Went to Smiths grocery to get my flu shot. Filled out the paperwork. Pharmacy assistant comes over, pointed to my paperwork and said “it says your allergic to eggs. You can not get a flu shot if you are allergic to eggs.”

It says, I replied, that I am allergic to eggPLANT. “Oh,” she says, “I didn’t see the plant part.” Hmm, well, I replied “it’s right next to the egg part since it’s one word”. 🙄😳

”So, she says, “you’ve had a flu shot before?” OMG. Yes, cause I’m allergic to eggplant, not eggs. I wish they would a cure for stupid, I really do.

Anyway, got my flu shot. 😂

And speaking of stupid, my oldest son got his Covid shot, his flu shot, and his shingles shot all in the same day at the same time. He says he doesn’t feel too good today. Yup, no cure for stupid. 😂😂😂
 

Forgot to mention the weather, ugh. 32 degrees, snowed ALL day except when there was freezing rain, and a bit of hail. So glad I ordered the treadmill. Had to walk in the street as the sidewalks were too slippery. 😢. Really hate the snow.

Plus it was extremely windy as well and I couldn’t find my gloves so I had to wear thick socks for gloves. Life is so hard. 🥺. Whine, whine, whine.
 
Both yesterday and today I went downtown to the museums in Washington DC. So far all three times I've gone it has been to the same museum, I thought I'd be finished in two visits but it is surprisingly vast, and I'll still need one more visit to it to finish. I was going to only go on the weekends when the trip down is just one dollar, but now I might have to add more trips during the week or I won't have time to go to all of the museums. I only have 6 more weekends to be here.

I got too confident on the Metro yesterday, I settled in to read a book and didn't listen to the announcements or track the stops we were at. After a while I wondered why the train was back out in the sun instead of underground - turned out there was maintenance on the line and everyone was supposed to get out to take a shuttle bus to resume the ride. I was almost back at my starting point by the time I realized the train had changed directions. :oops:
 
Let's see, got out of bed about 2, still felt bad, went back to bed until 6. Fed the dogs dinner, ate something myself. Just got out of the shower, Washed a few dishes. I hope tomorrow will be a better day. @dseag2 did you get a Flethcers corn dog at the fair? That is the only reason I want to go anymore. Just can't walk that long anymore. Used to be so much fun!!

My long walk of the day to/from Walgreens this morning,have a 10am appt to get both flu&booster shot.Afterwards, walk a block to my church,doing a volunteer activity.. I was volunteering there 2 mornings/wk in the business office until Covid stopped that.
The rest of my day hope to take another walk since its going to be another sunny unseasonable warm day here.Yesterday the high was 75,read NYT,my book
 
Good morning....I'm not really awake yet, but that first cup of ☕ is on the way.

We'll be heading into town today for my annual wellness check up. This should be interesting. I can't wait to see how messed up my bloodwork numbers are!!

Have a great day!

We had torrential rain all yesterday , with Electric storms, which meant we lost power for a while.. there was even a Mini Tornado reported.. so this morning, it meant clearing up all the mess in the garden, even tho' everything i well and truly sodden..

Sun is out now, it's 62 degrees, but I need it to dry up a little before I can rake up the leaves..

Irritated by Royal Mail this morning.. because I missed a delivery on Friday morning of 2 items.. and so I was able to redirect them to be delivered today. When the postie came he only had one Parcel and denied all knowledge of a second, so I presumed he would bring it tomorrow..

I just checked online and the sender stated that Royal Mail tried delivering it this morning ( Not true).. and have now left it at a Post office miles from here ... :mad:..if I'd wanted to go out to get it, I wouldn't have bought it online..!!

Strikes for these workers will also take place on December 1.

Inidentally have you got any postage stamps at home ?.. did you know that they have to be used by January or they're worthless.. ?.. However you can send them off and have them barcoded, and then they become usable again.. ..What a Faff.. I didn't know until yesterday when DD told me

Oh, God, snow. I'm not looking forward to it. It's great if you're five years old, all you have to do is play in it and when you come in your mom makes you hot chocolate. It's not much fun when you have to clear it from your property, especially if it's a wet heavy snow. Ugh. And you have to make your own hot chocolate, if you have the energy. 🥴

Go ahead and whine, Aneeda. I'm sure I'll be joining you soon. Instead of hot chocolate we can wine together ...
🍷🍷🍷🍷:LOL:

Utah.

We usually get a dusting around the 31st so this actual snowing is unusual. Plus it got down to 22 degrees last night with the wind chill. Had to turn the heat on and I am still freezing. Supposed to be 30 all day, but it will be colder because of the wind.

Found my gloves and going to try and get to Costco today and buy hand warmers if they have them. I need to do my walking and its so cold 🥶. I’ll have to walk in the street again since the sidewalks are frozen and slippery. The asphalt has a better grip even though it’s icy as well.

Had to put Bella’s coat on her so she could run out on the,patio, potty, and run back in. This level of cold and snow this early, ugh. Really hope Amazon is not late with the treadmill.
 
Today…..inside time……raining today…..but need to venture out to the shed and bring out those things I hate with a passion……SNOW SHOVELS.
There’s still some nice temps forecasted, but just in case Mother Nature gets in a mood…..and if the miserable Colorado low comes uninvited.

A rep from a moving company that I contacted is coming this morning, to go over things, and give me a estimate, it’s hard to do over the phone, or email. At no charge.

Will try and get back to going through my fabric inventory.
Picked up my sewing machine and serger from their 500,000 mile check and service.
Would you believe, this is the first time I had the light bulb in that sewing machine changed in around 28 years.
So…..good to go for another 500,000 miles.
My 2nd sewing machine doesn’t need serviced yet.
