The Newsletters left for the post office by 9:15 this morning. Always good to have that project done. I finished them last night.
A guy came this afternoon to look at my bamboo floors. He is going to work up an estimate and get back to me. Down in the barn are some left over floor pieces. He took several with him and is going to play with them and see how they will refinish. The floor pieces actually came refinished. He said he could match them. The living room needs sanded down but the rest of the dining room and kitchen just need a new coat of finish on them. I have no idea how much it might cost. Guess I will find out tomorrow. He told me he also does decks so if he does the job and does a good job I will have him bid my decks. They need finishing too.
It has been a beautiful day on the prairie today although the wind has been in a bit of a hurry. It warmed up to 50 which is much better than yesterday was. It is to get even warmer the next couple of days. Bring on Spring!
My Match guy sent me a picture of his daffodils in full bloom. He lives 200 miles south of me. Spring is creeping northward.
I got a good night’s sleep last night. I was sleeping really good this morning when the alarm went off. I almost didn’t get up. As usual though when I get more sleep than normal I am sleepy today.
Michelle sent me a note. She had cleaned out Tagen’s closet and has lots of hand me downs for me. I may end up with a whole new wardrobe if he has things that fit.
I started a packing list and realized I will need to take some T-shirts as the weather may turn warmer than I have been used to. I may need to go get some new T-shirts to take. The ones I have from last summer are too big for me now.
The dogs were MIA this morning again but came home this afternoon. I am at a loss as to what to do next. I thought I had fixed their collars. Am starting to think they have figured out it only hurts for a second and they bust through the boundary lines. Damn! They are going to get run over if they keep running away. I hate to tie them up but may have to for a bit.
Roxy turned three years old today. I thought by now she would have settled down and be content to stay home. Guess I was wrong!
I bought a big jar of cashews at Costco Wednesday. I wanted the 2 oz individual packages but they didn’t think have any. I weighed out 2 oz portions and put them into sandwich bags. I can’t stop eating them if they aren’t already portioned controlled for me. I like to travel with nuts for a quick energy pick me up if we skip lunch.
My house sitter is coming over tomorrow so she can learn how to do chores. I so appreciate her. Maybe she will have better luck keeping the dogs home.
I have a tax shift in the morning. I was going to get critter feed afterwards but will want to get home as the house sitter is coming in the early afternoon. I have to go to town Monday for a doctor’s appointment so will get it then.
I started cleaning house today but have a lot more to clean. It is amazing how dusty the house gets, even in the winter time with the house closed up.
I have enjoyed staying home all day today. I’m glad the floor guy was a little slow in telling me when he was coming as that made me stay home. My soul needed a day at home to recharge and refill. This week has been way too busy for my liking. It has gone by quickly though. Haven’t even had time to miss my Match guy much. It will be good to see him Tuesday afternoon though.
Grateful for the beautiful sunshiny day today, grateful the Newsletter is done and in the mail, and grateful for the good sleep I got last night.
