Hello again, savvy savers! I wanted to end my weekly posts by bring the week to a close with a post about the reflections on this past week.

The highs for the week:

Losing two pounds.
Trying to expand my family!
The ongoing repurposing of two rooms in my home.
Continuing a daily devotional.

My lows for the week:

Preparing for a new life without being a caretaker to a family living with dementia, who has gone to live with relatives; seeing a relative seemingly disappear in plain sight in truly frustrating, and through continued prayer, I hope to make it through this difficult time. As I have been a working in the clerical field, as well as being a caretaker, it will be a transition to become a wife and family, without this role in tact as I have been a caretaker the entirety of my marriage. Though this is a needed transition, change can be difficult, travel expensive, and feelings are still the hardest casualty of all!

My quote for the week:

All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That’s his. -Unknown

My inspiration for the week:

Being able to recycle 90% of my weekly trash!

My humor for the week:

Catching myself singing out loud, being caught doing so, and not even caring!

Goals For The Coming Week:

Lose 1 pound, organize my insurance records, organize my will, walk the dogs 1/2 mile a day, have all blog assignments done on time, finish four product and boxed subscription reviews, oil paint for a few hours, take one hour for myself each night, and sleep 7 hours nightly!

Happy Sunday!

    I’m so sorry about losing your family member to other family. It can be really hard to let go of something that you knew and someone that you took care of for such a long time!

    However… great job on the weigh loss 🙂 I hope it wasn’t stress related.
