Good morning everyone! I have not much to report yesterday other than a nice morning meditation and gratitudes practice. I finished my 49th book of my 50 reads in 2021 Goodreads challenge - can I make it to 50 in the next five days?
I also finished the reindeer turd
and am back on my WW program as of this morning. LOL! One of my gifts was an oven thermometer and it turns out I baked the reindeer turd at 250F even though the display is 350F, which may account for the ahem, "moistness."
I hadn't wanted a digital oven, but that's all that came in on the boat last year and there wasn't a choice.
Pam, thank goodness your white Christmas cabin event was curtailed by the power coming back on before the situation got stale. Your little spot of heaven seems to have had some unusual weather extremes this year. I'm so happy you had a wonderful gathering!
Summer Breeze, it's good to read you had an enjoyable Christmas with family. I sure hope you can come up with a plan that works around your sciatica.
Diane, the Bissell sounds great. I've been looking at those but question how well-sealed our hardwoods are. It's a good investment for you, especially with your special needs pets and furry guests.
Donna, I did not know Jessica lost her Peanut.
How sad for her. We VF'ers also become attached to our workout pets' appearances. Jane Adams' core program is a good one for this time of year, isn't it? It checks the strength, stretch and relaxation boxes efficiently and gently. Sending hugs about the crossroads. These past two years sure do highlight them. I have a feeling of "mourning" the adult kids in the family who have all moved away and of family gatherings being conducted via Zoom now.
Well - I am glad to be getting back on a schedule of sorts, even though I will miss being my own master when I go back to work tomorrow. Sleeping in for four days in a row has been surprisingly healing.
What do you think ladies - do we want to continue for 2022? I have enjoyed checking in with you all this year, and visitors who join us from time to time. I wonder how our founding member,
GypsyRose, is doing?
Oh yeah - Happy Moan Day! I almost forgot.
