Marvelous Monday

This morning was a pretty typical morning and after reading the paper, I did a load of towels. Then when Kathleen got up, I did a couple loads of laundry. While they were in the washer and dryer, I went outside and worked at pulling up some more of that annoying ivy.

The temperature was in the fifties today, quite a change from last week. Just about all the snow is gone, except for a little bit in some of the really shady areas. So with the nice weather and my feeling pretty good for a change, I though that I would take advantage of something that probably will not be happening too frequently over the next few months.

Anyway, I finished up about noon, so I went inside so that I could get cleaned up for my 1300 radiation appointment. I was only there for about a half hour again, so it does not take up a lot of time; it is just having to do it every day.

After my appointment, Kathleen and I stopped by the credit union to make another deposit. The credit union is only about a half mile from where I have my radiation, so it is pretty convenient.

We also stopped by Winco to do some grocery shopping. We were not out of much of anything, but we were getting low on a few items. I think it took about two hours to get through the store, but about twenty minutes or so of that time was visiting with another couple who happened to be shopping as well.

Since we did not get home until about 1600, I missed lunch, so I grabbed a few baby carrots and cut up some celery and put peanut butter on it. I knew that we would be eating around 1800, so I did not want to eat too much. Maybe if I do this every day I will be able to drop a few pounds.

Kathleen made some "hamburger" soup tonight; she thinks that I need to eat more protein. We did by several containers of soy tofu today, she does not like it, but I do, so maybe we will be adding some new items to our diets.

Well, I still do not feel as tired as I did last Friday or Saturday, which is a good thing. I just hope that I continue to feel as good as I did today, but I am not counting on it. Well, I think I will just say good night, as I do not envision anything exciting happening for the rest of the night.
