Well it is Monday.  I give up!  Yes I give up!  I am so tired of my achy back and knee and now my legs are giving me fits.  Doctors just tell me it's my age.  Well that does not get everything done I have to do.  I have told Mr DH that we need to downsize and he says oh your just getting lazy.  Well I am not lazy but I am in pain.  So I am going to come up with a plan.  I started on my Tumeric again and Calcium and vitamin E so we will see in a months time how that goes.  I am also going to start setting up areas in my home to make it easier to clean.  Down stair I am going to purchase a light vac to keep things tidy down there and another broom.  I purchased a spray mop for upstairs and I am going to purchase some more of the reusable pads.  Yes I was going to make them but phooy on that.  I am tired of trying to economize when it comes to things I desperately need.  I am also going to downsize my hobbies.  I do not need to do so many.  I want to spend more time just reading and relaxing.  Not worrying about sewing something for someone so they will like me.  I am done.  I know I am on a pity party but I have just come to the end of my rope and the knot is slipping.

On a Happier note I got out my snowman spoon holder that I purchased with a dear friend who has since passed away.  And yes it is chipped but that is ok.
I also lit my scentsy candles to cheer me up.  I love candles.  These are not quite candles but they are lights during the day and that makes me happy.

We got up early and set off for Walmart to get there before the crowd and so glad that we did.  We splurged on some grapes.  They have gotten quite costly however Mr likes them in the evening so they are worth the splurge.

And last but not least I decided to get each family some vitamin C for Christmas.  We cannot afford
gifts for everyone so this will do.  

As soon as I get my baking done and deliver all my gifts I am done.  I will be so relieved to have this year over.  It has been a achy year.  I am praying 2019 is better.

  1. Hello, and thanks for stopping. I got a light weight vacuum. Good move. Talk to your doctor about well timed pain meds. Acetaminophen before bed and when you get up in the morning, for instance. I took turmeric for a long time, and finally decided the expense did not justify any benefit. I certainly did not perceive a benefit. Pain is the biggest enemy, and I've never been above enlisting the aid of a doctor to keep it at bay.
