Busy, Busy Day...

At least for me. Lately, I’ve been so tired . No particular reason, just this body. Today however, there were a few things that just called out to be done. I know that for most of you, this list would be just a light afternoon . For me, it’s almost overwhelming.

This morning, MDH (My Dear Husband) said “What are you going to do with these tomatoes?” They are “His”, why doesn’t he figure out what to do with them. So, He’s eating the cherry tomatoes and the larger ones, apparently, are my responsibility. I decided to make soup out of them. He doesn’t like tomato soup. Why do we have to grow them? So, I got the skins off before lunch and cut them up, too.

Then lunch and I started to boil the tomatoes and cut up the other veggies that I was going to put in the soup. By 1:30 I had the soup almost done. Then it was time for the granddaughters to arrive. I had promised my daughter that I would baby sit this afternoon. Always love to do that, just should have taken more time to rest before they arrived. As usual, they were in fine form! I had saved most of the fall decorations just for them to put out. They were both very happy to have a project. I just let them “have at it.” They did a pretty good job. The younger one may be little, but her determination is mighty. She knew where she wanted her flowers and there was no changing her mind!! Almost 3 years old and 5 years old are such delightful ages! Their mom came back and off they went. Time for my first nap.

Then I had put the last of the cookies out for my husband, so more had to be made. I make sugar free cookies, sweetened with stevia. I try to put all sorts of healthy ingredients in them, yet give him something sweet to eat. He hasn’t complained so I guess they are OK.

Time for another nap after they were baked. Then dinner and another nap. That’s what this body has been doing lately, zonk!, as soon as I sit down. Well, I’ve napped another time since then and talked on the phone and decided that I would post something, just so I could stay awake! Somewhere in there I cleaned the kitchen and washed the cookie sheets.

Tomorrow is another day and more projects to be done. That is a good thing!
