Kittykatt, you have gotten so much done! Thanks for the info about the light. I'll find a way to connect it to the shelving unit next to my bed, and try that out.
Many, many years ago when I had four cats I bought a small plastic Christmas tree and only shatter-proof baubles so that they could roll it around the apartment. And they did.

Re: Wexford Blackcurrant Jam Wednesday
Ds is actually just getting into running. I wouldn't say he's strong. Apparently the others are. The whole team got the placement so he gets to go. It's really good for him cause he's coming from a physical developmental coordination disorder... behind by a year in motor skills ... to opportunities like this just cause he found his happy place in running? Hmmm. The rest placed high enough to get in. His goal is not to come in last. And complete it.
I got one side of the shelving painted. Do I flip it and do the other side or second coat and then flip it. And I should go for a fluff walk.
I did get my day off. My sister called. She's actually finally making progress. Someone is coming tomorrow to set up house cleaning help. Then we started with set up on day program and maybe some respite time occasionally. Phew. I think that will help. But trying to get it to go one step at a time. And it seems someone else can tell dad something we said for a long time and it's a brand new
. Hmmm. Whatever.
Today's tada list
Go read the recoat time on the can
Casper walk
Figure out supper and take meat out
Fold some laundry
Make supper
Guide ds in packing
Second coat sometime
Kitchen clean
Basic routines
Extra school run for permission slip
Floors
Groceries
Exchange stain for paint
Prescriptions etc

Re: Wexford Blackcurrant Jam Wednesday
WTG L.Ann on all that you got done.
You must be happy to see your DS enthused about sports, Lauralind. Good for his health in all kinds of ways.
It's frustrating that your dfather dismisses what you say until he hears it from someone outside the family. I think that's a really common thing, not directed at you.
WTG on progress on the painting. I'm sure that it will be beautiful whichever way you decide to paint it.
My joints started acting up, complaining that I have sat too long and then complaining that I have overexercised as soon as I stood up. I put the TV on and lay down. That made the joints happy, but I woke up shivering with cold feet and hands. I had already heated up the blankets with my body heat, so I should have been too hot, not shivering. So now I think that I am fighting some kind of bug. I'll just keep puttering and see how much I can get done that way.
