Daily Check in thread for all!!! #146

hi ya joan. good to see ya posting.

and u as well trina. and you all. I got a mattress approved, the cheaper one by the charity. still 1400 bucks. it is a local made job, I just e-mailed the charity with some nice words, I was shocked that they approved the full amount. usually I have been the giver, however I am fortunate to have received some things the last few yrs. I will await the arrival of the cheque. just cleaning up and stuff. internet always dropping.

Hi all!
Karen - it is still dark here too. I have not been sleeping well for months. I guess I should just get use to being up hours before everyone else. I liked hearing how you said you enjoyed it. For some reason I get anxious when it happens.

Jamie- glad to hear it worked out! PA grandma, great postings as usual.
Hope that everyone has a good day!

Hey Jamie - The birds are singing here! Guess it is going to be a good day😊

Good morning all!!! Cloudy here today, suppose to get thunderstorms. We do need the rain though as always.

Hope4, thank you for your post. I do love mornings though I find myself going back to bed now and then as I seem to sleep real good then.

Jamie, I hope you are catching some Z's.

Derwood, good luck with the procedure today. We will be thinking about you.

Hugs to all!!!

Karen...

Hot and sunny,not a cloud in the sky, and the mountains reflecting clearly.

Karen, I hope all is well with you, your doggie, your hubbie, and all.

Hope-I used to have panic attacks as a kid when I couldn't get to sleep. I had insomia for much of my life--then after fibro, sleep has been like a train. Do something boring when you wake up--recent research points to the electronic screen activating the brain,rather than soothing it. Breathing exercises help as well.

Good luck Derwood. I have had similar lady exams on the cervix--and it really hurt!

F27--oat grass dies really easily. My girls used to love it. I wish I had a cat to grow it for.*heavy sigh* Hope all is well with you up in the north.

Jamie-a new mattress rocks! We have a waveless water bed--and love it. OMG-Wednesday's stage made me so sad. Nairo just ran out of steam. Teejay did as well. Sky team is so strong that someone will have to make a big mistake or crash.

At library--some job apps--then I plan to pick up a sandwich and head out to the garden. I have a melon almost ripe--and tomatoes starting to go red--Our hot sunny rain-less weather is great, except they need more water.

This weekend is the 15 year anniversary.

Be well all--I go to submit resumes.

Is it getting enough sun? I had to hide it from my Floydie as well--she would pull it up by the roots. Lucky, jumping was not her thing, so I could put it safely out of reach. I had a small flat sack--kind of like a half-sized pillow case,that I used to fill with dried catnip. The girls loved it--except Catter could get a bit aggressive, as much as a 5 pound cat could.

Sometimes you do have to fire a doc. Glad you went through the leg-work of finding another.

Brought home chard and more zucchini,plus some lemon balm and basil. Got desperate enough that I sent my resume to community college looking for adjuncts. *sigh*

Night,all.

Thank you, disability equal-access.

That made me giggle, real hard.

I git biscuits and strong coffee going. I have a travel type on, and I do 4 tea spoons, darn sluggish turtle. listening to some iron maiden, my speakers crackle as the wires are damaged. been for a walk, had coffee first and trugged up the muddy path to the chemist. I had an old lamictal lying around, I went up and I got mel, she does the blister packs and probably had a late night i'd say, as I said there is something wrong with my tablet, can't see the screen. she looked at it, then me and laughed. oh Jamie... I said is my hair stickin' out everywhere, yep, I walked ou with a smile. internet down, then up.

hang in there jess.

Good luck at the dr's office today, Karen!
Hope all are doing OK here. Going to go get some dirt and pots for my seeds😊 I am excited. It has been to long without tending some growing things.

Kind of low energy today, though. Trying to decide how much to push myself to try to get out and meet people since we moved, and whether to let myself just rest a while and get used to things. There are a couple of group events that are of interest, but not near where we are living (so a long drive).

Have a good day everyone!

Just got blood work to do. Fasting, ugh... I am bad about getting to that quickly. I hate to fast, but I can go in as early as 7:00 if need be.

I am sorry about your plants Myself. I wonder if an animal trampled your zucchini. Peppers seem to be a bit tempermental at times.

Thanks Hope, I think if you kind of just do what you want, you will find a balance in work and rest. Don't push yourself too hard, but do get out or whatever and do things... There is a happy medium there, we just have to find it.

It is very hot here today. In the 90's. Not comfortable outside at all. I got shopping done, prescriptions picked up and now I am going to kick back and go slow the rest of the day.

Take care all...

Hugs, Karen...

I hope August is better Joan. Very hot here too. Too hot to go outside.

Hope you have a good rest of the day!

Hugs, Karen...

I just finished filling out all my forms for my new clinic. Twenty pages of questions with a whole page about poo. As I have no children, it's not a topic that gets explored in our house often. Who'd a thunk it could merit a whole page?

Looking forward to the weekend. One social obligation, and a plan to sleep in not once, but twice. Imana try to sleep like I'm 17 again.

That sounds like a good idea, M09. Mrs. 27 and I haven't had a chance to 'homework' in a while. ;-) Congrats on the anniversary. What is the traditional 15th anniversary gift? Paper? Ray Bans? Hot dogs?

Have a fun weekend all.
