Well I've just been cleaning the top of the kitchen cupboards. I don't know why they get greasy when I have an extractor hood.. but they do ...

I've just discovered to my absolute astonishment that if I use multi purpose Pledge on my mirrors and on the windows and glass items, it doesn't streak..OMG!!😃 I have spent years trying every window and glass cleaner on the market and never found anything that doesn't leave some kind of streaks or haze.. and here it was in my cupboard all the time, masquerading as Furniture Polish..:eek:

all my mirrors now are streak free.. yeaaah.. means I can go around everywhere now with just one Can of spray.. use it on furniture and glass

..so excited... it's sad..lol.

Holly, what do you use to clean the grease off the cabinets? That's what I have problems with?

Thinking of you, Hawky. Please go and have your tummy checked out. At least you may get some meds to help. Update, please. 🌹

You have been putting this off for a while. Today you have someone to get you there and all you have to do is get dressed. You will feel so much better without pain (think about it) and you will know what it is. Please go, it's been too long now. 🤗

I’m in a mood.
Have had a cold creeping up since Thursday, Saturday, it’s found it way to bronchitis, which always happens with me.
Need to pick up dog food…..I should have done it Friday, but I thought I would feel better today….nope.
I will go to the drug store and get my usual stuff, when I have this…..I hate going out and spreading germs.

I could call my foster daughter to pick up the stuff……nope……I would have to go pick her up……so, defeats the purpose, just get stuff myself……because their vehicle has been down since early August, with a blown tire…..she said they have a tire, but don’t have the money to have it put on……..seriously…….but have money for all sorts of things like weed, booze and junk……the kids are fine, they have everything they need…….so she calls on people to give them rides.
She’s 30, he’s 37……time to learn and join the adult world.
They’ve been in town for 5 years…..have gone through many vehicles……been without many times.
They do not know how to budget.

Saturday she messaged me to get a ride to another town……but, sorry, I laid down and fell asleep……got back to her, but she didn’t reply back……that’s another reason I don’t message her for help, she doesn’t reply back a good part of the time…..for her usual reasons.

So I’ll get what I need today, and be a couch potato.

I hate going to the doctor when I’m sick. 🙄🙃😒😏🤧😷🤒🙄

@MickaC i’m so sorry you feel badly. ::sending hugs and virtual chicken soup :: 😘
 
Waiting for my financial advisor to call. Going to start drawing on my IRA. He has talked me out of it many times. Holding my ground today and getting some money. Have to treat it like when they try to sell you an extended warranty on a car. They will break out the hot lights and rubber hoses but you have to stand firm. He doesn't care what benefits me or what I want, he is in it to keep the companies money in the company as long as possible.
 
Well, I met with the new doctor. Young, enthusiastic, thorough, but has a heavy accent. Between her mask, a soft voice and the fact that my ears aren't what they used to be, I had to keep asking her to repeat herself. That may be a problem.

She scheduled some testing at another location but when I tried to call them repeatedly, the call wouldn't go through. So I think, hey, I'll just run over there and make the appointment in person.

Unfortunately, they have about half the parking spaces they need. Cars were circling and circling and I saw two drivers getting ready to fight over the same spot. I ended up parking in a no-parking spot and dashed in. Yep, their phone system was ka-plooey. Luckily, I made an appointment and got back out before I got towed or ticketed.

I don't know why these businesses build facilities without adequate parking. It's the same just about everywhere I have medical appointments. Lack of parking.

Same here.. and what's worse is all these Medical facilities including hospitals are pay only car parks.. and expensive charges at that.. . Heavy fines if we don't pay..
 
@hawkdon I'm with @hollydolly and others. Go! Gramma has spoken.

Guess what kids? According to the alarm on my phone, I don't have to get out of bed for two days. Well...close to two days. It's not gonna sing in my ear until Wednesday morning. As if that matters. Maggiecat will purr in my ear no matter what day it is.

I got home and sat in the sun for a while with a mug of iced coffee and listened to beautiful music on my HD radio. Our classical station has three frequencies...one for local news and items of interest, one for classical music 24 hours/day, and one for mostly BBC but other international stations, as well.

Then I made a leisurely trek around the garden, hose in hand, admired the flowers, pulled a few weeds and watered everybody thoroughly.

For those of you in the hurricane's path, take special care. We're only supposed to get a lot of rain and much cooler temps up here. Mexican potato soup is on the menu for Friday, which is supposed to be the worst day.

Time for a piece of chocolate and a nap.

I'm back! Breakfast was good! We walked around town a little, I bought 2 more mums for the garden, we grabbed a pizza for later, and came home.

Oh, we also stopped by my surgeons office, and I rescheduled my appointment. I was supposed to go in tomorrow, but, well, I'll be at the rink tomorrow, instead.....it's all about priorities!!! LOL. Anyway, my appointment will be on Thurs, and I think (hope!) that he will remove all restrictions, including the cast. I'm ready! Since yesterday, I've been taking the cast off around the house. My hand is mostly useless, but I'm doing little things with it as a start to getting it back in shape! Once I get the official ok from my surgeon I'll start doing more with it.

I mentioned that tomorrow is a rink day, a very early rink day. We will have to leave the house around 5 a.m. 😴 💤💤

Ha, good luck, he'll probably swoon at the idea of taking money out when the market is down, though I hope if he is a good financial advisor he has made sure you always have a year or two of cash type investments that you can use guiltlessly.
 
Today I was stuck waiting for the hotel maintenance person, but finally free in the afternoon to go to the store for items I forgot yesterday. It turns out they have a Wegman's here, so I went to that. It had covered parking, I don't think I have ever in my life been to a suburban grocery store that had covered parking.

The store had a big Shana Tova banner inside with a lot of round Challah which caused me to whip out my phone and google 'when is Rosh Hashanah?'. Sure enough it had already started! Now I am well supplied with honey, apples, and challah (my usual good food choices are on hiatus).
