To do: coffee work on meal plan visit with my mom by phone or window watch football lesson plan for week work on dining room clutter not sure about dinner yet Have a great day!

The Stand. It's a great story with memorable characters. I don't get tired of reading this one, also have it on Audible. The first King book I read was Salem's Lot (13 yo). I slept with the light on for a long time after that. The Stand doesn't bother me in that way, particularly with what's been going on the past two years.

I am so sorry...prayers for you and your family.

I saw my mom! We were both so happy! I feel much better now... I left home without my ATM card, so I couldn't do much after that. Dd got excellent news about her leg. She can now do light weight-bearing, start physical therapy. It sounds like she will be cleared to go back to school. We are ecstatic! Dh and I went to the bank, got some lunch out. Dd wanted KFC to celebrate, so we got her that. I guess dinner is solved. Probably just some snacks this evening.

Good morning, all! Amy, what a great surprise for your son. The Reader, hope you are feeling betteer! More rain today, expected to last through tonight. I get to visit my mom today, so very excited about that! Dh is taking dd to her ortho appt today, and hopefully we get some good news. If things look good, she will get to transition to crutches and physical therapy. I tried a new oatmeal this morning, so monitoring my blood sugar with fingers crossed. Ever since I was diagnosed with Type 1, I have missed my oatmeal. I'm the only one in the family that likes it, so it was no loss on their part. I, however, have missed it dearly. To do today: visit with my mom Walmart for some meds, supplies, low carb snacks for next week find and organize more paperwork lesson plan, possibly stop by school to set up for Monday set up reading notebook for 2022 not sure about dinner Have a great day!

Amy, so sorry! Prayers for no symptoms!

Good morning, all! I'm a bit tired today. There was a high speed chase through our neighborhood early this morning. The driver hit some of the parked cars on our surrounding streets. The young man across the street's car was totaled, feel so bad for him. It was hard to go back to sleep after that. It's weird because we live in a very quiet neighborhood, low traffic. Really looking forward to the end of 2021. 😂 To do today: coffee schedule visit to see my mom make dr appts for self walk, weights breakfast grade, lesson plan work on plan/goals for 2022 (health/exercise/$$$/reading) laundry watch some football go through old emails, delete while watching football steak, salad for dinner/mac and cheese for dd Have a great day!

So sorry...prayers for you and your family.

I am so sorry...praying for you, your parents.

Amy, prayers for your dad, that new meds are successful.

Good morning, all! It has finally stopped raining here, next storm coming in tomorrow. I'm looking forward to just taking a breath, not feeling the stress of the long drive to the hospital each day.

To do today: coffee, shower, dress sign paperwork, take bag for my mom meal plan, grocery list, shop paperwork organize books, possible purge pile start donation pile for Goodwill watch some football not sure for dinner, maybe grill some steaks read, relax Have a great day!

I'm back home...the rain is heavy and temps are dropping rapidly. It's 45 here right now, and happy to relax in front of the fire for a bit. My mom is being transferred later today, have to get some things together for her. I will have to go out tomorrow and buy her some athletic shoes for physical therapy. She rarely wears shoes anymore, just the fluffy gripper socks.

Good morning, all! Scout, safe travels! My mom was approved for rehab yesterday, so they are making a list of places close to our house. The plan is to get her strength back, then come home. After everything, we'll take it! She is very tired, but is excited about working to come home. There is another storm warning again today...expecting 1-2 inches of rain inland/mountains, lots of snow To do today: clean family room (vacuum/dust) before dh's physical therapy appointment this morning shower, get on the road to visit my mom stop and get a fancy coffee on way home, plus pick up some beans for ds1 lesson plan look online for some shoes, boots, long sleeve shirits for myself, dd leftovers for dinner (shredded Italian beef, lasagna, salad) relax with some reading, some decaf chai tea Have a great day!

Dd needed one for a theater production, as well. We rented dd's from a costume rental place. They had tons...plus, she got to try them on. We had tried ordering from Amazon, none were perfect, needed alterations.

Good morning, all! Amy, safe travels today. Hope everyone had a great day yesterday! I will drive out to visit my mom this morning...after that, hoping to sleep for a bit today. To do: laundry lesson plan for month of January read, relax, watch some movies Have a great day!
