10 Things About My Abode.

A list of 10 things around my home. That’s what this Monday Listicle calls for.

Oh dear.

10. A Healthy Snack.

This was just consumed by me.

Because I am peri-menopause looney about how weight seems to be layering on my bod at an alarming rate.

Through voracious reading on subject, I’ve learned if there is any chance at prying a pound or two from its death grip on my mid-section, I need to stay away from insulin inducing snacks.

Like this.

9. Insulin-inducing snack that followed me home from Chicago.

Good grief. Have you had this stuff? Cheese popcorn and caramel corn in one bag.

I may have consumed a few handfuls after this photo. (I have very small hands to be such a tall person.)

8. Vitamins.

Notice how they are still waiting on the table. I can barely ingest these things now. But better choke them down to counterbalance insulin-inducing snack.

7. My Bike/dress shirt-cane holder.

Glad to see I’m taking advantage of all this great early fall riding weather.

6. A few of my coffee cups.

5. My Chalkboard.

Yes, no fancy dry eraser for me. Our schedule looks light today.

Bliss.

Makes me wonder what I’m forgetting.

4. My Adopt-A-Pantry basket.

I moved the basket up to the kids art table out of the doorway — it’s filling up. 🙂

Poor Oreo. This photo makes him look rather huge.

3. A Necklace holder.

In all of our recent IKEA mania, I ended up with this piece and have no idea what it is for. A clever friend came up with this.

See, it pays to surround yourself with people who are far more clever than you.

They can help figure what to do with all the cr@p you accumulate and make it useful and very uncr@p like.

2. A ladder.

Brought down to help out with our recent painting escapade, I’ve yet to take it back to the attic because I need to change a light bulb in my child’s room.

I love to stand on tiptoe on ladders while changing light bulbs.

That ladder may stay out for a bit.

1. My dishwasher.
