As far as reading,
Twins, currently I'm reading "Just the Nicest Couple" on my library app, Libby. (Author, Mary Kubica.) I can't really say I can recommend it yet; I just got started, but it has pulled me in. It's going to be a suspense/thriller type. So far, it appears that there are these two couples; the women are best friends and school teachers. One of the husbands apparently may or may not have made a pass at the other woman, even attempted rape, and she may or may not have hit him with a rock and killed him. I am only 14% in, so I have no idea if anyone is telling the truth yet, LOL... but it has grabbed my attention and I can't put it down until something comes along that I have to do, or it's 3:00 a.m. and I'm dozing off. But I've only had it two days.
So, today's PODA started with
[x] trip to elementary school book fair for dgd -- she bought a book with her own money and asked me to buy these two pens with little snow globes as toppers, "because G... and I are besties and we HAVE to have the same pen... and G spent all her money yesterday so she doesn't have any money today." I was ROFLOL. She also suggested we get her brother something, so I bought him a book. Then she got another squishy pen with her own money.
-- brag moment -- ddil had IEP meeting w/dgs' resource teacher. Found out he (in 6th grade) is on 12th grade reading level and 9th grade math.
-- brag moment #2 -- bedroom furniture switch seemed to be an amazing success -- dgd (2nd grade) got up and dressed, brushed her hair, and MADE HER BED with NO PROMPTING at all. There is hope for this household... [x] went to bank
-- they were no real help at all re: financial matters but made some suggestions about possible waiver of interest if I talked to credit card company again[x] called social security office, found out they can wait till after telephone interview to get copy of marriage certificate on file
[x] talked to dmom (who called me)
-- she said (for the second time) "Lucy, why don't you just let me pay for that, and if you want to call it a loan, you can, and you can certainly pay me back with no interest however you want to. Or just take it. As you well know, we were able to do more for your brother than we did you, simply because we didn't have the money when you were growing up. I've still got plenty of money from selling that lot recently, and if it will make you feel better, I can give your brother the same amount of money to keep it even."
-- I told her thank you and I don't know how we'll settle the payments/gift/whatever... but that is a load of my mind, to think I'm not going to be adding interest to a credit card payment that will take me a year to pay for.[x] went to Wmart,
-- got desert for church supper, peanut butter for this week's homeless donation request at church, a few other items, including an Italian cream cake, just because. I don't know if Wmart's is any good or not, but I never bought it before b/c dh hated coconut and I've been craving it. Also stopped at service station for a slice of Hunt's brothers pizza, just because.[x] ds came over, set out hydrangea and gardenia
[x] ds and I went to cemetery to see if we needed to discard flowers,
-- decided we'd leave them a few more days b/c some still had good color to them[x] TOOK A NAP
[x] PLAYED THE PIANO for about 20 minutes
[x] went to church, helped with supper, went to Bible Study class
-- told pastor about the lady at the retirement office suggesting GriefShare be offered at our church. Made me nervous -- now I'll be obligated to go because it was my idea... Sheesh... I need a new acronym -- MMN (made/makes me nervous.) Everything makes me nervous. Is that enough entertainment,
Twins?
Does ANYONE have any idea how to print a document that arrived in text message, which I emailed to myself, and now it shows up as an
HEVC Video Extension file? It is just a picture of a page in a spiral notebook -- list of addresses and phone numbers for those who ordered flowers at local florist. There's no video associated at all.
It gives a print icon at the top of the screen, but when I print, it just shoots out a blank page.
