Friday Ordeal

 The second bathroom company was scheduled to come at 6pm Friday. Well, that did not happen due to my lack of sleep. I had not slept all night, went shopping during the day. I had to sleep. I slept from 4 pm until 10:45 pm. I cannot help it. 

The protein drink I bought Tommy at Sam's had more carbs than protein, so we won't buy that again. I think I put down the wrong product. The one I bought today had 30 g of protein and 3 mg carbs. It tasted like Yoohoo, watered down chocolate milk.  

Now, I realize I have a raging UTI. Lovely. Now, I realize why I am feeling so awful--cold, achy, kidney pain, joints ache. 

While we were doing my leg therapy, Tommy and I talked about Christmas. I asked him about the biggest surprise Santa gifts. He said when he was a teen, his father bought the two boys a shotgun. SHOTGUN? He lived in Bessemer. He was not a country dweller. This was the father who refused to buy him a bike because he might get hit by a car! Tommy bought his own bike when he went to Auburn. Of course, he had a car, too. 

Friday morning, there were sounds outside on the street for hours, it seems. I didn't feel curious enough to go look out the door. Finally, I sorted it all. First was the garbage truck going up and down both sides of the street. People going to work, people coming home from work. The neighbor pulling the+ trash can to our house. Finally, I heard something closer and a voice near the door. A delivery. Then, everything was quiet.  There had been a mystery noise that went on for thirty minutes. I still don't know what that was. I never heard it here. Remember, I was sleep deprived and feverish. The noise was not disturbing me at all. It was just all a mystery. 

Cleaner goes to doctor in ten days. So, she won't be able to come here until just before Thanksgiving. That is not good for me. Of course, her surgery recovery comes first. 

I am too tired to continue. No edit on this. Nothing exciting or interesting. Just a record of my day for me, I suppose. 

Have you ever tried  Yoohoo? Did you like it? 

I Forgot the Best Part

 As I approached the electric cart the clerk brought me, I was shocked. There by the back wheel was a shiny, new dime. 

I did not sleep well or long Monday night, took an early nap from 10:30 am to 1 pm, got up and just quit running at about 6:30 pm. 

We cleaned out lots of leftovers for dinner. Tommy had the last thigh I thawed last week along with slaw, black-eyed peas, potatoes, carrots, and Brussls sprouts. I had the last pork chop, half a carrot, 1/2 small potato, Brussels sprouts, slaw. I suppose the only difference in our dinner was he had a thigh and I had pork chop. 

Tommy's car is making a huge sputtering noise and shaking. He said it might be trash in the gas tank that was now in the engine. The car shook me until I was exhausted. I don't know if he is going to take it in or just wait until something is ruined or until it quits running. My whole body hurts from the jarring thar lasted three hours. 

Amazon or an Amazon pretender emailed me, asking if I had placed an order while near Washington, US. It seems the order was cancelled. I hope so. I had ordered something not an hour earlier. I ordered something two weeks ago. I wanted two items. However, each box had two pieces, so, essentially, I have four when I wanted two. I did the same thing this time. Thankfully, it is something I can use two. 

Tommy was commenting yesterday that there are no birds. Usually, we see so many when sitting in the car. I suppose they all flew south. When he put my lemon tree out, he said three pollinators were happy to see it. 

I was in a big box store and made a shortcut that just happened to go by a 20' display of birdseed. There were a dozen flour moths or kitchen moths fluttering about the bags. Anyone who buys a bag of birdseed will take home pantry moths. Be careful. Freeze the whole bag first or leave it outdoors. I suppose you could empty the bag into gallon freezer bags, freeze it for three days and then bring indoors. 

Are there birds still at your house?
