National Vanilla Cupcake Day

Today's Name Day: Martin, Martina

    What a super busy day I had!!  My daily stretching workout comes here at 10am.  I did it before lunch.  Does not take long.  I did it in the bedroom with both cats.  The weird looks they had on their faces as my arms waved & my legs moved around!  And I sat up & leaned around.  They were great to watch!!

    I have had a list of things I NEED & want to do.  Today was the day,  I finished changing all my friend lists on FB.

    The cats had a huge box they like to sit/lay on.  I wanted it gone.  Moving it was not easy.  But with enough effort I managed.  They now have a small table with a blanket on it to lay/sit on.  And they are not happy.  But they are accepting it slowly,

    Got the large box outside & gathered many used boxes to fill it with.  At least I was outside & could sit down.

    Next was supper of pizza.  Then ice cream for dessert.  And finally groceries.  There was no one anywhere tonight.  So quiet.  

    I took JR home & then got fuel.  It is pretty cheap & has been for a week.  I paid $2.69 a gallon.  Hope it lasts.

    I wore a nice gold safety pin on my sweater. that way people know I am safe to talk to or ask for help.  I am not one of the others.  I have read a lot of stuff & much what 45 wants to do is illegal.  Great.

    This week is dreadful.  Too busy. I am cancelling monday to stay home & rest & finish a couple of things on my list.  Tuesday has 2 major things & one I hope to change.  The rest of the week is busy & nothing I can change.

    Rain is a maybe midweek & next weekend,  Time will tell.

    Photos are of clouds.  I love photos with pink clouds.  These are close.

                            

17 february, 2023 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    A quiet day with the extreme of temps.  Not good.  I saw 13F & then 49F.  Slight breeze.  Warmer & much windier tomorrow.  Ick.  Where is February weather?

    I slept ok last night.  Cinder snuggled with me all night.  So did Nico.  Kisse was very close to my bed ---- in the chair next to my bed.  She likes the blankets.  She has not slept in my bed for years.  I think she is picky about anyone moving.

    I had grocery stuff delivered by Amazon.  Several things were heavy --- cat litter, cat food, etc.  I would have given anything to have someone help me carry them in.  Could not leave them out as raccoons can smell food through cardboard.  Maybe steel too!!  I did not want a mess to clean up!  I got it all inside & put away.  Hope without damage to any joints.

    No Jalisco's tonight.  JR had plans & I decided just to stay home.  No fun to sit alone.  I could have gone to Salina to a drive through.  Too lazy to go. Maybe eat out tomorrow evening.

    No texting or anything today.  I hate to bother anyone who works.  Their free time is precious.  When I get told not to bother at certain times,  I learn not to bother.  Their peace of mind is better than how I feel.

    Photos are things around where I live.  The first photo is the sweetest little tree that was in the ditch near my drive.  But someone had to ruin it.  Very sad to see.  All raggedy.

    The second photo was a party sign near where I live.  I have no idea where the party was or why.  I was not invited.  Not had even one invite since Willie died.  No surprise.

    People who live not too far from me have goats.  Cool.  If I stop for photos sometimes I can hear them.

    Birds are the awful black birds we have.  They swarm in huge numbers.  They chase little birds away from feeders.  And the turkeys are cool.  Used to have groups in my yard, but no more.  They liked the wheat that Willie cleaned out of the combines.  But no wheat here anymore.  Makes me sad.  They were fun to watch.

    Last photo are hedge balls.  Every year there is at least one that gets caught somewhere on the tree when falling.

                    

Sheltering in Place, Mood Of Silence, Day 349....

 

Today was OK. Warm with no wind. Nico and I sat outside for a long time.

I cancelled one appointment today. No reason other than I was not in the mood. At this stage in life I can do what I want. No questions.

I got groceries late afternoon. So easy. Today from Whites. Some times I use Dillons. Good to have bread and lunch meat!

Stray dog visited again. He must walk on our porch. Nico sniffs everywhere. Hope he belongs to the neighbors. Not sure I need another pet.

I am addicted to 'Maine Cabin Masters. Love watching all they do. Wish they would come here!! The crew seem nice! And they are all funny!

I gathered most of my trash in bags. I need to tackle my husband's office. I started a bag of stuff that was scattered on the floor. Trash can is stacked high. Maybe have JR carry out as I fill trash bags. No fun cleaning up from someone who had dementia and was an alcoholic. A challenge for me. How he must have suffered.

My friend who is moving needs boxes. I have been saving some really large ones. Trunk of my car almost would not close! Glad to be rid of them.

Feeling better. Taking long enough. Still extra tired. No more pain in the arm that got the shot. How bad will the next be?

Always be kind to others.

Photos are old ones.
