It is a sunny, crisp day in the dunes. We went to Ouray to soak in the Hot Springs. We left early this morning. It is worth the 2 hr drive. Ouray Colorado is a beautiful drive. It is the kind of town you would expect to see in a Christmas movie on Hallmark. There is nothing like soaking in the hot springs. It is a late Valentine's gift to our family. We didn't want ot go on Valentine's Day because it would be packed. We all went to a yoga class together, our son put us all to shame because he has insane flexibility.
Our road trips are always ones of discussion. We have decided not to continue to the Chosen franchise. The key word is Franchise. We were watching Jesus , His Life on the History channel. I read The Chosen book series. I am Catholic and that is my belief system. The Chosen has Protestant tenets that I am not interested in exploring. Initally, I felt the lean in for a closer look appeal, then I read the books.
The no coffee has been working out well. I haven't been listening to gossip. One of my friends called me this morning while I was in the gym to tempt me with gossip and I reminded her that I wouldn't be indulging in that habit. I edited 3 chapters pf my novel in the car.
DInner is meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and peas tonight. I will be having a lentil loaf. I go back and forth with meat in my diet because sometimes meat upsets my stomach. So, I have a different main dish than the rest of the family. Often times, the kids and the husband want my leftovers for lunch.
I decided to keep my audible account because they have given me a 3 month deal for 7.49 for 1 credit a month. Audible is a big app and I have a program that allows me to download my books to an sd card. It takes less room. Audible saves to the phone memory not the Sd card, so to save space this method is best.
We stopped at the health food store for powdered milk, nuts, yogurt starter, and a other other items. Total 125.00.
Our little neighbor was hollering at me when I stopped to get my mail. She had a Valentine for me. "I have been waiting for you to come home. I made this at school."
