Thursday ~ full and more full

Whew. 

I feel like I can't catch my breath much this week. 

I've had fun doing daily morning pots of tea...

I had a friend over for lunch, which was nice.

I had a walk in the morning.

I was trying to have walks more regularly the

week that I broke my foot and in that regard,

I feel like I am just getting near where I wanted to be 

before my ankle broke. 

I had a phone meeting and then a great phone talk as well.

I felt like I was doing dishes all day.

I got amazon deliveries 

(new headphones that work for cell phones to listen and talk, 

and lights for above the oven that I installed.)

I made chicken fajitas.

Oil splattered so more clean up than normal. 

I had a delicious small mint chocolate ice cream sandwich.

Trader Joes. I loved it.  I totally want to stock up on those!

So....I really wanted to get back to writing my essays this week.

That totally did not happen.

What did happen was daily walks, various visits with friends,

and keeping house in good order and doing things for my Husband and I.

I have such big dreams for writing essays but I have to do

the wife/housekeeping/cooking + friendship building things + more

daily walks.  I need to get back to the smoothie making too. 

Tomorrow, though, I hope to go to liturgy locally in the morning,

go out for Indian food (by myself!) and do an errand.

We still have unbloggable stressors that, while we are able to 

handle them more than we used to, are still present in our lives

and I would say they are wearying. 

But I see that we are so blessed and I try to focus on all

the good in our lives.
