What is the one extra thing you would like to do for yourself today above and beyond your normal tasks? Mine might sound real silly but it is as simple as being determined to make my fireplace shelf look nice. It has not been organized in months and months. Just looks boring and now getting cluttered with stuff lately.

Well I really don't have anything to do for me now. What has been on my mind a lot lately is trying to get things for my brother for Christmas along with my grandchildren.
This year money is just not there. But I do want my brother to have a good Christmas sine he has not had anything done for him at all for almost 6 years now.
He has come back around family now and I just want this holiday to be special for him as well as the children.
I don't know yet how I will pull this off other than having a good meal for everyone. That in itself cost so much for the amount of people I cook for.
You see I do all of the cooking.
I will try to get some decorations throughout the home. I don't have a tree so this will have to do.
So this is what I want for me to be happy. As long as I can do this and have all of the family together this year that is all I want.

Sounds like your Brother will like it just simple where it is easy to see the love of the family. I feel so excited for you. I have been there in some way or another so I think I can relate. I have mostly done all the cooking through the years as well but not lately. Well not sometimes. My daughter has been married 10 years and she did it a couple of time in recent years and oh boy was that nice. But anyway back to your Brother. No worries keep it simple and fun. It will be more then okay1

I have not been feeling that great lately , and have not done anything to day. Yesterday I did some baking with a help of a friend and I felt really good. One other thing that I did and it was small but I was glad I did it . I grabbed the broom and swept up the bathroom floor before my friend came . I was glad I did that didn't have to be embarrassed when she went in it later on .

Would like to get my nails done today but don't think I'll have the time. My nails grow like crazy and get very long and sometimes sloppy looking. Then they begin to break and really look unkept. Might just cut them here and then file them so at least they look presentable. Last time I had my nails done was 3 yrs. ago before our daughter's wedding. Makes it difficult to type when they are too long also.

Fantastic! I am looking forward to seeing your website launched. That is quite an accomplishment.
I'm a working mom so...I'm pretty much doing something all the time and I only get to sleep for like four hours. So yeah, that'll probably be my special treat for myself. @CoffeeAnyone (3210)
