a case of the Monnnndays

September 18th, 2006 at 04:55 pm

I truly appreciate all of your support. It's a wonder, having all of you here to 'talk' and 'listen' to! It's hard to believe that I've been blogging here for almost two years.

I noticed today that a few of the blogs I always liked to catch up on have disappeared - Retire@50, for one. Bummer. I like hearing about how people's lives are going.

Boss told me today that doctor's notes don't matter. Also found out that I can be sick one day in November or December, but any more than that until some point next year and I will get written up. I really, really hope I don't get the flu. I'll be sure to get a flu shot this year.

I unintentionally had a no-spend weekend! Friday I uncorked a bottle of wine and just tried to relax. Saturday I spent all day - 9:00am to nearly 6:00pm - working on the coupon train. There were a ton of expired coupons, so I tossed those and added over 500 of mine. I organized it to keep like coupons together. I was amazed that it took so long to do. Sunday I made black bean soup in the crockpot, delicious parmesan italian bread with the help of the breadmaker, and a peach crisp. Cooking is so enjoyable with a cool breeze floating through the open windows.

I didn't get much job hunting done like I had planned. Tonight the masseuse is coming over (yippee!). I'm waiting for the doctor's phone call and just trying to remember that it's nice to be alive. Smile

    Wierd about Reire@50's blog. I miss her too. I wonder if her blog is retired because it's been inactive for a length of time, or because she requested it? I hope she comes back soon...

    I received an email from retire @50...she said she was fine, just really busy. She also said that she tries to come on and read up on blogs to stay up on how everyone is doing.

    I do miss her blogs too...I really enjoyed hearing about her books and her neices.

    I put a note in her blog and got a very similar email as from Thrifty Ray. My intuition tells me that retire@ 50 will be back soon. I miss her advice - I got a couple of good pieces of advice from her.

    Isn't it amazing how long it takes to sort through a coupon train? Welcome to my life Smile Just kidding, sounds wonderful! Thanks for doing all that! Very greatly appreciated.
