try again
I have set up my puter in such a way I can click on all my fav sites. Why haven't I used bookmarks earlier? My daily reading of all the interesting blogs has given me incentive to get back to mine even if it is only for me.
Lots has happened and is happening in my life and now I realise it has been quite interesting when all the little daily incidents are added together to make the full story. I am kicking myself for this oversight.
It was the thought I had when I woke this morning making me realise I have come through a lot and I should be proud of all my experiences, the boys, dh's amputation, widowhood, weight loss, Mum and Dad [hence forth to be known as m&d] [and others by their initial] the garden, sewing, writing.
I will make this a first stop to make some comment about something.

Going to continue 33 months
Haven't been doing this for a while as family matters got in the way, but that is life. Life is for living of course but [I am only joking here] sometimes it gets in the way.
Anyways I found this site 101 tasks in 1001 days and I have decided to take the challenge. That means in 33 months I should have the goals done. Mind you I will be 33 months older and in a way that would be an interesting journey. The past two months looking after Dad and everything that goes with it has been interesting and thank goodness I did write down some of it other wise I would have forgotten how quickly things have deteriorated in such a short time.
I have been reading other blogs and the daily entries making for an interesting story about ppl over a period of time. In a way I want to add my story to the many that are out there.
Todays list :
clear ds2 room out of clothes and get them into some sort of order
clear clothes off dining table
do some patchwork
visit Dad

Wednesday .. inside because of the weather
WOW what weather we are having at the moment. Yesterday was one for staying inside, warm and dry, but I did venture out to walk to the pool and try to do some swimming. Boy 25 m is a long way when you are not fit, but I managed to do a few lengths. I am going again today. It is becoming my time to chill out and just enjoy myself. This morning I have to wake all the boys at 7 - 7.30 am so I might be able to get to the pool earlier.
For the rest of the day, I cleared the sewing table and ended up hand sewing all the pieces of batting together to make one big piece. Made quite a suitable size too. Am pleased how it turned out. Then I decided to cut out the calico to make more pillows for the family = ended up cutting out five more. Will have to finish them properly and put them away.
If it continues with this bad weather I will spend some time washing all the sheets that I got from Dad which I want to use as under sheets for the beds. I am realising more and more things will not always be easy for me and it is time to start my "old-age" glory box.
And there is a new gym opening up in the next street over next month. might go and check it out
Feel sore in the arms. With the new goggles I now can see to do freestyle and I feel the weakness in my arms. well I will keep going and soon I will be able to be more 'freer' in the style
So that is goal number one for the day done, now off to see Dad and then shopping later in the day as I have run out of lunch food for the tribe.

Saturday 0733
Tried my goggles yesterday swimming and what a difference!!! Why have I waited so long == i never knew that I could get them and that they were so affordable. No more sore eyes and vision is really clear
It is 7.33 am and I have to wait until 9 am when the pool will be open again, in the mean time I will have to do other things. It is cold this morning - Skids [the cat] is under the quilt I have over my knees!!
I was looking at my subtitle and realise I need to make more of a commitment to writing about this lifestyle and to do more about it.
At the moment I want to get the place sorted out so I can live in it more comfortable.
I have all the clothes to put away = that will be easy as both boys are working today.
I want to start leveling the lawn at Dad's so we can get the grass seed down, so in summer there will be a proper lawn to walk on.

Middle of the Week
OK it is the middle of the week and for the first time my leg is not hurting when I walk on it. Now that the boys are up and have breakfast I am packing to go for a swim, then ring the optician to see if my goggles came in, [I wear glasses].
Do some housework, more cutting of fabric, and then the paper work.
