Happy Tuesday! My son and wife should be here around 3 so I am trying to get to pool before they arrive. We are expecting rain tomorrow and cooler weather so this might be my last day at pool. Lin, I am glad you got your emails working again. Have a good day. Sandy One Day at a Time

Happy Monday/Labor Day! Got it all done yesterday and today is a pool/rest day. They are leaving our pool open until next Sunday so we get an extra week. My cleaning lady is coming today even though it is a holiday. She said she had nothing to do and it would be same price so since my son and his wife are coming tomorrow…

Happy Sunday! The backyard benefit for cancer was fun, lots of games and lots of food. Today is Babe's birthday so I am having a Mass said for him at 11:30, then buying flowers before going to cemetery. Cheryl and I are going to a Fest to see our nun friend. Lin, I am so sorry about your friend's stepson. Life is too short…

Happy Saturday! My meatballs are in the crockpot and my sheets are in the washer. It's not really hot but should be in the low 70's for the backyard benefit. I will bring a light up jacket as well. I don't think Cheryl and I are staying long because she has to get home for her dog but we will see. Jackie, I get so many…

Happy Friday! I have an appointment for a back injection today and will be happy to get it. They cancelled my last appointment do to an emergency so I had to wait an extra month and my back is sore. I have a pick up at Walmart and going to the Dollar Tree for some cards. I am hoping to go to pool but it might be too cold…

Happy Thursday! Meeting today and then my sponsee and I meet at Wendy's for a one on one. After that I have a stop at Walmart to pick up the ingredients for making my meatball appetizer for a benefit I am going to on Saturday. Cheryl's Sister in Law's sister died from cancer when young so her sibling have a benefit in…

Happy Wednesday! I am back from taking Lisa's parents to the airport. I got up at 6:45 which is early for me but I hate seeing them spend $100 on a limo when I can drive them for free. I might need a nap but it seems like it could be a pool day and they might close the pool after Labor Day which is Monday. I had to keep my…

Happy Tuesday! I almost forgot to post. Went for lunch with friends from the block I used to live with Babe. Then I took a nap and forgot about posting. Getting up early to take Lisa’s parents to the airport tomorrow so early bedtime tonight. Will catch up tomorrow. Sandy One Day at a Time

Happy Monday! Cool day here with temps in the 60's. No pool today but I really don't mind just staying in and doing nothing today. It was a busy weekend. If I get the energy I might go through my closet and get rid of some clothes that I don't wear anymore. I would like to purge and get rid of a lot of stuff but I am so…

Happy Sunday! Santa's Village was fun, I even went on some rides. lol Kids spent the night and we watched a movie. Lisa is picking up Max for a noon birthday party in my area, the other two will stay with me until party is over at 3. Too cold for pool day but maybe we can go to a park or something. I will probably look for…

Happy Friday! I have a mani/pedi appointment this afternoon and a stop at Walmart. I hope to make it to the pool a couple of hours but we will see. Tomorrow we are going to Santa's Village all day and the the kids will come home with me to spend the night so mom and dad can have a date night. Not sure what time they are…

Enjoy your new shoes Jackie. I hope they are comfortable and supporting.

Happy Thursday! Meeting today and I am speaking, not my favorite thing to do but want to do my share. Jackie, it was Lin's friend who had to put his dog down. I was just as sad as you. I hope George's surgery is minor and he will heal quickly. Lin, I agree with Jackie, they should be made to clean up after any work. Did…

Happy Wednesday! Got up early this morning to take my friend to the doctor. She bought me lunch after and now I am home. I have a talk to prepare for tomorrow's meeting so working on that although I could take a nap. Lin, I am sorry for your friend who had to put his dog down. He had great memories of his wife with her so…

Happy Tuesday! We had so much rain with lightning and thunder I was ready to build an ark. Finally got quiet for bedtime so I did get some sleep. I have an appointment with an urologist this afternoon. I am tired of getting up during the night to go potty. Hopefully, she has some answers. I am going to dinner with a pool…

