I'm going to lock all the doors, close all the curtains and then count all my money. 😊

Now then, nosey, hop it, I don't want you looking over my shoulder while I'm handling all my loot..........76, 78, 79, 91, 93, 95....... oh where is that 5p, then I'll be able to round it all up nicely to a £? 😊
 

Off to work with me. By the time I get home, the garden is in full sun so can't water until later this afternoon.

Supervisor will be on vacation after Sunday and said we aren't going to get a manager to fill in. When I asked who'll be in charge, he looked at me and smiled (and evil smile!). Me? He has to be kidding! I don't know enough to be in charge of anything except baking and more baking. I really hope he was kidding, but it's not looking good... Everybody face the East for a moment of silent prayer!!🙏
 

For the first time in the almost 51 years that I've lived here, I went down to the laundry room two mornings in a row (yesterday and the day before). I've been a busy bee this week so today I intend to take it a bit slower. I'll put away the rest of the clothes, straighten up the
living-dining area, make a couple of calls and watch some stuff on my watchlists. Of course I'll play Words With Friends which I do daily and a couple of other games.

OH no... you have enough on your plate without taking on the responsibility of a Managers' duties... that's ridiculous.. There's no doubt you could do the job, but why should you ?
 
Enjoying luck, stopped at Albertsons to pick up a bag of corn chips on sale. Had some ones & a $5.00 bill left out of a $10.00. There is a little nook that has about 12 poker machines.

What the heck play the $5.00. Playing quarters @ $1.25 on
the 3rd. draw got a royal in clubs for 4000 quarters. Figured I was ahead why not another hundred @ 50 cents. Almost out of the hundred hit 4 fours & a 3 for 800@ 50cents.
That will be fun money for as long as it lasts. Don't really expect it to last long though.

Getting epidural in my back, not sure upper or lower as everything hurts. It didn't work 20 years ago, so I hope it works now. Leaving soon.

I have had the series of three epidural injections twice in the last ten years. First time I got moderate relief and hoped the second series would build off that, sadly it didn't.

I wish the best for you, back pain sucks.
 
Today I get to lay under my big mower to weld a bracket back on that broke yesterday while mowing. Perfect day to be laying under a mower welding, it's like 85 degrees out and the humidities about the same. I'll be laying in a puddle of sweat by the time I'm done.
 
I have been cleaning my kitchen mostly this morning. Working on trying to get my printer to work again. It used to work great now all of a sudden it will not connect to my computer. Kind of puzzling.... I wanted to check what there might be written about it on Amazon where I bought it in 2018. I paid sixty dollars for it back then and now it is listed for $504. but that may be because it is discontinued by Brother. Well, I wasn't going to buy a new one anyway. The printer is not the problem, Ubuntu is.

79 degrees right now which is hot for me. I see most of you are having it hotter so not saying a word about that. Staying inside in the air conditioning. Stay cool everyone!
 
So hot today...93 degrees... 😰☀️💥☀️ I sat in the garden listening to a podcast on my headphones this morning , then got the hedge trimmer out and cut my neighbours' tree branches which are left to grow over my fence .. then as it got hotter, I decided to go to the garden centre..

...and it was very hot there... and I sat out in the breezy courtyard of the cafe with a cold drink for a little while... . Everywhere was really quiet I've never seen the car park of the garden centre so empty in 40 years...the heat had people staying home I think.
Bought some fence ornaments, and hanging plant pots.... and a couple of pretty vases for indoors..

Couldn't believe just how quiet the roads were for a Friday afternoon... lots of people didn't go to work today by the sight of so little traffic..

When I got home.. I drilled some screws into the fence , and hung some butterfly ornaments.. not the greatest job in the world, but but it'll do...

The heat is causing all the holly leaves to dry up and fall off, and the lawn is covered with them every day, it's proving to be a bit of a huge job sweeping them up and raking every day. We used to have a leaf blower and vacuum but it was so noisy we got rid of it, but I'm going to have to buy another one..
 
Follow up on post 12,718 -Wed re new pimple

So today I get a call from the Plastic Surgeon for July 7th...good...NOT
Seemingly these cosmetic guys set aside few hours each month for medical procedures which are covered by our OHIP
They would inspect and refer me to dermatologist away in another town...duh ...too far

But wait....the Plastic Surgeon clinic does not have access for walkers etc., which I need. There is no elevator and wow... there are only eighteen stairs to climb before I get there. Then of course I have to get back down. I guess elevators don't matter when one is having a boob job or facelift etc. The dermatologist issue then is moot.

So now back in the hands of my family Doc....
Now I am left wondering ..what's next:unsure:

Isn't life iust wonderful...throwing all these challenges at me !!!!!!!!!excited joy.gif
Not in my plan...oops that is another hot thread...shhh
 
Yep it’s hot here too but nothing unexpected for SE US. You learn to stay inside or in the pool.

glad I took the day off before returning to work tonight (taking call, don’t have to stay awake); I slept in til 1100– something this early bird very seldom does. Catching up on wash, errands, got two new books from the library and will make one more trip to pick up a prescription.

As much as I enjoy travel, my digestive tract is glad to get back to my at-home food. Even good road food is often too salty, too much in portion size or just too dang rich!

if you have to be outside, plz stay hydrated!

Can't you change your family doctor ?

I would if I could but none available... at least for old ladies in their 80's...common complaint here.

this is the same here unless we're paying privately out of pocket, and then those same consultants whose waiting lists are months long for NHS patients suddenly have room in their diaries tomorrow

Yes I got that from my brother who lives in Staffordshire.
He eventually did go private for his problem...satisfactorily but expensively.
Sister who is in Scotland has same story but she cannot afford to go private
