For the first time since I went to work at the Stampede, I took some time off during the winter break. It has been a wild ride. I have completely revamped the craft room with the Steampunk decor. I have recovered the couches and redecorated the living room in a new color scheme. I have switched the bedding in the bedroom and "shopped" my storage boxes for different decor. I even moved the wine rack and blue Pyrex into the dining room, freeing up some room in the kitchen. It has been crazy but fun.
Between all that, I have managed to bake...
Watch some of my favorite movies...
Visited an animal shelter to take a kitten into the cat room and love on it (therapy for me and the kitty)...
Keep the grandkids for the weekend and go to the movies...
Try different foods and (yuck) tea...
Went to my grandson Colby's ball games and to the champion ship game where they took 1st in season and 2nd in the tournaments.
Put furniture together all by myself...a FIRST!
Kept track of my blood pressure, which I might add, is really good for 63 years old. I don't have problems and not on meds, just trying to do some destressing techniques to keep it this way.
Did some crafting and enjoying my new steampunk room.
Went to the work end of year party and also went out many times with various friends to visit, go out to eat and take in a movie or even shopping.
Decorated for every holiday.
Even realized I LOVE to paint. This was a pale gray. Change it to gunmetal color.
I shopped, attended church, lead childrens church every Sunday but one this year. Read 14 books so far this year. All of them at least 300 pages. It has been an amazing year. That brings us up to date through Thursday. I will post again on Monday to do a weekend wrap up before I have to go back to work next week. It has been one heck of a wild ride.
