I have a crock pot of hamburger veggie soup cooking. It smells so good. We are doing meals on wheels tonight and delivering soup to my sick family members. I will make some beer bread muffins in a bit to go with it. Maybe a homemade dinner cooked with love and healing intentions will help everyone feel better.

I have a pan of peanut butter Rice Krispy treats to take to Ellexia since we are going to town. We were texting today and she decided those sounded good.

I haven’t managed to get anything else done today. It is windy and cold outside today. It was in the mid 30’s with wind chill in the mid 20’s when I went down to do chicken chores this morning. I opened their door to let them outside but not sure they ever stuck their heads out the door. I don’t blame them for staying inside today.

We got some rain last night. The ground wasn’t very wet when I went down to do chores so am thinking we didn’t get much. The wind and rain woke me up last night at some point and I checked and it was a gust of over 50 MPH. It was in a big hurry to get somewhere last night. The sun finally popped out this afternoon and it looks warmer out but not sure it is.

I haven’t heard from my Endocrinologist office today about what they want to do about my low TSH levels. Am guessing it must be her day off or else they are waiting on the other blood test to come back so she only has to reply once. They are really good about getting back to me so I’m sure I will hear something tomorrow.

The Vo-Tech called me this morning and I now have a dental cleaning appointment for Thursday morning at 8:00. I haven’t had a cleaning since last March so am due for one. I am grateful they called. Hoping it is safe to go and have that done. If you want a good place to go have your teeth cleaned very thoroughly and for only $20 call them and book an appointment. It takes several hours but they do a great job and a real dentist checks you over when they are done. I have gone for the last several years and have not been disappointed yet.

I need to start thinking about what I am going to get the kids for Christmas. We usually do a grab bag type of thing but we may not be gathering this year. I don’t do much for Christmas for them but need to get something for them. It is almost time to start my Christmas baking. That is the only part of Christmas I love.

Still feeling unsettled and restless today. Having trouble getting grounded and holding it. There is a lot of things on my mind and I am having trouble letting go of some of the worry I am holding on to. Worrying about something has never once change the outcome and it is a waste of energy to worry but sometimes that knowledge doesn’t make it to my heart brain.

Grateful for the rain we got last night, grateful for the smell of soup in the air this afternoon, and grateful for the Vo-Tech dental program.
