Today is the last day I have to wear the heart monitor. My skin will be grateful to get a break from the tape that sticks the sensor to me. I think I am to wear it tonight and can remove it in the morning. I will get it boxed up and when I go to exercise tomorrow, I will take the package and drop it off at Walgreens.
I walked to the court house and voted this afternoon. I carried an umbrella to shade me from the hot sun. It is a hot one out there today. There was only one contested contest on my Democrat ballet. Most of the positions didn’t have a democrat running.
I cleared off the dining room table this morning. That seems to be my catch all place in this house. It was good to get it off loaded. I also got my desk cleaned off and some paperwork done. I have a bad habit of setting things aside and forgetting to get back to them to take care of them.
I sent an email to my insurance agent and got car insurance for my new car. He sent back the insurance card. I have to wait for the title to come in before I can get the new license tags.
I ordered six meals from a company called Metabolic meals. They came in today. The amount of packaging it takes to keep things cold is troubling. Not sure I can continue to order them. I’ll see how good they are and then decide. They are expensive but about what you would pay for a meal at a restaurant. The ones I ordered are gluten free and low carb.
The sidewalk guys worked again today. His Bobcat is giving him trouble. One of the guys worked on it all morning. They all left before noon and then returned. The guy worked on it some more but had no luck. They are coming back this evening with a mechanic. They have the south sidewalk boarded and smoothed out and ready to pour. They are hoping to be able to get the bobcat fixed and everything ready so they can pour concrete Monday. They haven’t started the back patio – I trust they haven’t forgotten about that part of the job.
It is another hot one today. Not sure it reached 100 but it came close if it didn’t. Next week we are to be above 100 most everyday. Yuck!
I had a fresh tomato out of my neighbor’s garden for lunch. It was SO good but I am paying for it this afternoon. My body does not like me to eat fresh tomatoes. My stomach has felt like it is on fire all afternoon. Small price to pay for such goodness but I doubt that I will eat another one.
Need to get my freezer cleaned out and ready for beef later next week. I am only keeping 1/8 of it and it will all fit on one shelf. I think I have plenty of room if I reorganize things a bit. I always feel rich when my freezer is full of beef.
I finally reorganized the panty cabinet in the kitchen and made room for Kathy to have a shelf for her things. I am embarrassed I didn’t think to do this a long time ago. I have been working hard to decrease my backup supply of things as I don’t have lots of extra room in this house like I did before. I don’t like putting food on the back porch as that room isn’t insulated and things will freeze this winter.
I need to reorganize the shelves above the washer and dryer. I kinda threw things up there when I moved in and haven’t taken the time to put them in better order. I used to buy things in bulk but in this house I don’t have room for that. It is hard to tell what I have right now and I certainly don’t want to buy duplicates.
Tomorrow I have to be in town at 1:00 for exercises. Not sure I have anything else that I have to do. I don’t like going to town for only one thing but sometimes that is the way it is.
Sitting in a good head space today. It felt good to get a few things done and the house back in order. With such a small space, it doesn’t take much for it to look cluttered and clutter bothers me. Things felt easy for me today and it was a good day to get things done.
Grateful I have car insurance for the new car, grateful the dining room table is cleaned off, and grateful for the privilege of voting.
