Woke early.
Absolutely, positively the last dental appointment! Did some grocery shopping. Taxes, done!!!! Thank you, big refund coming soon :) Went to Michael's. I had a 50% off coupon burning a hole in my pocket. Bought stuff to start spring pen pal project. Next...finish laundry. Enjoy the rest of the afternoon, looking for trouble...hehehehe |
:| Geez, didn't mean for my post to sound like I had done all that BEFORE I had my first cuppa joy!!
No, no, did all that yesterday! I was just bragging about what I did yesterday... Today so far... Made two front panels for secret present for roomie, gotta find proper fabric for back side, hummm. Maybe polar fleece?? Don't know yet. Made breakfast and lunch for roomie. Ya I ate too. I had salad, she had ravioli in a can, blech, and tuna sammich. :| Ribs tonight!!!! Let see, ran an errand, critter duty as usual, I want a nap. :phonegab: Gonna puff up center of quilt squares, will look nifty. Finish mending pants, find my paint remover, gotta get crappy paint off dresser asap. Not sure what else. OH, find my stash for spring fling project I signed up for.... Okay, not fair telling what I'm gonna do. :canadian: <... me later... |
I've now sat upright and awake (strange, but I can be upright and asleep, so I have to specify), for more than 4 hours! A new record in the last 2 months. YAY!
|
Humm. Well, let's see... yesterday I...
made center of quilt blocks puffy, (look much better now) cooked, cleaned, worked on secret project (lots of ironing and sewing) mapped out garden strategy decided on big decision and goofed off. full day!! :byebye: |

Sweet FA
...and a good guitar playing, close-up selfie. |
I wrote and sent a Birthday card to my daughter. It's tricky because she's in her 30's now and all the jokes don't seem quite as funny to her anymore...lol.
See, when you're in your 60s, and up, people don't dare make snide age jokes cause what if you keeled over the next day. They'd feel awful ( for the most part ). But 30ers are fair game: generally in good health, in their prime, world's their oyster...and not nearly old enough to know it doesn't last forever...it's a party ...and I'd be the last one to spoil it for her. |
met sissy for breakfast and went to tge Dollar Tree for a girly shopping trip..
Bathed the big dog. Walked both dogs. Ate left over Thai food. Washed the bed linens. They are currently in the dryer. Washed the car. It was filthy. Waiting to go see Sir and take Him to work. |
No plans to accomplish much today on last day of the olympics and a hockey game. :D
If lucky I will finish marketing poster for a group class and drafting questions for my accountant? ;) |
Today my sister and I took our mom to a nice women's clothing store in McKinney, just north of where my parents—I guess I should say my mom—live.
She wanted to find a suit to wear to our dad's memorial service and graveside ceremony. She's lost so much weight, she's down to a size 6 and even tried on some size 4 skirts. In the end she bought two lovely slacks/skirt/suit jacket sets, one gray and one black. She also got a nice blouse. My sister and I were running back and forth bringing her different sizes and combinations of outfits. In the midst of it all, I got myself a little silk top to wear with my black skirt and sweater. Afterwards we went to a restaurant and it was very weird, not having him with us and it was awkward to pay for it ourselves, but we're falling into a pattern easily, of taking turns. Today I accomplished moving through the steps of this hard time. |
Well, let's see... yesterday, Sunday:
Worked on love seat cover. Got the bottom cushion almost done, need to add a casing along the bottom edge. Instead of buying an expensive zipper, I am making the cover with a casing on the bottom edge so Roomie only has to loosen the cord to remove the cover. Toss in the washer and dryer, and done! Much better than wrestling the dang thing. So it looks like an expensive custom cover but it's not! Today I have to figure out how to make the cover for the back, arms, and front panel along the bottom. :) Went grocery shopping. Have alot of cooking this week ahead of me. Wasn't feeling good after that so I went to bed. Still not feeling very perky right now. The weather is lovely outside, so I will probably go clean up the mess from the rain and wind after I get dressed and eat something. Later gators! :pirate-steer: |
|
I woke up..so far so good.
|
Got some work done.
Took a short walk. Got some more work done. Cleaned out the fridge. No out of date food but I do not need to know what was growing on the sticky shelf :| Ate a piece of cake. Pretty crummy! Too dry. Got some work done. Hung a cabbage in the chook run. Nothing excites a chicken like a nice fresh cabbage. Bit more work done. Looked at the tree stump. Looked at the tree stump some more. Decided it can wait. |
