My Tireless Retirement - Week 209

 


Hello my friends!  It was a lovely and very busy week for me.  I worked, I did some canning, I went to the No Kings Rally, I meal prepped, I ran errands, I hung out with a friend, I celebrated my 4th Anniversary in retirement and I worked outside in the yard.  I feel very accomplished!

 


It felt really good to spend some quality time in my kitchen this past week.  I canned beef and chicken for my LTFS shelf and also some taco meat.  I even had enough taco meat leftover to make myself a nice taco salad.  Salads have been a big part of my meal plan lately as the weather is warming up.

 


I was able to leave the heating off all week and still feel very comfortable, even in the early morning hours when it is chilly outside.  Later in the day I was able to open windows for fresh air, which I absolutely love.  When I propped the back door open last weekend Stella was kind enough to bring a near dead mouse into the house.  Sadly for her, I promptly exited her houseguest.  She wasn’t very happy with me.

 


I worked Friday, Monday and Tuesday.  Wednesday and Thursday were spent canning and getting caught up on household tasks.  I also managed to get outside between rain showers and pull some weeds.  I cannot believe how prolific the milkweeds are this year, but the chickens are sure enjoying them.

 


It was a super awesome week this past week filled with a variety of different tasks and experiences.  I am super grateful for all I was able to.  What were you able to accomplish?
