Last week I was sick and I am still suffereing the tail end of a nasty cold. The worst part is not being able to breath. Saturday for the most part Jenn was very kind and attentive to my needs. She took care of everything and I just rested, slept, and read most of the day in the bedroom. Sunday we went for a drive and she picked some golden delicious apples. Her favorite. I watched. Jenn is a good apple picker and should consider it should she ever wants to change careers. Monday it was back to work for the two fo us but we did not mind because we knew we were going to have the rest of the week off.
So we had Tuesday off and we relaxed, baked, and had a new diningroom table delivered. The diningroom looks great. It is a bigger table and since we like to have family and friends over it will be a nice change to have some extra elbow room. Wednesday we went to the mall and started christmas shopping. That is always a good idea, something we are always trying to get done at the last minute, (not this year). Today we are driving to the George Eastman house. Jenn’s mom gave us some tickets. Then we are going to have some dinner and head over to the Little for a movie. Not sure what movie or what we will be eating I am going to look on-line for all that when I am done here. Tomorrow we are letting Matty have two firends over along with his cousin’s Emily, Temoc, Xochitl. That should be fun. We are all set too for Halloween. All in all it has been a really nice peaceful week. Work sucks sometimes and it is nice to get away from it all and spend time with the people who matter the most and the people you love.

We all have them that list of things to do,do we ever do what is on this list ? Well if you are like me you may do everything when it is a crunch time and it REALLY needs to get done or you may be like I was today and say screw it, don’t I do enough. How about I spend my day off doing my nails, reading a book, walking my dog, or talking to a friend for an hour who I haven’t talked to in over two weeks.
Today I had a list. I love lists and my life for the most part is filled with list. There is the wish list, grocery list, things to get done outside list, things to do on the weekend, bills to pay, appointments to make, things to buy and so and so on. What the hell got me started on lists I am not sure. For as long as I can remember since before puberty I have been writing up list, well today I said screw the list. And while it may seem it was an easy thing for me to do it wasn’t, but I did it and it was all okay.
Today I had the day off and so instead of visiting my aunt which I have been doing at least twice a week for the last two in a half months ( and I am not really sure if she appreciates it ) I called a close friend who I have not talked to in two weeks and we actually made plans for halloween. Instead of getting the yardwork finished I gave myself a facial, and painted my nails. Instead of cleaning out the fridge and getting some extra cleaning done inside the house I took Lucy to North Hampton for an hour long hike/ power walk. Then after arriving home from that I had lunch and started to read a book I bought over the weekend ” You The Owners Manual ”
Could I have done everything on my list ? Sure, and then some? I probably could have written another list of things to do tomorrow. But what I got done today made me happy, Maybe it wasn’t on my list of things to do but oh well. aAccording to the book I am reading maybe I added a day or two to my life for making myself happy !
Overall life is great, well better than great. There is always tomorrow to work on my list.
