Catching Up & Stuff
A Winter Sunset in Vermont |
Rain is in the forecast for this afternoon. Up early, I hope to finish errands and puttering before then. After a spin on my exercise bike, I want to watch the rain as I pretend it is an April shower. I will sip a flavored hot tea. No cookies with my tea because the two boxes of Girl Scout cookies I bought over the weekend are gone.
Interesting, after such a long time dealing with knee pain (last injection March 2023), it is weird to not have that issue. There is a feeling of loss. It is as if my brain is asking me if I'm sure I want to walk like this. What happened to the limp?
Recently, I've been watching YouTube videos of abandoned house restorations. There's a guy in Newfoundland that renovated an island cottage that is a good watch.
Puttering is progressing well. By Spring, I should be ready to unpack all the summer clothes I barely finished putting away.
Today, working on sweep up week, I've sorted WiFi connection issues, two blogs, (1 published), and what earrings I'm wearing today. The published blog is a few years old. I haven't posted an update since about 2023.
In all, I think I have about a dozen blogs with about 3 or 4 published. A Blogspot early blog is still published in order to save the 2010 date that it began. My first blog here in 2008 was deleted by my mistake.
Enjoy your day!
Oh, I wanted to buy some Girls Scout cookies at the store, but didn't have cash with me. I love the chocolate mint ones. It's time to get those Spring clothes out soon. I'm glad you woke up with no knee pain or limp. Now, I must get some of those Girl Scout cookies. They go nicely with a hot cup of tea. : )

Sheri,
DeleteChocolate Mint and Trefoils are the cookies I bought. They are expensive for the amount.
Abandoned houses - one of my favourite things! I'll be sure to check that site out. We evidently had some raindrops this afternoon and nice to see the temps are above zero. Not by much, but still.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne,
DeleteThat renovation is a rough one, 2 story cottage. How he did so much by himself is amazing.
Great the limp is gone. Our bodies are resilient!
ReplyDeleteI will watch that video too.
Marie,
DeleteIt is amazing how many places need restoration.
Watching what creative people do with abandoned houses is always interesting. I'll look up the one in Newfoundland. A bit of faint sunshine here today.
ReplyDeleteLorrie,
DeleteThe amount of work it takes to even clear out an abandoned house boggles my mind. And it still looks like fun.

Isn't it weird when you finally feel good? It's like you don't know quite what to do with yourself. Or trust it. I hope I haven't missed the Girl Scouts, though it probably would be best if I had.
ReplyDeleteJeanie,
DeletePain gone does have a separation anxiety factor. It is strange to experience.
Then I remember the other knee. 🥴

So glad there were no Girl Scout cookie sales at the supermarket this week or my resolved might have gone, but sure you enjoyed yours! You mentioned unpublished posts and I have a few of those as well, but none in the near-completion stage. One was posted this week with more to go, eventually.
ReplyDeleteBeatrice,
DeleteWalmart is where I bought my Girl Scout cookies. I haven’t seen them set up at the grocery stores.
I still have my Girl Scout pin.
