The support and ideas we get from each other are inspiring. Many of us don't have the energy to do much of anything except exist. Then, I think we can surprise ourselves with fun and cool things we can manage to do.
Since I've been with Mom in her house for eleven months (man, has it been that long!?) I've been wanting to work on my writing. Since being here I bottomed out of energy and couldn't accomplish anything. I brought a draft screenplay. This past weekend Sister 1 took Mom for the weekend and I finally got the "umph" to finish the rewrite. I am so tickled!
What fun, cool, or activity you're proud of yourself for?
It was a great break.
Thanks for asking MM.
I suppose that my latest adventure was last week. I went to see my favorite performer Robert Plant in concert! We were fortunate enough to get FRONT row center tickets, so, it was perfect. It was AWESOME!
And, I met so many nice people at the show! OMG. So much fun! I used to attend concerts all the time, but, stopped when life got so hectic and demanding. I have vowed to go more often now.
And, I've made some more moves on starting a new profession! I don't want to state what, but, I hope it will be amusing and a change of pace. I also hope it will enable me to retire comfortably. lol
AND, I'm now down by 50 pounds! Slow and steady is my motto, so, physically, I feel so much more better. Still some to go though.
The only cool thing I have done was gave some homeless people food today.
Not too often get to do cool and fun things. Hopefully as you have done I will be able to finish my writing soon.
I AM THANKFUL!
L has found a really nice one story rambler totally redone with a fully finished basement and manageable yard. I fell very blessed in haveing such a caring daughter. It is a little larger than our current house but with a much smaller yard. Plenty of room for DH and I to get away from each other. For the first time in my life I am going to have granite counter tops. Does that mean I will have to cook gourmet meals?
I am getting ready to build a house. I have looked for a house already built for a year. The prices for already built homes are absurd! But, they are selling because it is impossible to find a half way decent rental here. Can build what I want for less than the same house would be if it were already built. I never would have been able to do this in the area where I cared for mom, the prices are through the roof!
