My New Life - Part 2

This morning I had my hair cut.  Not a trim, a cut.  Afterwards, a breakfast sandwich at Panera Bread.

Before:

After!

And breakfast!

My New Life - Part 1

One of the things I enjoy doing is going out and trying new restaurants.

Because of dietary and taste restrictions of my Mother, much of where I wanted to go and try out was pretty much out of the picture, along with the fact that i was trying to get out of debt, so eating out was a luxury I couldn't afford at the time.

With my debt now gone and my caregiving days are behind me, I'm starting with some of the favorites that I know and love.

This past Wednesday, November 8th, that started with Wildflower Bakery on Guadalupe and McClintock.  Their Chicken Parmesan is one of the best, served over bread.  Yum.

Thank You For Your Service.

Ways To Cope With Stress

There are a few ways I’ve been coping with stress, one of them being lemon flavored wafer cookies, namely the kind pictured.  Then, of course, there is always chocolate.

Final Debt Paid Off

This isn’t how I wanted this to end, with the death of my Mother, but as I was down to my last debt, it only took a fraction of my inheritance to pay off my debt.  I’m now debt free.

Thank You Petsmart

As it turns out, those cancelled crates were the wrong size.  Since I was already getting Mom’s dog ready for her new home, I ordered the correct size and picked them up.

Mom’s dog looks completely different with a buzz cut, and their groomers are top notch.
