dec 27
another long day ahead. i have to go in early as i moved a shower from yesterday to today. will need to bring extra snacks today. also have to work this weekend, split shift so by monday i am going to be very tired. 3 nights of less than 5 hours of sleep will do that . not sure if i will ever be able to retire. i know that the public pension does not pay enough. there is no way i could afford an apt these days. go figure.
i started a new project this week. i am making a purple blanket for heather. its for xmas next year. i just hope she will like it. its hard to make something for someone when its going to be a surprise. i am keeping it simple as she is like brent was, very ocd.
there is a page on facebook that counts the days until spring. of course i am on that page looking forward to my flowers and plants in the garden. last spring was the first time all the plum trees bloomed in thousands of flowers. it was so beautiful i would stop and stare at them ever;y day. in the end there was thousands of plums as well. i made plum jam., gave lots of plums away, ate lots. they taste so different when fresh from the tree. i got in the habit of picking a pocket full of them after work.
this past october 26th, my ex husband died suddenly. i suspect of a heart attack. he was very over weight and was not looking after himself. i had not talked to him in months so i have no idea how things where. but as with anything life does go on. i dont miss him , but it sure was a shock to say the least. so i am a widow twice over. we where still leagally married. i have no desire do go through it again. so will keep the company of cats. so far my ex husbands drug plan is still working, bonus day. since most of my meds are outragously expensive.
on my own i have cut back on one of my meds as my sugar was going too low. so instead of 4 per day i take 2, and blood work is coming back great. i just did not want to passout at work from low sugar.
i have taken to eating some freezer meals. cheaper and i dont waste alot of food. i am not eating much lately anyway. so it really works out.
time to head out. have to pay the bills……
