Four more tax returns completed. Had a few new things to learn today but it was another easy day. We could have done a few more as I stood around with nothing to do for part of the time. The people are most appreciative of our service.
Got Ellexia to school on time with a smile on her face this morning. She had time to eat a bowl of cereal before we had to leave. This morning routine is getting easier!
Went out to the country house and did chores. Had to cart the trash down to the curb today. It was slick and muddy and was a job to get it down the drive today. The wheels on the cart picked up mud and resisted my efforts to pull it. My boots picked up mud and were heavy and I was sliding in the mud. Gave the dogs their HeartGuard and chickens water. The chicken coop is one big mud pen.
I will go pick Ellexia up a little after 3:00 this afternoon. She showed me where to be when I dropped her off this morning. Little Caesar’s has Village School night tonight so we are going to get her a pizza for dinner. I don’t know if they have salads or not – I may have to fix me something when we get home as I don’t eat pizza.
Tomorrow will be an easy day as I don’t have a tax preparation shift to do in the morning. I will have to find something to do all day. May go out to the country house and spend the day there.
I went to JCPenney’s and got Tagen three pair of sweat pants. He will have to try them on and if they fit I will get them washed up for him and then go through his drawers and find some that are too small for him for me to take home.
My cough is much better again today. It is almost gone. I did have one big coughing fit this morning after I got up. Ellexia was getting concerned about me for a bit. Once I got through that I haven’t coughed much today. Still working on drinking lots of extra fluids to help wash this crud out. Grateful to be feeling better. I am tired today again but I haven’t been sleeping very well the last two nights. There is no place like home!
Almost halfway done with my babysitting job. So far so good. This week is going by quickly. It has gone very smoothly so far. Trusting that will continue
Sitting in my peaceful valley. I am getting back on track with my eating. Maybe it is a good thing I am not home this week and haven’t been weighing each day. Hopefully by Saturday morning I will be back to my normal weight. It was a bit disheartening to have fallen off the wagon a bit after going a year clean. Maybe I needed a little kick in the pants wake-up call. I was able to avoid sugar and flour but ate grain and more chips than I should have. My tummy did not approve of the extra food or the grains.
Grateful for another successful day of tax preparations, grateful to be able to deliver Ellexia to school on time and with a smile on her face, and grateful my cough is almost gone.
