Forgot to mention that my baby spider plants are doing really well. One is getting kind of big!

The Lawn Love people applied fertilizer and weed killer to my lawn, so I can't seed it right now. Sigh. That rec has ( Read more... )

I overslept and couldn’t take a shower, but I made it on time for Italian. It went well. She asked if I had gotten more sleep because it went better.

I just realized that I put the garbage out a day early yesterday. I’m getting my days mixed up.

Apparently I broke my little toe when I fell. That’s why the foot hurts. The radiologist also said ( Read more... )

Hmm. There is a U.S. - Italian Dating Facebook group. It's a private group, so I don't know how old the people are on it though.

Woke up at 3:30 AM. Stayed up for a little while and then went back to sleep. Woke up at 8:30.

I made an appointment to get the RSV vaccine next weekend. Then I’ll be caught up. I checked on the pneumonia vaccine, but ( Read more... )

Overslept this morning. Had to wait until lunchtime to take a shower.

We had an interesting meeting this morning with a librarian who studies low morale in libraries. No one is saying that our organization is low morale thought; it isn't. It was more for our education.

I paid for my Italian lessons and some music lessons last night. I couldn't get a full 45 minutes this week with my piano teacher, so I booked 30 minutes.

My groceries arrived. Brought them in and fed the cats and myself.

Overslept my lunchtime nap. I don't know why I'm so sleepy right now. The cats are being extra-snuggly, maybe because it's ( Read more... )

I'm looking at swimsuits for my cruise. I should order relatively soon to be sure to have it for my trip. I'll definitely have two beach days plus pool time on the ship, and possibly some beach time in San Juan. I think that tankinis are the way to go. I'm thinking this one and this one. Or possibly this one. I definitely want the purple one. I ( Read more... )

The BBC has a story about buying old houses in Puglia, and in it, a guy was speaking Italian. It reminded me how much I like listening to Italian. I understood part of it.

Got up early. Threw myself together and fed the cats. Mimi, apparently, is sleeping in.

Well, crud. I couldn’t find my purse anywhere. I finally remembered that I brought it ( Read more... )

Got up early. Put the hose away.

I'm "backup on-call" at work right before winter break, so I can't leave for New York (assuming that I go to New York) before the weekend. Why do I think that we have a concert that weekend? Must check. No, it's the week before. Good.

I'm wondering about Mom's house. I must check the progress when I'm up on the ( Read more... )

Now I think ( Read more... )

No contact from the lawn mower guy so far.

Had a nice nap at lunch and overslept.

Crud. My dad thinks that the economy is acting a lot like 2008 and there is likely to be a recession. He said, "If it happens, the shit will hit the fan between the third week of September and the third week of October." That's when my mom's house is likely to go up ( Read more... )
