Good morning, everybody!
I went to Urgent Care to get my ringing ear checked out and they think that it is sinus related. So, I'm doing Flonase and taking Prednisone for a couple of days to try and clear it up.
It seems that there are a bunch of reasons why I don't want to be on Prednisone any longer than I have to be, so hopefully this clears up quickly.
Since the buildup is coming from inside my head and not from my ear canal, the doctor said I'm fine to keep swimming as long as the pressure doesn't make me uncomfortable. I think that I will take Wednesday off, most likely.
Yesterday morning, we reviewed the houses that Marilyn looked at in Florida. We liked one and are getting more information about it. We decided to Snowbird instead of move, though, so we are looking at smaller homes than we originally thought. That way we will still have our Chicago home if a storm floods it. Anyway, we still need more information.
QOTD: Does checking which accountants handled the voting count?
Breakfast: bagel
Lunch: catered
Dinner: chili
Have a great day, all!

Good mornin y'all. Glad to hear your mom is home!
It was a long weekend for me as well. Capped off by a weird episode of throwing up after drinking some water. I got a low blood sugar then threw up what I had done to get it back up. It passed as mysteriously as it came on. So weird and uncomfortable.
Looks to be a somewhat easy going week ahead. No appointments that I can think of. Next one will be a busy one so I'll take a slow week anytime. My bday is next week too, hard to believe I'll be 44.
I am so very very tired this morning but I've got all the critters fed and given fresh water. I'm hoping to lay down a bit before I take a shower. We do have to get the kids after school. I think my mom is wanting something from Sam's.
QOTD: no, Grammys are probably the most pretentious thing to me as music is so subjective. I have never cared much for Beyoncé. I think she's a bit snooty. Talented as all get out but pretentious. I'm with you on the cowboy Carter stuff. I hated how she redid blackbird...one of my favorite Beatles songs. Not my cup of tea,
B: burrito and coffee
L: likely soup
D: ????
What I made this weekend and Ms.Tange too.
There was a time when I watched all the award shows, watched all the current movies, and knew the latest songs and performers. I have completely lost interest in those things now.
Cinnamon rolls sounds so good. Especially fresh from the oven. Irvin is lucky to have you to bake for him.

Good morning menu peeps. What a weekend. We got a lot done and my mom did come home finally on Friday. While I haven't spoken to her yet just because I've been busy, we have texted a few times. She said she feels pretty good and will just have to monitor her weight and blood pressure daily to make sure she isn't retaining any water, but the doctor was pretty positive that because she is so active and otherwise healthy, she should be fine.
We finally got the billy goat, and the girls were not sure what to make of him. Bean was being a butthead and being mean to him, while Thistle was like hey handsome and loving on him. He's a cute little guy. The tack sale on Sunday went pretty well. I sold some stuff nothing big, but still some stuff and made some cash.
QOTD: Do you watch things like the Grammys? I never do just not interested in stuff like that. But I did laugh this morning when I heard that Beyonce won album of the year. Just because she was born and raised in Texas and named her album Country Carter DOES NOT make her a country singer. She butchered in my opinion Dolly's Jolene and the majority of the songs on her album are more hip hop/country than true country music. But it is what it is I guess.
B: coffee and a cinnamon roll (Irvin wanted some so I made them this morning)
L: 2 slices left over pizza
D: chicken burgers with cheese and bacon
30 minutes on the treadmill
Have a great day everyone!!!
Good Morning! Friyay and I'm trying to get those vibes. I am ready for the weekend. Sorry about your family, I hope everyone really does what's best for your mom and stops what sounds like childish behavior. I may meet up with a friend for breakfast tomorrow but other than that not too much going on for the weekend.
QOTD: I don't love it but when I have done it hasn't been too bad.
TSS: 10 years 5 months
B: SF latte, 3 turkey sausage links, and an orange
L: Turkey and cheese sticks, oikos yogurt and some fruit
S: A piece of fruit and yogurt
D: TBD
ES: Protein ice cream and carbmaster toast
E: Rest day today
V/W: On track

Have a great day!
Hi gang. Nothing really exciting going on here. Just a nice routine. And it's warmed up a little.
I hope your mom gets better soon LG. Dealing with family can make a bad situation worse.
QOTD: I don't mind the actual flying at all. But the leg room for me is just awful. I really just don't care for all the getting to and from the airport stuff.
Sorry, no pictures. I'm boring.
