Just another day in the life

I apologize to my regular readers for the interruption to broadcasting. It seems that as I was on the treadmill last night I was suddenly just done with the day. Didn’t even come out and turn off my computer, just went straight to bed.

It was another lovely connection kind of day. I am going to try to focus on what is positive although…

I had previously scheduled an older gent a few doors down to come and replace my horrible kitchen window. I had bought the replacement almost two years ago on sale and it was time. As he is 73 I had agreed ahead that he would give me his needs list and I would go to get everything. I booked off an hour at work and went to Home ‘Horror’ Depot. I was very glad to be wearing a mask as there was an issue with distancing, mostly from employees oddly. There were proper set up spacing areas around tills and to get in the store and the garden area but the aisles were harrowing. I started to actually panic so I made my choices and got out of there. Didn’t touch any skin or my mask until I got home. I unloaded the car and then came in and threw everything straight into the washer and did the Dr scrub of all exposed skin.

I can’t believe what a difference one tiny window makes.

It no longer sounds like the kids on the trampoline next door are in my house, more just happy sounds in the distance. Which reminds me, I did a swing by to blow kisses through the protective glass it’s like visiting my grandsons at the zoo….

A little later in the day Jackie FaceTimed from Vancouver and that was really nice. It has been a while and I was worried that she wasn’t connecting because last time when I said I was working she hung up right away. This time I just chattered and showed her my plants and new window and she made happy sounds.

Of course, I had used so much personal time I ended up working later and eating later and texting with my dear Mark. Next thing you know I didn’t even really have time to finish watching Survivor and it was walk and bed time!
