Well, I have mostly organized my room- walk in closet, drawers. I went thru my clothes and have lost enough weight that I am down at least a size in pants. I did join the gym(under $10 a month) I am clearing the pantry and getting ready to sell some items. I wanted to get organized because once I start work again I will not have time. I am praying about the job. I have a tentative offer but the pay is much lower here in the Sacramento area. I really do not want to travel but may have to in order...

I have filed for unemployment for the first time in my life. I still have not received any disability pay, so I sold some more gold and silver, another $3300, to help cover expenses. So for the year over 13k in gold and silver. I am getting low on items, so not much jewelry and coins left for an emergency fund. Now that I can lift over 5 pounds, I am going thru the antiques to list on ebay or a space rental at an antique store. I have a harp brass music stand from the 1880's and a French stool along...

I had my youngest daughter help me wrap the presents for the school and also give me advice for the 15 and 17 year old clothes choices.

My big project...

I am getting my PICC line out today. I have big plans on all the things I am going to do. Not being able to lift over 5 pounds has put a severe cramp in my style. My purse weighs more than 5 pounds(LOL) We signed up for a family at church sponsored thru a local school, single mom with 5 girls. My challenge has been to get them gifts $40 limit for each one and they listed clothes and books. I found sweaters on sale for $25-30, That really blows the budget for the other things. I did get some classic...

I am back. I actually had Murphy working overtime. I got sick , didn't control my blood sugar and had about 6 nicks from shaving that went into abscesses on my legs and was in the hospital for a week with DKA and had 2 surgical debridements. So I am watching the blood sugar very closely. I am having home health for the wounds and IV antibiotics. I am not worrying about debt too much right now. I lost about a month of pay but the health is more important. I also lost 10 more pounds being sick. I...
