Thursday Thimbles

[RunKitty]

Started lol.
Put ingredients for whole wheat cinnamon bread with flax seed into bread machine. It is doing the kneading for me.
Eating spinach, edamame, avocado salad for lunch.
I love my payroll job, but really miss being at home.

That's some healthy eating, RunKitty.

I sometimes have problems with other people's attitudes. Mostly I try to just let their ignorance go. We do have a not-close family member who has problems with race. DH told this person "you didn't get that from me". And I had a real problem with the place where we worked recently. People grumbling because we had a work truck there. Like they're too good to look out their window and see a work truck nearby...like they were too good for the likes of us. It surprised me how annoyed I felt about that attitude. I don't consider myself any better or any worse than anyone else. I might be better in some areas than others, and the same for them. It's in the getting along with all types that's the key, I guess.

Well, that was a soapbox speech...

Couple runs out with DH while he set up next jobsite. Another hard place to work with not much space to park and too many people. I felt like I was forever in traffic jams.

Good thing was the location..I was able to get 2 things done on the way.

(Lilac) know it's hard when our spouse takes out their frustration on us. If mine was to give up something as bad as smoking, though, I would probably just bite my tongue for a while until things got better...it'll benefit him and you in the long run. I wish him success. And good for you doing the same!

Came home and got some more chores done and my exercise in. Boy it's been a busy day here.

First pass of the taxes and we owe. Will have to see if I have any deductions I missed (like a loss I can carry forward.)

At least I still have a week to finish doing this. May have to print off and mail in this year because I forgot to change my address so may not be able to file electronically.

Good time at the Escher and dinner. Had a nice dinner before hand. Ds and SurferDude came back and we had a good visit. We'll visit him again on Sunday at his parents' home to check out art. His grandfather was an artist and he has cases of paintings he'd like to find homes for. And he'll come back and visit next week.

His parents move in the summer (if their house sells) and so he'll be staying with us if/when he returns here. I told him he was welcome to stay here and use our home as a base while he visits with all his friends.

I'm tired after all that visiting so will head to bed now.

Dh texted me shortly after I reached Trivia to ask if I knew where his "Stent Cards" might be. I thought and thought but never came up with an answer. We were pretty sure he didn't take them north with him -he'd taken them all out of his wallet when he got a new one this winter. I started looking when I got home. I can say his cabinet (which I had been dreading cleaning out) is now done and they weren't there. Thought I found them in an oval bin with all my checking/banking/computer stuff -but it was a baggie of the photographs he'd had in there. Was giving up and thought of my one bag that I carry all our tax papers and all our VIP papers in. Looked in there and didn't see it, then lo and behold tucked along the bottom in a snack sized baggie was the stack of stent cards. In a very logical place when I think of it. I'll mail them priority to him tomorrow morning -should have them no later than Monday. He must have his card for his aortic valve replacement though -I think.

Now I can go to bed -nigh on to 11:30 and I have to be at church in the morning. Yi! Night
