ONE productive thing you did today

[[wa...]]

Made an appetizer for a "friends-giving" party I went to today. I am not a cook and hate the kitchen so this was a huge deal for me! Recipe said it would take 35 minutes with prep. It took me 3 times that long. (In my defense, I made twice as many as the recipe calls for.) But they were delicious! And I didn't burn myself or anything!

 

Cranberry brie bites! Yum!

Good job, I'm not much in the kitchen so when I do cook, if it's good, I want lots of compliments    so I wii give you a compliment.  Mary.  🍪🍮🎂

 

Thanks, Mary! And congrats on the pt! I feel like mine is finally starting to help, too! Shoot, now that I say that, I realize I only got halfway through my exercises today. Gotta go get those done!

Not exactly an accomplishment, but... last Saturday DH bought me a cookie.  Since I'm mainly off of sugar, I treated myself to a bite of cookie every day for a week 

 

That's so sweet of your husband!

 

Ginger, it really was very dear of him

Physical therapy this morning, went really well, thinking it may be finally starting to untighten some of these hard muscles.  Giving me hope anyway, then ran to store.

Mary, good to hear your PT is progressing! 

 

I'm not well versed on your physical history but wanted to mention I've been through multiple rounds of pt. - and always have the hard muscle knots to deal with.  I went to Target and bought a padded yoga rolling wand - like a narrow rolling pin but padded 

I have been able to work out the knots above my knees very gently using this, so much so that they can disappear overnight.  If you think one of these might help I could locate the name of the one I bought. 

Just thought I'd mention it 

Hope today is very good to you!

I have been hosting a family member visiting impromptu for over a week now in my house.  Guys, please pray for me that this visit is over soon, so I can get my life back!  It's so painful, I just would like to lay down and have some quiet time, please!  :'(

I vacuumed the living room, hallway, girls' room (pet rats).

I can function again..!!

Spent a few hours in the tractor yesterday doing ever decreasing circles... I did note the parallel to healing.. -Ever decreasing circles with many bumps along the way...

But the finished product is a great reward...

DH and I put two coats of beautiful soft gray paint on son's bedroom wall. We're doing one wall at a time 

in prep for him coming home at Christmas.

Wow, Ginger:

Quite an accomplishment!! I haven't had to guts to study for the test  , so I'm still a resident. Ha, but a Resident Alien. I kinda like that phrase. But seriously, your sister deserves big congratulations!

Thanks Katz! I'm a Resident Alien too!  - that term is kind a funny to me. Nowadays the government uses and promotes the term "Permanent Resident" instead. Trust me, you can pass the citizenship test easily with the intellectual well of knowledge you possess, you would hardly have to study. That's my next project after New Year's, will file for citizenship and get it done. I've been eligible for a long time, just haven't gotten around to it, it's time to get it done, I've lived in the US for 30 years now.

Went to the bank and did grocery shopping.

Went for a walk, made breakfast and showered.

Physical therapy, a great hair trim, and cleaned the damn kitchen, which if I turn my back, will be dirty again
