moon has been radiant.  
  • My work week is over.  
  • I made dinner tonight and people liked it.  It was just a meat and potatoes kind of meal.  When I talked with my doctor the other day, ways to improve my poor eating habits were discussed.  I'm going to try to incorporate some better choices and this was a start.
  • Tomorrow a friend and I are going camping for the weekend.  This is the first time in YEARS that I have gone camping that isn't SCA camping.  I don't need medieval clothing or a coronet on my head.  I think I've mostly packed.  I still need to pack clothes because it was laundry day and I'm at the point where I need to choose to sleep instead of fold clothes.  They will fit in my big backpack.  While camping this weekend, I'm not sure if I will have service for my phone to post my blog.   
My red pack will be for day use.
The big one has my tent, bedding, etc.
The black bag has food.  Some of that will end up in the red pack.
The clear bag with the gray fabric is sewing for the car. 🙂

Thank you for being part of my happy things. Stay safe.

P.S.  It turns out that when I start to fall asleep while writing, sometimes my fingers will lean on the predictive text.  I wonder how often I've had typos from that that I didn't notice...

Final Post for 2024

--Here are some happy things from this last day of the year: It was a working day for me.  It was busy and I left early.  I had three and a half hours of PTO and I decided to use them.  There was internal guilt, but everyone I told that I had PTO to use, agreed that I needed to use my time. Since I was home a little early, I went to DIY Craft & Thrift and helped finish up the store reset.  The store looks great and somehow seems to be more spacious.   After a nap, I went to the party Keziah and Zed were having.  The theme has to do with toasting in the New Year with jam.  Jam-bor-brie is what they called it this year.  I got to spend time with friends visiting and playing games.  I learned two new games; The Isle of Cats and Dixit.  We also played Carcassonne.   It was a lot of fun.  I need to play games more often. Spin the Lego wheel to choose your jam! My board toward the beginning of playing The Isle of Cats. The y...

Sleepy Time

Here are some happy things from today. At work, I survived a shift of stowing.  For this, and other reasons, I should practice squatting more often.  Perhaps it is time for me to find an exercise challenge.  I seem to do well with challenges like that. On the way home TF called.  We hadn't talked for a while.  Embarrassingly, I eventually fell asleep during our conversation.  I guess it has been a long week.  We ended our conversation and I took a nap.  My alarm goes off at 3:30 every afternoon.  Soon after that Keziah called.  This helped wake me up enough to go eat.  Food is important.  Keziah thought Zed was going somewhere tonight and I might like to join him. He wasn't, so I went and rested for a few minutes.  Hours later I woke up.  I missed Craft Night and had eighteen minutes to get a DuoLingo lesson done before midnight.  🤣 It was a work, sleep, eat kind of day.  Thankfully I thought to get a pictu...

Sore Thursday

Here are some happy Thursday things: In an attempt to make a long story short, last week I fell and things didn't seem too sore.  Then I went hiking and backpacking, again, not too bad.  Follow this with work where I needed to get up and down from the floor and now I am having enough aches and pains that I've been taking ibuprofen.  Why is this part of my happy list?  The ibuprofen worked.  It wasn't perfect, but while on it, there was a lot of improvement.  So much so that around 5.5 hours after taking it, I could tell the pills had worn off.  Okay, maybe the story wasn't short.  🙂 I remembered to mend the seam on the gown I'm planning to wear Saturday.   It needs a little more done, but not today. Before After The Inktober prompt was boots.  I am no artist. Pencil Pen Sunset ☮ Currently listening to: The Silmarillion , by J. R. R. Tolkien.  Thank you for being part of my happy things. Stay safe.
