We vaulted into late summer today. It was 97F (36C)!!!

It's expected to be 90F (32C) tomorrow and then back to the usual May gray, and (I hope) June gloom.

And there's something about Santa Anas that stuffs up my nose so bad.

Out soon. Couple of things to get done before this afternoon. Still trying to rain in my area, hasn't really yet. Got a bit last night.

Had to delete my post before this. Finger on right hand jerked and double clicked.

Hubby's fingers are slowly getting better, altho one finger still looks like raw hamburger. I was concerned bc he has redness and swelling around the worst wounds, and of course my mind jumps to the most horrible possibilities, so I took pen and drew a line on the margin of redness. After one hour ... three hours .... 24 hours... the redness hadn't advanced so I was reassured.

I did the same with his bruising... which was deep purple and extensive... after the ablation. I just wanted to reassure myself that he wasn't still seeping blood from the venous access (which, comparing the scar to anatomy charts, is the common iliac vein). Turns out, all was good then, too.

I think I worry too much.

Still soggy here today. Forgot again that the drugstore owed me more of the new seizure med. Then I had to straighten something out at the grocery store. Bought something that was on sale but not in the computer system. Went to customer service and got it sorted out. Then I hit a wrong button face book and had to figure out how to fix it. That complete freaks me out even after I fix it. So and interesting day to say the least.

It seems this was your day to sort out snafus.

I don't do Facebook, so what kind of button can cause so much trouble?

*****
Yesterday I goofed off somewhat but today I made up for it.

I was under the gun to walk the dog early because hubby had a Dr appt this AM. So did that, and we saw the Dr. We got some questions answered and he got a referral to a podiatrist.

Got home and made b'fast (for hubby it was leftover burger, salad and ... eventually... oat bran).

Then I called about a $2000+ bill. Bills like that give me butt puckering moments. (It was a wrong billing)

Then I finished picking boiled chicken bits and cutting up giblets from 3 chicken carcasses to supplement dog's commercial food, and of course saved the broth for us.

Then I gave the dog a bath and, with hubby's help mummy-wrapping her, clipped her nails.

Then I scrub-rinsed a ginormous pile of dishes and pots and pans.

Then I continued scrubbing out my aprons and hand towels with Krud Kutter.

Then I watered the backyard potted plants.

Soon I'll be helping hubby with his shower bc his one finger is still damaged and can't handle a washcloth or towel.

And then making dinner.

Then I relax!

*****
Tue, Wed, and Thu we're predicted to vault into summer again, with temps in the low 90s. Too hot for me!

Also, more Dr appts next week.

It was sort of. And it also included dropping my partial in the sink when I was cleaning it.

As to Face Book, my fingers hit one of the F keys and enlarged the page and it took me a minute to figure out how to shrink it back to the size it was.

Glad you are getting dry weather as we are heading for a mostly soggy long weekend. Yuck!

And I was out waiting for buses in it. That rain made it feel really cold out and the weather on the news said we were about 4 degrees cooler than we should be. I can believe that.

I hear on the Doc. Have to go myself on Tuesday to see about my thyroid test.

Well, everything done for today. Got some writing into a different spot. But somehow it is out of order. Will have to straighten that out.

Was going to do something else this morning but only one washing machine working in building. Maybe I can do it Monday.

Was raining when I went out but dry now. Might be dry tomorrow then rain on Monday. So much for a nice long weekend up here.

Sounds like a gloomy, wet, and rainy weekend. Nice time to stay cozy indoors, if you can.


Worked like a demon yesterday, so I'm throttling back a bit today. Have to talk with dear daughter about the way she's (mis)managing her time. I wish she was as steady as you, BRENDA.

Have to order some stuff online, file some paperwork that I sorted, round up a dinner of sorts (I think it's gonna be "clean out the frig day") and maybe get some yardwork done.

It was wet and gloomy Saturday to be out for sure. Needed a little exercise as tomorrow (Sunday) is my day off. Then Monday it will be back out into the rain for groceries. I've been eating left overs for the last couple of days and I will be finished with them tomorrow.

Have some bookwork to email to the lady who is helping me and see what she said about the last piece, I edited and sent back to her. So that is my Sunday.

In my case, I don't handle zip files all that often, so I always have to hunt down where the unzipped files went.

They are awkward for me to know how to open. Last time she sent me a zip file, I managed to open it by goggling how to do it. But this time it looks like they changed it and I'm not sure how to do it and I need to read the last bit that she edited.

She said that she sent me the whole bit in a zip file because she might be having problems with her computer.

Neither do I. The last time this lady sent me a zip file was a year ago or so.
