Independence Day 2020
G00d Morning and Happy Birthday America! This has been a year hasn’t it? It can only get better I think. WE have gone through so much only to show we can be resilient.
So last night I watched most of the Wrath of Khan and a little of the Search for Spock. I had gone outside to see where the fireworks were being shot off from. I could barely see them and they were really loud either but I did walk to the end of my street and looked towards West Haven and noticed there were some that way. I am figuring it was near the HS or grounds of a couple of schools nearby Sky was sitting on the sofa above my head and then took off. I found them both at either end of my old bedroom. There are only 4 places that are officially holding firework displays this week in the area. Of course I was surprised when I heard them until I went outside and it had stopped raining.
Today has been a normal day (well accidently pocket dialing the emergency number mot withstanding) they called me back and I had to apologize and explain it was in error. I just hope they don’t charge me with a crime.
I have already played a few WWF games and now I am taking a break right now. I don’t know if that’s allowed but tough tutu’s if it isn’t. I don’t want to be attached to that all the time. I am already attached to the laptop way too much.
I had a chance to talk to family members already. Cousin Bill in MA, Brother Jim, and of courses my Niece Jen in NC. Waiting on sis to respond to text and then I will move along on the day.
It looks like it will be a beautiful day. Currently partly sunny and 74 degrees (it was in the lower 70s 2 hours ago) and it will be in the low 80s. No rain though. The grass is starting to look a little better.
Oh and I bailed again on the class. I will be walking sometime and then do cardio at the gym before it closes for the day. I had the rest of the remaining roast beef that I had been picking at this week. I need to throw out the meatloaf soon.
I have already started another grocery list but I still have much to feast on. I don’t have as many frozen vegetables. I have salad fixings and hopefully the semi fresh Brussel sprouts in the vegetable draw. I did get a hankering for a cherry pie so I went and got it and ate it within 10 minutes
Today must be the day I catch up with family whether it is online or in person. While I was at the store had a few moments to catch up with my Cousin Dan. He also works at the University by with the bigwigs. He is the Deputy Director of Communications of Development and Marketing.
I have been Watched the Aerial America Marathon on the Smithsonian channel. I have seen these all before. When I get a chance I go back to the blogsites and look up any blogs that are tagged with the states and most of what I get is political, news, etc.
I called Mama R this evening. She says the state has spiked from the Corona Virus. She reiterated masks are to be worn in public at all times. We talked about me going back to work. We talked about the fireworks going off and how to deal with it with pets, and PSTD. I told her what I will do if it gets bad. They were fine last night really.
I made some dinner of the lamb chops. That’s it nothing else. I may need to get going with the salads with it for the dinners. I will still need to get a few more things at the store tomorrow
I spent two hours for training purposes for Harassment in the Workplace training. It was two hours of information. There was so much how I will I remember it all? I am thinking I can google it.
Something is up with the phone. Getting to all the apps is different. I have to swipe up instead of their separate windows.
Well for the last hour and half been hearing fireworks go off in all directions. My plan to go around and close the windows was unfulfilled as I didn’t want to move from the laptop. It should be ending by 10. I will check in on the kitties. Oh well I just found Tiger on the stairs so I held it for a short time and put her on the sofa she decided to amble around and then upstairs to under the bed. Sky was stretched out under the bed so after struggling with google assist I got the answer and put some music on. I have to remain destressed It would help if google assistant would be more helpful.
