Even though this week wasn’t as “exciting” as last week, it still had its moments…some that were really unexpected and unwanted and some pretty cool ones. Here are the highlights for this week’s Thankful Thursday.
1. Yahoo! Our baby girl came home to spend time with us and stayed overnite. She’s been married 2 1/2 years and lives about 20 minutes away and we all still feel so close. She’s the one I homeschooled for 14 years before entering public high school. We had a good long visit into the wee hours of the night (at least she and I did lol) and it sure felt like old times. 🙂
2. Halfway thru the week I got hit by the unwanted ‘winter bug’ and had to be off work for a day and a half. At first I thought it was possibly food poisoning becos of all the bloating, but then I thought it was the flu with the aches and diarrhea. (sorry for TMI) There was no vomiting or fever, so I concluded it was some kind of virus that lasted about 48 hours for the most part. It wasn’t any fun as you can imagine – or maybe know from experience. I’m almost 100% back to my healthy self as I type this and am positive it would have lasted longer if I wasn’t on the fitness and health journey that is my lifestyle.
3. I finally took the time and set up my Time Machine on my laptop so I could connect my Seagate Slim Mac portable drive which I received as a birthday gift (in December). I know that’s pretty bad timing especially since this happened almost a year ago. Yes, I even blogged about it and still didn’t do it. And yes, I have had challenges with procrastination. My bad. But, it’s done now and I can breathe a little easier.
4. How many of you love music? With our newly purchased car we have XM Sirius for a 3 month trial. I have it set to 70s on 7 and oh em gee! The memories came flooding back! It’s amazing to me how much music has impacted my life. I hear certain songs and the feelings I felt back then come right back even when I haven’t felt them for decades. People, things and events I haven’t thought about in ages are as clear as though it happened yesterday.
5. Ok, it was just barely light when I had to leave the parking lot after work today. Not much longer and I’ll be driving to AND from work in the daylight. Yay!
Keep staying warm!
