Nice morning

 

On the trail, by the factory, just across 

The street from the store, turns out

 All the boys walked the “hood twice briefly.9   I read to me,  Hedge Knight. I drove us  to Park, Red and I walked nearly a mile, encountering Kevin with the guitar and 2/3 dogs. I walked to Julie York’s store, Weekend Anime then returned with us to the parking lot. Can’t wake up since our return, any of us. Rain started when we got home. Too lethargic. Need to plan on cleaning tomorrow. Same kind of weather day forecast. 

Rainy sleepy day

 

Little dog can’t wake up this morning 

Should clear up sometime by the afternoon, but very cold and raining now; welcome to Maine, grandson. Doubtless a change from Georgia  I asked  A, when would you say the leaves burst out?  a week ago or two weeks? I forget. About the only sign of summer right  now, except for those two hot days last week, and I like that less than this weather; I have the stove on this morning very pleasant. I is still very tired—disregulated sleep, he says. But we went out, Red, me, and I, letting him drive to Staples by airport and to mall. Ate lunch there and went to arcade, only entrance outdoors. Inconvenient and overstimulating—noise to deafen. I spent 30 or 40$ on claw machines which was 40 percent of their “Entertainments” and wound up with 3 50 Cent toys for his girlfriend. I told him about the last time I warned him about wasting money on those machines  Certainly didn’t stick  We were in a movie theater here after going to two or three arcades and not finding one open when he was probably 10 or 12 years old.  Oh well. Guess I compensated with a one dollar ice cream cone that must’ve had a pint of ice cream on it  Certainly couldn’t eat it all  But I was glad to be out with him doing something that he normally enjoys

He read the hedge Knight beginning to meet at home that night talk to his girlfriend and Suzy on the phone and walked the dog with me. I think I’m giving him too many orders. 

He cooked a delicious dinner with my supervision:  steak, squash, greenbeans, a bit of watermelon and strawberries plus rolls and baked potato and choc cake for granddad.

Allan got highly stressed and unhappy with S’s disrespectful even abusive phone call, this braced with accusations that we are “filtering” her calls and contact with  I  i’d like to say I totally don’t but I think I do somewhat and I give unwarranted advice which she hates. I forget what she called them.grandma’s interjections

I don’t feel like cleaning house in this cold wet weather so I keep putting it off. We’ll get around to it.

Worth every penny?!!!

The smile is

Good morning

Needs work. Wednesday 

 Big doins today

I arrived safely and on time. Then I or BK totally botched lunch order. But everyone got fed after I “apologized profusely”. Mostly sorry for folks behind me. Now A and I are napping in the sunroom and he’s upstairs with his computer  Poor kid  like visiting a nursing home I think  we just don’t have much energy  

Airport 1:15, normal flight

So damn handsome!

Very busy

 

Across from doctors offices today

Energy level good all day. Muscles and joints functioning finish tomorrow 

Because blogger dropped my whole entry du jour. as has happened before 

So to repeat myself, if I can remember

Up very early. Made call to Hub ok to exchange couch. Red walk in sunshine ended abruptlyin showers.  B from Terminix came by with 4 more sticky traps.  Had a little time to go to Hub so picked a blue traditional couch, also little red table and brought that home with 3 pillows. Finished Reds walk down town. Went to SP for a mammo But had to postpone it because I had forgotten I was wearing the Zio. Went to pet food store And spent $100 plus on kibble and a couple of treats!!! Whoaa!  Stopped at McDonald’s and had ice cream cone and frappe for lunch. Very tasty. then home   Talked to neighbor s A  and A. Esp about contractors and move. Cooked supper later. Didn’t watch the TV all day. C visited with Nola in the evening  Pretty good energy level with just a couple of naps

Today

 

More stuff 

New York, New York

Knicks Game 4 Eastern conference playoff

Last night, E wrote

E and Y are visiting New York for a couple of days and this is the picture from their hotel window. I’d rather be looking at the crowd than I think.

As for me, the cleaning must continue and the body does not want to cooperate beyond certain extent. That’s what I get for putting it off so many years

Detritus

 

Never know what you will see when you look

Poured rain all morning. Dull. Moved furniture. Tired. Sun came out while walking Red. Damp and heating ul

Not memorable

 

Did you see this one??  Just last night

Tell myself I’m making up for all the work at the last few days but that’s just an excuse for laying around and watching TV on what turned out to be a rainy day.  I’m “resting  up”. Red has been particularly cuddly, maybe because of  the changes in the furniture got our long walk in early before the rain started did the two webinars. G is getting so tiresome to me. D is brilliant as always, esp other participants today. I just stopped and watch TV for hour after hour till dinner time and did talk to Dwight. Thank goodness. Disconnected somehow

Expectations

 

New couch and chair

Still waiting for the Furniture delivery and a 10 to 2 window it’s 145 now and I’m very anxious also very tired from all the cleaning in the last two days and today also second-guessing myself have I wasted resources again while I regret this purchase and the amount of furniture I now have around me so many questions anxiety too    All this effort so I can kick my feet back and watch TV on a presumably comfy couch

Arrived about 2:37 Or 337 I forget which.  So it’s installed and it definitely takes some getting used to new furniture Hope I haven’t made a mistake

Cleaner

   

Cleaning leaves a sense of accomplishment

   Very tired today, but beautiful weather so I got started around 130 cleaning out garage. Done in now after about four or five hours of hard work  Ready as I’m going to be for Furniture delivery can work a little bit more for rodent amelioration. Boy, do my feet hurt!  

   Spoke to I and E. I will arrive next Friday and stay until his birthday about five weeks. Very nice.
