Re: Hot Hot HOT Tuesday PWYC
I couldn't find the panel for my neighbors water. I ended up taking buckets of water over to their pots. pretty easy and it's done for today!
watered all my stuff
played with dogs with the ball and the hose - they love water!!!
what I could do: weed my veg garden and plant some seeds
Instead:
I think I need to do work to eliminate my visual clutter.
finish going through my paperwork - superficially
glad that the body work makes you feel balanced! I have to remember that d twins! maybe that's why I feel at peace after heavy work in the garden.
hi d dee. yay for being home!!!
I agree with his cardiologist that she/dr. should have directed him to the hospital. I have never heard of not taking someone to hospital for that. I wonder if you could have your cardiologist talk to your gp instead of you being in the middle. praying for your dh!!! praying everyone gets on the same page.
hi d Nancy. stay cool!
yay on your successful planning.
I am doing swish and swipe as well.
d lady you are on top of so many things - it's hard with all the changes that happen with the boosters with different ages.
oh my goodness - I could not imagine 110 degrees. praying for rain for you.
that's wonderful that you two will have time together tonight!!!
I wouldn't be comfortable with dd at her mom's house alone. the country it is so different - dd younger used to visit our neighbor down the road all the time. (a beef farm). The kids had a ball running around their farm and our woods. Their grandma had a farm right across the road from them. Always fun! lots of kids together.
boy do I want to go adventuring today. I think I will wait until Thursday. I have to get a present for d niece who just bought a house (25 years old). She is having an open house party at the end of the month. She also just got a new dog from the rescue place.

Re: Hot Hot HOT Tuesday PWYC
A very happy anniversary. To LadyM and DH. Something to celebrate for sure.
I am hot here. It is 95 now. But I've been busy, moving around. Just sat down to take a rest.
Dee, sorry DH's Drs. do not agree on treatments. It makes one question who's right.
Had a busy desk day (hour or so) early this morning. Sent off for the suv license tag, a pile of receipts and appointments to deal with. I feel organized again.
Laundry powder put in smaller containers. I can't get those big boxes down off the shelf.
DH was out helping some people. He came back pretty unhappy. Was unable to get both his compressor and his cement machine working. A lot of his equipment is very old.
While he was away I mopped the living areas of the house. He doesn't help much with the floors since he fell. I don't mind except I have to be mindful of when I can mop so he won't slip again. I taped the big printer box shut and got it up on top of cabinet in the garage. Was going to put it up in the attic but I was Unable to get the pull down ladder all the way safely so this will have to do. Their guarantee says if we ever have to return it it has to go back packed up exactly how we got it. Sheesh.

Re: Hot Hot HOT Tuesday PWYC
Hi...
Happy anniversary to you LadyM and your DH. Think you made the right choice to leave soon to be 14 DS. I haven't begun to think agout my booster shot and probably won't do so till the fall.
Dee...dr's sure can be confusing at times. It was the same with me when one dr told me one thing and the other told me something else. Wish they would get their acts together.
I have had an exciting day. Am researching my former husband's family. Not my son's father. My former husband's mother side of the family are Italian and came over here to the US after WWI. I've done my best to find out more about his grandmother, but to be honest, I don't speak Italian
On a whim, I decided to look into his father's side. My former husband and his father didn't get a long very well so he didn't really know much about his fathers side. Oh my goodness, what treasures I discovered!!!
Turns out his 9-10 generation G-father came over on the Mayflower and was one of the 41 signatories of the Mayflower Compact. and he was also an assistant to the governor of the Plymouth Colony through 1636. I was pretty blown away with that until I read an article that directed me to read about Stephen Hopkins in the Wikipedia. He was the only Mayflower passenger with prior New World experience having been shipwrecked in Bermuda in 1609 and arriving at Jamestown, Virginia in May 1610. Hopkins left Jamestown in 1614 and returned to England.
Now none of this may float your boat, but I have a decree in History with a concentration in new World History, especially around Jamestown and the Plymouth colony so it was amazing to me to read all about this fellow. I actually tripped on all this information by following my former husbands family.
Need to take a breath and make a trip to the grocery store. I am attending my first wine club gathering...you can bring whatever you want to drink...at a home here in my community tomorrow night, I need to bring something to share and eat. Hopefully I will be able to start networking with these women and start to make new friends.
Waving to ya'll....yes it hot here, but not nearly as hot as it is in Mesa...116* and ya know I don't miss that at all

Re: Hot Hot HOT Tuesday PWYC
its too hot outside for me - I took 2 hours off doing nothing.
I think I have to really get my home to work for this season of life. I got tired of the mundane work. I had an a ah ha moment. I thought I could wait until fall to do this put away but having these areas cluttered from the work done in march is affecting me by cluttering my mind. I just realized how this visual clutter is blocking me mentally. I am going to have to work on finishing the basement. knowing the stuff is there is bogging me down.
knowing that I have to do it makes me feel better. I can then work on the routines bc I know I will make time soon to get rid of this chaos
-----------------------------------------------------------
visual clutter:
this is the clutter sitting out on my kitchen counters and table - why is it out? what was my purpose and what can I do with the things now.
item -------- Why did I convince myself to leave it out? ------ what can I do?
cook book: I thought it would make me cook meals - make a meal plan once a week - put the book away until I am able to make a plan: plan easy
garden magazines / I want to mail them to sis in law / put in car for Thursday
olive oil / I may need it / put it away
birthday container / too lazy to put away / put it away
dusting and washing pads think I will use it put it away under the sink
large Shakespeare book / I loved the book and thought someone must want it. / no one wants it. let it go.
bona containers. meant to put it away put it away
jar opener / " " " " " - out since Sunday / put it away
stiffer duster wipes and duster / I want to dust (from last week) / put it away until I dust
misc. kitchen stuff / no reason to have it out /
paper work on kitchen table. / I thought I would get to it /
mop / it has been out - no reason / I need to vacuum and rinse daily - having the
mop out doesn't mean I do that.
sorry I needed to write down the above to see I need to really see what I leave out. time for put away without making it hard. timer on. it took 10 minutes

Re: Hot Hot HOT Tuesday PWYC
Easiest mold I ever had made for my nightguards. I'm prone to gagging and it really went well.
I did a return too since it's near the mall.
Home again trying to figure out the undercabinet lighting.
