Did You Accomplish Anything Today?

I walked, vacuumed, had a long non productive conversation with my husband 🤦🏻‍♀️. He is up to 355 pounds that he will admit to. I think he’s 360. I said he does nothing but eat. He said he hardly eats anything. Yup, that conversation went no where fast. 🙄
 

I spent a couple of hours going through the hundreds of photos I have because I was looking for one particular picture a cousin wants me to send her. Couldn't find the photo but wound up further organizing what I went through. I walked over to the post office to pick up my medications and eye drops. Also spent a little time updating my budget and doing a couple of chores.
 
Did pretty much nothing today of any note... can't go out, nothing is open except grocery stores.. the weather isn't good enough to go and take winter photos... the pubs and restaurants are closed until goodness knows when.., and so there's nothing much to do .
Put the world to rights politically with o/h,... ... but other than that the day just went by nice and quietly, I like that....
 
I accomplished or I should say accomplished not getting enough sleep. I've cut down on my sleep med. and so it's taking me forever to fall asleep and then when I do it's only for 30 minutes to an hour. It will catch up with me, I know. I'll get a good nights sleep--just don't know when.:rolleyes:😄

It's not a whole lot different here. That's why I started the Dancefest thread--to try to entertain some and have a bit of fun. It's pretty cold here, too. I wanted to go for a drive but after getting a delivery it's too late--if I go anywhere there will be no spaces left in the parking lot and no spaces to park on the street. What a PITA this parking here is. I'm still waiting to get a garage space. Who knows when that will happen. :rolleyes:🙃:unsure::geek:🐸🦊🐭🐧

Well, just my opinion, but I think everything went to lock down so a certain person could get some needed rest. How is the healing going? Still in a lot of pain?

yes same here... there's nothing open at all where people would normally be visiting. Theatres, Art galleries, ice rinks, gyms, pubs, restaurants, no-one can be away on holiday... etc.... and thousands of people either laid off from their jobs or on furlough and so everyone is home basically, and so are their vehicles, some houses have up to 5 cars, and are parked on the road, and it's a particular problem where my daughter is renting at the moment, because she finds , as you do..if she goes out, there's no space for her to park when she returns..

I fear if I go out and can't find a parking space I'd have to park a mile away on a residential street. Too cold to walk back home. Oh well, I may go to the store earlier tomorrow when it's 45 F. Some people here still have jobs outside the home and go to work and a few spaces open up..but you have to be quick and get to the store fast and get back fast before someone grabs a spot. 🙃 :rolleyes:

Things have got to get better for all countries! I hope that happens in 2021.

My daughter has just bought a brand new car .. this years Toyota Rav4 Hybrid, and because everyone jams up the side of her and behind her trying to get a parking space she's terrified it's going to get scratched, she's only had it 2 weeks and it cost ££££'s... . She's only been back in the uk and in that rental property for 3 weeks, and she was thinking of staying long enough there until she finds her ideal home to buy, which could take anything up to a year in this current covid climate but this parking situation is getting on her nerves, so she's looking for somewhere else with it's own private parking.

Difficulty is, that it's really hard to find a landlord with a decent property who is willing to rent out to someone with 3 dogs, so she's caught between a rock and the proverbial hard place...

Yeah, that's hard when you have pets and rent. I guess it must be like here-many landlords will not allow pets. I can thoroughly understand covid and all getting on her nerves...it does that to me, too. I had to find a way to relax I was getting so anxious with the news broadcasts being so anxiety provoking, too. I meditated yesterday and got the heating pad out and put it on my back which was so tense from all the stress of the covid problem. It helped some.

If I had a nice car like that I know I'd be worried about it. Mine's a beater and I worry even about that. With people being careless towards others' cars it makes it worrisome.
 
Oh the pandemic isn't getting on her nerves. It was much worse in Spain, very stressful, people aren't allowed to leave their own street without a valid reason and permission from the police etc.. and then only then can they go to the doctor, or the nearest grocery store, even if that's only a shop selling milk and bread, in Spain you can't go to a large supermarket if it's further than the end of your road..... The police stop everyone and hand out big fines...so here even tho' everything is closed there's no police stopping people, no permissions needed to go anywhere, and so she';s not stressed about that..it's just the fact that she's having difficulty parking anywhere near the house she's rented. It has no drive so she has to park in an allocated parking space on the road , but no-one takes any notice, and they park anywhere..

I had a fall OED...at the beginning of November I tore my Rhomboid muscle...in my upper back , and hairline fractured my sternum.

However I hit my head really painfully, actually fell onto my head from a height , and I've been getting horrible dizzy spells since as well as still in some pain .. and aside from 2 weeks at the start of December we've been in lockdown since the beginning of November so I've had so I've had to wait for an appointment for a CT scan at the hospital.. ( although I've had 2 zoom appt with a doctor) and that appointment is next Monday... finally..
 
We had our 6 month checkup at our medical center yesterday. We make our appointments together as it quite a drive and it saves time. Both passed blood test with flying colors. My potassium is a bit low, so I need to supplement that for awhile. My Afib hasn’t changed much and he said everything sounds good. My wife, who has no thyroid, her meds are doing the job.
Then we stopped for coffee, came home and opened 5 packages from Amazon. Just like Christmas all over again.
 
Washed my walking clothes, long Johns, thermal top, hat, gloves, socks as it is 20 degrees outside. I lost track of time so went to get them out of the dryer and take my morning walk. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Forgot to put them in the dryer. So, waiting for my clothes to dry. 😂
