Souvenirs from my trip to Egypt. (before George) |
To stay safe during this time, I go out to the grocery store when needed. I am following the suggestions from our government to help slow the curve of the virus. In some ways, it isn't hard for me to do, as George was the one to do the shopping and I was reading.
I have finally read 2 books since October, which is unusual for me as I could read a book a day. I'm starting to get into a new routine. It will take time as my mind wanders. I start a project, go to another and eventually finish each project. I have a project to put up more pictures that are of my family as it has grown. At the moment it is not completed as I need more pictures printed and then frames as well. This I consider a non-essential project, so it will wait for better days ahead.
Unfortunately, at the moment another non-essential project is the RV. I was really hoping that by now it would be closer to being ready to sell. I haven't been out to it in the last couple of weeks. It still needs a couple of compartments looked at, compartments cleaned as well as the living space. It will have to wait for now.
Yesterday, I wanted to do shake and bake chicken in the oven. Now, I know that we had shake and bake chicken packages, but do you think I could find them. Not sure if we ran out (which I find hard to believe as George always replaced something when we were low) or if the package was expired and therefore, it found the garbage. I then improvised the Honey Pecan Chicken recipe (thanks Deb) on the blog minus the pecans which I didn't have. I must say, it turned out pretty good. I used a chicken leg which took a lot longer than the chicken breast in the recipe.
Know that I am safe, eating well and getting my rest. I hope all you readers out there are doing your best to stay safe and healthy as well.
God bless you all.

Nice to hear from you. I was wondering how you were doing and then POOF you submit a blog. Glad to hear that you are managing well. I'm sure you have many moments that are sad, but nice to see you fixing up your new home. Take care...and please continue to post.
ReplyDeleteLove you Suz
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you Suzi! You seem to be adjusting to your new normal, as we all have to adjust to ours. Pictures look great!, and will provide memories of the best moments of your past.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of you yesterday as i made a hot dog for lunch ... with peanut butter! Thanks George :))
Take your time with the RV Suzi, it is not the best time to sell right now and I assume you have it parked somewhere you are not paying rent. You are doing great! We are all proud of you and George would be happy!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the update Sue.... glad to hear about the progress with your new place and that you are able to get back to your reading.
ReplyDeleteTake care....

It was so good to hear from you Suzie. Sounds like you are keeping busy. Thank you for keeping up with your blog. I love how your decorating your apartment.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you getting your nest just as you like it. We never know just how strong and resilient we are until we have to be eh?
ReplyDeleteIt's great to hear from you Suzie and I'm glad you are keeping busy. Good job on hanging the pictures, they look great :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's beginning to look like home at your place Suzie. George would be happy and very proud of your self reliance. It's always nice to be able to do things for yourself.
ReplyDeleteThe mind wandering is a common thing, it's difficult to concentrate but it will come back. There is no hurry to do anything with the RV, take your time and do it right. Rushing is never a good thing.
Easy recipe for the chicken, we haven't had it for a while, thanks for reminding me.
Take care Suzie, stay safe and healthy!!!
It would be good if decorating just kept you in forward motion. Making it look as great as it does is terrific, Suzi, congratulations on jobs so well done! Adding your learning as you go all the cooking you do now has been another challenge well met. Thanks for sharing parts your life with us again, sending you a cyber hug, God bless you, - Mary
ReplyDeleteGlad you are staying Safe and Enjoying your time Social isolating as a way of fighting this Virus.

Great job on the picture hanging Suzie, also good to hear you are back to reading. The RV can wait for now. Great that you are moving forward, and I know George is smiling down on you. Take care and stay healthy.
ReplyDeleteBill is better than I am at reading blogs these days. I'm usually a day or two behind! He does speak for me as I speak for him in my blog posts.
DeleteAll your news is great to hear. I love the clock. :)
Good to hear from you again and to know you are well. I think you did a good job with the picture hanging as it is difficult to get them straight. I hope you stay well and keeping busy as well as reading when you feel like it.

ReplyDeleteGreat post Suzie. Like everyone else we look forward to your updates. I wish I could do such a great job hanging pictures:)) Probably not a good time to put RVs on the market with travel being restricted so take your time. Take care and stay safe.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update Suzie, as I have been wondering how you were doing. Take care.

ReplyDeletegood to see you have kept yourself busy keep up the good work
ReplyDeleteReally looks like your place is turning into a lovely home, what a beautiful clock to have from your grandmother. There is something about having special pictures and things filled with memories that makes where ever we are home. I had to chuckle when you said the mistakes are not visible more then once when I was hanging pictures there were extra little nail holes under the picture...lol
ReplyDeleteTake care, stay safe and healthy.
So glad to hear from you. Please keep us updated. Stay safe ❤️
ReplyDeleteGreat as always to get your update. Thanks for keeping us in the loop. Early Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you Suzie! Glad you're staying safe.
ReplyDeleteI had been wondering about you and I was very happy to see a new post from you. Your apartment keeps on looking more like a home with each new post.
ReplyDeleteGlad you have been able to spend more time reading an activity I know you enjoy. Thank you for taking the time to keep up with the blog. Stay safe and take care.
Love that you are decorating your house with memories. The clock sounds like an awesome piece with so many memories.
ReplyDeleteWe're all in this together and the best thing to do are projects around the house. Decorating is always fun, pulling things out of boxes that have gone to the shed, attic or closet. The clock is beautiful. I was an apprentice clockmaker for a year while I was finishing high school. I worked on a lot of those clocks. I have a newer one in our studio. Keep safe and warm. Enjoy your books. They are good friends.
