Ho hum...

So apprently I've caught what I keep hearing is going around?

When I got home from the hospital after surgery - Brody was sneezing and it got so much worse the next couple days...he was a snot boy! Michael had a sore throat that day. BUT neither last through the weekend and all was well. My parents have both had crud for what feels like a month now. Mom wasn't coming over for lunch, haven't seen Dad in a while. She ended up having to get 2 antibiotics just to kick it.

But now...I have a funk in my chest. I do not feel bad...I feel gunky in the chest - that's it! But that's enough to not feel 100% and that's stinky. I did mow the yards on Wednesday and kicked up a whole bunch of stuff...so I figured that's what did it....for me...but Raina woke up this morning sounding like I do. Hopefully it's just something blooming and not a full blown "sickness"! I do have a nice Bass sound to my voice today though...I could hang in that section of the choir - that's for dang sure :)

But on the other hand I'd rather us all get something NOW and get over it before the birthday party gets here.....

which....

Good gosh - I have a piece of advice. Do NOT have gallbladder surgery, take pain meds and do your kids party invite. HA HA HA!!!

The first joke was, I printed them upside down. So all the pretty ballons on the edge....are upside down! THAT I could get away with. But then....

It kinda helps to have a date and time to a party you're attending! What?!?!?

UGH...I have no excuses except I did it after surgery and not before and was clearly not all with it!

Luckily we live in the information age and I promptly got an e-mail out to everyone. What a goob!

Today's another pretty day. I went to the store yesterday and didn't realize we still had a 1/2 loaf of my bread (whole grain) and bought a whole new loaf. SO I decided there was no way I was going to eat that much bread before at least the older one molding - so we're going to go to the park later and feed some ducks. I'll have pictures later.

I'm about 1/2 way through 23 Minutes in Hell by Bill Wiese. Hopefully I'll get that finished today. So far....hmmm...not sure what I think. We'll see how it ends.

Goals for 2020

So after thinking through this for a while, I've decided to bring this back into my life.  I love to write, I love to express myself and share recipes.  SO...this blog may not always look pretty...it might get messy, because that's life, and I'm too old to pretend it's not.   Goals for 2020: To continue to search for what feeds my soul and not harms it. I'm going to keep up with my health goals and make it another year of weight maintenance.  Walking starts again.  Not about needing to lose, I like everything a bit tighter.  So there you go.  I'm not athletic, I do not LIKE working out.  But I do like walking because of the moment to take a breath and enjoy being outside and listening to good music 💓 I wanted to commit to living my truth...if I say be kind...that means I have to drop some guards and also do just that.  There's been a couple relationships over the years that I wanted to circle back to this year.  Both hav...

I’m always trying to perfect my recipe so I tried some different things yesterday and BAM….I mean wowza BAM!!!! Jayme’s Award Winning 😉 Salsa 2lbs Tomatillo, husked and washed and halved 2 Jalapeño, washed, halved, seeded if you’re a wuss.  1 Serrano, washed, remove stem 1 red onion, quartered 1 Lg Tomato 1 Bunch Cilantro 2 Tbs minced garlic  Salt  On a large baking sheet lay out your tomatillos, peppers and onion. Cover the bottom of the pan Chicken stock or water. I also drizzled a little olive oil.  Put in a 350 oven for 75-90 minutes.  Let cool down a bit and throw everything in a food processor.  Holy. Moly. Very restaurant like. Maybe a Cantina Laredo or Haciendas Ranch feel to it. So. Good.  I like it warm so when I go to get it out of the fridge, I just throw in the microwave for a sec.  SO good!

Perpetual diets and a soul change....

I feel like all my life, I've been on a perpetual diet.  Seriously.  Pretty much every day of my life has been a choice.  Some days/months/years I do great.  Others....not so much. I've never been one of those girls.  You know...the ones that always just pulled it off.  Looks, weight, clothes.  Nope.  That is not me.  I've also always had skinny friends.  They ate the same things as me...but I'd notice on me and never on them.  I think I've always aspired in some way to be each of them.  Hell, maybe they keep me in check so I don't ever let myself go to much?  That's some deep thinking stuff! What a funny life.  Then, I had my jaw surgery.  Long recovery.  Long, hard, painful recovery.  I think I just gave myself a pass for the last couple of years.  Because I can tell you...I hadn't been too worried about my weight since then. So.  I had a picture taken of me on August 17th.  As ...
