Wednesday Weigh-In

Or Thur, no it's Friday isn't it. I've felt so rotten the past three days with terrible headaches, sour stomach, etc that all I've wanted to is lie down. But haven't been able to do much of that with all I've had to do this week.

I think I've got most of my assignments and commitments and other things done on my list: arranging for special music for sacrament meetings through
Dec in my ward plus Assisted Living Center; taking all my donations to Humanitarian Effort to D.I.; wrapping and mailing Christmas boxes (no opening of these early) and Mary's birthday box; getting car serviced and tires rotated; having hair trimmed; winterizing yard with Ryan's help; distributing apples to friends and neighbors; obtaining, wrapping and delivering wedding and baby gifts; meeting with Hull's who are going to downsize my blue spruce tree that's getting too tall; getting my visiting teaching done today and taking some homemade bread, jam, cake and kraut to John and Virginia as they both love it although she's getting worse everyday with Alzheimers; making lots of applesauce for Holly instead of apple pie; and starting to organize and pack boxes to take with me.

The ward members are coming tomorrow to help rake all my leaves and Holly is coming to help lift the heavy boxes into the car as she does every year. Then I can get the rest packed before I leave on Mon.

My friend from Green Valley who I was going to caravan back to GV with (she was in Springville helping with new grandson, had to return home last Sunday due to husband being hospitalized. So I'll be flying solo. I plan to drive to So. Jordan Mon afternoon to attend Lance's HS musical "Beauty and the Beast" and spend the night. Then I'll have 2 hours less driving on Tues, will stop in Flagstaff for night and then I can get into G.V. a little earlier than usual. Keeping my eye on the weather and hope the storm that's coming in tomorrow lasts only thru Sun and doesn't leave snow on roads.

It seems like I'm giving Holly her incentive as I'm down to 89 this week, but I must tell all of you how proud of her I was Sunday night when she left her game prize of a 2 lb container of Almond Toffee with me to eat on my trip, ha! rather than take it home and consume it and break her goal. Good Going HollySue!!!!
