Winston Apple Wednesday @ TDD - C&C

[Lauralind]

Ok hopefully this works. I mention it in pwyc . They have had it too. Usually works after a few tries. They think it's a server glitch. Hopefully it will straighten out.

I won't comment too individually so I can get through it cause I have been having issues if I get distracted while typing. I put my phone down till the screen turns off all my typing disappears. Gotta get this one through in one go. I tried save draft and I didn't know where it saved.

Anyway I have lots to do today. Going to try to keep my day for myself. Try is the key word. Of course i get a headache on the day I want to get stuff done.

Kitty update. Well stella is going to the vet later. I guess we were just trying to save the cost but apparently she needs her other food. Its so expensive. She's having issues again and has been caught in the act the bath mat incidents are her. Usually only little dribbles. Lucky? Well I'm going to ask about that when I'm there.

I bought another litter box. And another brand of litter. Going to use both kinds in the boxes. Especially side by side and see if they prefer the other one. Put the new box in the main bathroom where they keep having most of the issues. Move the hallway box into our bedroom closet. Maybe I will split up 2 in one room or use the Rubbermaid at the hallway too. Give them lots of options? If it keeps up that way I am at a loss.

I want to wash my floors everywhere. Redo the boxes. Get some more raking outdoors done. Finish my blanket that has 2 and a half roes left. And vet plus errands in town. And some rest time.

Judging from the downforeveryoneorjustme.com website (yes, I had problems getting in too) there's been a lot of reported problems all over the US hosted sites, so this one was likely caught in a larger problem!

Anyway, waving to helia, kittykatt, lauralind, kitkat, Dogged and Smile*Lee!

Home from work. I actually left 10 minutes early instead of 2 hours late today! Go me! Got groceries on the way home - I still haven't been able to sit down with DH and make a plan of action for the four day trip. Will we be cooking? Will we be eating out? Making day-long trips (so no cooked lunches, but pack something)? He just never thinks in terms of "we need to prepare X" Anyway, we will need food when we get back and for the week to come, so it's not like it would go to waste! Also, absolute "MUST" is doing my taxes tonight. They're due Friday, but I don't want to work on them during our get-away!
I've had a nice glass of homemade ice coffee and am ready to attack my list!

Good morning! Good afternoon!

Thanks for the applicious start and website info, trissie. Get those taxes done so you can play and enjoy your long weekend.

Dogged, glad you’re in. You’re our canary in the coal mine I suppose, I wasn’t even aware of an issue before you posted on the old board, then it wouldn’t let me in. If I’m persistent and keep at it, it will let me in. Hope it’s easily fixed.

Kittykatt, is Freddie settled down now that he’s home and got his vet visit out of mind?

Smile, Ygg! Up early and moving while I’m lollygagging and in the same time zone (I think).

Helia, I’m truly happy your dmom is in such a good place. How’s the jogging? Are you doing c25k or something else?

Hi KitKat, remind me where you are again with such cold temps? Are you dog training for basics or tricks?

Laura, good luck with all your attempts to make kitty peace. Hope vet has answers.

Hi LAnn!

I’ll make a list next visit, for now:
Bible
Clean kitchen
Get roast cooking
Feed animals
Spot clean floors
Post and work on list
Hope all of us can post easily when I get back.

I did couch potato to 5K years ago, like almost 15 years ago, Bama. It was a fun program! Now, I just jog on my own. I procrastinate doing it, but I always feel good afterward and usually during it. I only run about 2 - 3 miles/ run right now. I'd like to build that up over the summer. I did a half marathon 7 years ago, but I don't think I'll ever do another one. Good luck with your list!!
WTG trissie! Glad you're looking out for your family's meals. Dh is kind of like that too.
My dson and F's kitten has similar issues, Lauralind. I don't know if they've resolved them or not, but I think they use different litter for her. She's maybe 6 months now. They have an older cat too.

I got here first try this time. We'll see if it posts.

It's 12:30. I've gone to the dentist, communicated with Mom's Dr., prepped for class today -- might tweak one thing, and gotten groceries. That's good for me!!

I'll get in some qt before I leave for work - and maybe strip the bed. Once it's stripped, I'm forced to put clean sheets on it.

Next:
- some qt
- back exercises - if time
- spiff myself
- otd by 1:10 - I think I'm parking on campus

Later:
- back exercises
- some qt
- strip bed
- payroll: start GGT
- check NH re: transportation
- spiff self and gather stuff for payroll
- 1:30 - 3:30 payroll: teach AAS D4
- JOG
- laundry: sheets, towels
- anything else from brain dump list?
- dinner: lemon pasta, saute'ed chicken, roasted veggie
- after dinner clean up
- update health apps
- duo
- update goodreads?
- read book

[Lauralind]

Ds is off to school. Kitchen clean. Next? Floors. Need a thorough mop.

Apparently I can't get away with a day to myself. At least dad might bring mom here for a bit. He knows when my days off are. Usually I end up dropping all my plans in the morning when I might be likely to be more productive. Takes till lunch or more out there. We'll see. He wants to be some things in town. I can either keep doing everything and she can watch or I'll make some cookies. Maybe that's what I'll do. Keep going on floors and make gingersnaps if she comes.

Hi, all. I am up and waiting for H. to call me about having the car towed. I finally decided that I was ready deal with the car. It's been sitting in my parking spot since the brakes went out in March. I'm silly, I know, walking to the grocery store or doing with new groceries if it's raining, when I could be using the car if I would just get it repaired. There's still plenty to eat in the apartment, but I can see my pantry stocks going down as I only buy what I can fit in the granny cart.

Enjoy your beautiful weather, kittykatt. We had warm weather yesterday, but with heavy rain, and today it's clear but near freezing. April in Canada.

WTG on getting the fridge done, Smile*Lee.

I'm glad that you got past the error messages, helia. I'm hoping that my post will go through. Your dmother's new home sounds like it has a much nicer atmostphere than her former home, and she's better off being closer to you.
Hooray for boring and quick dental appointment.

Hi, kitkat. Isn't the weather crazy?

I remember the days of multiple cats, laurlind. I had two cat boxes, and all cats wanted to be the only cat to use all boxes. They would wake me up to clean out the box if another cat used it, LOL.
I can relate to the expensive vet food. I'm thankful that Germane is such a little dog. The vet changed her food again our last visit, and she did do better on the hydrolysed protein, but by the end of the case she decided that she didn't like it and went off her food. We have taken away so much of what makes a life pleasant for a dog that her canned food is literally her only treat. When I offered her food from the previous vet food, she danced in delight, so we are back to that.


What a cool website, trissie. I took note of it for future problems.

You have a lot on your plate, trissie. Is this your last day to get your taxes done? I'm thankful that Canada has streamlined the process of filling out our taxes for people who have straightforward returns. Many of us are questioning why employees have to fill out the returns at all, since the information is already sent to the government by our employers.

Hi, L.Ann. I see that you have packed a lot into today already.

LOL, you know what happens to the canary in the coal mine, Bama?

Woo hoo--H. just called me, and we have arranged our tow for the car for tomorrow, so I can now arrange the rest of my day.

[L.Ann]

Hi, L.Ann.

I have washed some dishes, eaten breakfast, lallygagged a bit on Etsy (it turns out that coupons are my kryptonite) and now I plan to convince Germane to come for a walk with me. We'll walk up and by her some dog food.
