Random Things

1.  Vacuum -- I ordered a floor and area rug canister vacuum by Miele.  It came yesterday AFTER I did floors so stay tuned for a review.  It's the compact version of a super expensive vacuum.  Still lots of $$, but it should be worth it.  My cheap upright is failing quickly.

2.  New Book Club -- I haven't gone yet.  Probably going in May (I've already read the book, but I'll need a refresher).  Rumor has it, the book rarely gets discussed.  Ugh.  I'll give it a try though.

3.  Reading -- I'm tiptoeing slowly through a mystery book -- who's the killer and why.   The Poet (Michael Connelly)  It's okay.  As usual with this genre, the ending will decide if it's worth the read.  I want to get back to some regular reading and some personal growth books.

4.  Apple Breakfast Cake -- Served warm.  Easy to make.  It's an oil based batter with ONE apple.  It's what's for TEA today with a friend.  She's coming over to see the house and catch up.

5.  Cleaning -- I'll spend the afternoon at the old house cleaning.  Still upset with the realtor.  Did I mention MY ENTIRE BODY HURTS?

6.  Easter -- Celebrating at kids place on Saturday with DIL parents.  I'm bringing mac & cheese - yea, easy.  Sunday we're going to brunch at the place the kids got engaged.  They don't take reservations and it's 7 of us -- that should be interesting, but where else do we have to be so no big deal.  It's our son's birthday too.  #25.  Wow.

7.  Groomer -- Parker did much better yesterday.  Between medication and some logistical changes, he had no problem walking after the groom.

8.  Eating -- another shitty evening of GF pizza, chips and wine.  Crap.  Stress eating after visiting the painting at the old house.  I need to get out the URGE book and start fighting the good fight again.  STOP BUFFERING MY FEELINGS.

9.  Other healthy habits -- not bad.  I'm meditating, journaling and drinking my veggies in the morning.  I start well and finish horribly.  Can I change that today?  I don't have a lot of confidence.  It's FULL PMS -- cliff hanger.  Stay tuned ...

10.  The End (because I wanted to end on #10, solid number - hah)  Later gators.
