today, I got dressed, lol… I know that is a big deal for me and a lot of you, I’ll bet… not having to worry about anyone coming to the door makes pjs perfectly acceptable all day…
in the morning I cooked spaghetti and let it cool down so that the sugars would fly through my system when I warm it up…
looked in the fridge and found part of a jar of spaghetti sauce which I used as a base for my sauce…
the addition of spices, A1, ketchup, and soy sauce, with time to mingle together, makes for a tasty addition to the spaghetti… also added some frozen meatballs to get in the required protein… smelled lovely as it was simmering…
while that was cooking, I went out and shovelled between the front steps and the driveway… snow seemed heavier than in the backyard yesterday, lol… and my back is not so happy just now;-(…
my shovelers came by this morning and did the driveway and sidewalk (but not the connecting area)… very happy they were able to get that done as it needs to be clear for the mail carrier… and Tuesday my grocery order should arrive as well…
supper was tasty and there is enough sauce and spaghetti for two more meals… yay…
rather proud of myself… I have barely done anything for ages, but today I was able to accomplish three things…
first, I went into the backyard and shovelled a path to the hot tub… my shoveler hasn’t been by… likely he is staying at home like everyone else;-)…
being very careful of my back, I worked slowly and made sure there wasn’t too much snow in each shovelful… now I can go out to soak my back if I want;-)…
came in, had a break, and then tidied the hallway bookshelf… I’d organized it back in 2014… made me laugh when I realized it was that long ago…
finally, I redid the living room table drawer… put sea shells in two of them and left the others as they were… one has all the retirement cards and the other has a number of pictures and maps from our trip to Hawaii…
looks good…
pleased with all that got done… maybe I will keep on getting things done;-)…
my daughter sent me a calendar wth daily yoga for April, so this morning I decided to do some… I got an old yoga mat out, arranged my phone so I could see it from the mat and started the video…
unfortunately I twisted my back in the process so I’ve had to be very careful with everything I’ve done for the rest of the day…
since the girls were little I occasionally end up with a hurt lower back… sadly, it usually takes ages to return to normal… there’s never an obvious action to cause the problem… it just means being careful about standing for too long and twisting the wrong way when sitting…
my solution today has been to quietly sit in the living room and read… so happy I found the books on Kobo…
for a good portion of the day it snowed and late in the afternoon the sun came out and it looked beautiful with everything covered in snow… especially as I didn’t have to leave the house…
as I was sitting and reading I looked out to see the most beautiful sky…
seeing this stunning view was a very special moment, which I enjoyed…
interesting weather today… I took pictures between 8 and noon as the snow came and went on the deck, lol…
actually got dressed… put on a long dress that I picked up on Maui last April…
flowers and turtles brightened my day…
I also ordered dinner in… this is the first time I’ve done this since I got home in January… was very careful when I brought in the bag and removed the food… this is what I had for my dinner…
since then I have washed my hands many times and been very careful not to touch my face…
I ordered a couple of items so will have four or five meals to take me through the next week;-)…
was also able to order groceries that will come in about a week and a half… the system is overloaded so I am pleased to get on the list at all…
