The easiest way to avoid regrets is to ask yourself this question, "If not now, when?" It's a powerful way to put life and our decisions about how we spend our time into perspective"
It is such a beautiful day. I have the windows open, airing out the house.
After two weeks of near or below freezing temperatures, the oak trees finally gave up, and the leaves they were still overly endowed with fell to the ground at once. They have been so late, as well as pesky this year, dropping leaves over and over and over. My husband and all the neighbors took advantage of the warm temps yesterday afternoon to run their mulching mowers over the yards, grinding the leaves to mulch. The neighborhood looks so nice now, and leaves don't blow into the house every time the door opens.
My husband had to fast yesterday for his scan, so we stopped next door to the cardiology building and had breakfast after his scans were finished. I had an omelet and French toast since they had sugar-free syrup on the table. It was higher in calories than usual, at almost 600, but I only had that and dinner, so it all washed out. They also didn't put sugar into their French toast. I felt like I was indulging, but didn't go over calories or carbs.
A plumber did not connect a faucet correctly in one of the rental houses. It came loose from the pipe while they were away, flooding the floors that are not even a year old. Plumber refused to do anything about it. Our insurance adjuster inspected it and said that they would pay to have the flooring in the whole house replaced, as well as mold remediation, and then they would go after the plumber. First time EVER it has been that easy, but we don't have the money in hand yet. Hopefully, it will arrive on time as soon as the new is installed.
I have my annual wellness check tomorrow for insurance. I went into my portal to do the pre-check-in because they have a stack of papers to go through there. Just checking over all the papers online took almost 30 minutes. They just have way too many questions these days that they never look at anyway. My gratitude is that it is done. Planning to go shopping with my daughter after it is over. Lately, I haven't gotten to shop anywhere but Home Depot and Lowe's. It will be fun to spend another day together.

I can'wait to air out the house!
Of course your buddy trees come earlier for you... it's nice to hear about yours!
So grateful John did a fast turnaround. They said they thought he would be admitted at first but fluids were vital for him. And meds for hives etc. fluids fixed dizziness too. Well he had meds for that also. I guess everything just worked together thank goodness.
Got my bills paid yay
It’s a nice day outside. I keep thinking we will have more winter.
All you ladies. I always know I can depend on you

John did a fast turnaround. Do you have a clue what caused this?
When my children were in school, they got out the third week of March every year for spring break. Every single year, except my daughter's senior year, it snowed. We might not have had much cold weather all year, but it would snow in the third week of March. Always made them so mad since they were already out of school and couldn't get a snow day. I remember one year we had a particularly mild winter, and it snowed at Easter, which was in April that year. So, yeah, we'll probably have more winter, but that won't keep me from enjoying the nice weather we have now.
1. I took the day off work to take Ken to a follow up dr appointment but he woke up coughing and said he wanted to stay in bed! I changed his appointment and decided to stay home anyway! I need to finish up my taxes so I can do that!
2. Feeling a little better. I am still experiencing some pain and stiffness in my hip/leg but I am working on stretching it out and getting up and moving more frequently during the hour to help keep me from getting stiff when I am at work.
3. The friendships we have on this board! Love you ladies!
4. Having the day off with pay! Yes!
5. This day and all it has to offer me. God is good.

both you and Ken will be fit as a fiddle soon. I always loved days off work. Now that I am retired, I would enjoy a day at work sometimes.
Hope you and Ken are BOTH feeling better
