It’s Christmas Eve!

/ Paul / Leave a comment

Happy Christmas Eve! Today I went to the grocery store to get a few things. I figured they’d be closed tomorrow. I also did several things around the house that needed to get done. I put things off until I have some time by myself to do them. That’s what I did.

Today the Christmas Monkey got into the Hersey’s Kisses. He wanted to eat them all!

In the evening I continued to watch Christmas movies. I also got into a marathon of Forensic Files on the HLN channel. I woke up on the couch at 2:30 AM! Then I went to bed.

I was very lazy today. I only walked a total of 1.63 miles. No exercise app today.

He Went To New Orleans

Today my husband left to go to New Orleans. He is sending the week with his family to celebrate Christmas. He says I can go each year but I decide not to. I spent the time by myself doing things I like to do while he’s gone. It is good to have some time away from time to time.

I spent the day cleaning up and watching Christmas movies. This evening I watched Holiday Inn. It’s one of my favorites. It seems that most of my favorite Christmas movies were made in the 1940s. They have just the right feel to enjoy the holiday.

Using the exercise app I did a workout of 1.08 miles. I didn’t walk on the treadmill though. I was doing things around the house and moving fast enough to get my heart rate up. I didn’t close the exercise ring but I did close the others. I think this week is going to be slow in the exercise area but I’ll get back to it next week in the new year.

Trip To Fredericksburg

This morning I drove to Fredericksburg Virginia to spend the day with my artist friend Bob. I haven’t seen him in awhile. We used to get together years ago and do art and have photo shoots. While in Fredericksburg, Bob showed me several art galleries and art shops in the old downtown area. I bought a few small pieces of art.

Bob also showed me where he has his work on display and for sale. Here he is in front of a piece of his work.

I’ll be visiting him again in the new year to actually create some artwork. It was fun spending the day with him talking and catching up.

I only walked a total of 2.12 miles today. I didn’t do the treadmill or close all three rings on the Apple Watch.

Blood Work

I had to renew some prescriptions. When I called them in, they said my doctor had to approve of them. I heard from her saying it was time for blood work. It seems like I am getting blood drawn every six months now. I guess that’s what happens when you get old and you take prescriptions on a regular basis. So I went to have my blood taken this morning. This afternoon all the results came back and luckily everything was in the normal range. Nothing to worry about. That’s good. But I have to look forward to going through this all again in six months.

I walked on the treadmill again today. I walked 2.12 miles and closed all three rings on the Apple Watch.
