Since I worked this past Sunday they were to give me a day off during the week and that day is today! YEAH! I'm looking forward to it so much I awoke at 4 AM! So much for sleeping "IN". My internal clock is just set and it's hard to change it. I remember in my 20's I'd stay up all hours of the night and then sleep all day - those days are over. I do enjoy an afternoon nap now and will perhaps take one this afternoon.
Yesterday I cut my right thumb pretty good at work; it's not looking too bad now but what a mess at work trying to get it cleaned out and wrapped. I'm keeping it clean and dry and have triple antibiotic on it so it should heal quickly. I was so glad when they said I was off today so that I can keep from bumping and abusing the injury. Tomorrow I will be back in the middle of it all and that is soon enough.
Christmas has been on my mind a lot these days. I see things I know my siblings would love but refrain from buying as we don't' really have the money right now. And then there is that little voice that says I shouldn't even worry about it as they don't stay in touch and I grow weary of being the one to always reach out to them. I've always had a loving and giving nature and it's hard for me not to give. UGH! I'm just so torn over it all. Perhaps I will just focus on the ones that make an effort to stay in touch with me and let that be it. I miss the closeness of Family.
I need to go through what we have in the cabinets and freezer so I know what I have left for meals for the next week or so. Creativity will have to come into play. I want to use up most of what we have that has been around awhile BEFORE I buy any new. Yesterday was a lovely breezy day and it got me to thinking about soup so perhaps I will make up a batch of vegetable soup today.
I know I'm all over the place this morning but my mind is racing with all these thoughts - just trying to get them all organized and prioritized in my brain! Perhaps today I will also get those PJ's finished!

If in doubt make soup that is my motto. I love soup you can trow anything in it and it always turns out.
ReplyDeleteAbout Christmas don't worry I will not be giving to many presents this year, I may make things It is always hard when young children are involved. Maybe I can frame some of my photos.
Take care of that thumb and a day off should be a day off not all work. Relax a little. B
I hope you ended up having a nice relaxing day Becky; help recharge those batteries as they say :-)
