2024 Project 365 – Week Nineteen

Open enrollment has launched and now I have a couple of weeks to get things organized before the big push to get all the paperwork turned in and the changes entered into the system. There are complications this year (due to the aforementioned world building project, and changes to some payroll schedules) and I’m having some middle of the night worry sessions about those. I just have to make it to the middle of July and it might calm down. Maybe. Anyway, another couple of months of complaining to you.

I was already in bed & remembered we hadn’t taken a photo, so here is one of me laughing at something Dr. M said. I wish I could remember what it was so I could tell you, but we laugh a lot.
 

Monday, May 6^th     
If it’s Monday it must be Peaches.
 

Tuesday, May 7^th                             
It’s an arpeggio of birbs! The fledged over Dr. M’s head the next day.
 

Went on a walk with Kim & she brought her latest child, Teddy. He is adorable.
 

Wednesday, May 8^th       
We aren’t getting many peonies this year, but what we have are lovely.  
 

It was my boss's birthday & I had some of the devil’s most excellent lemonade. I never go there, but we get Chick Fil A frequently at work because it’s one of his favorite places to eat. My principles are no match for for free food.

You may recall that I ordered this cutting board after I saw it at my sister-in-law’s house. This was exactly how I envisioned it being used. Dr. M chopped up all these peppers to put in the freezer & then cut up veggies for the stir fry he made later in the day.

No photo.

Dr. M’s dad’s blueberry bush – I’m going to be busy later!

Tonight may or may not be the last game of the season for my Carolina Hurricanes. They have to win to continue their playoff run. Win or lose it has been a GREAT season. Do you have anything ending or beginning?

2024 Project 365 – Week Eighteen

Dr. M and I have been busy busy, so this selection of photos is…interesting.
Sunday, April 28^th                  
Dr. M & went to a Celebration of Life service for his Aunt Judy (and about 180 other people). It was hosted by Atrium Health and was a lovely service. If you look closely you can see Dr. M getting ready to light a candle for Judy.
 

Monday, April 29^th     
Peaches is making her debut for the summer. Pretty!
 

Tuesday, April 30^th                             
Dr. M’s dad got new glasses. He was so glad – he’d broken his other ones and really missed them!
 

Wednesday, May 1^st      
My doctor had asked me to monitor my blood pressure (she’s thinking of adjusting my meds). Think she should?
 

Thursday, May 2^nd                                 
TBT – my brother and me with my Aunt Lila. Aren’t we adorable? We were putting money in the jar for the NC Baptist Children’s Home offering. That photo was on the cover of their publication that month.

Friday, May 3^rd             
I was shocked! Shocked I say!
 

Late afternoon snack. There’s oatmeal somewhere under there.
 

Saturday, May 4^th                                
The recycle bin under my desk (I worked for a while today.) I don’t have a Sundrop problem. Why do you ask?
 

I worked late almost every day last week (and skipped lunch most days). We have a coworker out and it’s open enrollment and there’s that new system we’ve been working on. It’s a little intense. My coworkers are already being extra nice around me because they don’t want to see Scary Dana. Ha! What’s going on in your world?
