One Day at a Time — Day 11 — I Was Wrong

 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.                                    Galatians 5:6


I was wrong about New Amsterdam.  It wasn’t on.  Instead we had the pleasure of watching The Golden Globes which I didn’t.  I quit watching those award shows decades ago.  I was disappointed about New Amsterdam so now I have to search for when it is going to air.  Blah.


I had a tachycardia episode last night.  Was awake from 2 a.m. to 4:30.  Finally fell asleep and woke up with my heart rate in a normal rythmn.  So, that is fine but I am tired.  In that 2 1/2 hour period I read, I got up and played on my iPad, I took an extra pill, I watched the deck clips — I have discovered that the less upset I get over an episode, the quicker it rights itself.  My tachycardia is caused by stress. Hahaha!  I have been doing it since I was 22.  I have had four doctors diagnose it.  It is just a fact of my life.


Since I feel like rubbish, like a lot of jet lag, I am not sure what I am going to get accomplished today.  I know I have to vacuum the living room carpet and wash at least one load of laundry.  No guarantees when that will happen.


I spent some time yesterday evening perusing the offerings on Kindle Unlimited looking for some good reads for this year — I already have a rather long “want to read” list.  But there are so many things that look good — it is going to be a good reading year.


I am still reading my current little Irish Christmas read.  It is going good but it is a bit draggy in places — I think they could step it up a bit but it is still engaging enough so we will see how it goes.


The weather today is going to be gorgeous — mid 80’s this afternoon — my kind of winter being the South Texas gal I am.  However, tomorrow it is going to be chilly again and that is ok, my cold weather friends need some love too.


Speaking of weather, isn’t that flooding in California awful?  I have to say though that I wonder if we would be getting so much coverage if it wasn’t an area of high celebrity.  I know, that was snarky.  I am sorry, I am sleep deprived.


So, with that said, I think it is time to go have a nice cuppa — I hope I don’t fall asleep with the cup in my hand —

Sorry about your disturbed night. I hope you get through the day okay. Maybe take a nap?

We enjoyed New Amsterdam, didn't know they had any new episodes out?

They had one last week and then the series finale is on the 17th. I just got a little too excited thinking it was this past Tuesday. But it will be a 2 hour episode because it is the end — I am really anxious to see what happens with Helen.

Granny, thanks — I probably will!

What’s Up for the New Week —

 It is Saturday and it appears we are emerging from the arctic freeze we have been experiencing.  I am sure I have mentioned here that I am ...
