Happy Tuesday Everyone! it's a nice day here today and I'm really enjoying it. I know it's not going to last and the cold weather will be here before we know it. The evenings are getting darker quicker than I'd like.
Today is the last day of September and tomorrow will be October. A day that means a lot to me as it's the day I became a mom (many years ago). This is the first time my daughter will be away for her birthday (she and my son in law are on a cruise) so our birthday celebrations won't be until they get back. I remember bringing her home from the hospital as if it was yesterday. Time flies by way too fast.
While she's away celebrating her birthday my big plans for tomorrow starts with a doctor appointment
. it's just routine and I don't know if I'll have to have bloodwork done but will fast tonight just in case. That way I can get it done right there in the lab if he orders it.
Today is just a normal, routine day. Been shredding a whole bunch of old bills which is a pain and I don't know why I have them since they're years old. Of course when I emptied the shredder basket half of it spilled on the floor so I had to clean up that mess and wound up vacuuming the whole downstairs. Even though vacuuming wasn't on my radar for today, at least it's done now and I can mentally cross it off my "to do" list.
I have chicken in the crockpot with teriyaki sauce for our dinner tonight. It's already starting to smell really good and will probably drive my daughter crazy that she'll be smelling it all day while she works.
That about sums up my day so far. How's your day going?

@Marilynda1225 I hope so, but I am afraid it might be too much to keep the car. That's worse case scenario but inspection is coming up in February, and not really sure what will need to be done then..brakes for sure which aren't cheap.I don't want to just keep dumping money into a car that has alot of miles on it.

@snowy22315 doesn't make sense to spend a lot of money if the car isn't worth it.

Happy Birthday to your daughter.
I love October better than any other month of the year.
Our wedding anniversary is on Friday, the 3rd.
The weather at this time of the year is gorgeous, although lately a bit hotter than I prefer.
We're having chicken tonight too.
I think that I'll make mashed potatoes and corn to go along with it.
Happy Chicken Day to you.

Chicken seems like a popular choice for dinner tonight.
Congrats on your upcoming anniversary. My parents were married on Oct 11 so I think of them when that date rolls around. Not that I don't think of them on other days

It sounds like a lovely day where you are! I haven’t done much today except eat lunch at my dad’s, and try to feel better. I’m really lagging.
I’m sorry you won’t be with your daughter on your birthday, but I bet the celebration when she gets back will be very nice!

I love all my kids but the first one is just special.
Hope all that lagging leaves and you feel better. Its terrible when you just drag yourself through the day

Sounds like an interesting day you are having. Weird thing-- we are fixing chicken for our dinner too. And the same way. In the crockpot with barbecue sauce and some pop. My daughter has fixed this before and it was delicious.

Barbecue sauce with pop is a good way to make chicken. Funny that we're both making similar dishes.

Happy Birthday to your daughter. I can't believe it's October; and the days are getting so short. I hate it! Have a great day.
