Today was a happy day. Today was a lucky day for me, it was Friday the 13th. Not that I did anything today. My friend, Holly, was supposed to come over today but she wasn't feeling well so I told her if she didn't want to come over, don't worry about it so she didn't. But then my mom called me and we talked for a while. Then she said they were dropping by to bring us dinner, a beef stew she made. She had wanted to make it for us for when we were returning from vacation but she hadn't gotten to it then and we came back a day early. So she had it now.
So my parents come over. For this, I get up, dress in night pants and a long sleeve shirt with a bra. They come in but they don't want to sit down, so we stand talking for 15 minutes. Mom said they were going to a brewery, a micro brewery, later that she called after reading an article about them using barley, soaking it to get the sugars out to make the beer and then throw out the barley after they drain it. So mom called them and found out they just give away the barely when they are done with it. In fact, this micro brewery has a person who uses some of it to make dog biscuits and sells them there. So they would be happy to give mom some, she just needed to bring some containers down today as they were finishing a batch today. She had called last week. Anyway, she and my dad were going down this afternoon.
So I thanked them for the beef stew and told them we would see them later and they left. I went back upstairs and got back to my marathon Medium shows on Netflix.
I know all this sedentary lifestyle has to stop, nothing is getting done in the house, nothing is getting down in the yards and my body is just getting fatter and staying out of shape. I guess the inevitable will happen on the 16th, when I meet with the physician's assistant and find out what life style changes I need to make to fight the weight and osteopenia. So don't count me out on the fight for a healthier and happier life, I'm just taking a break.
