So much for getting here everyday. I wonder how writing for fifteen minutes a day, or writing one paragraph a day would work. Perhaps it will lead to at least one post a week. Or it may make me less ramble-y, though I doubt that. I lose track of time. Not just in the getting-lost-in what-I’m-doing way, but also in a when-did-I do-that? and how-long-ago-was-that? way. Past time is ultra compressed for me. I think it’s because I simply omit…
Monday was a reasonable day. The weather her has been slightly cooler than usual, so working outside was pleasant. I watered the pots, dug out two runner plant roses and potted the to put at the rose trellis in front, scraped some of the moss off the driveway, and blew away the leaves that had gathered under the balcony. I also managed to fill and shock the spa. At some point we had a telephone conversation with a dietician. She’s…
Since I obviously haven’t gotten here to write anything interesting, I decided today that I would try to use this as sort of a journal to capture my days, interesting or not. This will provide a record of what I’m doing (which may be a dull as dishwater) and also possibly help me to write some more interesting things. We’ll see how it goes. I still have to get here regularly. Backtrack to Catch Up Sometime in May, Iqbal started…
I always think I want to get here and post something, but then end up doing something else. Oh, well. That’s the way it goes. This is just a disorganized post of what I have been doing. Despite the fact that time zips by too quickly and keeps going faster, looking at what I’ve actually managed to get done, I can’t say I’m unhappy. For so long it seemed like I planned to do a lot, but actually did very…
Yeah, it’s me. I’m here, today. At the rate I get things done I may be doing this post all day. That’s par for the course. (And I don’t even golf!) Distraction level seems to be 100% today. It’s been enough that I’ve forgotten all I wanted to say. The first distraction is my Flickr. I’m not a photographer. Most of my photos are mediocre at best. So, obviously, to me anyway, I don’t have a Flickr account to show…
Needless to say, I’m no more organized than ever. I’m just mentally meandering here. I have been trying to get more done. If my doctor could keep up with my Adderall Rx, that would be a big help. This week was lost because I had to do things I hadn’t planned and had no Adderall to help me refocus. I requested it in time, but he never seems to realize a controlled substance needs preauthorization every month. I don’t like…
Not much. A lot. I don’t know. At least that’s what it feels like. I was frustrated all summer because insurance wouldn’t pay for my Adderall. I guess they still aren’t, but finally my husband got it anyway. I think I got a tenth accomplished of what I had hoped. Pretty normal for me without medication. I received a notice that my wood chips had arrived, but there were no wood chips. Turns out the big trucks the tree trimmers…
I just finished reading “4 Colors You Should Never Paint Your Living Room.” I’m so happy that I don’t care what designers think. I LOVE my yellow living room. It’s bright yellow, but not neon. It’s absolutely the most cheerful living room, especially in the morning sunlight. But for me it’s really necessary because after about ten in the morning there is no sunlight. There’s nearly a whole wall of windows, but they face east with a covered balcony and…
That’s what kind of day it is. Mostly clear blue skies and not too hot. I haven’t been doing anything much interesting. Mostly garden chores and cleaning. I’m really bad at cleaning. It’s a combination of ADD and boredom. I get totally overwhelmed with big cleaning jobs like my sewing and art rooms. I have no ability to prioritize. But I’m learning. Or, at least, progressing. I have learned quite a bit from Cas at Clutterbug. I was cleaning off…
I can’t believe I haven’t posted since January 2!! Here’s a quick summary of what I remember at the moment. I was all set to get walking again when I ended up with plantar fasciitis. Besides walking, redoing the art room, cleaning the sewing room, and any garden/yard work was put on hold. After a month of not doing anything I couldn’t do while seated with my feet up, I got moving again. Still slowly. My foot is not 100%…
