It may be Jan when I can get totally back on track. I am hitting my step goal more often. Exercise still mostly geared to improving my neck issues. Food not bad. Went to my favorite Mexican grocer on Friday and stocked up on dried chilis etc. Some meat and cheese from their butcher counter and some fresh veggies. Mexican for dinner probably from Diana Kennedy's book Cuisines of Mexico.

I'm good but family issues continue with the kid's dad and then FIL of my oldest was found dead (natural causes). His home is nearby and so my daughter and SIL in and out; me helping go through boxes and boxes of paper. Makes one think to make certain you don't leave your kids that much stuff to go through. The house is chok full of antiques of all types as are the 2 large storage sheds in the back. His wife died a while back.

Well it's a stay home and clean the house Sunday; really cold and expecting snow tonight.

02 December 2022

I have been bad about eating and exercise this week due to family issues A start over tomorrow. Ex (kid's dad) is now at a rehab center. Not sure what is happening going forward he wants to go home. At least the kids are ood with that.

I am staying home this weekend. The weather is going from 60+ high today to about 30 tomorrow with lows in the 20's tonight. Yikes not nice to this old body! Decided I needed to catch up at home.

Popped pinto beans and seasoning in my instant pot @ lunch break to make chili. Have chili cooking in my dutch oven on the stove r, it smells so good. I ran to the store and bought more onions to make onion soup tomorrow (a go to for me in cold weather). Will make bread tomorrow. I would love to do some curry this weekend. That will give me food for the week and can take some containers to the cabin next weekend.

My world today. Life is amazing!!1

I'm tired have to stay up until Amazon get here dang 10 pm is way too late-- Things out for delivery by 10 pm. Supposed to be fewer boxes and delivered the same day and less boxes.. UGG bedtime is 8:30 hope the last one of several that were supposed to be fewer boxes and same day delivery. I already have 4 boxes over 2 days.

Youngest called and talked for an hour re: her dad--messed up exercise plans. OK so my daughters have a hate-;love relationship with him --mostly hate. They feel responsible cause he is their dad. Expect that my oldest will call soon--talked to her husband with an update. They are struggling. He is not really capable mentally of taking care of himself. He is now in a re-hab facility as of today.

Food OK- but missed lunch not enough veggies. Working on that. Still drinking beer need to quit that. It's hard when I am between 2 locations to eat properly without everything spoiling. Trying to figure out some sort of plan to do this. Still a work in progress.

Calories OK. Should not be drinking beer but I am. This week it's only Tuesday but insane. Both good and not so. Exercise not happening due to too many hours
on the phone with family. My posts are about life as well as weight and exercise. My thoughts and research indicate that everything in your life contribute to your weight, health and fitness. I you object please just keep scrolling.

My estimate came in today for the foundation-was a bit more than my guess, but my guess had no information to support it and much more involved than I knew. The "crawl" space will have insulated walls and a gravel floor, making it a "clean" space. Since the downhill side will be
about 6 feet tall in the back so it will be useful storage. May even be able to create a root cellar as the walls will be insulated. A root cellar would be amazing as a storage for canned goods and some types of fruits and veggies. I used to have on many years ago. So a step closer on my house!!!

The well estimate should be by the end of the week. Then the work starts getting info to the bank and then the waiting game.

Daughters are all stressed -- I have 3. my ex, their dad fell down my middle daughter's stairs on Thursday night broke like 7 ribs etc. etc. Lots of health and mental issues with him including abusive ones toward myself and 2 daughters.

Spending much of the last several days dealing with my daughter's issues with him. Mentally exhausting and why I have been on the phone. they have so many mixed feelings about him-which is totally understandable. His dementia is getting much worse. If he goes back to his home alone he may not live much longer :They are dealing with a lot. So they call mama.
