planning for a good year in 2025

Hello everyone 

My husband has been dealing with several physical issues, the hardest for his day to day to life has been back pain.  He has tried many things to get relief ——-doctors, spine injections and ablations, prescription and OTC pain relievers, pain patches, physical therapy, TENS machine, etc, etc, etc.  

His pain has pretty much kept him at home in his recliner that has heat and massage.  

Right before Christmas,  I saw a Tv commercial for a pain reliever called Magnalife.  I had no expectation it would work but I looked it up and saw it had pretty good reviews.  

I showed my husband this photo and he said the box showed exactly where his pain issues were.  Magnalife is sold almost everywhere for around $15.  So I ordered a bottle and Walmart delivered it that day.  

This stuff truly helps his back pain more than anything else he has tried.  

this is not a sponsored post. 

I’m just passing on how much this product has helped my husband.  

It a homeopathic product and the active ingredient is capsicum which I believe is peppers.  It says it is safe to use with prescriptions. 

Now, With my husband feeling so much better,  we are hopeful we may feel up to traveling again, gardening,  going to more grandchildren events- or whatever comes up.  

I’m a homebody at heart and I’m not wanting to be on the go all the time but if something comes up that we would like to do,  I don’t think my husband’s pain issues will stop us.  

a few things around home 

I have a new planner that I ordered from someone on Instagram 

I’m planning to memorize more Bible verses in 2025 and that’s my first one on the index card

I started an embroidery project on a denim shirt from my closet.  I have so many craft supplies- every year I seem to think this will be the year I make a big dent in them.  It willtake more than one tiny embroidery project but this a start.  

I rarely shop in stores ( still happily getting most all our groceries from Kroger delivery or Walmart pickup or shipping) 

But I wanted to get some discounted wrapping paper and gift bags so I went to Hobby Lobby when it was 70% Christmas off and then to Walmart where it was 75% off  Christmas.  

I did find roll wrap and gift bags,  some little things to mail to granddaughter Cora every so often,  silk flowers to put on graves, 2 red check kitchen towels (I would of bought more as I like checks year round but there were only 2)  And tea bags and peanut butter because we needed them.  

I’m glad I got my bargains  but I do not like shopping in person anymore.  

My daughter went to Hobby Lobby today when  Christmas things were 90% off 

She bought some things for their home and  a bunch of children’s craft kits 90% off.  

I put them all in a basket and they can stay in my craft room until we need them.  It’s a lot and I expect we will share them at church or with friends.  

Have y’all  done after Christmas bargain shopping?  I hope you found what you were looking for if you did.  

well. those next 3 photos didn’t load to Blogger like I wanted them too but I’m still cooking at home - not exciting but our meals usually taste really good to us.  

we still like sandwich boxes and baked carrots 

 

this is produce straight from Kroger delivery after I washed it and got it ready for the fridge.  

   

it works for me cook or more 2 entrees at the same time.  Then the main cooking is done for several days 

This was cabbage and white bean soup and sloppy joe filling.  



Friends,  I would like to blog regularly and hopefully I will in 2025.  

We will see!
