I've had a headache all day. H has been really sweet, putting out hay for the horses and feeding the ducks for me. He started a project of cleaning out a closet last week. We have had fights about him starting a project and then telling me I HAVE to help him finish. I helped him last week (and sorted and got rid of a bunch of my old clothes), but then had the duck tragedy to deal with. This weekend, I helped him again with going through his clothes and deciding what to donate and what to turn into cleaning rags. He was being so sweet doing chores for me, I realized that "his" project should really be "our" project, despite the headache.
Between the two of us, we have donated three big trash bags of clothes. Most of it was mine, embarrassingly enough. My D said I should acknowledge that I have lost weight and kept it off for the last couple of years, and I should get rid of any clothing that another human would fit into with me. LOL. So, I got rid of the XXL shirts and the XL shirts. I got rid of the pants size 18 through 14. [Actually, I kept a couple of 14s to ride in because I dislike riding in tighter jeans.[ D says the 12s are too big also, but I like them, although the two pairs of 8s that I borrowed from D actually fit. I'm doing Weight Watchers now to try to get out of the 'overweight' range, so I don't want to buy new pants yet. I made it out of the "obese" range by myself, but then got stuck.
I also got a dehydrator at an estate sale yesterday, so I cut up a bunch of fresh fruit to dry: bananas, strawberries and mango. I made a couple of pumpkin pies. One is a "test" pie for us to eat, and one to freeze in prep for Thanksgiving. I dyed my hair and worked on a bedspread I am crocheting for my son. I did a bunch, just in tiny spurts. The headache is ramping up again so I think I'm going to switch to the prescription meds.
Hope everyone had a productive day!