Happy Monday! I don't have a lot of time as I have an appointment to pay for my funeral arrangements. I just hope I am not jinxing myself. This way things will be easier for the kids, especially those out of town. I ordered my groceries to be delivered later and I have to stop for a gift card and my prescription. Needless…

Happy Sunday! We had quite a storm last night, it was very loud and lots of rain. It woke me up and kept me up for about an hour or more before it settled down. Today the sun is out and it will probably be a pool day if I get the energy. Lin, oh no, sorry you lost your post. Jackie, glad to hear from you but sorry to read…

Happy Saturday! My landlord sent me an addendum about my lease that said if I couldn't do my stairs it would be a 4 month obligation. I texted him and told him that I thought that was excessive and he agreed to 90 days. I think that's fair so I agreed to sign the lease. So I am committing to 3 more years. Let's just pray I…

Happy Friday! Laundry is started and today is a Holy Day in my religion so I will be going to Mass at noon. After that I hope to spend the day at the pool, it will be closing soon so need to get as much pool time as I can. I have to get a hold of my landlord and see if he has my lease ready or if he changed his mind. My…

Happy Thursday! After three hours at the eye trial and numerous tests I finally got home with a sore eye. It is better today but the doctor put in a needle to take some fluid out and it felt like something was in my eye all night. Don't ask me why but I have agreed to extend the testing for four more years. It is only…

Happy Wednesday! I am getting picked up in a half hour so will be quick. Lin, I did see someone else bring them cookies or something so I thought it would be a nice gesture. They have been very nice to me so they deserve acknowledgment. I have given nurses treats for taking care of Babe, it is just a small way of saying…

Happy Tuesday! A do nothing day for me except get something to bring to the staff for my last trial appointment tomorrow, either Fannie Mae or a fruit basket. Had some rain during the night and expecting more today although it looks like the sun is trying to come out. Barbie, I was laughing at your description of the dogs…

Happy Monday! I picked up the kids at 12:30, came home to put their stuff away then went to the movie which was very cute. I took them to Mc Donald's and after we got home I let them play on their devices for an hour before watching another movie which also was cute. They were all well behaved and two are still sleeping.…

Happy Sunday! Herb Albert was great! We had seats way up but one seat one on one side of the staircase and the other two were on the other. Cheryl went down to complain but did it nicely and they comped us to orchestra seats second row. Amazing seats and wonderful show. We had dinner first at a very nice restaurant so it…

Happy Saturday! A/C is fixed and all is good. Landlord just has to come an remove his portable A/C from my bedroom. Hoping to go to pool for a couple of hours before getting ready to see Herb Albert. We are going to dinner first and since it is in downtown Chicago we are leaving at 4pm. Tomorrow the kids are coming at 11…

Happy Friday. I am without A/C since yesterday. Once home from wake I called my landlord who tried to get a service person but they couldn't come until today. BTW, I am now talking about my landlord's son who is taking over for his father. He came right over with a portable A/C for my bedroom so at least that room is cool.…

Happy Thursday! Going to a wake of the son of an Al Anon member this afternoon. It's over an hour away but his father has been in the program with me as long as I have and is always supportive of everyone. His wife has dementia so this will be hard on him although his faith keeps him strong. There are a few of us going so…

Happy Wednesday! I got up at 6:30am to take Kristy and Carl to the airport. I am tired but will wash their bedding for the next guest and I want to get my car washed because it is full of bugs from driving. I would like to get to pool to see my friend but will see how fast I can get moving. We had a wonderful time and the…

Heading home after we pack up everything. Kristy and Carl will spend the night and I will take them to airport at 7am. It was wonderful being with family. Sandy. One Day at a Time

Everyone but me, my daughter and son in law has gone home. We are here until tomorrow so we are going to the pool for a couple of hours and then on a river boat site seeing cruise. It has been a great reunion and might be our last. We will see, one day at a time. Enjoy your day, Sandy One Day at a Time
