Sunday, I busied myself getting ready to go to DS2′s home. My daughter-in-law had made arrangements for my 10 year old granddaughter to be cared for except for the 19th and 20th. When she called to ask me to come stay with her for a couple of days, I agreed. I was assured the young lady was capable of taking care of herself. That’s more than I can say for myself at times....

I have all of my shopping finished, over and this is the first year, ever, I have done it all from the comfort of my home. PLUS, I paid for around 90% of it with my rewards points I get with my Discover card. Discover and Amazon have joined forces so a person can access the rewards points and pay for items that way. I tithe what I spend that way because, after all, it’s sheer profit. Next year, I won’t be able to do as much because my balance had been building over a matter of years. I won’t have as much to play with.... Read more

Strange and exotic foods of the plant type are intriguing to me. I had to add the “plant type” because a lot of people are excited by foods obtained from killing our fellow earth creatures and I don’t want to be grouped with them. The last (and first) unusual ingredient post was of the mineral type so I’m branching out. I’ll have to confess that I haven’t used this ingredient—yet. I’m still in the “figuring out” phase....

2003 went from Halloween to Thanksgiving to Christmas with all the usual junk food everywhere. I did my part eating it and probably ate more than anyone else. That was mostly because I self-medicated with food. If I was happy, I celebrated by eating. Sad? I ate. Depressed? I ate constantly. The scales showed it. I quit weighing. I didn’t want to know how much I weighed.... Read more

Sunday came with all its duties and responsibilities. There was plenty to do but I didn’t do much of it. DD and I visited for a little over a half hour. Besides that, I did my blog post to give away 12 fruit bars and another on G&D Construction’s web site. The latter one took forever, it seemed, because I had to straighten and enhance a lot of the pictures plus resize all of them. It’s done, though, I’m glad to say. Ten projects are up and no telling how many to do. I have come to terms with the fact that I’ll never catch up. That’s fine. I’ll never have to wonder “What next?”... Read more

I had to put the insane “raw food” idea out of my head. I was going crazy thinking about it. DD had been away from home too long but there was no talking her into coming back. She was Miss Independence and visits were all I could hope to have from years before on out. I could only hope she would come to her senses before she did permanent damage to her health.... Read more

Sunday was spent trying to fill the ocean with a spoon. Well, not exactly, but it seemed close. You see, the waterbed mattress I bought a year and a half ago (I think it was) has stretched a bit. Where it had stretched was a giant air bubble. A correctly filled waterbed should allow the owner’s behind to briefly touch the bottom of the frame and then lift it back up. I could sit on the bottom of the frame. Not good.... Read more

August 2003 found me at my mother’s place again to help celebrate her birthday. This would be her 99th one, a fact she guarded carefully. No one outside the family was to know her age. We were all sworn to secrecy on penalty of getting on her “list”. We all complied.... Read more
