Slache Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I just posted this in a a fitness accountability group on FB: Nothing real last week or this upcoming week due to inlawness. I have been doing particular things that I don't often do like climb to the top of the Astoria Column and run back and forth from the ocean to where (disabled) FIL sits on the benches and I am amazed at the difference I feel leading a gluten free lifestyle. Looking back it was like trying to do everything with a terrible flu. It's incredible how much more energy I have now. Don't get me wrong, I'm still Mommy tired, but I haven't cried from exhaustion since I intentionally ate gluten for my celiac test. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prairiewindmomma Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 We've been busy weekending. I've come to the conclusion that the 9' diameter azalea and rhododendron bushes are just planted too close to the house (18" out) and that I can't save them. They are flowering at the tips of 8' long branches, which makes trimming impossible. I'm going to enjoy them this summer, and then dig them out and begin again. I'm super bummed. I'm really frustrated that all of the landscaping at this house was managed incorrectly. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very tired, but I need to get the grocery list done, and find out where the funk in the refrigerator is lurking and so vanquish it. Also need to vanquish Chapter 3 edits, critique a chapter for a friend, do my work for the class where I'm a week behind and one internet short of being able to keep up with, and basically survive. Wish me luck! ETA: Also decide if I'm doing school this week (I think not), plan what I need to eat at work later this week, decide whether it would be a good week to write and finish my Camp project, and clean house when I'm not writing, and tweak query letters, chapters, and try to get everything perfect for a flush of querying to start up again in August. Plus school planning for fall. Plus it's my actual birthday, although I will probably plan my own little celebration for Oct 22, because I want to do outdoor stuff on a lake or river somewhere, and it's way too hot to enjoy outside in July. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!! It's a birthday booyah! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to get back to sleep and slept until 9. The little girls are currently cleaning out our VHS collection. :) I have a bunch of things that need to go out in the mail today.

Paige Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 We went to an exhibit about home designs of the future. I want a future house! I need to Konmari my house, get lots of money, and install future tech everywhere. I want the cool kitchen storage, the modular rooms, and the universal design/accessibility features. A lot of the features were like those you'd see in tiny houses, but on a little bit larger scale. DD said, "I love the future." Speaking of money....we're seeing the bills for our flooding and not even counting personal property we're going over $20000 already. For maybe 2inches of water. Thank goodness the insurance is covering it. I don't know how people recover without insurance. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
