it’s monday!!!

tgim!  I love Monday. Seriously.  Everyone goes to school/work and Izzy and I are left with quiet (except for Sesame Street).  I finished my closet project and need to shift out all the stuff I got rid of today.  I was brutal!  I finished after 1 a.m. Thursday night so by that time I didn’t care much about getting rid of stuff!  One thing I had trouble getting rid of was purses.  I have many many many purses and I didn’t get rid of any (except the one I gave to Amanda)… why do I hold on to those purses?  I had them on hooks in the back corner of my walk in L shaped closet and they were really just in the way.  I moved them into a zip up comforter bag and it is too full and crazy heavy.  Part of me wants to just pitch the whole thing and part of me can’t imagine tossing one of them!  Oh well…

This is going to be a busy week!  Not a whole lot planned for today (yet).  I am making tacos for dinner so I can make Matt’s taquitos that we are out of.  I’ll make some guacamole and have refried (fat free) beans and maybe rice.  Matt wants some special glasses with changeable lenses so I may make a trip to a store in the city if everything else gets finished before noon. Tuesday we are going to the nursing home with our church.  We found out our 93 year old neighbor just got moved to that nursing home so it’ll be nice to say hello.  She is still very with it.  She has just not completely recovered from pneumonia. I am going to make burgers since we’ll have to leave early.  Wednesday is church night, so I’ll put some pork chops in the crockpot with onions and potatoes…  Thursday I’m going to Winter Jam!  Mandisa is going to be there!  I plan to get something carry out because I will have to leave really early to meet up with the group at church.

I’m on my second cup of raspberry coffee.  I never really got the hang of enjoying coffee honestly.  But today when Matt mentioned he was completely out of his hazelnut coffee I remembered a one pot pouch of this raspberry coffee so I made it.  He hated it!  But with a little cream and sugar it was pretty good to me!  Now I just have to count 2 points per cup of coffee to equal four for breakfast… plus the reduced sugar granola bar which is 2… So 6 for basically a few oats with chocolate chips and coffee!  Oh well :)

    HI Annie! Your week sounds busy but fun!!! I am a purse and shoe hoarder also. It isn’t even just purses for me, tote bag are a favorite of mine. Every time I buy a new one, Kerry just raises his eyebrows. Well, I am off to work and looking forward to my first cup of coffee. :)
    Happy Monday to you…

    You sound like an excellent cook!!! I’m jealous of your kids :)
    I don’t think I could get rid of my purses. I’m impressed you even got rid of anything in your closet!!! I even keep stuff that I’ve accidentally bleached :( (Maybe I’ll need it someday? Moving clothes? ha ha)

    Have you tried the FiberOne granola bars? The oats and chocolate one tastes like a candy bar, keeps me full for hours and has 9 grams of fiber. It’s 2 WW points.

    Hi there! It’s good to be blogging again.

    Oh, I know what you mean about having trouble throwing out/giving away purses. I’m the same way. I know I should…but it’s hard.

    How’s Izzy Bear?

    Hugs,

  9. Hello my friend,

    I missed coming to your blog a lot this week. Sorry…

    My thought on the purses is….KEEP THEM. But I am probably a bad one to ask. I love purses. I have a WAY to many. But …but..okay no excuse. I just love em.

    Have a wonderful week

    Hugs

    I’d love it if I could make myself do some good brutal closet cleaning, haha! Good job getting that done! :)

    Enjoy your visit to the nursing home! Visiting with the people there can make you feel so loved, because they are usually very appreciative! :)

  11. Hey Annie!

    You have super-powers I don’t possess if you can get rid of your purses (handbags)!

    Funny you mentioned it because I also have to go through mine again – it’s crazy!

    AND I seriouslly have to declutter my clothes too – as you know, I do it regularly BUT since the op last year, my tummy has not gone back to normal. It’s 3 months now so chances of that happening are slim, aren’t they?

    Have a lovely week!

    I need someone to be brutal with my closet! I have a hard time letting go of stuff but sometimes it’s easier if I’m sick of it being around.

    I am so NOT into purses…This year I actually bought a black one because I was quite sure I “shouldn’t” be carrying a light one in the winter. Perhaps you could send a little of your purse attachment my way??? You know, to get me up to where I ought to be? *grin*
    Hope you have a great week, Annie!
