Details on my 20 mile march (life is a marathon, not a sprint...)
Old Business:
- Cleaned the main part of the garage too, always a constant battle
- Fell off the photo bandwagon, again. Trying to get back on
- Reading, it is off and on
- Breakfast bar is middlin' at best
- Fell off the anatomy train (pun there, the series is called Anatomy Trains...)
- Contract is still doing well
- Menu planning is back a bit
- Winter project list is so-so so far
- Straw worked great. 2 bales did 3/4 of the back yard. Good information for next year.
- Still trying to really watch my pace - not sure I completely understand what is going on, but I have my ideas....
- Doctor visit was very disappointing. He was not even concerned about my energy issues and just chalked it up to age.
- Thanksgiving went really well, or at least as far as the menu was concerned. Family issues, on the other hand, always exciting!
- Christmas was also wonderful and especially so since the boys were with me during my time with Gadget. It is hard when the whole family is together just because there are so many of us, and all so very different, but that is also part of the reason I like it!
- New Year's & D's birthday also went well. Very exciting there as his house is almost ready for move in!
- My side family Christmas & Thanksgiving (Thanksmas, Christgiving??) went really well too and we were blessed to have one of my aunts and uncles with us.
- We also got to put in a new water heater that same weekend. And by we, I mean Gadget. But I did get everything I wanted out of it, so that was totally cool! Well, almost. We did not get to buy it from a local store. That was the one disappointment. But he was able to convert it to gas, and move it out into the garage. Now I get to finish that corner of the laundry room.
- 015 helped me get the snowblower up to the house so we could plug it in to start. We did not have to use it last year, so it was probably a good thing to do. And then we got to use it on Sunday!
New Business:
- Fix corner of laundry room. Can't find my joint tape, but 015 and I were able to remove the conduit for the electrical, and then get the wire up into the attic. Now we have another circuit breaker free. It has been a hope of mine for awhile to spread out the load of the house a bit more.
- Work on getting set up with providers so I can start taking insurance at work. Already set up for FSA/HSA.
- Schedule surgery. Need to get my guts yanked out. I'm fairly at peace with it now. I hope that continues.
- Another exciting business opportunity. More on that later. Don't want to jinx it as I've not told all the correct parties involved yet.
- Work on 2018 letter to send to family.
