Thyme Thursday

[Bama]

Wtg, everyone!

Yay, Germane! Could you teach my knotheads something, anything?
Dogged and helia, thanks for the reminder to donate, it truly is the right thing to do, I just get stuck in the memories or what ifs or I might need this…

Helia, I would totally obsess if I had 2 scales, I’d weigh on both daily just to compare and wonder which is right lol.

Kitkat, you were and still are a lot more dedicated than I am. That is my March goal. Some sort of movement. The game is just popular, I bought 2 by mistake so I’d still have one if I donate one…still donwanna.

LAnn, hope the pharmacy/insurance is a done deal now.

Good points on selling vs donating, kittykatt. Plus I live over 15 miles from the nearest post office so another reason not to worry about it.

Done:
Up!
Kinda got new scale working, plus app - not sure I like it yet
Spot cleaned foyer, kitchen
Pets fed, watered
Litter scooped
Counters wiped down
Roast slow cooking on stove
Breakfast ate and logged
Closet - hung up clean clothes
Bathroom - wiped down, tidied
Self - weigh/bmi, tried a face peel and oil moisturizer, I’m not peeling but my face feels nice so that’s a win, whitened teeth
Kitchen - cleaned out 3 utensil drawers and touched the dish towel drawer, not really sure about keep/donate the towels so on hold but still made progress, clean out fridge leftovers
Laundry - wash my clothes
Eating popcorn for a snack/late lunch

Kittykatt, I would imagine that when you are selling collectibles, the finishing touches can make a big difference to the sales.
That was a day with more excitement than you asked for. I'm glad that it ended happily.

Bama, Germane is offering a five-step plan to improve your food and make your human start cooking your dinners. She'll be happy to share, LOL.
I can never point my finger at anyone who has trouble shedding their belongings, with all of the clutter that I have to go through. You do what works for you.

WTG on getting the insurance number sorted out, L.Ann!

[kitkat]

WTG LAnn - I often find housework / cleanign a lot easier than those calls...
Dogged my old instructor was into functional fitness: getting up and down in a chair (or squat), getting down on the floor and up... etc. I find that comes in handy... I try to convince dH to practise - with little success...
Bama I try hard... Since I have pup, I call her my cardio workout. (Insufficient some days but still.) I do the weights regularly at the gym. No one was more surprised than I when I got the osteoporosis diagnosis... Imagine if I was not doing it?
Kittykatt - what a day for you...
Pup is fine - thanks for asking. I worry ... b/c that's what I do. Also, their paws can bleed quite a bit and on the snow, it looked scary...
However she shows no sign of discomfort - I see nothing... will keep an eye on it.
Dogged are you saying Germane has trained you?

Off to make dinner for humans and canine.

So glad dfriend E is OK, Kitty. That sounds like a scare.
The teddy bear picnic sounds so welcoming, kitkat. Enjoy the little one. Or little ones?
WTG with the insurance, L Ann!
It's good to be aware, Bama.
Doggedly, I want a copy of Germane's book too! LOL! Are you feeling OK? (I read "took a pill and went to bed.") SO many people here are sick; stuff is really going around.

Why are there always so many guests at this site? Who is popping in and reading? The last few times I've been here, I've noticed 20+ guests here. There are 28 now. Are they bots?

Next:
- read chapter dh sent me
- get ready for bed

Later:
- moisturize feet
- update health apps
- read for fun?

kitkat, I cannot deny that Germane has been more successful at training than I have.

I'm okey, helia. Just my arthritis acting up, and laundry tends to be hard on it. I have it all hanging now, so I can go to bed and put my feet up.
I think that you are right; the guests are probably bots. Credit to our administrators that we aren't seeing get-rich-quick schemes and such posted here.

Good night!
