A mishmash

Been a few days since I posted, but a number of things have kept me busy this last week. One thing is the fact I have to accept being retired. I'd still like to find a job, but with my disability, it can be hard.

I'm currently working on losing more weight. Last week I lost 6.9 lbs. That's pretty good for me. I usually only lose a pound or two a week. I'm better able to focus on the types of food I need to eat in addition to quantities. I rewarded myself by ordering a small slow cooker. A lot of the recipes I have are for small cookers. I have a large one now and will use that to make big batches to freeze. Even the small one will enable me to save some healthy food for a later time. I ordered the Cuisinart PSC-350 3-1/2-Quart Programmable Slow Cooker. It isn't really programmable as the only thing it will do is change from low to warm after a preset time. It has a lot of good reviews though and I hope to use it a lot.

I've done some more cleaning up the clutter in the house, removing some things and making bigger paths. I can't look at the whole house, I just have to focus or a small area at a time. This afternoon I hope to spend some time outside in the yard and maybe do some clutter removal and organizing in the garage. I hope to have it cleaned out enough by fall that I can get my truck in it! I hate scraping the windows in the winter.
