Saturday: Weekend! Wahoo.
Had our breakfast @ the diner. Our #’s are improving. As always, there early and that helps tremendously.
Rainy weekend, so looks like it’ll be mostly indoor work. We need the rain.
So, here’s to enjoying your Saturday.
Glad you took the time to catch up w/your friend.
Good plans to revamp the budget now that YOU'RE getting a paycheck, too.
Had rain earlier, and now it sopped, but sill cloudy.
Have a good weekend.0 -
Still working on that organization. Took some time for a nap yesterday. Was just so very tired. Was a rough week with little sleep. Needed to compensate.
Last evening, Tim and I went out for miniature golf for date night. It was nice. There were a couple of kids running around the course, but.... It was still nice to get out for some laughs.
Making Slow Cooker Cajun Alfredo tonight for dinner. Hope it turns out. Already warned Tim that it might be a little spicy.
Looks like it might rain today, so I may do some grocery shopping to get it done for the week.
Stay dry!0 -
Sunday: Rained overnight. Supposed to have showers today, today, too.
Definitely a rest day. Tired from the vaccination, but no ill affects.
Here’s to the start of a new week.
Blessings.
Michelle: Hope your organization works out! Your crock pot Cajun Alfredo sounds delicious!
Here's to a good week.0 -

Monday: Rainy day yesterday and again today. Right now at least it isn’t raining.
Yesterday was a rest day for sure. Tired after the vaccination.
Jason has PT this morning, so he’ll be a tired camper.
Here’s is to a motivated Monday.
HUGS
BIGD: Hope all goes well @ the chiropractors.0 -
We ended up driving out to New Lisbon yesterday to check out a new winery. The wine was good, but we were not impressed with the atmosphere or service. When I say that, I mean that they don't offer cheese platters or a place to sit and enjoy a glass. So.. When we left, we had to search for a place to eat lunch. Now, mind you, it was now almost 2. We were starved. We stopped at three different places before finding one that was open. The diner claimed they were too busy to feed us....
I did go through the next drawer, and got rid of some stained up t-shirts I'll never wear
Today was a typical work day. Have my Cajun Chicken Alfredo in the crockpot. We were too full for dinner after our late lunch yesterday. My recipe is from the website Delish!
Enjoy the evening. Looks like it could rain this evening here!0 -
Tuesday: Out the door early as Jason has an eye appointment. Then have to make another veggie run.
Depending on the weather may take Miss Lilly to the dog park.
Here’s to a terrific Tuesday.

Michelle: Sorry that the atmosphere and service @ the winery wasn't good.0 -
Horrible night's sleep last night. Just rolled and rolled. Not really sure why. Ran errands after work today to the gas station and drug store. I needed more migraine and thyroid pills. I should have gone yesterday, but I was waiting for a call back from the Dr. Guess they just called in the refill instead..
Making Enchiladas and cornbread tonight for dinner. It's a quick recipe.
Felt cooler outside today. But, it is October...0 -
Wednesday: Well, Jasons eye exam turned out well. PHEW.
Got some house work done and will continue today. Jason has hand therapy this morning, then the chores.
Have a wonderful Wednesday.
HUGS
Michelle: Hope that you get a better sleep tonight!
YUM! Enchiladas and corn bread. Delicious. I love cornbread.

Going grocery shopping this afternoon. We have a quick camping trip this weekend. Not our usual camping, just going to watch my brother in law race for a couple of days. There is a campground next door to the racetrack, so we will be staying there rather than driving the hour both days to Unity to see him. So just planning basics for food.
Sleep was a little better last night, but not as good as I would like. Warmed up nice this afternoon. Was thinking it was time to pack away the capris. Nope, not yet
Enjoy the weather while we can!0 -
We've never been to this one, and to be honest, we are not looking forward to it. We are ready to put the camper away for the year. But, we promised my brother in law we would go...
Making potato salad tonight, and packing the camper tonight. Because we are there to watch the races, I won't have the extra time to make my salad in the camper. So, I have to prep ahead. We are leaving around 2 tomorrow afternoon. Have a great weekend!0 -
Friday: Jason has a zoom conference call for his Mayo appointment registration. And then a zoom meeting for his consulting. He will be a busy boy. And in the meantime. Will get packing done.
To all my Canadian friends, I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.
Everyone else, enjoy FriYaY and the weekend.
HUGS
Michelle: Hope the camping goes well this weekend, and good luck to your BIL.

We ended up enjoying ourselves at the races. The campground... Not so much. But, it was just a place to sleep anyway. It is a small private campground that seems to cater more to the permanent residents. To a point that they have special rules for permanents and non permanents. Next year, we will park the camper at the track. But, we made the best of it!
Now, to enjoy our evening before heading back to work!0 -
Monday: Early start w/labs and ultrasound. Dr. appt. @ 11:1 5
Did get to meet my friend from my days as a student nurse! Nice.
HUGS and terrific Tuesday.
Michelle: Glad you enjoyed yourselves @ the races. Sorry the campground wasn’t great, but . . . . glad you had a place to stay anyhow.
Have a good week ahead, everyone.

