Tagen and I put Ellie, the fat cat, in the laundry room last night so we could catch her easily for her spa day at the vet today. I got up at 7:00 and put her in the carrier so Michelle could take her in. Ellie complained most of the night about being shut inside all night.
I picked her up at 4:00 this afternoon. They shaved her all over except for her head and tip of her tail. I told them I hope she doesn’t die like the last one I had shaved. They told me her hair should start growing in within a week and be fully back within a month. That never happened with the other one so am wondering what happened. The other one must have been sick. Ellie told me all about her spa visit on the way home and I don’t think she was impressed with her new look.
I stopped at Walmart and picked up a prescription while I was in town. I also stopped at Dillon’s and picked up some more fruit snacks. I had forgotten to order those and the kiddos were all but out. I picked up Ellie and came home.
I haven’t done much else today. It is too hot to go outside. Tagen did the chicken chores and brought up three eggs. I have gotten my second dozen from this group now. The bowl full of eggs on the counter is so pretty. The eggs range in color from blue/green to light brown to a light rose color.
I price shopped propane today thanks to help from my neighbor. When I called the company I get propane from and told them the price I could get if I switched suppliers, they met the new price. It will save me $140 on my contract price. The other company is to send me something in writing that has the price and I take that in to my company and presto – they write out a new contract which will save me $140. That was easy!
I sent a text to my plumber and asked if there was any way they could come out next week and install the new kitchen faucet and fix the refrigerator water line. They said no problem they will be here. Ummm….., do I bet on that? This issue has been ongoing since late March. Maybe they will be here? Maybe not?
I’m grilling hot dogs for dinner tonight and warming up some left over cheesy potatoes. That will be quick and easy. I will probably bring home a whole roasted chicken from Costco tomorrow night and call that dinner. I’m on a quick and easy roll! It is too hot to do much cooking or to turn on the oven.
Tomorrow I am going to Wichita to get the screen replaced on my iPhone at Best Buy and then making a quick stop at Costco. It will be good to get away for the day.
No plans for the weekend. We haven’t gotten any more moving done so hoping we might be able to get another couple of loads this weekend but we shall see.
Sitting in a good head space. Realizing the lessons I learned last year are being used now. It is interesting to see things from a different perspective and understand what happened last year. I’m grateful I learned what I did as it has been helpful now.
Grateful Ellie is back home styling a new look, grateful for the propane price drop thanks to my neighbors, and grateful for life lessons (easier done after the lesson is over).
