Im washing all my bedding. I was scheduled to have my new bed delivered today, and it was.....but it was all lumpy!
Told them it was unacceptable and they removed it. At least i still have my old bed to sleep on.

Then I went to the laundromat to use their big washer s to wash my bedspread and big blue blanket from Costco.
I don't think my old Kenmore can handle them anymore, and I don't want to push it.

Now , I'm catching my breath and eating my potato salad I just made.

Feels like friday over here.

it's only just over an hour until Friday here..:D
 

Trying to recover from a set back with my rib. They say it takes up to 12 wks to heal. I'm able to lift stuff but then one false move and it gets strained and inflamed and the pain is excruciating. Right now I wish I could trade places with SilentSoul. :(
 

Well, tonight I babysat the little 'uns. At their request, we played "beauty salon" and I was the customer. I ended up looking like a cross between a cheap hooker and a circus clown and I can't even describe what my hair looked like. Let's say it looked like a unicorn had pooped a bag of Skittles on it.

I got home (hoping I didn't get stopped by the cops or they would have run me in for sure....) and had to use a lot of soap and cold cream to get down to the original layer of skin. The hair now.....I'm not sure how that's going to turn out but I'm sure the pink and blue chalk will come out eventually.

That's wonderful @jujube. Isn't that exactly the reason why us grannies were put on this planet?

I sympathize with you on the pain @MarciKS. My shoulder, neck and back pain have had me in my brace for six weeks.
 
Someone once said to me, "Try hard enough and the day will turn out well."

I've been on my hands and knees looking for a button that popped off my shirt-sleeve, and wow, not only did I find that button under the sideboard, but three other buttons, the top off a biro, a £1 coin and a piece of toast.
Everyone should have a sideboard, they act like a giant hoover. :)
 
Today I am washing sheets and towels. Yesterday I did the major part of my laundry which is hanging on the shower curtain rod right now. So I have to put those away if they are dried. Then clipping Rabbit's nails whether he likes it or not. He has scratched the area in front of his eye again and I think that is why. So even if he pees on me, I am doing it.

Had a great day, my yoga girlfriends came over and we walked down to the beach. Had our session on the beach and even attracted an audience :ROFLMAO: they asked permission to sit and watch. Afterwards, we meditated over a seafood platter and some sparkling wine :ROFLMAO:

Sounds great, let me know when you go next time and I'll come and meditate with you 🤣
 
I spent an hour this morning getting that cabinet up out of the cellar.

Of course taking out the heavy drawers made it much lighter. I opened the cellar door that is out on the back porch ( a job in itself). It's straight and wider than the stairs up to the kitchen. The kitchen stairs have a bend and I don't even think it would have fit through that door. Also that way I don't have to drag that dirty thing it through the kitchen. The years in the damp cellar has taken its toll - pieces kept falling off with every step. I walked it around to the front porch when it can air out and the drawers are out getting some fresh air and sun which they probably haven't seen in 60 years.

What are you going to do with it, Deb?
 
at the moment i have more coffee brewing. i'm waiting for my next dose of narcotic. rib is doing better today than yesterday but man oh man the coughing hurts baaaaaaaad! i think i've strained some muscles farther down from whatever happened Wed. evening. the ice helps a lot. so i'll probably be icing it on and off. i got some work tests i need to work on. thinking of having mac n cheese for dinner. maybe soup and salad for supper. i could make a toasted cheese sandwich too.

other than that...just resting.
