Johanne's Journal, 09 January 2012

Today is a good day. I almost finished my Living room yesterday and my son brought over my Christmas TV (42" flat screen that the boys gave me for Christmas) and even brought me a nice little stand for it. I figure I can finish up the living room today and that will be the first completed room in the house. Huzzah!

My beautiful box of Curried Red Lentil Soup got here today . . . 12 quarts! Boy is that heavy. Guess what I'm having for lunch? LOL! Aaaaand, I'm sitting here on pins and needles in hopes that my Fitbit arrives. I'm not really expecting it so soon, but I WILL be disappointed if it doesn't get here. Now how's that for childishness? Hehe.

My cold is finally under control. I can handle the congestion with my purse atomizer instead of the nebulizer, which means I'm not walking around the house all light-headed and sick feeling. Yay for Zinc!!!

I'm planning on going out tonight to howl at the moon with my FS buddies. I love a full moon. I think that's why I'm feeling so invigorated today. Well, that's all the news that's fit to print from my corner of the world. I think I'll go get some of that very yummy soup. I LOVE Amazon!!!

EDIT: My Fitbit DID come . . . happy dance, happy dance, happy dance. I went out with my friend and got new batteries for my scale (it died Friday) so I can weigh in on Thursday. I have a tummy full of warm soup and brown rice. I can breathe with minimal effort. I'm about to go out and join my wonderful friends in a little moon commune. All's right with my world!

Nice to know a fellow howler!! So glad you got the cold under control - it is a nasty one. I think stamping your feet if the Fitbit doesn't arrive can be classed as exercise :) I hope you enjoyed your soup :)

Stef, it did arrive today. I'm shooting you my email so you can invite me to your group. I was so exited when it was in the mail box! (The dogs weren't out.) Between yesterday with the TV and today with the Fitbit, I got a lovely, extended Christmas! I immediately got on to download the software when my neighbor called to ask me to go to Lexington with her. I just now got it and my dashboard all set up and the little pet is charging. (It's SO tiny!!! LOL!) It's only 1 1/2 hours before we howl. I'll make sure I'm bundled. Hugs back!!!

Tri, I LOVED my soup! It's SO good. And, my Fitbit DID arrive. I couldn't believe it came so fast. I'm happy about my cold too. They used to last 4-6 weeks and often turned into pneumonia. I'm so much better now!!! Finding out what actually ails you is not only a revelation but, in my case, a cure. Have a happy evening. I plan to. LOL!

Yvonne, I didn't really have the money to buy it, and by the end of the month I'll probably be moaning about too much beans and rice, but I'm not sorry I did it. My kids are wonderful and share their success with me, probably more than they should. I'm a little spoiled. I thank god for them everyday. Are you howling with us? Hugs back!!!

M2B, if you could see the amount of stuff that came out of that room, you'd be impressed. I also love full moons and thunderstorms. however, when you live in the prairie, they can be pretty darned scary too. They never frightened me in VA, but out here the whole sky is open. I've never seen anything like it. Boy won't all our neighbors be wondering what we're doing out there howling like banshees. I hope you'll all be able to feel the hugs I will be thinking!

Bren, the soup is awesome, and you're right, I DID get my Fitbit. I'm so excited. It's charging as I write. My new TV is also awesome. I feel so rich!!! I love the fact that I can subscribe to food on Amazon for 1/2 the price I have to pay for it in the stores and it's shipped free and comes right to my door. (My, the box of soup was heavy!) Anyway, I'm a happy, almost well lady and I can't wait to start using my new toy. Hear you in a little while. Love you lots!
