Hi, all. It is a busy, busy day here, and I am late to the party.

trissie, I have a secret and nefarious plan to dive in before you to start Saturday's thread so that I can get Stompin' Tom Connors in there. twirling my mustachios and laughing in villain fashion

Thanks, kittkatt and L.Ann and helia and trissie. I think that I started down this road about 3 years ago, but kept running into roadblocks which would sidetrack me and then I would forget about it for a while, etc. etc. I'm so pleased to have it actually done, and now I'm excited to find out how much I qualify for. The big goal is to cut down on how much I work, so that I can go to part time or casual to get more time off.

We have rain here too. I am very grateful that the car is working, as it is Errands Day.


I hope that the exercise class works out, L.Ann.

I hope that you have good weather to work in the garden with dh today, laurlind.

I hope that the preparations for your trip to the cabin goes well, Gma. You are keeping ddog comfortable, which is what matters the most to her.

Hi, lucylee and Peaches.

Time to spiff myself and get on with my day. I'll walk Germane if it's not raining, and then start on errands.

[L.Ann]

Yay for surviving the day, Trissie. Your list tires me out just looking at it, GMA! Fingers crossed the retirement income works in your favor, Dogged.

Thanks, L.Ann. I live in hope. LOL @ jumping in rain puddles. Best way to make use of a rainy day.

LOL, trissie. You more than earn any sleep that you get. And I am clearly not ready for archvillain status.

Hi, Peaches.

Wednesday
Mini grooming session for dog
Went down a rabbit hole trying to find out how much my pension will be. The website appeared to be cooperating, but when I saved the page of my contributions that is needed for the calculations, it quietly stripped off all of the amounts before saving, and when I tried to get the website to calculate it for me, it told me that I am already receiving the pension.
Went on to book Germane’s next grooming just before my trip to db’s house.
They have changed their web site and after an unpleasantly finicky session, I went down in flames on the vaccination information. It wanted the expiry date but wouldn’t say for which vaccination, (I assume rabies but it might be bordetella) and they wanted me to attach a copy of the vaccination certificate which means either setting up the scanner that is currently boxed up or taking a picture on my phone and transferring up to Google Docs and then back down to my computer before I can attach it, and that means that I would have to actually find it first.
Threw up my hands and called the grooming salon and left a message.

You have done a lot today, L.Ann. I am just home from shopping.

Hey, kittykatt, I found savoy cabbage in the store. The produce in our stores isn't great, but I bought potatoes, onions and the savoy cabbage, so I can get a slow cooker going. I came away without meat again, but Boursin was on sale so I have some very fancy cheese. And hummus. We shall not starve.
