September 2019.... Please Share your Day...

Finally got a real good sleep over the night and slept about 10 hours!

Making plans on how I'm going to sort out my car since it's being sold to the junk dealer. It's sitting at the repair shop down the street. Have to get some of my stuff out of it and seriously going to leave what I don't want and that's most junk in it.

Actually shaved my legs today! I don't have to do it often but it feels good to have smooth legs again.:D Glad that's over with. And the new razor worked real good after it cut me a bit...lol

I plan on relaxing today...

I've been moving furniture around this morning... but last night when I was getting rid of some files and clearing out some cotton lined whicker baskets which are not very old maybe just 5 years if that......near the bottom of one, was a folded broadsheet newspaper... . I wondered why I would have put a newspaper in the basket, , and also odd that there was even one in there because I rarely buy newspapers in the UK, much less keep one, so my curiosity was sparked.. and I never expected what I saw..


This.....:oops: In almost perfect condition, except for some yellowing where it had been folded...... 119 years old !!!!

Neither hubs or I have the first idea how it got there... . :unsure:






 
Light rain here, dreary morning.

I was up early and went to the laundrette. The laundry is put away and the bed linens are fresh, waiting for my nap. I've become a fan of these, new to me, Tide laundry pods so much easier than lugging the various bottles of detergent, bleach, fabric softener, dry sheets, etc...

I've been puttering around the kitchen cleaning out the old spices, odd items that have accumulated in the pantry, tattered dish towels and all of the miracle cleaning products from under the kitchen sink.

It's hard for me to believe that I've been in my little apartment for nine years and some of these things have been on the shelf for at least that long. I need to do another purge of my pots, pans, dishes, etc... I'm at the point where I do almost no cooking/baking from scratch, I haven't turned the oven on since Easter!

My world seems to keep getting smaller and smaller but it also seems to keep getting easier and easier so I'm good with it.

Have a great day!

Thanks, Holly!

Suddenly I feel better about my housekeeping habits, I've never found a newspaper more than 5 or 6 years old in my little apartment! ;)

:LOL: :LOL: ...my house is pretty spotless...lol.. and I've only lived here for 40 years. If I'd have found it in my loft it would have made more sense but it was actually in my own relatively new whicker basket where I just keep my own personal diaries.... It's very weird!!
 
Had another pretty good nights sleep. Only thing my muscles are acting up again. Thinking of taking Ibuprofen but have to go easy on it as it's not good for my health in larger quantities they say. Thinking of trying some of the Youtube stretching exercises. Tried them once before and they were easy enough. That may be good for the ole muscles.

Tomorrow I am expecting a call from the junk car dispatch and then this morning got another lower offer for my car from the mechanic at the repair shop. I think if the junk car place doesn't say they'll pick it up tomorrow I will take the lesser offer. To me the car isn't worth much being so old, in need of many repairs and an engine. o_O

Took Suzy for a walk and it looks like another nice day out there today. I'm glad the temperatures have been lower but tomorrow is going to be mid 80s. Again I am so grateful I have AC. For many years I never had it.

I hope you all who read this have a very nice day!

I'm making faux fur balls to attach to lavender hats that I crocheted for my granddaughters. I've seen the fur balls on tv, and I think they are popular. (I am accused of being not caught up with everyone else. I think they will be pretty. Now my grandson....well, I don't think he wants a lavender hat with a fur ball. I"m thinking a black hat with a Hawkeye emblem on the front. I might have to order the emblem from Amazon.
 
Been busy packing up the camper, will head out in the morning for a couple of weeks of camping in the higher elevations of Co., so it should be much cooler than in town, been in the high 90s and waaaay to hot for me! Hope everyone is having a nice September, see you when I get back. 💚
 
Good Morning Ladies...and Gents...
Well here it is, Breakfast day... Going to try a new resturaunt today... Our old one is having problems, and trying to force out the best waitress they have because she is above the table, and they are trying to push their waitress's under the table. Our waitress refuses because she likes where her deductions are going...

Not a lot new around here, starting to prepare the property for winter... Not a big fan of winter, yeah it looks pretty and all, but very cold, and very damp and my body doesn't like it, end up popping more drugs then I like... I have lots to do around the house this winter, like finish the kitchen where I knocked that wall down.

Well had problems with our keurig coffee machine which I will post it on its own... How to fix it, I thought life was ending after I cleaned it all, and then it wouldn't work...

Well Kids, I hope YOU all have a wonderful day... and God Bless YOU all...
Mike
