Critterfixer Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 My life probably needs a laugh track. I managed to actually cook a dinner today, and finished some editing. Other than that, I have made slugs look active. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiewindmomma Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I ignored my to-do list for today (except for the orthodontist and hc appointments for ds) and went shopping. On my way to the orthodontist I realized that both my shirt and trousers were stained and worn thin and that I really couldn't put off shopping much longer. I bought a new funeral dress on clearance. I also purchased a few new shirts and a sweater. I didn't own much in the way of winter weight clothing. I was realistic in what I purchased--everything is soft and comfy and perfect to pair with leggings or jeans. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went back to bed for 45 minutes then scrambled out the door to get to the library and Aldi before the heavens opened up their fury upon the earth. I just barely made it. Apparently, I cannot resist buying 12 pints of blueberries when the price falls below $1.30/pint. Some critter is eating my shasta daisy plants. Dd11 thinks it's the squirrels. Buy all of the blueberries!! (They freeze nicely). I lost my shasta daisy transplants. The ones that are in my original pot are still ok.

Have you guys had the corn dish with cream cheese and green chilis? I'm kinda craving that now... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in my single days, especially when dd was with her dad, I did a lot of reading and movie watching and hated stopping to cook dinner (I really hate to cook) but needed to eat and didn't have the money for take-out. More than once dinner was a can of corn microwaved so it was warm. Usually not creamed corn (although sometimes), just plain corn with some butter and garlic thrown on top. There's a reason dh does ALL the cooking in our house. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slache Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Hi. Busy day. Girlfriend has the week off and came over to play. We're going painting on Friday. It's my 3rd day working out and I cannot impress how absolutely wonderful I feel but my cervix is not fairing well so I'm taking tomorrow off. I am very sad. I don't care if I work out, I don't even like it, but it's the only way I can feel healthy, emotionally and physically, on a daily basis. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 (edited) I'm going to try to fix a cut I made to my manuscript yesterday that was too deep, and to remove an addition that tells too much. Then I have art to soothe me. I'm in the danger zone on revisions now, where every cut could affect something important, and so I know I'm getting close. Yay! And Boo! Because it's a pain in the behind. Other than that, I am pretty much close to the end of this revision. I am through the major cutting section (first third of the book) and the last chapters only need some tweaking. ETA: I'm trying positive thinking today. It's really a complete mess and I will probably be ripping my hair out by the end of next week, but I'm trying to keep calm and keep cutting...

Susan in TN Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I'm feeling on edge this morning. Nevertheless, I am not eating from the bowl of chocolates even though they are calling me with promises of calm and comfort. I need to finish updating the chore cards today. And poor Wally has been neglected for two weeks. I think I see a marshmallow under the sofa. Part of chore cards will include preparing the floors for him to do his work.
