From Google AI: The name "Turbo" has Latin origins, stemming from the word "turbo," meaning a spinning object or whirlwind. In modern language, it commonly refers to a turbine or turbocharger, which is a device that enhances an engine's power and speed by forcing more air into the combustion chamber. Therefore, the name Turbo carries connotations of speed, power, and dynamic energy.
Let's go with the dynamic energy definition today, or perhaps the whirlwind!
And go!

Re: Turbo Tuesday PWYC
Dh has worked out, not home yet. Garbage out and dog is fed.
I need to get started on screened porch while temp is moderate! I think first is sweeping/dusting for loose debris, then run the roomba? There's also the stains on the small patio between adjoining screened porch...I think I'll have to do some scrubbing there. There are low spots that hold water and dirt.

Re: Turbo Tuesday PWYC
Vroooooom! Thank you for starting us off today Twins' Mom!
I don't think I can get up to turbo-charged today. Dh wants to go to Costco to get me soda. I told him that the only soda there is in cans. I haven't had soda from a can in many years. I prefer either a 6 pack or a large plastic bottle. He seems to think they also sell 6 packs. I didn't want to argue, but I said I would just prefer to go to a local store in the tiny town where his doctor's appointment is later this morning.
Heck neither one of us could even think about what we want for supper tonight. In reality I'm not even hungry and my mind doesn't want to think ahead and actually plan what I might want to eat later.

Thanks for the start.
I'm up by 5:00 today
I need turbo coffee today.
My coffee pod holder that spins like a carousel has
some more caramel creme flavor added to it, my fav. is low and that's
the cinn. one. forgot those will get it next time I'm shopping there. I have vanilla,
Got breakfast blend instead it's a bit strong for my liking. sigh.
So it's not like I am out of anything.
It's cloudy outside here.
Some strange sounding bird sort of like a crow was swaking but flew off when I went out on the deck.
The trash is out at the curb.
BS # was great today.
Ddoggo has been fed & is napping now.
Dd luv the 1st day at her new job working for an arborist.
Dgd & great grandson are coming this afternoon so I need to spiff the place up before then.
Spiffed up the dining table.
Moved a few things around on the deck.

Re: Turbo Tuesday PWYC
Porch is swept around the outside edges so when the roomba goes at some point those will be relatively clean. I also dusted around the bottom of some of the stuff sitting out there for the dust/dog hair tumbleweeds. Since the rug is still damp from an afternoon shower yesterday I'm going to wait on the roomba and next up take a damp rag and perhaps brush around the edge for schmutz (dirt or unpleasant substance, yiddish.) Dh made me an omelet and I'm breaking to eat now.

Re: Turbo Tuesday PWYC
I don't think I could stand any more of that fun today. I've done one edge only, the worst one. Time will tell whether I do the rest. It is a screened porch, after all. The rug is still wet, I'm running the ceiling fan and a rotating fan to move some air. Dh took the covers off some of the cushions for the table chairs, and I'm trying washing them with detergent and bleach. I don't think they will come clean (why white? because they came with table) and even if they do I suspect that we won't be able to get covers back on. We'll see. I'm ready to let them go and go without if need be. The chairs are pretty comfortable. I cleaned the "potting bench" which I hope to be able to use Sunday as part of the bar set up.
Dh has gone out to lunch. I need to be in the shower before 2 p.m. because massage is at three. We're picking up take out tonight. The massage will be good for me, my back is sore after the core work yesterday. It was too much for me. Right now I'm just resting, cooling down.

Re: Turbo Tuesday PWYC
Good morning!
23 SHE cards completed
I am going to try cooking something I saw on yt yesterday. It is a cross between smash burger and taco.
THANK YOU FEDEX for returning today for the 2nd effort to get signature upon delivery. DH FBit arrived and I set it up. I'm excited to have new health data to analyze as I continue searching for clues about why he occasionally loses his memory for 12-24 hours.
I'm grateful to have two out of three. Speed isn't something I focus on. Whenever I try to go fast, I always end up getting hurt. I'm more of a turtle-speed kind of gal, steadily moving with purpose.speed, power, and dynamic energy.

Re: Turbo Tuesday PWYC
speedy, proficient, dynamic energy, power, and efficient - what a great way to start.
the OT is here for mom. Mom has been getting upset with me today so it's better for me to step back. She is as nice as can be to the helper and the other so that I need to step away.
Mom has been up from 5 on - I am sure she is getting tired.
watering outside right now - already cleaned the dog pools (they are small)
cleaned the bird baths
and time to feed the birds bc it is so hot.
have a great day all.
