A quiet day at home. Still feeling much better and allowing my energy to return on its time table – not mine.
I painted three boards for Jim today. He is going to use them to replace some decking boards. The new deck paint is a shade or two lighter than the old but hoping they will blend in and not stand out too much.
Baked a double batch of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies to take to Nicole when I go see her Thursday. Tomorrow I need to bake a batch of Snickerdoodles for Jim. Good thing I enjoy making cookies.
Am getting my hair cut tomorrow morning. I finally got hold of my hair dresser. It always is a good day when I get my hair cut.
I got to stay home all day today – yay! Those are my favorite days. Jim made a trip to the hardware store to get some sort of saw that will cut the deck boards. I never realized there were so many different types of saws.
I have a broody hen that likes to sit on the nest and she gets cranky when we take her eggs out from under her. As I don’t have a rooster it doesn’t do much good to allow her to try to hatch infertile eggs. I lift her up and put her outside. Jim leaves the eggs under her. I told Jim I don’t allow anything to come between me and my eggs!
I’m making a list for my Costco run on Thursday when I go to KC. I haven’t been for a bit so the list is rather long. Maybe I can start going again monthly although with the rise in the number of COVID cases I’m not so sure I want to be around that many people. I am fully vexed but I don’t trust those that aren’t to wear a mask.
I finished another book yesterday and started another one. I hope the library has their book sale soon as my reading supply is starting to get low. I still have enough books for a couple of months but they won’t last through the winter. I have been taking the ones I read to the little library box in Strong City.
I laid down to take a nap this afternoon but didn’t fall asleep. I will take that as another sign my body is healing. I am still tired a lot but the need for sleep seems to be easing up a bit. It will take me another little bit before my full energy returns.
Grateful I got to stay home all day today, grateful for healing that is happening in my body, and grateful for used books to read.
