Mom (and Dad) fixed the chair and she ate her vegetables!

This post is coming about 12 hours past the due time because I didn't do my main goal until this morning. But now, thanks to a lot of help from Dad, it's done. The chair is finally repaired!



In its useless shape.

A snippet of cheese cloth on the peg ends, some Elmer's wood glue, and a nice pipe clamp.
Now it just needs some time to set.

Ta-da! Fully functioning....almost.
(The glue needs 24 hours to cure before it can be sat on.)

 

Now, I set an ongoing goal--maybe for two more blog cycles--to eat eight different vegetables in the week. That may not seem like a lot to you, but it's better than I've been doing. I must now improve on spreading the vegetables around the week. Here's what our table looked like last night as I sought to make my goal.

From the top: glazed carrots (left over from Sunday), broccoli salad (left over from Sunday), corn cut from the cob (left over from Sunday), tomatoes, fresh carrots (since the other carrot dish was cooked and these are raw, I counted both), tomatoes, and celery. I didn't count the broccoli again as they were both raw. It's a picture of procrastination.

Now for this coming week....hmmm. I can't get carried away because we're leaving town on Saturday for our family camp. Okay, here we go....

 

The new goal is:

Clean our bedroom

 

And the ongoing goal, slightly modified, is: 

Eat 8 full servings of vegetables over at least 4 days.
