Exhausted

 Yesterday was a mix of sun, clouds, rain, and wind. The high got to 15C and then it dropped all day. By 5 pm it was 9C. This morning it is cloudy and 6C. Today is supposed to be cloudy with drizzle and a high of 10C. 

Lifestyle

I was exhausted yesterday but I had to push through. I was out to get groceries at 9 am and the store was quiet. I got everything I needed and left. Once home, I put away the groceries and laid down on the bed to rest. I did not sleep as text messages came in. 

I was to the hall just before 12:30 to help decorate for Christmas. I didn't want to do it but I did it. The plan was -- if 2 of us, just the tree and a couple of items, if 3 or more the time limit was 90 minutes. Four of us decorated the hall simply in 90 minutes. Not decorations hanging from the ceiling. When the time was up, we cleaned up and the other two ladies headed home.

Daughter-in-law and I had to change the message on the announcement board so down we went. It was cool and windy. She hands me the letters she doesn't need and keeps those she needs. Between us, we get the new announcement up. As we were doing the last of it, the skies opened up and we were caught in a heavy shower. We laughed about it and then headed back to the hall, cleaned up the remaining letters and went home. 

Once home I sat on the couch and with in a short period of time, I fell asleep and slept for 20 minutes. I was still tired when I woke up and after an early dinner I was in bed early and slept well. 

I did not sew or knit yesterday. That was asking for a disaster. 

Thoughts

    I am doing the household inventory for daughter via photos as the mediator asked her to do it. She is in the house and her ex cannot help due to a protection order. While she is chasing paper work, I can do the inventory. At the moment, I am done as the areas left are full of stuff that will take too long to photograph. She now needs to have someone help do it but I say he needs to pay for that as most of it is his stuff he has stored downstairs over the years.

    Marianne, I am glad you like the red ribbon on the stocking over the other one. I do to. The more I look at it, the more I like it. I am glad you love the mug rug. It really finishes the placemat. I will be excited to use it this year. I can have it out until sometime in January as it is more winter themed. 

    The first part of this week is busy with appointments and meetings and then it will be quiet after that. I need to remember to pace myself so I don't get exhausted. I know Wednesday will be the hardest as I have to help make sandwiches and then have an evening meeting which I will be late getting home. That could leave me tired on Thursday.  

Today

I am out to physio this morning and then will be home to do some house work until I go to the doctor's at 11 am. Once home, I hope to sew on the doll's jeans this afternoon. Tonight I want to knit on the afghan and socks. 

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