There is something about this wonderful painting that calms me and makes me smile at the same time. I just love it!

We leave after lunch for our doctor appointment and then will go to Walmart to get what we need to be as comfortable as possible for when we are snowed in for several days, beginning around noon tomorrow and continuing through afternoon on Friday, according to the latest forecast. UGH. I will be very happy if we are just stuck up here for a while. We had a bunch of trees cut down on both sides of our driveway, hoping to NOT have trees and big limbs coming down from both sides into the driveway. One famous ice storm it took us three days of chain sawing and dragging to clean the driveway enough to drive down to the road. Here’s hoping for just a bit of inconvenience this time.

At my husband’s request, I’m starting a recipe in the slow cooker before we leave for the doctor. It’s called, “Creamy Slow Cooker Chicken with Bacon and Cheese” by Kasey Trenum of KaseyTrenum.com. My husband absolutely loves this. I increase the recipe each time. :0)

I think I have admitted that I’m a slob. Many times, though I try to be careful, I inadvertently spill something on the plain tee I’m wearing when I’m eating. Many times I am unable to remove the stain.

So my solution is to paint the tee to cover the stain so I can continue enjoying the tee. About half of my plain tees are now ‘painted’ with one design or another. I’m wearing one now that has a cotton-ball flower type design all over the front.

Yesterday I painted some white birds on my long-sleeved blue tee. Sigh.

May you enjoy a happy day filled with smiles and laughter.

I’m sending hope and good wishes to Florida, hoping that Milton isn’t as bad as forecast. I’m hoping that the responders on the ground can act quickly to help people affected. The two people I know are not in the mandatory evacuation areas, so I’m hoping they’ll be safe.

We have lots of errands this morning, but should be home by lunch time.

The APRN who saw my husband and me at the doc’s office yesterday was pleased with my weight loss efforts. She wants me to drink a protein shake daily, start a new medication and return in three months. Hopefully this combo of losing more weight, the shakes, and the med will result in good improvement in January.

At lunch we discovered our TV channels weren’t coming up. The problem turned out to be a system-wide problem that the TV provider was having, rather than us, particularly. He didn’t know when it would be fixed, so we enjoyed a movie from our collection last night.

Stay safe and well.

My pick for American Idol won last night. (For those of you who don’t watch, it’s Iam Tongi, in the middle.) I saw a video yesterday of Jelly Roll – a new-to-me really powerful singer who has been winning awards lately talking to Joe Rogan on Joe’s podcast about Iam, showing him the original audition. Both men cried. Jelly Roll (“Save Me”) said he had publicly announced that he was going to find whoever was handling contracts with Iam because he wanted ‘in’ on them. Jelly Roll performed on the finale last night, singing a duet with my other favorite contestant, Oliver Steele, so I hope THEY hooked up, as well.

Speaking of Iam’s original audition, he sang “Monsters” by James Blunt. On the finale, James Blunt and Iam sang the song together, barely making it through in one piece. The audience felt the same way.

This afternoon we’ll drive our trash down to the bottom of the driveway and get our mail on the way to our routine doctor appointment. Hopefully, there isn’t VERY much about us that is concerning and we can plod off blissfully into the sunset until the next appointment. :0)

My husband mowed the grass yesterday. Now it’s my turn to do my thing and weed whack where he can’t get the riding mower. With all the rain we’ve been getting, there’s a lot for me to do. We’re due for more rain on Wednesday, so I have today and tomorrow to try to get the trimming under control.

I hope that your Monday is a good one.
