SHOPPING, A1c and LIPIDS

WOKE EARLY.  Hadn't planned on getting up so early, but needed to make a πŸ’΅ BANK RUNπŸͺ™.  Seems we spent more than we should and needed to pull some money from SAVINGS to replenish the checking account.

I practically bounced up out of bed to get groomed for the day and on my way to the BANKS to pull $ out of savings to deposit into checking at a different BANK and community.  A drive.  

I had planned on starting my day wrapping my Son's 50th Birthday gift, do some laundry THEN go to TOWN.  Well, plans change, don't they?  Mine did.  Off we went to the first BANK in a different community then drove to an even different community to deposit the money.  Complicated.  Went on to Manhattan's Walmart to purchase some shelf liner for the new pantry shelves.

I got to thinking that if Walmart did not have the vinyl liner that I bought a couple of years ago, I could go to JO ANN's to see if they had any, but then I remembered that JO ANN's is no mo.  Shucks.  Walmart had it though and all was well.  A white country liner for me.  We checked out without looking at anything else.  Progress for me.

DID NOT make it to the Jewelers or the Optician to check on glasses frames.  Didn't make it to the shoe store or fitness center.  Will try again on Friday. 

Went to STARBUCKS for Iced Tea to take with us to the Laundro-matt.  Hadn't eaten breakfast yet, so we fasted.

FORGOT to get quarters when I was at the BANK, so I needed to do this.  Onto a different community to use their nice Laundro-matt.  BOTH quilts fit in one machine saving me $6.oo.  Good move.  While the quilts washed, we watched American PICKERS on TV.  It was actually fun.  Hadn't watched this show before.  

After the quilts washed and dried, it was time to go HOME.  The quilts turned out super nice.  

I wrapped our Son's gift and Hunny fixed TACOS for us.  I finished and Hunny took box to the Post Office.  Hope he gets it before his birthday.  50 years old on MONDAY.  50.  Brings back so many memories.  πŸ‘ΆπŸΌ GOD has gotten us through so very much.

Checked the health portals for our lab results from Walk In Lab.  Sure enough they were there.  Hubby's results for A1c and Lipids were pretty good.  His A1c had lowered and his Lipids were fantastic.  VERY HAPPY about this.  In 5 weeks we'll do this again at the doctor's office.  My A1c isn't as low as I'd like, but within a good range.  So that's good.  The Lipids were a different story.  Flagged a couple of times.  I printed out my report and compared the ranges with the ones my doc uses and if I were to use my doc's ranges, I'd have been within range, so that's good.

I wonder if I can improve my numbers for the July bloodwork?  Will try really hard to.

So I can compare how I'm doing in the LIPID's department, I went back into the archives to print out the statements.  It takes a little time, but then I have the print-outs paper clipped together for easy recall.  Getting better at being an Office Worker At HOME.  Praise be to GOD.

Operating the HEALTH PORTALS has to improve.  I did email my doctor about my recent balance I was told about at my last appointment and on the same day I received a paper statement because I ASKED FOR IT, I found out that I received a letter from their Debt Collector.  Made me unhappy that I just found out about having a balance and then be turned over to their Debt Collector.  I asked the office where on the portal was the balance due as I had not received a paper statement.  NOT HAPPY WITH THEM ABOUT THIS HIC-UP.  Waiting for their answer.

I watered the porch plants, put a load of towels in the machine, ate lunch, printed out medical papers, tidied up the living room, am blogging, but wanting a nap.  Will rest and continue tidying the HOME.  Putting things into the plastic storage boxes I bought yesterday.  Will cut vinyl shelf liner for the new pantry shelves.  There is a special shelf for SPICES and HERBS that will help with getting the Kitchen in better shape.  Getting organized is an ongoing job for oui, but somebody's got to do it and that would be me. πŸ‘΅

Tis time to get a great deal done with organizing. 


Will need a nap to keep me going.

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
