Mimi likes sleeping on the wicker chairs upstairs. There are two, and she moves back and forth between them.
After waking up a couple of times during the night, I woke up at 6 AM, which is reasonable. Mimi: Mom, food? Me: Were you waiting for me to get up?
Today it’s supposed to rain, so it’s a day for chores inside the house.
Napped. Feeling groggy after my nap.
I need to pull out cleaning clothes to clean the bathrooms. I won’t shower first because I’ll get grungy.
Zara wants food. Actually, so do I.
I couldn’t find my cleaning clothes, so I pulled another pair of shorts and a t-shirt out. I think that I’ll need a shower to wake up. I checked, and I have my cleaning supplies.
I've been emailing with Erik (my ex) about electric cars because he has one. The KIA EV6 is closest to my price range, but I might have to settle for a hybrid. I had been looking at the Subaru Forester Hybrid before looking at all-electric cars.
I’m reading a book with tidbits about the Olympics. I looked at Sling but can’t tell what packages I’d need for the Olympics. I’ll contact them after I get back from Italy.
Decided that I wanted another short nap. Couldn’t sleep.
Showered. Put towels in the wash. I’m thinking of going outside later to put together the compost bin. It’s sunny out right now. I wonder if the grass will dry enough to mow.
I’m cleaning out my dresser drawers to put new stuff in. I found a pretty pair of flowered shorts that I want to take to Italy. But I need a pink or navy top with it, so I ordered a couple. I’m going to take a pair of shorts and a t-shirt in my backpack, but I’m trying to decide between blue or white shorts or maybe my black-and-white flowered shorts with a black t-shirt?. And where are my packing cubes? I bought a large set of cream-colored packing cubes. They weren’t very expensive.
It looks like I’ll have plenty of room in my suitcase for souvenirs, not that I’ll have a lot of money to buy stuff. But that was my plan. I have two pairs of “bend-over” pants with blazers and two pairs of shorts with t-shirts. I should throw in a pair of jeans (done). Maybe I’ll wear jeans on the plane.
Got the other side of the house mowed. That leaves the back for tomorrow and a quick touch up in front before I leave. I need more lawn and leaf bags. I have way too many grass clippings for the compost bin. I’ll need to call my garbage company on Tuesday to see if they’ll take them. I ordered the bags from Walmart with enough other stuff so that they won't charge me for a small order. And Mimi wants attention.
It might rain tonight.
I'm yawning already. If I have trouble sleeping, I should go mow the lawn :) Knocks me right out.
I'm trying to set up the app for my FlyKitt (jet lag kit), but I'm getting an "unsecure Web site" error. I emailed the company.
I'm thinking of going to bed really early and cleaning the bathrooms when I wake up. I've run out of juice :) I think that I'll put clothes in the dryer, do the dishes, scoop the litter boxes, and crash.
