#1 granddaughter – Seclusion 101 with AnneMarie

Today is Day 327 of my Daily Food Diary! 😎

I have been trying to be mindful of what I eat (and cook) for almost eleven months now. I have even been putting a respectable effort into choosing our menu – especially supper. Despite all this effort, often – like once a week, I find out that my daughter, her daughter, or both of them – made exactly the same thing as us on the same day. Last week it was Genie. For supper on Saturday, Dan made Baked French Onion Soup. After, seeing my blog on Sunday – Genie messaged me to say that she had done likewise for herself and her sister Prim. So strange – I know Genie makes a lot of homemade soup, but I don’t think either of us make French Onion Soup regularly. But apparently, when we do..🤔

It is another relatively pleasant day in Southern Saskatchewan – so far! There is talk of snow but we have dodged it so far. (or at least the snow that comes and stays until spring)

We went for our morning walk. The humidity was relatively high (93%) but I still did quite well coughing wise – a few random coughs, but no coughing fits, so that was good!

This one is to share my win for yesterday. I got my wedding rings on. I haven’t been able to wear them for months – since I caught my finger on Molly’s chain (leash) when I was walking her. The swelling in my knuckle refused to go down. Now it is finally gone. 😁

It is 147 Days since I began my Daily Food Diary. That is a full 21 Weeks ! 🎉

Yesterday, Dan went golfing at Katepwa, so having completed Molly’s walk and my aerobic workout I was looking at taking a day off.

Such was not the case when granddaughter Genie pedaled up on her bike. 💖😊💖

We headed outside to spend some quality time in the garden. At one point, Molly leapt over the strawberry plant in the corner planter to stay close to her favorite human. 🤦

About three hours later, we came back inside. While we continued our visit, Genie painted a couple of little yard ornaments.

I bought the angel one last year as a tribute to our beloved Kat. Genie touched it up to give it a bit more pop. The frog is the one I picked up at the Dollar Store last week.

Genie stayed until Grandpa got back from golf, then headed home before it got dark.

We had a quick supper and that was a wrap for my day. I forget if I mentioned it in an earlier post, but I have been sleeping like a rock! On multiple days I have been out cold by 8 or 9 pm and sleeping until 5:30 am (which is now Molly’s time to start our day)!

**It’s hard to lay around once Molly decides it is time to get up.**
