The fastest two days of the week have flown by again. I don’t know where the weekends go – I really don’t. I leave work on Friday afternoon with so many plans for how I will spend the next two days, and when Sunday night rolls around, I’m wondering where the time went. Continue reading “Lost and Found”

I was so pleased when I got home from work Tuesday and saw that M had taken his noon-time pills – and he said he had done it when the alarm went off. Then I took a good look at the pill dispenser and realized . . . he had taken THE ENTIRE WEEK’S WORTH OF PILLS Continue reading “Are You Alarmed?”

Is it cold where you are? I know I can’t complain. It IS January, but WOW!! We went from temperatures in the 60s, near 70 degrees, to lows around 22° and highs temps staying in the 30s. Let’s just say my blood isn’t used to this. Continue reading “Hello! How are You?”

Three days of smoothies, evening meditation and brain training games. I can’t say for sure, but we might be on a roll! Continue reading “Find That Word”

Smoothie attempt – day two. Today’s try for breakfast smoothies went MUCH better, mainly because I put them together last night after dinner and they were in the fridge, ready to drink, this morning. The only ingredient I forgot to add was protein powder, which meant I was STARVING by 9 am today. Continue reading “Shake – Shake – Shake”

Nothing like starting off Monday with the BEST of intentions . . . all to have it go right down the drain within the first five minutes. Sigh. Continue reading “Hide and Go Seek”
