the essence

I haven't been out much lately because of our whole car situation. Ray's been going to his Dad's a lot more to work on the house since real estate is so slow & he puts in a pretty full day while there. But it leaves me home without a car!

So, the most exciting thing I've done since Saturday is go to Super Target for grocery shopping & coffee. But, that kind of little get away makes me happy so I'm doing good.

I have discovered the joys of swollen feet! Mind you, I'm already a size 10 wide, so adding water retention to the mix really gives my ankles/feet a bad look! (Thankfully no "cankles" though, so I guess it's not that bad) I started noticing them about two weeks ago & actually panicked a bit - I didn't want to get swollen ankles!

Well, yesterday Ray had me working on the computer most of the day so I wasn't up doing all of the house cleaning & maintenance as usual. Lo & Behold, my feet still looked pretty normal by the end of the day & this morning I don't seem to have any swelling! I need to find more computer work to keep me off my feet.

So, I just wrote two paragraphs about my swollen ankles, I told you not much exciting has been going on.
