Wednesday, Hubs check up was good!

   


   We just got back from the oncologist and  Hubs has not progressed at all in 6 months, so that is good.  We are in a holding pattern and may be for a few more years. We were both pleased and so was the doctor. So that is one less thing to worry about .

     I did get a lot of sewing done yesterday and I need to get in and attack the piles this afternoon.  Made a big crockpot of chili yesterday and it is sure good. I might be freezing a little if there is enough left over from to nights meal. I am going to make a pot of split pea soup with some of the ham I froze a couple of weeks ago.  It is just soup weather.  I love soup.

     Slugs called me from Ocean City this morning the dog.  Hubs and I should be there with them. This covid thing is the pitts.  I could really use a trip to the beach right now.

     Last night I went and bought  two large bags of Halloween candy and only came home with one bag, so I returned to the store with my receipt this morning asking about the other bag and it was waiting for me.  Our church requested large bags for sacks they are making up for the kids as they cannot trick or treat this year.

     I need to replace the runner rugs from my old house.  They are dirty and stained in some places, just have not found what I want yet. But daughter ordered some from a company that allows you to request the length so that might be an option.  The floors in this house really show dog and cat hair. If I don't sweep and vacuum every other day it starts to waft around in clumps. Thank goodness the house is smaller. I am thinking of getting one of those powerful rechargeable stick vacuums. Do any of you have any experience with them? I would still keep my big vacuum for the carpets, but I feel like I should vacuum everyday and I don't want to lug that big thing around.  

     I have eaten way to much of the candy, must get it out of the house.  NOW!


Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.

  1. Great news!!!

    This year I bought things for Halloween the kids will enjoy, but something I won't be into eating at all.

    God bless.

  3. So happy for your hubs results. Will keep praying for you all.
    I have not bought candy this year - I quit doing Halloween last year. It scares me to do it alone now - you just never know what could happen.
    Blessings

  4. Wonderful news!
    I have a reputation in the neighborhood for being the big candy bar lady. Once you give a full size bar you can never go back to the big bags. The upside is I am not tempted to open them until Halloween night. If you eat one Hershey's bar it is noticeable. You can eat quite a few fun size bars and no one ever knows. And if no one knows the calories don't count, right?

    1. My mother always did that. If you have to have a reputation that is a good one.

  5. the second wave is starting and in a pandemic it is usually the 2nd wave that kills the majority of people. You baby boomers are all going to die of corona-virus and finally the world will be able to make progress when you boomers are all dead

  7. Very happy for you and your hubs and the good news. I breath a sigh of relief when mine comes home with good blood pressure. I don't have a stick vacuum, but I ahd a very light weigh Shark which I can detach parts to make even lighter. I love it.

  8. I have a robotic vacuum, a Yeedi, and I absolutely love it. I do need to clear up things on the floor (rugs with tassles, shoes with laces, etc.), but once I do that, it runs all by itself and calls out if it gets stuck. It was about $240 on Amazon. I know there are reviews for others that are specific for pet hair
