Did You Accomplish Anything Today?

I have slippers but the floor is cement right under the carpet and it gets so cold that even with heavy slippers the cold comes through some. I'll be okay. I think this rearranging the furniture and my foot warmer will help this winter.

we have a cement floor in the downstairs.. and we had to have very thick underlay, and thick carpeting before you couldn't feel the cold seeping up

So it's less cold now? I just have a thinner carpeting.

Oh yes , but we've been in this house decades, so we have a good heating system, and expensive quality carpet.. but it's important if you can't afford a thick carpet, to at least get the very best quality underlay that you can, that will help a lot.. ( it's something I had to do many years ago when I was raising my DD alone, and money was short and we could only afford a felt back carpet)

Today, I've done nothing but a little cooking and a little washing up. Zilch, Nada, nothing, .. only sat on my Bee Hind ...and even fell asleep sitting on the sofa mid-day.. . I switched all my phones, off, and guess what someone rang the landline.. the one phone rarely anyone rings :LOL:

I took a nap this afternoon, too, felt better after that. Why do they always call when we are busy napping? :D

I bet the underlay here is as thin as paper. I have even put a folded blanket down and on top of that a somewhat thick rug where I put my feet and it still gets so very cold.
 
Does dropping your house phone on the floor and not being able to find it count as accomplishing something. I heard it hit the floor and searched for an hour and haven't been able to find it. My Husband tried calling me from his cell phone and nothing rang. I can't imagine why I can't find it. I was sitting on my chair when I dropped it. I think it's time to have me committed to the Nut-house.
 
On my way to my heart doc I got a call from another doc to go get my annual thyroid ultrasound 🤦🏻‍♀️, so I made that appointment for this evening at 5:45 to get it over with. Heart doc PA and I discussed the issues, at first he want me to have a small surgery called watchman. Then he changed his mind after I said I’d add it to my list 😂.

Got gift cards at Lowe’s for everyone for Christmas. After saving for over 6 months, I can finally pay my daughter back the surprise 500 dollars she left for me when she visited. Very happy about that. Then went to Costco and bought what we needed and a few things we wanted 😂.

Then went to the best Jewish sandwich place, maybe the only one in town, and got a pastrami sandwich to share. The pastrami is the best I’ve ever eaten. The sandwich is 15 dollars so we get one and share. Comes with a ton of French fries which he eats.

Now we are home, he is bringing in groceries and I have assumed my supervision position. 🤣

Yikes, you've missed your appointment... it's already 9.30pm.... :eek::sneaky:

..and why do you need to pay back a gift ?...won't your daughter feel insulted ? :unsure:

No. She knows I want her to have it back and she keeps saying don’t send it back, but she can use the money for the baby 🤓and I will notate that on the check so she won’t feel bad. Kinda of a regift situation. 🤣 which happens all the time.

My mother sends me 20 dollars for my birthday, then I send her 40 dollars for hers. 😂
 
Well today not a great deal done.. it's been raining all day so stayed home. We got all the Christmas waterfall lights up on the windows.. and later in the afternoon we go a new set of shelves/cupboards installed in the downstairs hallway , larger than the drawers which were there already of which we kept all the outdoor stuff like gloves & Hats, keys , Umbrellas etc.. now there's more space for them, and it all looks nice and fresh and bright..


Tomorrow morning we'll go to the recycle centre.. before we pick up DD, and our friends and go for lunch. Everyone wants to see DD's new Hyundai RV4 ...she has heated windscreen wipers... :eek:
