Didn’t feel like making dinner tonight

by

I didn’t feel like cooking dinner tonight. Do you ever have those kind of days?

I wasn’t feeling all that well today and the thought of standing in the kitchen for half an hour preparing dinner was just too much. Normally I don’t mind preparing and cooking dinner. I actually love cooking – just not tonight.

So … when my husband came home I suggested we get some take out food. McDonald’s. Yeah – I know, not a very healthy dinner, but we rarely eat food from places like McDonald’s. On days when I don’t feel like cooking I wish there was a big button in my kitchen that I could said click here or something and then ta da food would suddenly appear. Yeah – I know, I’m dreaming.

What did you have for dinner tonight?





A new opportunity

by

I just got some great news. I’ve been part of the Glam Network for 3 years now. Two of my blogs are listed with them and are part of their advertising network. It’s been a good way to get my sites seen by others as well as a way to make some decent money via advertising.

Well … they just invited me into a very special new advertising network. I have to read all of the details in the information that they just sent me, but it sounds great as far as I can tell. I’ll still have control over my site and advertising choices and when I choose to take part in their offerings. Sounds good doesn’t it?

Darn, I just remembered, I’ve got to call my mother in law. Maybe I won’t be reading the new advertising network information tonight as I’ll be on the phone. LOL She wants to learn more about a health product I was reading about the other day so I think I’ll be talking to her for a while. Sigh …

Bird of prey in my backyard

by

I live in a large city, not too far from down town, but I still get a lot of wildlife in my yard. Perhaps it’s because I have a mature garden in my backyard.

Over the years since I first landscaped my backyard and planted all of my plants I’ve gradually seen more and more birds come into my garden year after year. Everything from Cardinals to Blue Jays frequent my garden regularly, and Hummingbirds visit throughout the summer.

Earlier today I saw something that I don’t normally see in my backyard. I saw a hawk of some kind. It might even have been a Peregrine Falcon. I ran inside the house to get my Nikon binoculars so I could get a better look but by the time I got back to the backyard the bird was gone.

Whatever the bird of prey was, it was pretty big! It was sitting on top of the electric pole in the corner of my backyard – perhaps looking for mice?

Do you ever see wildlife or unusual birds in your backyard?

Exhausted – I just can’t sleep

by

I’m so exhausted. I feel like I haven’t slept in days or even weeks.

Actually … that’s partially true. Ever since the end of August I’ve been having a lot of trouble sleeping or rather staying asleep because of a medication I started taking around that time. I think I was just starting to sleep a little better near the end of September but then at the beginning of October I started yet another new medication (Zyban to stop smoking) and that is now causing trouble sleeping. So I have two medications affecting my sleep.

If I keep going like this I’m really going to have to do a search for best under eye cream for dark circles because I’m starting to look as tired as I feel.

I usually don’t have much trouble falling asleep or staying asleep and I’ve never had a medication affect my sleep so badly. It’s terrible. If I keep having this much trouble sleeping I’m going to have to call my doctor and see if she can help me out.

Do you ever have a lot of trouble sleeping?

I think I lost a couple more pounds

by

I haven’t weighed myself this week, but I think I’ve continue to lose weight.

As of last week I’ve lost at least 18 pounds since early September. If this keeps up I’m going to have people I know coming up to me and asking me what the best fat burner is as they notice my weight loss. LOL

I’d better not lose much more weight. I already need to buy new clothes! New pants, new bras etc … everything I have is loose on me. Even my glasses are loose!
