A homey sublime Sunday


In the last few days, laziness had been winning some battles. And I have not been walking as much as I should. It has been hard to cheer me up after saying goodbye, for who knows how much time, to my son last Sunday. But I woke up thinking that today's battle against laziness is mine.

I convinced my husband that we should go for a walk to Vizcaya Park, which is nearby to our home.

We went there, and I took a book to leave in the small ecological wooden mini library that is in the park, of which I have already spoken in one of my Wednesday Walks.

I don't usually make many new year's resolutions. Since most of them end up in a broken sack, but I have decided this year to get rid of some books and give others a chance to read them. So I intend every time I go to the park to take a book and leave it in the mini-library.

We walked through the park, and the husband took this picture of me.

We were walking for almost an hour, the longest walk I have done since my heart attack last November, and although I have not been able to walk at the pace I used to without getting short of breath, today felt good, at a slower pace, but good.

As we were ready to leave the park, my phone rang with my son's morning phone call. So we sat on a bench as we chatted and looked at the people enjoying the park.

As we left the park, we stopped by the supermarket to buy some brioche bread for hamburgers.

And when we got home, hubby did his magic. And voila, super burgers for lunch.

Today I couldn't resist being a little naughty and adding mayo and pickles. Both of these are on the list of foods I need to restrict from my diet. Mayonnaise, vegetable oils, and green foods are rich in vitamin K and therefore help in blood clotting, and I should avoid them as much as possible while on anticoagulants. However, my blood test a couple of days ago finally came back with the value the doctor wants me to have in the next few months, so I could indulge in a little treat. The burger was so yummy.

Then we had a family nap. Grogu took it with us, or we took it with him 😹 He always spends his afternoons sleeping. Then we had a Netflix session that I only interrupted to write this post about my homey sublime Sunday.

Have a happy week, dear Hivers and Silverators!

Thank you for reading.

Thank you, Jackie!🥰
It is a time of change but we must grow with it and evolve, right?
I was happy to be able to treat myself. In the last few days, I was a little stressed that the clotting time value had not gone up enough, but now I'm more relaxed.
How is your move going? I will stop by your blog in a while to know how the adventure is going.
Have a great evening 🤗

You are welcome @coquicoin 👋🏻😊 yes, we need to adjust and will grow through it.
So good to hear, I can imagine you do worry about the stats, luckily all good. So less worries. You can relax a bit more now. Let’s hope all keeps improving my friend 😁🍀

We are going further north… I’m now higher than part 2 and will post tomorrow an update.
It is going well and we are having lots of fun. Exploring and going on adventures. I saw today highland cows and seals 🦭 in the wild on the beach 🥰 so beautiful.
Have a wonderful day further. Thanks a lot 🤗🤗🌹

It has been hard to cheer me up after saying goodbye, for who knows how much time, to my son last Sunday.

Saying goodbye is really hard, remember the time I accompany my husband at the airport as he is leaving to work abroad. I was crying for I think an hour at the departure area and even at the bus while on my way home!! If only we could let them stay by our side, but we need to let them for some reasons... Just a little bit of sacrifices.

Oh, my first time seeing you! Love your hair..

Ah, it's really hard to resist food, though don't be too naughty 😉.

Happy Monday!

Thank you, Lhes 😊 I won't be too naughty ;) I'm taking care of myself.

It is hard to say goodbye. I think I could fill a swimming pool with all the tears I have cried these days. But I know it's a great opportunity for him, and his future. And it fills me with pride to see what he has achieved, so I feel happy to see him spread his wings. It's a big contradiction, but that's life.

Have a lovely week 🤗

I've been battling with my laziness too on the past few days but it's hard to fight with it specially if my mind and body is shouting for one thing, and that is to be lazy and do what I want to do, lol. It's hard to beat it if I don't really have the urge to beat it, lol.

Anyways, indulging yourself sometimes is not that bad but I am sure you know your limit. So, just a reminder, be well always 💪.

Laziness is usually a strong opponent, but we have to draw strength to overcome it, hehe.

Thank you and have a lovely week 😊🤗

I have generally led a healthy life, and maybe I have some habits to improve, but believe me, now I take it even more seriously. After the scare I went through, I don't want to go through it again.
Happy week!

Oh, I feel for you, not being able to get going, especially after your son's departure, and, as you say, not knowing when he'll next visit. I so get the conflict - I gather he is doing well in Chicago?

I am delighted to hear that your blood levels have stabilised to an acceptable level. At least that is one less worry, giving you the opportunity to begin resuming normal programming.

Grogu is beautiful!

Have a good week, Eli!

Fortunately, he is doing very well in Chicago, and he is happy. And that of course makes me happy too, but at the same time, it is very hard to have him far away without the possibility to visit him from time to time. But anyway, living one day at a time.

I hope things are quiet over there and have a good week, Fiona 🤗😺

It must have been a real challenge for you but knowing your son is going after his dreams, you just could not say no hehe. Glad you had that walk. It's a beautiful day it seems with the sunshine and all. Then having your test turn better that you can indulge yourself with that delicious-looking burger... A sublime day indeed.

Grogu is so cute and I !LUV your hair sis!

That's right, sis! For him, it is a huge opportunity that opens many doors in his future and that makes me happy and proud. But having him so far away without the possibility of seeing him so often is hard.
These days are usually sunny and even if they are cloudy at this time of the year it doesn't use to rain much.
Have a lovely week!

It must be a lot to take in especially that you love to spend a lot of time together from since he was young and suddenly, he's off to another place. I wish you well sis as you make certain adjustments :)

Thank you and have an amazing Tuesday morning when you wake❤️

And I am so glad you are walking.

Haha! you're crazy, Super Ed!!! I almost choked on my coffee with that gif 🤣🤣.

I know what an immense opportunity Rodrigo has in front of him, and I am so happy about it. But it's hard not to miss him, and despite the wonders of technology, I can't help but want to hug him. But I'm fine and I will be, I promise Super Ed ;)

Thank you for the compliments on my hair, and for that gif that has made me giggle 😂

Your nephew is cute but super naughty, I have to update you one of these days about his new adventures 😹

Have a Super Week! And thank you for being you and making me smile 😄🌀💙
