  1. Walked first and paid bills. Checked antifreeze for DH's doc appointment this afternoon. DH fell on his back and twisted a bit, landed on his left hip. Cracked it and will have surgery in the morning. Just a couple of screws, we hope. We never know where a day will lead!
  2. We have some workman here replacing our central ac/heating unit today. I walked. Laundry is almost done. Made some phone calls and ordered flat rate envelopes for ebay. I should walk the dogs later, but have to wait until the fellows are done with unit. I agree that the twilight years are not kind to us @Mt_Rider!
  3. Yesterday was a regular Church and dog walk day. Rested some. I've been flipping back and forth between 3.5 hours of sleep and 8 hours. I have no sugar or caffeine after 1 pm, so it's not that. Just my system. LOL This morning, will take DH to VA clinic for bloodwork. Then Walmart for 2 items, Dollar General for 1 item and thrift shop. Will walk when I get home. This afternoon, will pressure can the roast cooked a couple of days ago. Half with bbq sauce and half with taco seasoning. You all have a good week! I'm so sorry about all you are dealing with @Jeepers! I hope they can at least get it so you can live in the house while they finish, soon! @Littlesister, This! Me too!
  4. Is the Coast Guard still an option @Littlesister? I hope so for your sake. @Necie That is a lovely photo! Yesterday, I went to do monthly stock up, after walking. Didn't do much else. This morning, I will walk first. Take Aninja to get her nails clipped. Find or make dry gravy mix. Go to Fall Fest at local Methodist Church. Rest some.
  5. I have canned them in BBQ sauce and they were great!
  6. Will walk first this morning. Start a 7 pound pork butt roast in the crockpot with seasonings. I hope to can some of it! (not today) Walk dogs. Take some home grown frozen breaded okra to a friend for a cookout. Bible study this evening. I will definitely need more to do today. Air hose with foil seems to be working fine for DH. I think it will make a fine garland at Christmas! Glad you are back @Necie! Can you check to see if they have changed any of her meds, recently?
  7. I love mine! I like that drying rack, too. Will look for one of those. I had also forgot how long it takes to run a canner load of food. Heating up the canner, venting, building up pressure, canning time and letting pressure come back down took hours. Amen to that @Jeepers!
  8. Now he looks like he is heading out on a spacewalk as moves through the house! LOL
  9. Walked early. Helped DH wrap foil around air hose to deter cat from chewing it. Cat went through 3 hoses yesterday. Will see if it works. Going to pick up friend in a few minutes and run around locally to stores for sales. Have to cut carrots for dog treats. Will come up with something to do later.
  10. I'm glad you are home safe! Sounds like an interesting trip. I hope your back feels better soon and that you get some rest!
  11. Will walk first. Go to local dentist for 6 months cleaning. Walk dogs. Do laundry. Visit a friend. Easy day! I hope that your GS gets in the Coast Guard, soon and that you get your docs straightened out @Littlesister! You have a lot going on!
  12. Walked at about 6:30 this morning. Took DH to VA clinic at 9 am, then went to Dollar Tree for Halloween candy in case we get any kids. Went to Aldi for a few things. Came home and A/C fellow came over. $8200 complete for a new central unit with 10 year warranty. Yikes! But DH wants to get it done. Old unit was about 15 years old when we bought the house. Set up DH's pills for the month. Made a bunch of croutons from some homemade bread that was frozen for awhile. Made some business calls including Legacy Cremation Services. I hate to make those adult type calls but have been putting it off for over a year. Need to know process and cost for future- hopefully way in the future- needs. Will water roses tonight- still need rain! Glad you are home, safely @Annarchy! @Mt_Rider, my little Peanut (with the liver issues) also has a collapsing trachea. Common-ish in small dogs. She has always worn a harness, never a collar. I found a product from Earth Animal called Cough, Wheeze & Sneeze. The first ingredient is mullein. It seems to be helping the reverse sneezing (which sounds like she can't breathe), a lot. So, now that it is helping her, DH is having me give him the mullein tincture that I got for him a few months ago. Since it's helping her, you know. LOL
  13. Good morning! Never walked yesterday, so took xl walk this morning. Next, I will go pick up trash from Church parking lot. It's at a major? intersection in our tiny town and people don't care. Also, parades are on that road- last one was homecoming. After, will pick up my friend and take her to local store. Once home, I will start on the Christmas cards I didn't get to, yesterday.
  14. Up too early as DH has doc appt. in the next town at 8am. Will go to that first. Then Lowe's for security screen door and a gallon of paint. Then I will walk. Start making out Christmas cards, so I don't put that off. Only got 4 and a half hours sleep, so I hope to rest a bit today. Supposed to get up to 88 degrees today. What happened to Fall? That's great, Becca Anne! I'm happy for you!
  15. Walked early, not quite as chilly. Ran around town doing a few errands. Walked dogs. Put the cat cage back in shed since Charlie is doing better at sleeping in bedroom. Put some lick tubs away in shed. Still need to email a couple of friends and water roses, this evening.
  16. Walked in the cold, this morning. Took Peanut Butter to her beauty parlor appointment. Stopped by Dollar Tree. Had appointment with health insurance agent Picked my pup up and came home. Haven't done much else.
  17. Will walk first. DH and I will go to little local bank and open a checking account. Then walk dogs. Give little Peanut Butter a bath as she has grooming appt. tomorrow. Clean baths and dust house. Water roses this evening.
  18. Walked first this morning. Laundry is done for the week. Made a few business calls. Now to find something to do!
  19. Very easy day, today! Will walk first. Pick up trash in Church parking lot. There was a parade last week and people throw stuff down wherever they are. Went to the dented can store yesterday, so will put that away today. Nothing else on my list! I'm sorry you had to go through that, Jeepers! DH just had that done with the suction machine and no pain at all. I hope you don't do it like that, again!
  20. Walked first and then walked dogs. Next, I need to inventory canned veggies that I buy and make a list of what is needed. Go hit the dented can store with my friend. The cheesecake was great @Becca_Anne! Glad you have half day off!
  21. Today, I will walk first. Never walked yesterday as it rained all day. Will pick up my friend and take her to her bank and loan payment place. Go to Aldi, Walmart and back home. Walk dogs. Haircut at 1pm. Bible study at 6. It's a friend's Birthday. I made a Butter Pecan Cheesecake, yesterday while the dog food was pressure canning.
  22. It's raining now, so I will walk at some point. Will pressure can the dog food that cooked overnight. That's all on my list! Other stuff comes up, but that's the biggie. Here too and thankfully rain!
  23. Walked first. Went to bank and paid off house. Yay! Local grocery. Handyman came over to see what all we need done. Still have to prep meat and veggies for making dog food this afternoon. It will cook overnight and get pressure canned tomorrow. That's great news!
  24. Up early again. Will walk first. Laundry already going. Will dehydrate sweet potato slices for dog treats. Nothing else planned. I'm glad that you and yours are feeling better @Becca_Anne! And I'm sorry that you are in "Fall fatigue" @Mt_Rider! I hope you all have a great week!
