Down To The Toes

 Yesterday was cloudy and cool. The high got to 5C. This morning it is cloudy and 2C. Today is supposed to have showers with a high of 5C. 

Lifestyle

Daughter-in-law and I went to the city yesterday. Our first stop was at the large Walmart store. We got items for catering at the hall, for her, and four items for me. The store wasn't too busy so we got done in good time. 

Our next stop was the Wholesale store. We couldn't get frozen carrots so bought a 50 lb bag which we will have to peel and cut for the next 2 dinners. We did get everything else we needed. 

On the way home, we stopped and bought burritos for lunch. I was very careful with toppings as I knew it could have a bit more salt than I usually have. I made sure the rest of my day was lower in salt. The burrito was exactly what we needed.

Once home, we ate lunch, unloaded and transferred items from one car to another and I came home. After putting away my 4 items I headed out to order or pick up my prescriptions. They were ready. I had a lovely visit with my neighbour who is one of the pharmacists. We love to chat about everything. 

Once home, I sat down and was really tired. I am putting it to sleeping poorly at night. I know that worrying about a lot of things has me tossing and turning. I did try to nap but it didn't happen. Last night I was awake for almost an hour which isn't good for me today. 

Daughter got a bit of good news from the mediator yesterday. The mediator is now working with her rather than being nasty to her. Maybe if her ex agrees to the property division list they can finalize the separation by the end of the year. As a friend told her, it's only stuff and you have other bigger items to negotiate on. 

Sewing

None done as I was tired and needed to rest. 

Knitting

I sat and knit last night to relax. I got the foot and the first 9 rounds of the toe done. 

I can hardly wait to see how it looks when done. 

Thoughts

    This week is looking like I will be really busy. I am out to make sandwiches this morning. I have osteopathy on Tuesday morning, carrots after dinner. Thursday I have to help set up the hall for the dinner and then help with catering. I have some things I need to do at home and am starting to feel a bit of panic set in that they won't get done.

    My SI joint is sore and then not sore. I am wondering if it is tight due to the weather we are having. I know the muscles are sore due to the weather. I'll find out on Tuesday what is up. 

    I had more salt (still under the daily recommended dose). yesterday. I had only one minor cramp in my hands. Thank you to the person who said to put 1/4 tsp of salt in a container for the day. I will be doing that. 

Today

I am out to make sandwiches shortly. Once home, I want to make chicken stock for soup. I hope I have the energy to sew this afternoon. I am out for dinner tonight with family. I will try to knit when I get home. I am working on a slower pace day when I get home this morning. 

Until the next time............................................................................
