Let's see... not much in the way of any accomplishments so far. Cooked a spiral cut ham to perfection... for two people. Only ate about two or three slices off it. Cooked Au Gratin potatoes and sauteed some asparagus. All in all it was a delicious dinner for me and Katie.
Saving the ham bone for split pea soup, made sure to pick up a package of split peas just for that. putting the bone in a big stew pot tomorrow and simmer it away before going to work.
Thursday morning Katie, her mom and I will go take a walk in the canyon. Hoping it's not too cold, there was frost and ice there yesterday morning. I haven't had a hike in the canyon in over a year I think.
Okay so things I would like to accomplish this year..
Finish my two books and get them out to the public somehow.
What I'd really like is for my son to get a job or go back to school so I don't have to worry about him as much.
Katie get a job while she's going to school so I don't have to worry about money with us. As well as getting her a new computer so she can do her school work at home.
Amber and Dan get a 'little' ahead more so I don't worry about them either.
See it all boils down to other people's happiness and success for me.
I have a roof over my head, two jobs that pay most of the bills, food in the cupboards and fridge, a roommate that is just as crazy as I am... connection to teh internet and all my friends and family around the world.
That's pretty much all I need.
Extras... yeah maybe getting my license back and a car that works would be nice. Hoping tax refund will help with that.
Maybe I can try and be a little neater, clean up after myself a bit...
Get new glasses and maybe the rest of my dental work done...
See.. all those little extras, but other than that I have my health and things are running smoothly in that department.
Well almost, I got a cold for Christmas, luckily it's a mild one so just have a nagging cough now and am out of cough medicine and lozenges. Was told that vicodin is a good cough suppressant.
Right.
It knocks you out so you can sleep through the night! Doesn't get rid of the cough! But at least I have some of that if I need it in the middle of the night.
so, here's hoping for a bit more worry free year, the world not ending (in any form, political or geographical).
Good night, think I'll go take some medicine and get some rest.
Oh and it's been COLD here at night, dipping down into the low 40's and even high 30's in some areas. Don't want to hear from any East Coasters pshsawing that.. this is San Diego! We're not used to cold like that!
"When I woke up this morning my girlfriend asked me, 'Did you sleep good?' I said 'No, I made a few mistakes.'