Hubby tossed and turned last night, so I woke up feeling like I didn't sleep at all... I came home after work and took a nap. Had something quick for dinner, and am working on laundry. Easy night.
Rainy day here today, and cooler. Though the house had a higher humidity level.0 -
Tuesday: Getting ready to head back home. Successful trip thank goodness. Jas doesn’t have to have a check on the thyroid till next year, now. PHEW.
Have a terrific Tuesday.
HUGS
Sorry your sleep was disrupted. but glad you had an easy night last night.

Slept much better last night, but now we are behind..LOL
Watched a webinar on stress eating yesterday. Where was that when I was working my last job?! Still had some great ideas and tips. Most of it where things I knew, but it's always nice to be reminded of them!
I made a light lemon chicken over rice for dinner tonight. It was very tasty and had mushrooms, peppers, and onions in the sauce with the chicken. Tim had chicken and sauce.. LOL. More veggies for me!
It was cloudy today with a rain shower this evening. Calling for more rain tomorrow. I'm ready for sunshine..0 -
Wednesday: Wow! Fast, fast week. We arrived home yesterday afternoon and I am tired! Did most of the driving. It rained/drizzled/stormed, road construction and detours. BUT we made it safely. Thank goodness.
So happy for Jason’s good news that things are all well. We don’t have to return for a year.
HURRAY!
Today . . . . catch up on laundry, etc.
HUGS
Michelle: Glad you got some good tips from the webinar on stress eating.
Rainy right now here, too. Started out sunny but that didn’t last long.

Today was my busy day. I do a lot of lifting on Wednesdays, so I am very wore out. I spent the evening cooking bacon wrapped stuffed chicken breasts for dinner. Mine was a Colorado style with onions and peppers in it. Yum.
I spent the evening working on the menu for our next trip next week. We are going towards Rhinelander for a few days to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. We were together 18 years before getting married though. We thought we should do something special for our 10th anniversary
Have a good evening!0 -
Thursday: Have to make a grocery run. Tha’s the ‘big outing’ for today. We’re sill just a little tired, but it’s a good tired.
Rained yesterday. Hope that today we see a little sunshine!
Caught up now with laundry and other things, so that feels good!
Hard to believe it is AGAIN Friday EVE. Lord.
HUGS
Michelle: I bet you're worn out after lots of heavy lifting.
How lovely! Have a great upcoming anniversary and trip! 🥂

I finally felt as if I caught up from my lack of sleep the other night. I take a short nap every day after work, but set the alarm for 30 minutes. The last few days, I really had to drag myself awake. But, today, I woke up before the alarm did.
Watching a coaching session tonight on plateaus. That's always a challenge for anyone losing weight. I hope to learn some tricks, or mindsets to help keep me going. I can't complain. I've lost 31 pounds since June
Tonight was leftover night. The bacon wrapped chicken breasts are pretty big, so we cut them in half for two meals.
It's supposed to cool down here to lower 50's tomorrow. Stay warm!0 -
Have fun in Rhinelander we made allot of trips there when our friends lived there they had since moved to Superior ,we loved the legend of the Hodag,if you go to Rhinelander try out the mexican resteraunt there very good its called Casa Mexicana0

Friday: Well, we have gotten to FriYaY! Fabulous!
Jason has hand PT this afternoon. That’s our outing for today.
HOPE it’s a wonderful Friday for all.
HUGS
Michelle: Glad you feel more rested.
Hope you get some good pointers watching the coaching session about dealing w/plateaus.
Your leftovers sound great!
Yes, cool here .. . . 52 right now.
BIGD: Glad you had a good trip to Rhinelander!

Sunday: Blessings on this Sunday.
Cool weather, but it’s Fall. Crisp. Loving it.
Made a trip to Walmart. Lots of empty shelves. **SIGH** But did get sink mats and slippers that I needed.
Will take Miss Lilly to the park so she can burn off some energies.
Have a good day!
BIGD: Some places are just worthy of repeat visits! When we go to Rochester MN (Mayo Clinic) we always go to Hollandberry’s Pennekoeken. Dutch food. Sooooooo delicious! Wet there as a student nurse back in the 70’s. They moved to a new, larger location. Never disappointed when we eat there!

We spent yesterday running to Madison to shop at our favorite meat market and Costco. We had hoped to visit with my daughter, but the whole family is sick. Nope, not going near that!
We stopped at Rock N' Wool Winery for a tasting and went out for pizza for dinner last night. All in all, it was a very nice day.
Working on another drawer in my organization project today, laundry, and my grocery shopping list for our trip. I'd like to do our shopping tomorrow so that on Tuesday, we can focus on packing.
Enjoy the sunshine today!!0 -
1crazydog Dutch Food sounds interesting,i willhave to look this place up online 0

Had a productive day yesterday. I accomplished lots of small tasks, so it felt like a putzy day. But, it felt great to get it all done. Tim worked outside taking the flower pots to the shed, and taking the canvas covers off of the screen porch and grill gazebo for the winter. It is time. Depressing time of year...
Going shopping after a quick dinner tonight for our food supplies for the trip. I hope to focus tomorrow night on packing clothing.
It was pretty chilly this morning, but it turned out to be a nice day! Enjoy it!!0
