Just another day

 Good morning Saturday! Not sure what my plans will be since its a chilly fall day. I woke up at 5am, let Zoey outside and started doing yoga but fell asleep on the floor and slept till 8am. I haven't done that in ages where I fall back to sleep. I must have needed the extra rest! I still feel extra tired. I think all the news this past week has me on over load. I need a break! 

Friday night was not super exciting. I put a beef roast in the crock pot for taco's around 2pm and let it cook for 8 hours. It wasn't done till 9pm. It smelled soo good, I had to try some before putting it in the refrigerator. Delicious! It will make really yummy taco's today. I picked up Taco Bell for Steve's dinner. He was still painting and needed food. The people have yet to move in, which made it possible for me to keep him company. I read the news to him on the internet while he painted. Probably why I'm on news over load lately! I need to back away from it all. The election, Covid so much at stake these next 30 some days from now. It's hard to look forward to November even if I want to, just because we want the outcome a certain way. Even after the election if it goes our way, there is still many months and days until Jan 21st! What if the outcome is not what we want? What if we have 4 more years of this? I can't even go there! 

So yeah, maybe I'm a bit depressed, numb, wanting to move on, and just wanting to just sleep till this is over. Can we just get to the end of the credits where the good guys win and its a happy ending? 

Zoey is doing a good job of sleeping through this! Speaking of dogs. I received a photo Friday of the 5 female cocker spaniel puppies. 2 really light almost white, 2 red and 2 tan. It's hard to tell if any have white on the face since it was just their body from a distance of the whole littler of girls. I'll get face photos next week when their eyes open. Steve is not on board with getting another dog. It's not like I need permission to get another dog, but it would be nice to be all on the same page wanting one or at least being okay with getting another dog. Do we need 2? Not really, but I want a dog. At least I think I do? I have to put a deposit down soon so a decision must be made. The puppy wouldn't come home with us till Nov 18 at the earliest. So it's not like tomorrow we have a puppy! Would Zoey be happy with another dog around?  It's hard to know? I've never had two dogs at the same time. 

It's Friday or Karma Day?

 It's chilly! I tried to sit out doors yesterday for all of a hot second. Even bundled up in a sleeping bag didn't help! I gave up and sat inside! I'm already dreading winter months! 

So here we are, back at Friday! I was woken up from a dream state by Steve only to hear, the Dumper tested positive Covid. Surprised? Not at all. If you don't wear a mask, mock those that do, hold KKK rallies what do you expect? Must be Karma! That's all I'm going to say!

I'm not a religious, praying kind of person, but I will be praying on Election Day! 

I'm in need of losing some weight. I have this tomorrow, tomorrow I'll start attitude right now. It's always tomorrow! I need to fit into these jeans again! I have big plans to make some wild rice soup, just broth, not the creamy kind. I'm also going to run more miles or do a run/walk to get in more miles. I'm just not happy with the Covid weight I put on. In the beginning, I was dropping weight easily in the early days of Covid. I hardly ate, because I just wasn't hungry. Now, I'm the opposite, eating away my anxiety of this virus, and the election, the daily news etc.. Time to focus back on me, getting strong again and dropping some pounds. There is no more tomorrow! It's going to be today. Well, just ate some bread with butter but the next meal for sure. Just because you screw up one meal, doesn't mean it has to wreck the entire day! 

Steve's been working a ton lately! He worked again last night till 10pm. He is in the middle of a big paint job and a bathroom remodel. Trying to do both this week and weekend! I have nothing planned for the next 4 days because I won't be seeing much of him. Kind of makes for a boring weekend! I am just going to do a lot of soup, and cracker baking! Clean my own house and start organizing more. 

One bit of good new, I'm getting puppy pictures today! It's good and bad. I'm not sure 100% we need a puppy. I sure do want one! Such a hard decision and I know once I see those little faces it's going to be an even harder decision! 

Here we are Thursday!

 I went for my run this morning and decided to run again later in the day. I need to start picking up my running miles! Plus, I need to stop reading all the news in the afternoon! It's driving me a bit crazy!! A mental brake from all the craziness would do me a lot of good! 

I still so undecided if I should get a puppy or not? I will be getting photos Friday of female cockers puppies that were born last week. Steve is against getting another dog. Everyone else is wanting one. We would still have to wait 6 to 8 weeks before we could bring her home. I know when I see those puppy faces the decision will be even harder! I did make a pro and con list and unfortunately, my con list was a lot longer then the pros. I have no idea of what to do! This is a 10+ year decision!!!
