wholefoodnut's Journal, 20 December 2014

It has been a crazy week, lots going on, don't feel like cooking (rare for me). Grandkids today and ice skating with them tomorrow. Have to get moving soon, I still have the back of my car full of weights sets for the boys and not enough groceries for the bottomless kids.

11,320 steps yesterday. Haven't been good about tracking anything.

Roof repair is done including updating the 2 chimneys and all the vents, everything should be solid and updated to meet current building codes instead of 1958. Next project is to remove the raccoon damaged insulation, sanitize the attic and put in new. Also replacing the front door. I'm not doing those myself. It's going to mean pulling $$$ out of savings as the insulation part will be expensive but will be worth it.

Wow Jeri - I think Santa needs to bring you a contractor for Christmas. Maybe an unlimited gift card to Lowes. I hear ya though - building repairs, neverending, yes?

Once I get it done I should be back in good shape. Coons though last night tore out a piece my soffit to get back in. I hate raccoons!!! will call animal control on Monday to see if they can help get rid of "them there critters". Went ice skating with the triplets today, had a great time. Hot chocolate with marshmallows back at gramma's real whole milk and Hershey's syrup. Almost couldn't finish a cup, it was so sweet. Nacho grande for dinner, a one meal that I do use some processed cheese and chips. It's a kid favorite, the boys beg me for it. This old lady hurts tonight though, fell at the ink, landed smack on my tailbone!! ouch!! also put a hand down to stop the fall, jammed the arm. It'll slow me down for a couple days, certainly not climbing a ladder to nail the soffit back in tonight!!!

Hope you are feeling better after your fall at the skating rink. Did the raccoon leave?

Doing better, still a bit stiff and my jammed wrist is a bit weak and sore. Will wear my wrist brace to work, have worn it most of the time since I came home. Not sure on the coon. I poured ammonia around and on the chimney going up to the place they damaged again. Will dump more out there today after work. Haven't heard them, it's right outside my bedroom window so the dogs would have woken me up. I read that they don't like ammonia.
