Got up and made Jim a double batch of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Glad to have that project done. A double batch will last him almost a month.
Made the left over pot roast meat from last night into roast beef salad. I makes a good snack to have around.
Am working on making face masks. Got another 15 or so completed. I am trying to get 50 made so I can take them to the Sr. Center in Emporia. I promised the Director I would make some for them when I got home from CO. I have over 40 made at this point so getting close to being able to deliver my promise.
Went out and finished weeding the swing set. Jim had done most of it yesterday. Then went around and weeded two more flower beds in the front of the house. Jim came out and helped me finish them up and he hauled the weeds down to the compost pile. I need to go back over all the beds and get the left over weeds pulled but they are now recognizable as flower beds. Ran into some sticky, prickly weeds in the north bed. Ouch!
Still haven’t made it down to finish up the chicken coop but we still have 11 days. We will get to it – just not sure when.
I only took three calls last night on the Hot Line. All three were slow responders so the conversations seemed to take a long time. I really wanted to do two more calls so I could level up but I ran out of patience and logged off. I worked three hours instead of the scheduled two. I might log on tonight and see if I can take two more calls. One of the three calls was rewarding for me but the other two felt like I didn’t make much difference. One never knows what the real story is and what the rest of the story will be however.
The full moon is Monday and I am feeling the effects today. I am cranky and grumpy. Doing my best to stay busy and not sit and think as I am over thinking everything today. Sometimes the full moon does that to me. I know what triggered me this afternoon and I need to let it go.
I have two letters I need to write this evening. I am going to attempt to get back to writing a letter a day. I so enjoyed that project and missed it while I was in Estes Park and didn’t have access to a printer.
I need to find a YouTube to learn how to thread my weed eater. I haven’t done it for a year and have forgotten how to do so. I really dislike using that thing but enjoy the results of doing so. Sometimes I have to suck it up and do what I don’t like to do.
Ordered some new bathroom rugs last night. Two of the rugs in the bathroom are stained and look dirty all the time. I have meant to order them several months ago and kept forgetting to do so. I looked on-line last night and found what I was looking for at a reasonable price. Trust they are a good quality.
Grateful the weeds are out of the flower beds, grateful the cookies are made, and grateful I know what triggered my grumpy mood.
