Comments (14)Where the heck did this week go to? Wed already and I'm just saying hello now? Must be all the birds out singing taking off with my clock or something. Time sure flies! Great to see you Wodka, Maddie, Dee and Carolyntx. I too am happy you're okay. Wodka I like the watch getting sized down. Now Bobby is with you 'all the time'. He is anyway. The comfort of wearing the watch must be incredible. Toxic people are out there. They have to be really miserable inside to project such venom. My sister remains this way - I have no idea if she will ever mellow and just let life happen as it does. But she needs to control and life is not controllable. Life happens. Therapy and doctors have told me more than once to let go of toxic people - I tried so hard for years because I wanted the idyllic sister relationship that you read about in books. Oil and water don't mix. I gave up. I found a new sister in my closest friend, I've found more family here (thank you for having me in this circle of love) and I continue to find more love and support just by letting life happen. We are still experiencing toxic people with our contractor lien going to court now, pushing our own home build disaster lawsuit ahead. I wish we did not have to do what we are going through but our life's savings are gone. We have no choice in the lien but to defend ourselves. Somehow through all this mess I am sleeping much better. I cannot change my sister - I have let her go but I secretly still wish she can heal herself inside and let life touch her. I am more at peace these days than I have been in years. Enough is enough. I don't want to drink to feel nothing anymore. I've been working on this journey of recovery and new lifestyle habits and I'm feeling and seeing results. Had a very good talk to Dave (DH) this morning about sleeping better and not have broken records constantly playing in my head stressing me out. I garden, I communicate with people who are loving, friends - family to me. I listen with both ears to my surroundings. I hear lovelier sounds to day because I'm letting myself hear them. The biggest stretch which is now becoming easier is I'm actually looking at myself in the mirror and seeing a happier Peggy. What happens will happen. Can I change things? If I can I will for the better. If I can't I have to let it all go on it's journey without me. My Mom spent her time with me during her life telling me to stop worrying about things I cannot change and have no control over. Now at 48 I'm finally getting it. To hell with toxic people. They live literally in that plane - I don't care to join them anymore. I've been MIA - yesterday was a pre-trial for the lien action. Clients had to be in the hallway while the lawyers and judge confirmed evidence and asked both lawyers if either party wanted to offer settlement. We're heading to court to defend ourselves. I'm getting used to macaroni these days....with the garden starting to produce some things my diet is expanding. Well that was yesterday, Monday I was in the garden doing some serious weeding and still planting transplants from the winter as I clear more space outside. Today I was going to work outside but the heavens opened within minutes so I changed gears and I'm working on setting up my craft supplies, been killing moving boxes of Peggy's fabric, crafts and the like. Mentally loving the whole room with stuff all over the place. It's all getting sorted into the dresser I have (emptied that of crap from moving). Putting containers inside the drawers to hold stuff, my paints, brushes, lace trimmings, beads, scissors and all that stuff. It feels like Christmas to me in there. Yeah to anyone else it looks like a craft truck just dumped stuff into the room. But the charity box is filling up with items I will never use/haven't used. Stuff that can be used by someone else. Mentally it feels great to finger through all those things and see them get organized again. So excuse me while I organize some fun stuff. I'm with all of you in spirit. On my diet side, still not eating breakfast but mentally making note of it now and every odd day manage to gag something down with my coffee (need to eat breakfast). Continuing to dance within my 5 pound range of my goal weight. Now focusing on my self esteem. Feeling better inside myself I find I can look at myself in the mirror with less criticism. That's another major goal I'm working on. C'mon - let's keep putting one foot in front of the other. Pull each other along. I may not have a zumba class but I did have Donna Summer's greatest hits on this morning and boogied through my craft obstacle course. That counts for something, right? I love ya all! ((((((((((((((((((Group Hug))))))))))))))) Just because you are all so damned cute! Cheers, Peggy...See MoreWhat's for dinner 4/26?
Comments (5)We had tacos one day last week. We love them too Sue! I had mini-sausages (breakfast sausages), stir-fried with peppers, onions and pineapple chunks in a soy, brown sugar, pineapple juice sauce over rice. The rest of the apple pie and leftover chocolate-zucchini cake for dessert....See MoreWhat's for dinner Wednesday?
Comments (15)Gluten free, sugar free, dairy free, garlic free. WOW! That is really tough, lucky you that you could come up with a meal that covers all of those. Enjoy your visit with the family.Tonight was Ladies Night Out at the club so I went to that with a friend and then we stayed for a bite to eat. Just had an appetizer. It was suppose to be Oxtail stuffed ravioli but we all got a butternut squash ravioli by mistake. It was not that great. Nothing awful, but I would not order it again. We had a nice time just the same....See MoreWhat's for dinner Monday?
Comments (10)I had a long day of shopping today with Cheryl and we had too much to eat at the Golden Corral and it was all good. Since I still have a scratchy throat so I am drinking hot Jello. That really helps a sore throat. I think I will not eat any supper but maybe take an apple up with me after I take my Airborne. I hope you are doing better Patti.
