Drove all the way down to the city annnnd forgot the bag with my clothes in it. Now I have to go shopping and I HATE shopping.
Me, too! I hate to go shopping. I especially hate shopping for clothing. I only go when I finally have worn out clothing and need something to wear.Drove all the way down to the city annnnd forgot the bag with my clothes in it. Now I have to go shopping and I HATE shopping.
Even more so for me!Me, too! I hate to go shopping. I especially hate shopping for clothing. I only go when I finally have worn out clothing and need something to wear.
Looking forward to dinner with you and your husband. We only have to wear masks at church when we are up and moving around. Many people now forget them. I have some that I think I will leave at the stand where our bulletins are kept by the front door. Last Sunday people were scrambling for them. Early on I started keeping some in the car because I kept forgetting them.Ugh fencing.
I've been all over the place today getting everything cleaned and ready for husband and I to leave town tomorrow. Now I'm wiped out. An amish nanny will be staying with the three while we are gone, and I'm sure they'll have a good time. We'll be going out where Weedy is, husband has medical stuff for a few days at the pulmonary hospital. Loonnnggg days. I'll bring my embroidery and a few books. And be meeting Weedy for a yummy dinner somewhere. So, up early tomorrow, pack a lunch and a thermos of coffee and off we go to the big city. Haven't been in a big city in a year, so I'll have to get my head ready for this. And maybe dress better. Ha. Masks required at the hospital, boo. I haven't worn one in forever.
Found the 2 ejected cartridges, at least I got the count rightBoth the "not standard to me" Rugers are in the gun safe. They are great guns if you have time to think.
Yes, skunks require a different response. I can tell skunks are around, but they are a lot shyer than those raccoons. Don't think the raccoons came for trouble, it just found all of us.At least it wasn't a couple skunks outside the door. It'd be a very different post... lol... Had that happen once, sort of... they were on my porch. Took me a couple hours just to get the house aired out!
Spent the day with my sister. Catching up and watching the Fifth Element. I introduced her to Alone, as well
I saw that she had some bamboo - the thin type - in her mini garden and that gave me the idea of getting some, since it's pretty cheap and I could make things with it. That could be fun. Other than that, I like how they look, creating a natural fence.
Power went out just as I finally got in to a good sleep. Landline phone wouldn't work to call out so I had to take my cellphone outside & try to get enough signal to call. I really need to have a power backup for the base phone + mom's cpap. Also need one for the modem & router.
Whenever the power is out I try to stay very still so I don't get overheated from the lack of air conditioning. So I napped until power came back on. Not sure why the power keeps going out but it's been going out more frequently again.
Tomorrow I may have to go up to Samsclub to get more water. Shoulder is really giving me trouble though. I was leaving my room & the door bumped something and bounced back to start closing while I was walking out, caught my shoulder. All I can do is keep trying to do the exercises and take naproxyn.
Amish, I hope you have a safe trip!
Raccoons are annoying. Never seen the skunks up close but the dog has been sprayed. Possums are Ok though. They don't hurt anything or anyone. The ones that have come in wanted some cookies and a nap. LOL. Bro had one that would reach and take cookies from his hand, eat its fill, and then go sleep in a cat bed.
Be careful with bamboo. My folks' neighbor has bamboo along the property line. It leans over the line and drops leaves. Not to mention it is taller than the houses and when it leans too much it scraps my parents' roof and windows. It grows very fast and needs to be cut back often. The previous owners planted it as a fence/privacy screen and when it cracked the retaining wall they planted more to upset my dad (who paid for the wall 20+ years ago).
The milk I bought that is supposed to be good until the 18th has already gone sour. I think my fridge might not be cold enough. Trying to remember if the higher number means colder. I will try putting it up one more or in between numbers to see if it cools better. But it's also possible that Walmart isn't transporting/storing it properly because the milk in my brother's fridge went bad early too. Normally it goes a day or 3 before but this is a full week early that it's gone bad.
If it keeps happening I'll have to talk to one of the Walmart managers about it (if I rule out my fridge as the culprit).
Grimm, thanks for the link.
Bamboo can be hard to get rid of once it's planted and it can be dangerous. Friend of mine had to go to the hospital because his leg got impaled by cut bamboo when he was trying to clear it from his grandmother's yard.
I do this & it works.Caribou said:
