Well that shopping day wasn't really worth much. I found a blouse with a pullover tee that I can swear beneath the blouse. And that was it. Bought some Milano cookies and a bag of Goldfish crackers at the Pepperidge Farm outlet; they were for Dear Richard who loves both of them. And I treated Rick to dinner at Red Lobster, his choice of restaurant. There was supposed to be a Dockers outlet in Lancaster; there was not. There was supposed to be a London Fog outlet in Lancaster; there was not. I really didn't buy anything. Really, the whole thing was a bit of a bust, although it was nice just for Rick and I to spend some time together. I think that, at this point, I'll wait until I have off work for the Columbus Day holiday in October and go out to do a bit of shopping by myself. Or maybe go in September when Rick is in Portland.

So for today.....
  • Breakfast for the furkids, 4. miles on the treadmill, made the bed, grabbed a shower, and came to work.
  • Planning Commission meeting right after work; we have two plans to review (I hate having to review plans....don't like having to do presentations. Ick)
  • A bit of grocery shopping tonight 
  • It's an exercise night
  • And I really need to get rid of this blasted headache

It's Wednesday, so that means:
  • It's trash night, so clean out the litter boxes
  • I have three loads of laundry on the hallway floor that I separated this morning
  • A quick vacuum and Swiffer about the living room and kitchen

    Hoping for a quiet day!)
  • Need to call Rick's mom. She's been hungry for fast food (evidently, they used to enjoy Wendy's food often), so I'm going to give her a choice this weekend. We can either stop at Wendy's tomorrow after our errands, pick up some food, and have lunch with her tomorrow. Or she can come down to the house on Sunday as there's a Grilled Bourbon Chicken recipe that I want to try. And I'll make some potato salad. Crock pot beans. With apple pie for dessert. Her choice. Or both, if that's what she wants.
  • Not much going on tonight. A quick vacuum about the house, scoop the boxes and that's pretty much it.
I still have this blasted headache.....Day 4. Started on the left temple, now it's moved over to my right temple. Hopefully it's on its way out now. Had my hair appt last night. She did the color and washed my hair. I didn't let her dry it; by that time my head was throbbing. I let it air dry (so now it's all frizzy, of course) and came home.

Cats were screaming for breakfast bright and early this morning; they started in around 4:00. Thankfully, we had the window fan on in the bedroom, so I was able to ignore them until around 5:30 when they all ganged-up on us. At that point, we were out of bed, dressed, and making breakfast.
  • Breakfast for the furkids, emptied out the dishwasher, 2.25 miles on the treadmill (while Rick scooped boxes)
  • Having lunch today with Rick's mom
  • I may have to mow the weeds today as it's supposed to rain on Sunday
  • A bit of housework: vacuum, dust a bit, wipe down the kitchen and bathroom
Nothing all that interesting

...with the cats...
i'll try for making the pudding again today, wash the dishes, scoop litter boxes, and do some research online. and i'll move the leftover tuna noodle casserole from the freezer to the fridge, to thaw. other than that, my plan is to relax and have a nice peaceful day with the cats.

I awakened this morning around 3:30 and never really got back to sleep. I have about half a headache around my left temple again; it's not as bad as it was last night. Honestly, sometimes I start thinking about coming back into the office and, before I know it, I've a headache. I must be allergic to this place.
  • Breakfast for the furkids, cleaned the kitchen a bit, grabbed a shower, and came to work. (Rick is off today; he said he'd take care of the litter boxes when he gets back up this morning)
  • A bit of grocery shopping today after work. I got an email from PetSmart on Saturday with another $10 off $30 coupon. We used that Saturday night. Ten bucks is ten bucks and it all helps. And now we don't have to buy pet supplies today.
  • Tonight is an exercise night. I mentioned in the Exercise thread that I'm taking a couple days off the treadmill as that muscle is really jerking again. It only takes a couple days and then I seem to be all right for a while. It's the first time I've not used the treadmill since around the middle of June, so I guess I was due. But I'm still exercising with the dumbbells.

Not much on my agenda for today.
  • Did the usual breakfast thing with the furkids this morning, did my PT stretches, scooped the boxes, grabbed a quick shower, and here I am.
  • Opening a new savings account today over lunch. I came into a considerable amount of money and I really don't know what I want to do with it yet. A lot of it depends on the presidential election in November and I want to get through that before I make any decisions. So the money (for now) is going into a savings account.
  • Scoop the boxes tonight
And other than my mat exercises tonight, I think that's pretty much it.

Yesterday was a hectic day:

Was on the phone all morning.. I absolutely hate that!!

I got up at 8 am--late for me...Regular morning stuff and all the below:

Was talking to my cousin,

 the woman who is helping Angel (long winded),

 started to call some businesses to be sponsors for the Church festival; Telephone tag with one of them.

Went to pick up some stuff at Trader Joes

Home

Dropped off rental car

Got my car

Another phone call from the Human Society woman

Washed some laundry

Today:

Regular morning stuff including medicating and brushing Artie

Wash another load of clothes

Dump and completely wash litter box --one is really in need of cleaning.

Contact T to see if I should go up to medicate and work with Angel (she is a very late riser-so it will be late morning)

Perhaps try to get some more donations for Church festival

Call to get car in for oil change, alignment, and AC evualated

Make salad for supper---boil some eggs for it. 

so far I think that is all...

I have been so busy this month... my gym membership is going to waste because I cannot find time for it..

It's Wednesday, so:
  • The breakfast thing with the furkids, scooped the boxes, shower, work, all that good stuff.
  • I sorted two piles of laundry on the hallway floor to be washed tonight
  • Trash night and that means scouring out the litter boxes
  • Clarence needs an oil change and I keep forgetting to call down to the garage to schedule the thing!

Today:

Quick morning routine

Doctors appointment in Boston

home

Need to go to Walmart to pick up a couple of thing--shudder.. maybe tomorrow.

Have to go around and get a couple more sponsors for church social

Up to PetSmart again........long story and making for a long day....

in between, am not sure.. a couple quick shopping errands, or use the swiffer in the house, write out some bills, organize my pile of mail...

Car going into shop on Monday for an oil change, alignment, and to check out the AC unit.. It does not seem to be working well.. The car is 8 years old and this summer has been so hot.. The AC just seems not to be very strong, or cooling.. I need to check it out...so I have to do my running around before Monday...

It will be in the shop for at least a few hours. I will be getting a ride home and then they will pick me up when it is ready...

It is going to be another hot day today.. will be closing down the place and put the AC on soon.

  • Breakfast thing for the furkids, emptied out the dishwasher, scooped the boxes. Still need to grab my shower and head into work.
  • I want to go into town today during lunch, but we'll see how that goes. There's a cookbook, All About Braising, that has caught my eye.
  • My GF is having computer problems again....she can't get her email to work properly. It's making me crazy at this point; every time I turn around, there's something funky with her computer. I don't know what I can do about the blasted email anymore; I really think she needs to pay for a computer guru to take a look at things. She won't pay for it though and she keeps expecting me to fix things when they go wrong. And I'm not a computer guru! I'm going in right after work this afternoon.

I don't have anything much at all planned for tonight, other than checking the litter boxes. Maybe an early night tonight. I may read for a while. Nothing exciting.
