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... )

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... )

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... )

Overslept this morning. I was a little late for work.

Well, hell. The mower guy hasn't showed up so far. Apparently he sent a message asking to mow on Sunday, but I missed it. Now the cleaner hasn't shown up.

Oh crap. I had an Italian lesson this morning and completely forgot about it. I sent a message to the teacher apologizing.

The cleaner ( Read more... )

I remembered to do 1SE for this month!

Oh cool. threemeninaboat on DW mentioned a volunteer group in which you write postcards encouraging voters to vote. That's more like me than knocking on doors. I sent an email asking to volunteer. They responded, and I need to do a "sample postcard," take a picture of it, and send it to them. I ordered some postcards to ( Read more... )

I ordered two Kamala for President bumper stickers: one for my car and one for Mom's car. She would approve :) And I ordered another "Cat Ladies for Harris" sticker for my mom's car.

The good news: my scale said that I am down 20 pounds. The bad news: I’ve been dizzy lately, so I wonder if I’ve been eating enough. I had my check-in with Jenny ( Read more... )

Just remembered that I needed to subscribe to Peacock for the Olympics (done)! I'm looking forward to them.

Crap. I need to go up to Michigan soon because the city of Southfield is complaining about my mom’s car parked on the grass. I’ll talk to the trust about booking a trip for me.

Hmm. I could put an air mattress in my mom’s house, but I don’t ( Read more... )

The linen sheets are very cool. I’ll have to get another set of them.

Woke up at 11:30 AM. Mimi: We want food. Nooooow!

I finished The Wishing Year. Very interesting.

Took a nap. My alarm didn't go off because it was for weekdays only, so I overslept. Had lunch.

OMG. Biden dropped out of the race! Kamala Harris is the nominee.
I had agreed to ( Read more... )

I overslept. I'll take my shower at lunch. No, I'm being a skuzz queen today with no shower.

Mimi, of course, wanted lap time as soon as I sat at my work computer. She has settled down now.

Hmm. I was pondering how to remember verb conjugations because that's my downfall in foreign languages. I looked for suggestions, and found one that said to ( Read more... )

Woke up around 8 before my alarm. Mimi came over to lie on me.

Filled out the paperwork for my sleep study. Bought a pair of new-to-me jeans and a "Mexican Baja" hoodie.

I dressed kind of stylishly because I was voting and because I need to do laundry.

Got the equipment for my sleep study. They want me to return it in the morning, so I need to ( Read more... )
