I talked to Avery today. We are going to try and do a phone strengthening session two days a week. What this means is that we will walk through some strengthening exercises twice weekly and hold each other accountable. It is not a resolution, but we are going to try to do stretching and strength building together. Twice a week is better than none a week. Plus we can chat while we do it.
Avery shared that her resolution is to put mood as her focus of the day. She is trying to set up a more meaningful morning routine that doesn’t involve scrolling on her phone. She will have her tea, be present in the moment and set herself up for success. I thought it was great that she had a plan already.
Today I did meal prep and stocked away 27 more meals in the basement freezer. There is meatloaf, pork, chicken, spaghetti and I made some veggie soup for myself. Yay!
I have an abundance of onions and peppers so I blended them up and am making ice cubes for when I make chili in the future. I am trying to be less wasteful and utilize as much as I can.
I took the dogs out in the rain as I went to empty the ash bucket for the fireplace. I trudged across the driveway all bundled up to make sure I stayed dry. For some reason the dogs were very excited and running all around like fools excitedly wondering where I was going.
As I rounded the corner of our barn, I was the victim of a blind attack. Moe was running full speed (excitedly thinking we were going for a walk in the field) and jumped up on me from behind. I never saw it coming. He knocked me off kilter and I began to slow motion fall. I threw the ash bucket away from me so I wouldn’t be covered in ashes.
BOOM! I sort of caught myself with my right arm and right hip. I might have called Moe an unpleasant name. My face was an inch from the snow.
I was most angry that my PJ pants got wet. I got up, finished emptying the ash bucket and wondered how this was going to feel in the morning. Dumb dog! Who gets that excited in the rain?
We headed to a friend’s house for the Bills game. Sadly, they lost. But I had fun eating and chatting.
The weather is gross out. The dogs don’t want to go to the bathroom in the cold rain. Tomorrow is going to be very windy. I am worried I will lose power and not be able to work. I have a back up plan if that happens.
I worry with 50 mph winds, Ferguson is going to blow away. I might have to tether the little dude before he goes out to potty so he doesn’t blow away.
Of all the houses on our street, our side of the road traditionally is the first to lose power. I am not looking forward to it. I have my grill ready so we can eat….and heat up coffee. Without coffee…..the day will go poorly for all involved! GUARANTEED!
