How are you today?

I have been up since 6am - it's such a lovely morning. It's been a busy week so, I am taking a day off today but, can't decide what to do! I might go out later but, on the other hand, I am also tempted to stay home, hem up a couple of summer dresses and go through some photos I look when we went out the other evening. Decisions! Decisions!

Have a good Saturday everyone. :)
 
Good morning, Invisipeeps. It's gonna be another stellar day here. I love it, but...the pollen. OMG! the pollen and no rain in sight for at least a week.

See if you can guess where we're going this morning. Yup. A couple of short errands and...the garden center. Just when I think I've got all the blue star creeper that's needed, it isn't.
 
It's pretty cold here. I'm trying to do things around here but when I walk I have terrible pain. So I am getting a few things done at least.

I honestly don't know what to do with this strange neighbor of mine . First he makes odd noises and very loud . He shares a wall with me (bedroom) and he's getting worse.

In the middle of the night he bangs thing very loud. He's been doing this for a few weeks now.I am sleep deprived because of him. I was so tired yesterday I felt sick 🤢 I am going to have to do something.

He is creepy and scary. I have never seen him. I think my other neighbor thinks I am making all the noise because they can't tell that the noise he makes comes from his bedroom. I want to call the police but scared of retaliation.

I don't want to report it to management because I would be afraid of retaliation with that too.

I didn't ask for any of this nonsense..., I'm just tired of this. Yes I will move if they contact me. Can't wait!
 
Has your DIL changed her mind about moving to Idaho?
I just looked up the drive time from me to where is he now and where she wants to live 1 hour further more - Idaho 32 hrs to here.
They live in southern California and both been there for over 40 years, where she wants to move is 40 miles from Canadian border.
Talk about a climate shock this late in life.
 
Doing ok today. Sore but ok. I retired one of my gaming consoles this morning. I've outgrown it and it's time to move on. I need to take my Nintendo Switch and my Nintendo Wii down to the used gaming shop. One of the Wii's I got from there and it's still working fine. They could resell it.

It's supposed to get to 95 today and it's my weekend to work. Getting some things figured out at work in the cafeteria the hard way as to whether or not they're gluten free. It feels weird using the A/C during the day and yet it is still chilly enough for the heat at night.

I got a little sleep. Not a lot. Might just have soup for supper after work tonight. Plus the rest of my chicken salad on gf chips.

Ah... but they're also coming to look at houses near you?

This sounds like an awful situation @Ruthanne, I hope you get the opportunity to move very soon.

Do you have another room where you could sleep? If not a spare bedroom than perhaps the sitting room? It's not ideal but, it might get you away from the noise and disturbances and give you a chance to rest.
 
How are you doing today @MarciKS?

It's going to be another nice day and not as hot as yesterday. Yay for that. I didn't do much after about noon because I couldn't handle the sun beating on me.

Back to the garden center for more mulch. We should have bought stock!
Still hurting but not as bad at the moment. I was reading that the body aches from gluten detox can last 6-8 wks. ☹️
 
Feeling dramatically better today thanks to sleeping long and soundly last night. I sure needed it after three nights of poor, short sleep periods. Two places where my body stress reveals itself (digestive system and blood pressure) were in unhappy straits yesterday. Am beyond relieved to feel like myself again.

I'll manage some business chores today in anticipation of our busy season. Time to to do the groundwork so I can slot in the numbers when our customers' info arrives later this week.

The instant pot accessories for converting it to an air fryer remain untouched on a kitchen counter, awaiting my attempt to learn how to operate them. Since my brain is well-rested, perhaps I'll take a stab at that today. Or tomorrow. Stay tuned.
 
Dear me, or as DH used to say, Shitohdear. It's not getting older that I mind. It's the physical limitations of being old(er). I just spent 45 minutes spreading more mulch, and it has beat me down. >le sigh<

One more thing: the pollen count here today is more than 6500. You read that right. 6500+. Please pass the tissues.
