New Years Eve 2025

 I cannot believe this is the LAST day of 2025.  What a year it has been  I was talking to KR about how many doctor visits I had this year and I should go over my phone and find out.  We were up early as I had hard time staying asleep.  KR slept in a bit longer.  Sleep score still in the 30's.  

After a successful session I went for a bike ride before the rain.  KR went to check the surf, no go.  Maybe diving but if the rain is too bad, would be too too slippery.  He went to play pickleball at 9 and I started the prime rib roast.  I forgot the garlic powder until Kurt woke up and said that roast smells good !!!  I just sprinkled it all over.  I also baked the last two potatoes from Adele.

By 11 30 I was really hungry and we had 'supper' at 11 45.  We scarfed down the roast and they had potato and I had Sumi's salad and KR had regular salad.  I had gone to the store earlier and bought OJ, salad, bananas, and apple juice all for a little over 10 bucks.  I had the free OJ coupon.  For years it was free may coupons and now it is free OJ.  I don't care free is good.

We took a nap.   I had the bad cough for a bit.  KR went and dropped off two lobsters for Elijah and foster mom.  Kurt is gonna take one up to the party tonight.  KR had a nice long chat with Tyler.

Tuesday very little rain

 Tuesday 12/30  One more day of 2025

I was up before 5 again.  Can't sleep well.  KR didn't have bible study.  It was COLD  I had yoga class at 9 and then pilates at 10.  Andrea came to clean.  KR went to the airport and picked up Kurt, Corrina and Helen and took them home before coming back.  Kurt said they had a fairly good time.  They didn't do much, and takes the 'girls' too long to get ready, not like our family.  We say GO and we go!!!

OH WELL

I did tell him later that I am the only one I know that takes a 2 min shower, always.

KR went to FM and then had lunch and nap.  Went diving and got 10 lobsters and gave away 3.  Last night Sumi took 2, tonight Charity took 2, and Kristine got 2.  We put three in the freezer.  

I cooked burgers.  Kurt had a counceling appt with  orrina.  He told KR that Corrina does not seem to pay him enough attention when friends are around.  In which case KR says, cut bait and go fishing.

Monday

 What a day

KR went diving and limited, but threw 2 back.

I saw Dr Fleming and he said I don't have disc issues and don't need back surgery

OH MY WHAT TO DO

I cleaned and did some photos and KR took my chair off to reupholtery and he took Angel down to the beach and it was really cold in the morning.

Angel peed on my carpet again and I stepped in it.  KR rinsed it out and washed that part outside.

Sumi came by and brought cabbage salad and then came back for lobsters, KR gave her two.

What a day.

My hip/groin hurts and very dizzy.

Sunday Dan Parkins sermon 12/28/2025

Today is Grayce House and Dad Bingemann's birthday.  Grayce is 21 and dad would be almost 100?

 Pastor Paul should be coming home today, according to church.

It was COLD this morning and I was up by 4 30, seems like the cat BunBun just wanna wake us up early and walk around.  So we were up by about 5.  I spent the first two hours cleaning the counter which I had left a mess last night and then KR took Angel to the beach, it was too cold for me to walk around outside.  He saw Sean and took a pic and I sent it to Hubert.

We went to church in two cars.  The vertigo was much better today, not like yesterday.  Hip pain not too bad either.  My appt is tomorrow, Dr Fleming, at Coastal, which is now Cedar Sinai.

I went for a ride around, and it warmed up a bit to 67 or something, sunny.  

KR came home and had late lunch and we tried to nap.  I went to sleep right away and KR says my apnea kept him awake so he did pictures.

KR watched a bunch of YouTube videos and had some soup I made from the ham bone Chuck gave us last night and we read more of Dan Parkins' 30 days of Trial and went to bed.  Tomorrow is the last week of 2025.  Where did the time go?

Saturday

 HAHA  I am finally writing the same day as the post

We were up really early.  Bun woke me up and I was up by 5 am!!!  We went to the beach after coffee and walked Angel.  It was really cold.  Then it was laundry and FM and PICKLEBALL  !!!!  Yup I played about half hour with KR and to the jacuzzi.  

I was SUPER DIZZY today

Alden text me and asked if we had any more Serequel, nope, said he needs an appt to get more.  

KR had a nap and I rode around and saw a blanket I might go back to get tomorrow

KR went and played pickleball AGAIN with the NH group.  

I just laid around as the hip started to whinge me a little, but mostly the dizziness.  Charity came by and dropped off cookies that Nyssa baked. OH WOWOWOWO  We had left over.  Chuck came by with a ham bone and I started the Instapot but we have NO split pea or lentil.  Will have to buy some tomorrow.

We read chapter 2 or Dan's 30 days....

Boxing Day 12/26/2025

 So it rained some today, most of the day was clear, and not too cold. 

No Marmi nor Mr Gray this morning, but they both came this evening and I even brought Mr Gray into the garage and he stayed a bit while I was petting him.  Maybe I can make him a somewhat indoor cat in 2026.

Kurt and Corrina and Helen landed late last night in Seattle and was at Conor's apartment.  Looks very nice in the city of Kent, south of the city, by a lake.  Very cold, high in the low 40's and low in the upper 30's, so not my kind of weather. 

KR tried to go surfing no go, and came home and took Angel to the park at Lago Seco.  I stayed home trying to do more paperwork cleaning and photo distrubuting.  We started taking boxes of the old photos and have three containers out and each kid gets the photos of him.  Plus some of us, too and grandparents.

There were thoughsands of pics.

I had a pilates class, and that is all I did.  Roads too wet to ride but tomorrow should be good.

We read 30 days of overcoming trials, by Dan Parkins, and had questions for him already.

Will ask Lovely too.  

Merry Christmas 2025

 Well, it was a no go for KR     HAHAHAAH  no surfing either.

We were up early and Kurt had spent the night at Corrina's.  She had to leave her car here as she left her keys in Helen's car and Helen went home.  So Kurt drove up there last night.  I spent HOURS cleaning, plus making the lime pie, which I overcooked, and baked the potatoes, plus the quiches, mini ones as I had to use the 6 eggwhites for something, so I put some cheese and milk and onions with some chicken and potatoes from last nights dinner.  The potatoes were very spicy but they turned out great mixing with other stuff.

KR walked Angel and came home to help me.  Kurt didn't get home until about 11 45.

Will and Diamond were suppose to come at noon, and Brian M too but none of them showed up until 12 20.  We were so hungry and KR was getting grumpy and frustrated.  Well, we scarfed down: 2 crabs (yesterday from Doug), wagu steak (one I cooked), quiche, potatoes, left over Mediterranean food and Brian brought over a cake from Nothing Bundt cake, white chocolate and raspberry, which we had two slices and too much food.  Cream spinach from Ralphs, and we were so full.

Will and Diamond got their little presents, socks and underwear for Will, Armani lotion set and socks for Diamond and they left after helping Kurt do the dishes.  We ran the dishwasher and tried to nap.  KR had a great nap, my reflux went on high alert and I started coughing.

So I got up.

I delivered the cake to Charity.  Harmony was cooking the steak on the stove.  She is an amazing cook, met her whole family.  

My hip was really hurting me all morning, and I felt so so tired.  Sleep score was 46  Must figure out what the problem is.

I wore my MAD three nights in a row and still no bueno.
