I didn't get to sleep

 

 

I went to bed early but couldn't fall asleep.   I got up and went back to watching the NCIS marathon on Sundance channel.  I even made a baked apple.  It was very hot.  It was nearly 2 in the morning that I fell asleep

Anyway, I had a panic attack.  I paid the HOA fees but now my budget will be tight this week.   I'll have just one or two bills this week.   This week, I will need to exercise greater caution regarding dining out for meals. 

I am going to force myself to update the budgets and be more diligent. 

I cooked fish for brunch in the late morning.   Just cooked it with Lemon juice and seasoned it.  No sides which is probably not healthy.  I watched TV, did some dusting and odds and ends. 

I watched Sky climb under the covers on the bed for the first time in a long while.  That’s probably because I hadn’t made the bed in a while either.  He came out around 3.  He split his time between the back of the bookcase and the regular cat tree where he eventually hacked a hairball.  Now he is on the other cat tree that Gill gave me.  He has been fed.

The afternoon was okay.  I watched TV and managed to vacuum the Livingroom.  That’s it.  I could finish the rest tomorrow.  I mean it is my vacation.

 

 

 

The neighbor observed that I was still wearing my pajamas.  I reminded them about the vacation. I'm tired of feeling like I need to explain myself.  One of these days I am going to destroy whatever friendship we have.

I ordered groceries for tomorrow.  I don’t feel like going out there yet.    I know I forgot a few things.  It will have to go on the next list. 

I was just about to go to bed but I got an alert that I got an Amazon delivery.  It turned out to be cat magnets from my friend Venus and they are adorable.  Thank you!

I washed the dishes, took my meds and about to go to bed….

It is a beautiful Friday morning. It's about 68° sunny and some clouds were supposed to be cloudy all day. I don't have much planned for today except housekeeping trying to pick up some stuff relaxing.

Yesterday I made it to Peabody Museum. LG could not make it after all, so it took an hour and a half to get through it. The exhibits were great three floors I know that I missed some stuff, but I got to see Burke hall of dinosaurs the ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia Mesoamerican in Ancient Egyptian & Andean civilizations I guess they call it.  All names that probably mean nothing to anyone else.   TBH some of it was a little boring but I still enjoyed it.  Don’t tell anyone

On the way home I called Mama Roberta, and we caught up on things for each of us.  She and Papa celebrated their birthdays and anniversaries on Tuesday with a dinner out.  She says they go out early in the morning or late at night when it is cooler.  They really do avoid the strip if they can.

I also stopped at Popeyes for Lunch.  I got some wings, mashed potatoes, and soda. 

The rest of the day I got lazy.  Took a nap, watched TV, and got on the computer. 

Today I was planning to do housework, but I am being sluggish about that.  I am also feeling guilty about it too.

I am a little aggravated because I thought I took out the feather duster.  I can’t find where I put it.  I have been looking for the past hour.  I am going to have use the wood cleaner after all.  Sigh.  Edited to Add as soon as I wrote I couldn’t find the duster.  I found it in the kitchen on a chair.

Hey, I heard from Troy in the last couple of days.  He is still in CT and they are planning on Moving sometime to Massachusetts or Rhode Island.  I don’t know if he got the job, he interviewed for but I don’t want to ask him.  I just told him how things are going at work and that we lost a colleague.

Well, I am going to go watch more TV.  I cleaned up from dinner.  It wasn’t much.  Some spaghetti, toast,  I really need to stop grazing.  I have gained weight again and I can feel it.

Dear Friends

Happy Monday.  I hope your day went well.  Since I had a rough night of sleeping I overslept and truthfully procrastinated.  I had to get gas for the car.  So needless to say I was l-a-t-e.  Luckily the mail volume was light so I could do the re-address mail.

I talked with Mom this morning she had been up a short time and about to get thing ready in preparation for Jim and the kids visit.  It wasn’t until I got home I found out the kids had other plans with their mother so he came alone.   He will be here until Wednesday morning.

Yes I finally got a hold of Liz today.  Actually I left a couple of messages everywhere...she called me back midday.  She and the kids (Chris joined them too) went on a mini vacation up to Waterbury for the waterbury water park.  Its attached to a hotel.  Its called  Coco Key Water Resort and Hotel.  I haven’t been there but I have heard only sporadic things about it.  It has gotten mixed reviews here.  I will see what Liz has to say about it when I see her later this week.

my Iron infusion went well.  I saw Dr. Lu for 15 minutes first and I had some blood work done.  I did show him  the redness on my arm from the last infusion and that it was tender.  He prescribed an antibiotic for it.  I was given my infusion and watched the news for the next thirty minutes.

It was almost 5;30 when I got home.  Jim was in the guest room reading and Mom was getting dinner started but we didn’t really eat until 6.  We had steak and perogies and salad.  As we were cleaning up M&T came over to visit and to share the peach pie for dessert.  

AFter awhile it was just us.  I helped with the dishes and then talked with JIm while Mom watched TV

Now I am going to bed.
