Oh boy, I was sorry to hear of the week you had, but grateful you’re back feeling better. I have lots of joint issues and I get you. I’m a glass half full person though. I had a great week. I had gotten an outdoor bench and it’s been sitting in a huge box in the yard for a month. My husband was off playing at his favorite thing, surfing. I decided I was going to open that box and put together the bench on my own. And I did it! I think hubby felt so left out that I had completed it on my own, that he decided he needed to take on the other boxes sitting for us. A butcher block kitchen cart! I’m so giddy now that these two things waiting to be done are completed. Hooray!

Thanks so much Andrea, me too ❤️ That honestly sounds amazing and I can definitely relate haha sometimes those projects just take forever to get started and are so satisfying to finish. You may have inspired me to do a few things around here. Enjoy that kitchen cart, I love getting new storage or anything new kitchen related!

I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better. When health issues flare up and you feel terrible, it really does make you appreciate your healthy days. I have so many medical issues myself so I completely understand. One thing that has changed my life recently and has brought me joy is that we rescued a dog last Thursday. Although we were completely unprepared, he is such a sweetheart. Watching him settle in over the weekend and sleep peacefully filled my heart. I'm hoping that we can keep him but I am just happy to foster him and keep him out of the shelter. Have a great week!

So glad to hear you are on the sunny side now. I too love your page and not just for the amazing recipes (and Reggie haha) but you are real and honest, and your kindness shows in all aspects of your account. Having health issues is tough to deal with. My husband has Parkinson’s and cancer and the struggles are real.

We are all human, and anytime you post something, it blows my mind after all my years of cooking.

I’m also from BC and currently in Cancun with all of my kids and six grandkids, so life at the moment is good 😊

In so sorry Kelly that must be tough ❤️❤️❤️ love that you’re all together somewhere nice and toasty warm!

Thank you for sharing. All of us struggle and all of us feel like we are the only one struggling at times, but of course that's not the truth. Life is hard.

What makes me happy, the snow is melting so fast, the sun is shining, the temperature has warmed up a lot, and we're having friends over for supper tonight.

Rachel Halldorson's avatar

Amazing ! What did you make?

unknown's avatar

Marry me chicken, mashed potatoes, and cesear salad. Nanaimo squares for dessert.

So glad to hear you’re on the other side! Sounds really rough.

What’s making me happy: it’s currently 14 degrees and feeling the sun on my face is making me feel alive again.

Rachel Halldorson's avatar

❤️ crazy how much a bit of sun on the face can do for the soul right?
