I don’t know why I keep waking up in the middle of the night. I can go back to sleep okay, but I do wake up.

I got the pieces of the filing cabinet upstairs. (I figured that the assembly person wouldn’t do it for me.) I think that a piece might be missing? The assembly guy is here. He seems nice.

My Meijer order was canceled. I’m trying to add ( Read more... )

I bought a new battery pack and charger for my electric lawn mower. Cheaper than buying a new mower.

The pipe below the kitchen sink is leaking, and the caulking needs to be redone. Sigh. The organizers have cleaned everything in the kitchen including appliances.

I was reading about lilac bushes, and the article said not to plant them near a ( Read more... )

I found a utility cabinet for brooms, mops, etc. and cleaning supplies.

Well, hell. The rack from which to hang pots isn’t going to work. Apparently, there is a wall behind the drywall. Too bad; I like how the racks look.

I got my “Please don’t let the cats out” sign. I tried to put a nail into the siding and then the door to hang it, but it ( Read more... )

Woke up at 5 AM and dozed until 6.

The organizers are here working on the kitchen. The kitchen used to be Mom’s part to unpack because I don’t care much how it gets organized. They suggested putting appliances and baking sheets downstairs in the basement instead of pantry stuff, which is a good idea. I expected to be more involved than I was.

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 did get up early and shave my legs. But then I realized that I need to trim my toenails too. I'll do that after work. Also, I want to get another lock for the gym locker from Home Depot. I have one with a fixed combination, but I'll never remember it. I want one that I can set!

I'll need to stop at Meijer after swimming for a new belt and ( Read more... )

Woke up with my alarm and got dishes done before my shower. The power washing guy isn’t here, but it’s supposed to rain today. Okay, now he's here.

Had technical difficulties and was late to a meeting. Oh well.

The roofer guy came (while I was in my meeting with the life coach)! He said that the roof in the front part of the house and the garage ( Read more... )

I have a dilemma. I found a site that is selling #mauistrong t-shirts with the proceeds going to the Maui Humane Society. They're really nice shirts. But by the time that I wear short sleeves again, I'll be a different size. I suppose that I could get a couple for my Kauai trip. I did, and they also had a hoodie that I bought.

It's nice to believe ( Read more... )

Sam's Club said that the stepper and Total Gym will arrive by Friday, so I need to get the table out before then. The dumpster arrives on Monday. Maybe Wednesday?

Zara really wants me to feed her before I go to bed. Not happening. I think that she ate Mimi's food twice when Mimi was sleeping.

I woke up with my phone and alarm and alarm clock at 8 ( Read more... )

I was going through a bag of my aunt's papers, which have gotten mixed in with Mom's papers. I saw a picture of my aunt as a young adult, and I was thinking "when she was my age"! Uh no, a lot younger than I am now!

My daily Oracle card said to burn incense and count my blessings, so I bought some incense and a burner.

Had a nice nap.

I've made ( Read more... )
