What Did You Do For You Today???

[Reverie]

I've been playing more of my Cooking Mama 2 game on DS. :D So much fun. I've gotten more recipes to play and that is keeping me busy.
Yesterday, I got really sick however and I'm not sure if it was seizure related exactly. But, I puked for a long time...anyway, I slept as much as I needed to today. <3

I'm planning on maybe drawing some more later on, if I can. :3

I got up early, went into the city (45 min drive), enjoyed a Memorial Day ceremony, and quietly thanked all the vets that made my freedom possible by all of their (and their families) sacrifices.

I played bob seger and gordon lightfoot on my acoustic guitar today. I picked up a guitar around 8 years ago. It gives me great joy, peace and happiness. Especially when my fuses are being blown lol.

Bob Seger is one of my all time favorite musicians!!:)

This evening for the first time, in so many years, yea that long ago. We had tea outside, :tup:.

It was wonderful. It is something I have wanted to do for a very long time.

Hubby's idea of fish and chips for a change, sat out int eh evening sun watching the birds feeding while we ate.

I loved every minute of it, I could have sat there for ever.

As KP said in a Chit Chit thread :-

Today was wonderful:
I spent alot of time shopping and biking with my boys. We also took a long walk in the woods and sat and talked and watched the dogs play! It was awesome!!:)
Then later I was taking clothes in from the balcony and a neighbor friend saw me and invited me over for the evening. We just sat in the back yard and talked and laughed.
This day was so good for me. I did everything right for myself. It's the best day I have had in months!!:):p:tup:

Today, my father (who has 'end stage' COPD) was lucid enough to have a serious conversation about his about his living will, had a conversation with me about his 'end of life' care. It lifted a HUGE burden off my shoulders, because i'm the only one that is realistic enough to make family decisions. It's hard when the rest of my family is in denile, and i'm the only one that look at things objectively and keep my fathers wishes in play.

I know it;s not really a " what did I do for ME today"...... but in a way..... it is...:confused:

Today I went out and bought a barbecue. :tup:

I have been hunting for a decent'ish quality and good priced one for ages, well for a few years now. :rolleyes: Now I have one, built and ready to go. Hubby wanted one large enough to cook for 4 to 6 people, all at once, so thats what I found.



So now I have blue wooden patio table and chairs for 2. (We have a few fold up chairs for others) A big parasol, we were given a while ago, and now the BBQ. Just need to finish making the cushion covers, and I will have finally got my summer garden collection together.

It has taken me a long time to finally have some nice, but in expensive garden furniture and BBQ, so we can enjoy it on our own, or with close family and friends.

And Amethist- tiny lights for your parasol, one day..(?), (they're about 10$ new).
(They look like stars :))

 

[amethist]

Thanks for the reminder Junebug, got lights for the parasol too.

Not stars, but looks a bit like a space ship from underneath :roflmao:

No wonder I love them- The Mother Ship, lol :alien:

Today I sat in the back garden under a parasol with my computer and watched "Notting Hill". Then I had a friend over for a long chat. Finally I went for a one hour walk in the woods with my boys! Sigh...what a treat!:inlove:
