Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M.

[kitkat]

Good morning! I love Simon and Garfunkel, Kittykatt. Thanks for the start (and the reminder to print!)
LAnn best of luck with appt.
helia - my car is 2 weeks overdue for a wash...

It might be the last day of Grammy camp... My youngest arrives shortly, then we get the others at noon.
I woke up with a very painful shoulder... either referred from my neck or a result of yesterday's workout. Trying heat b/c I have no better idea..
DDog is antsy b/c we have a bunny living in the backyard. Bunny has not learned that she will get chased out every time... Our mornings have changed: she used to go potty immediately, now she takes up to 30 minutes out there... and has second and third trips.
I hope bunny finds another home:)

Likely a day mostly at home:
will try to check off more items from my list. Maybe even a car wash!

Starting with MR.

Morning all. I was confused by the title not realizing that's a song lol. I'm not very well informed of other styles of music lol.

Well what to do today. I'm realizing I have got to get going on projects. First off jam. I need to make that today. Maybe getting ds to help think with the garden. Problem with going to dd in September is harvest time and frost threat. My garden is in full growth now. Except beans are probably just going to start growing them. Too late lol. Carrots are nothing yet. Tomatoes are very slow. There's cabbage and kale and spinach and lettuce good. Herbs and peppers are going to need to be brought in. I've got to do something with beets before we go too.


Basic tidy. Jam. Some gardening. Groceries. And bring some stuff to the thrift store and see if they have any newborn stuff. Still trying to find stuff for dd yet. And I've got to have an interactive day with ds figuring out what he still wants to do with school. Preferably without triggering him. He's happier and playing game out here. Helping with food again. Hopefully he can manage a school conversation. Understanding him is so hard.

And I have a new crochet project. A bumblebee blanket for baby. Struggling with yarn. Mom's yarn . Plus this stuff is only 5 years old and already discontinued so I can't get more. Hopefully I can make it big enough.

Lots to do. Going to start with a soak and get the jars out into the dw.

During the week I do a mile before I pick up Little Bit, helian, or I can’t get all my steps in. One of my friends has a sick dog and a vet appointment so I am waiting to see about lunch.

Hi, all. Our air pressure must be doing something creative, as I woke up with a migraine and the usual offerings have not appeased it. I am in the fortunate position of not having to function if I don't want to, so today is a coast-along day.

Wednesday
Gave Germane her heart pill
Took a pill and went back to bed
Brought in delivery of Germane’s food
Treat for Germane
Put on a pot of coffee
Folded/put away the laundry from the clothesline
Found an Away to put it, which is an accomplishment all on its own
Cleaned up after dog
Folded up the dog blanket on the drying rack, ready to change out Germane’s bed when she gets up

Kittykatt, thank you for your message. I have replied to it. It's sitting in the Outbox; I'm not sure how long it takes before it gets moved to Sent.

[L.Ann]

Hope you feel better soon, dogged. I had a lovely Indian dinner out with my friends.

Yes, I remember the Sounds of Silence as well. Then I checked, there is a different song: Wednesday Morning 3 a.m., that does fit the description and tell the story that kittykatt shared. I had never heard that one. I learned that there was an album with 12 songs; Wednesday Morning was the title of the album, Sounds of Silence was one of the 12 songs on the album. It might be fun to listen to some of the other songs as well. I liked their sound.

This morning started with a lovely coffee time with 2 df, one whose dh very recently died, the other having a 60 wedding anniversary tomorrow. Neighbors of my mother's (and therefore mine), frineds fo r many years.

I did get to exercise class for the first time in about three months .
I have crocheted about 1/6 of the border on my dsis2 birthday shawl.
And I watched a 45 minutes continuing education video
(my keyboard was acting funny for about 5 minutes, now doing OK, but I am tired and want to rest a bit.
(I have started a new osteoporosis medication and am wondering if fatigue is a side effect? Or am I just getting old?)

[Lauralind]

I did it. 10 pints of raspberry jam. And some shopping. My physio appointment that snuck up on me.i even found a bag of tiny baby clothes. Now I just have to figure out how to send it. Some of it is small enough if I bring it in a couple weeks it won't be used very long.

Today's tada list
Cleaned my showers
A load of laundry
Clean kitchen all the way
Crochet some
Physio
Groceries
Thrift store brought donate bags and bought baby things
Put it all away
Made 2 pots jam
Talk to dd for a bit


Now I gotta go put the roast on and finish what I started tidying.
