Had my shower this morning after putting a new deep argan oil conditioner in my hair last night , and my hair which is already quite soft is like baby hair now... Need to put some body back into it now....:ROFLMAO:

Well so far this morning ( it's almost 1pm here)... I've baked the cottage pie and sliced it up into portions to freeze..I actually got 6 portions for me out of it.(y)

I've registered with a new private Dentist instead of my NHS dentist... they are so backed up from the effects of the pandemic, they can't do me a new patient exam until the end of November..

Changed the outdoor video ring doorbell battery..unlike the one on the front door the outdoor one leading to the back needs to have a tiny screw loosened first and then the cover taken off and battery changed. Despite being as careful as I could I dropped the screw, and it's about a 10th of the size of your pinkie nail..I couldn't find it despite searching even with a torch..so I got a long handled magnet from the barn..and Voila.. 👍 in a place I'd already looked several times..


Right now, I'm on hold to the outpatients dept of the hospital , where I see my consultant.. .

They sent me a letter asking me to contact them if I still need my follow up appointment.. I've been on the phone.. 43 minutes..and I'm still only at position 4.... 😖.. this is the state of the NHS at the moment , not enough staff.. not enough Doctors or nurses.. not enough admin...

...so there you are ...and it's still only lunchtime :LOL:

I am back 😊. Catching up on senior forum. Unpacking. And lots to do today. Had to return early due to a problem with getting our old car paid off. Husband did not take care of it before we left although I repeatedly asked him to.

Anyway, great trip. Daughter looks good but still in some pain. Great granddaughter was a hoot. My son with DS who said he was fine with us moving to Texas called twice a day to ask when we’d be back. 😂
 
Today I took my walk in our front yard. BUT, yesterday we went to the Municipal park and walked around the soccer fields. Along with getting our exercise and vitamin D from our Sun, we collected 2 dollars worth of aluminum cans, and two half broken lawn chairs. I just fixed the aprox. $60 chair to fit on my old chair. Feels great! :)

out of Interest, Sue... how far is 7 Blocks..? we don't measure distance like that here...
 
It is hot and humid here today and to make matters worse, I still have not escaped from Insurance Paperwork Hell regarding getting my wife's car repaired after getting rear ended by a 1938 Studebaker.

Is there no end to how long they can drag this out? Some parts of the insurance company do not even seem to be aware of other parts that have gotten into the act. This afternoon, I got a text telling me that they had the repair estimate and it then includes a link to some other section who wants me to tell them the name and address of the shop who provided the estimate. Well, duh. And then the link doesn't work anyway.

Do you suppose that they are trying to drive me crazy?
 
So far today I have vacuumed the bedroom area, cleaned my bunny's cage, took the garbage out, washed the filter for this vacuum cleaner (did the hand held one the other day), got my mail and now grabbing a bite to eat. Keeping my feet elevated the rest of the day.

It is 83 degrees presently and it supposed to go up to 87. It felt horrible as soon as I went out the door. It was hotter yesterday but feels the same to me.
 
Did grocery shopping and decided to precook and freeze everything. Husband was supposed to do this, but he decided to be difficult so I did it. 🤦🏻‍♀️ No big deal. Beef has really gone up in price. Was going to get some steaks, mostly for him as I can only eat little pieces.

The rib eye package, normally 35 dollars was 70 dollars, at Costco. WOW just WOW. Noticed at Harmons and Smiths beef was expensive so bought pork and frozen fully cooked chicken. I don’t eat a lot of meat anyway.

Then after cooking stuff, I did dishes. Told husband I could care less if he stayed in his room the rest of his life. It would just be less aggravation for me. But since he didn’t want to do anything, the day trip we planned for Friday was off so he could continue to do nothing.

This did not make him happy. 😮. Too bad.

Now to vacuum.
 
Visited an old friend today, and I was amazed at how he and his son had made replicas of the monsters below, for his great-grandsons. The workmanship is superb and the kids can get inside them. They are going to put controls in them next, so that will be intesting, I might ask them to make me one, a red one of course. :)

And, I've heard this music all day!! :)

 
Woke up at 4:14am and tossed and turned for an hour and then got up. Hubby had to be at the Ortho doc's office by 7:30am and we live 20 miles from town so headed out early. He had to get an injection in his left knee and then he had to get his Covid test for his surgery tomorrow on his right knee. Stopped and filled up the truck on the way home. Looked at homes for sale in PA where we want to relocate and then had lunch. Hubby is taking a little snooze and after I'm done on here, I'll be doing some cross stitching and watching Columbo re-runs on TUBI :)

I have some pics of my o/h with the Daleks, K9 and also the Cybermen, when they were filming outside of St Pauls Cathedral some years ago...:love:
 
Took advantage of the nice day with sun most up of the day.
Cleared away twigs and more twigs off the driveway and lawn.....i hate that tree...a dirty thing....first seeds....then sap....and those twigs....got two 5 gallon pails of twigs......CRAP.

Did something today that i haven't ever done since i moved here.
Mowed the front and back yard today, don't ever do both the same day.
Definitely tired.
 
I was thinking of heading to the thrift store today which is having a half off sale on everything.

our park is having a park wide yard sale tomorrow and I want to participate but don't have much stuff of my own to sell cause I donated it to the thrift store.

Maybe I can buy some of it back and put it up for sale.

Or maybe I will just wander the park tomorrow and buy some stuff from other people to put out next year.....a win win situation.
