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 booked my next piano lesson, the songwriting and music theory classes, and the hotel for my trip to Michigan the weekend after the next one.

I forgot to mention that I found two trunks (one, two) that I’d like to use as end tables. But I’d have to drive to the Chicago area and Crown Point, Indiana. But they’re cheaper than buying similar ones on ( Read more... )

I had my Italian lesson. She said that I was good at translating Italian to English ("You should be a translator!") but struggle in speaking Italian and thinking of new things to say. I need to practice a lot of verb tenses also.

Had class. The homework assignment that I thought was due tonight is due next week. I spent a long time cooling my ( Read more... )

Found a really nice tan leather blazer in a bag of stuff from Stitch Fix. Went on the Internet to find ideas of how to wear it and bought a white sweater and green jeans. Actually, I think that I’m going to wear it on the Detroit-Chicago flight with blue jeans and a white sweater.

Woke up at 8 AM. I’m trying to convince myself not to go back to ( Read more... )

I got to the hair salon way early. The stylist texted me and said that she had a cancellation, and could I come earlier? I said, “Sure, I’m outside.” I got a really cute bob haircut, chin length. She blow-dried it straight, and it made me wonder if I should get a styling brush and bring my blow-dryer to Kauai. I made another appointment with her in ( Read more... )

My strategy with eBay is if I find something that I like, I wishlist it, and often the sellers will give a discount. It worked for the blue tweed blazer that I wanted.

Woke up around 8 AM. Selected my BistroMD meals. Started a load of laundry. Got boxes for the packing person. Had a good petting session with Mimi. Found my missing pair of glasses ( Read more... )

I woke to my alarm but then realized that my meeting with the photography teacher is at 1, not noon. That gives me time for a short nap.

The mower guy is coming, and I tried to move the cars, but my mom’s car wouldn’t start. I’ll need to use AAA to start it once I get the new insurance on it.

I had my meeting with the photography teacher. I liked ( Read more... )

I booked an Italian lesson and French lesson. Well, the teacher doesn't like the times. Sigh. I think that we've negotiated times, but she wanted to start next week because she's not feeling well.

Holy cow. My Global Entry application was conditionally approved, and I have an appointment the Monday of Thanksgiving week. Far out. And I have the ( Read more... )
