Aneeda, glad your daughter is on the road to recovery and I sure hope it is a speedy one. If she has your gumption, and I am sure she does, she is half way there already.

Aneeda, take care of yourself, stress is not good.

Got a good night's sleep last night, thank heavens. Have some business work to do today, plus my son and his wife are coming over for a few hours (he'll make final adjustments to the new kegerator). Will need to figure out food... it's a challenge because we eat entirely different diets. He eats mostly keto, she can't eat dairy, and hubby and I eat whole food plant based, so no meat, dairy, fats, etc.

If they'll be here at mealtime I might pull together a salad bar including some shrimp or imitation crab for them to put on their portions.

What have i done today.......wasted a whole bunch of time online shopping.
Looking for warm long winter parka, just to wear outside at home.....snow shoveling.....out with the guys.....just getting some outside time.
Also, has to be a really good sale.
Found one at Walmart.......HAPPY...HAPPY....was in the process of ordering, went to checkout........
Said.....unable to ship to my address.....WHAT ???????
Back to looking.......lots of them......too expensive.
CRAP......hate when that happens.
Still some time left in the day.......maybe get something done......or NOT.

Wasted my time inside today.......because it was raining today......thankfully.......we need rain.
 
On my early walk at 6:20 already 80 with a slight breeze
When I came back,watered the plants/flowers in our community garden
I was planning to walk 5 blocks to Canopy of Neighbor office this morning,but its just too hot to do so. I emailed Wendy{volunteer director} yesterday I would not be in,she thought that was a good idea. The air condtioner in the office doesn't work all the time
The rest of my day,stay cool with fans in my living rm/bedrm,may go read my book in the garden in the shade this afternoon
 
Ground is too soft to haul stones......going to move a few things around in the backyard.....a metal bench, and a few smaller things.
I never move my furniture around, or stuff in cupboards.....think i make up for it outside.
Took some time and enjoyed seeing mama deer with her TRIPLETS across the street......saw them end of June, they would have been only a few days old.....they have grown so much.....i've never seen triplets before.
Looking for a couple things in the house.....did such a good job sorting and organizing this past winter....there are things i can find. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Big event.....garbage pick up today.
 
Hit a couple of grocery stores yesterday, still need to go to Costco this the week to replenish some items I only purchase there. I haven't been to the Big Box in at least a month so it's time.

Not sure what's on today's agenda but after my morning swim the house could use an hour or two of attention...
 
I really need to go out and buy food, my fridge is empty.. I just threw away almost all of it's contents a few minutes ago, because they'd gone off before I had a chance to use them. I haven't seen an empty fridge in my house in years :oops:

Can't go out today.. waiting in for a delivery ( not food) ..and it's past 3pm now.. not due apparently until between 4pm and 7.30pm...but I'm not concerned.. I've got food in the freezers if I want it..


Been sorting through lots of paper work today.. actual physical files.. rather than digital.. ..and aside from updating my laptop which needed a lot doing as I haven't turned it on in months , I've really not done anything much more...


@Sliverfox , I haven't eaten proper home made jam since my granny made it when I was a really small child... 😊

I hope you found something good in the freezer! Sounds like a pretty quiet day for you.
 
Had plans to finish reorganizing the den today but about 10:30 the panel of the alarm system started beeping and it says the battery in the smoke alarm is low. So I drag out the ladder and get the smoke alarm down which causes a tamper alarm at the system panel. Now the smoke alarm is beeping which has the dog upset and anxious. I went online to see what battery I might need and, wouldn't you know, this particular smoke alarm unit does not allow battery replacement, the whole thing must be replaced. Called my alarm system's customer service number and held for an hour. Finally decided to leave a call-back number so now I am confined to the house waiting for a call that probably will not come until tomorrow. In the meantime I can't find out how to stop the confounded beeping. I did put the unit in another room, put a pillow over it and closed the door but you can still hear it somewhat. I guess I'll have to take it out to the garage tonight so I and the dog can sleep. It's kinda funny but really irritating.

I'll twist this around a bit.
Do you know what i'm not doing.
Removing spiderwebs everyday.
Since i've been here...2016...have had to remove the webs off the railing everyday.....other places in the yard....every 3 to 4 days.....a real pain....spiders are so busy.
But
Not this year....only have cleared them away, a hand full of days.
Wonder why.....too dry....maybe don't like it here anymore.....not complaining....the webs make everything look terrible.

That's what I do with mine, rip them out of the wall and throw them out in the garage! lol

They are far too sensitive, mine are anyway.
