At times it seems I will never get much done, and there are times I don't see much progress but this evening I am in my downstairs bedroom, in my office corner with my knitting, Netflix and a quiet house. The bills that need paid are paid and work went well today.
I bid to an easier (but dirtier, wetter) job in plant and am now qualified on that job and find it is getting easier on this old body every week and far less stress. I come home with some energy to do something and not mad at the world.\
And the world or at least my part of it seems lacking a few handy gadgets, looked all over for a coffee cup warmer and discovered I buy those sort of things on line now days....ok, so the 1 up in the sewing studio is old-yes, it did move from Missouri with me, yes, I have worked in this plant over 15 years now, but it still works. I just want another 1 for my new office space, and it will be coming from Amazon.
And I have a book coming from there too, non-fiction and pre-order, it's to arrive here tomorrow and I do hope it's on time, figure I will be working on Jake's socks and reading it.
I do have my classes I wanted at Michigan Fiber Festival, so that's taken care of, and I have August and vacation to look forward to.
And I am getting a new laptop, that is ordered and the order processed today, I don't have a shipping notice yet or tracking but expect to see that soon and then will hopefully have Ben be handy to receive it and put it on my bed. No, I have not told him, it's not his money/credit and not his business what I am getting. He does live here and I do expect him to make sure any packages that arrive are taken care of for me, I do any that come for him or Jake.
The downstairs bedroom is almost done, a few things left to do, including mix up a small amount of plaster to fill a few holes that I made trying to put some screws in for the new power bar to fasten on. My office got a nice surge protected strip with 2 USB outlets also. The printer and laptop are what plugs in so far, the desk light is in the regular outlet, the new cup warmer will go on the surge protector, so when I turn it off, that cup warmer is also off.
We have Thumper again, and we are dealing with scabies again. This will be the last time I keep Thumper, I can't keep having open sores on my hands from these very tiny mites, I am very reactive to them, and it's a serious problem that has to end. Jake will not be happy but he's not in charge of my hands and my bills that won't be paid if I can't work because of my hands and scabies bites.
Time for something to eat, get a shower and to bed. Like looking forward to work once again, that is a plus.
