05-19-21 Toe pampering
I can’t even believe that after the heat wave of Sunday night I awoke to my vehicle covered in frost. I hope my plants all survive it.
I laughed to log in to Facebook and find that according to my shopping history I am in need of a new boat and diamonds. Champagne taste on a Budweiser budget, my friends.
I got a lot of work done and then skipped out for a bit to get a deluxe pedicure. It was very relaxing and I read my Cher magazine while i was there. A good relax was just what I needed. I paid dearly for it but it was worth it.
I went back to the office and got a bunch more done before driving Chance home and borrowing his battery jumper pack. I wanted to get my 46 Willys CJ2A running. It has been parked in my yard since Fall 2019 so I am hopeful. It is very dirty and needs some love. The pack didn’t do the trick and I am pretty sure it needs a new battery. I dug around until I found my trickle charger and plugged it in for the night. I will try again tomorrow. With my leg issue it is very challenging to get in and out. I can’t wait to get her on the road again though.
On my way home I was thinking that Jake had used air quotes around “it’s in the mail” about my birthday and Mother’s Day present. I was going to rib him about it but when I checked my mail there was a wee parcel with a beautiful necklace holding all three of my kids birthstones. I confess, I have always been jealous of women with that type of jewelry but it’s not something you buy yourself. I was thrilled that he took the time to get me such a personalized gift. He’s a good lad.
My second Hello Fresh order arrived today and I was shocked because I thought it was Tuesday! I enjoyed my take out lunch from The Cottage. Quite the great deal: a huge half of a BLT on think homemade bread, Turkey noodle soup and Bread Pudding for only 10.99. I started late but made the HF meal for dinner and it made enough for another lunch and dinner as well as tonight. A little bit gassy for my tummy as it used Montreal Steak Spice but it as so nice to have something a little spiced for a change.
It really is a shame not to have anyone to share it with!
