I slept in this morning as it was a really ruff night for me. I didn’t get to sleep until around 3.30 AM. My back and leg pain had kicked in and so that means a ruff night of sleeping. As most people know I very seldom take a nap during the day time even if I haven’t slept for days. Usually anyone who knows me know that when I sleep during the day it means one of two things … 1.. I’m exhausted and my MS has flared it’s ugly head … or 2 .. I’m sick. So just because I have a ruff night sleeping, normally I still do not sleep during the daytime.
I did sleep in until 9.30 AM today. Then I didn’t feel to bad when I got up so I went up to the dining hall and helped Penny pan biscuits for Saturday morning breakfast. Of course I did like 15 mins worth of work as she had it mostly done by the time I got out of bed. That is what I love about being a volunteer .. I feel useful and I am not expected to work anytime I do not feel like, I work when I want to or am able to do so. It makes you feel like you are still able to give something back even though you have severe health problems. After we finished we sat and drank pop and visited. I enjoy spending time with other people.
After lunch the rain arrived and I mean it really arrived .. it was coming down in bucket full. It continued to rain on and off all evening and from what the weather says it’s going to continue through out tomorrow as well. Hubby nor I was in the mood to cook dinner tonight so in between the rain showers we ran into town to Wal-mart and got some fresh fried chicken and since they were out of potato salad we settled for macaroni salad. Thanks Wal-mart and the best part is there is left overs for another meal
I did do some cleaning this afternoon, I went through some of our mail that has collected into a huge pile, I now have a large pile that needs burned but it will have to wait for a better day, plus I have more in one of the cabinets that I need to go through. I also cleaned off our table, counter and the counter the printer sits on .. man where does all that dust come from? I put away some of my things that I set out to make our home feel comfy, I’m slowly getting into moving mode. We still have not made any plans but I decided I bet get busy and start packing all this junk away that we have drug out through the last 8 months. Can you believe it? We’ve been parked in the same place for 8 months now and boy has the time flew by.
Tomorrow I plan to start tackling the cabinets one by one and see what I need to pitch and what I need to take to our stick home and what needs to stay in our home on wheels. It’s amazing how junk oops I mean stuff can accumulate.
Since the Cards did not play well when I watched them the other night, I will not be watching them tonight as I’d like to see them make it to game 7! So even though I will not be watching … GO CARDS!
My back is starting to feel the rain effect even though the temps are fairly nice as it’s still in the high 60’s! It’s going to be a night of curling up and just relaxing on my heating pads. Of course I have to watch the new episode of Duck Dynasty!! I will be so glad when Halloween is over as I am not a fan of scary or killer movies and here lately that is all my favorite TV stations have had on .. I’m so ready for the Thanksgiving and Christmas movies to start!!
