Good Morning Ladies. Today my big job is laundry. I am going and having my nails done and a pedicure. For some reason I have felt a huge desire lately for both so I am biting the bullet and getting it done.
While I am there MJ is taking the truck for an oil change. After that... I know I need to do laundry. Possibly some groceries and empty/reload the dishwasher.
I need to read about my new instant pot too. My sil gave it to me and I need to find it a home where I can use it.
Not sure on food. Maybe burgers. I do plan to spend some time in the pool, the high today they say will be 100. Yester it was supposed to be 95 and it hit 100. So maybe the temp will hit 105 today...
Have a blessed day ladies.

Today I am focusing on the kitchen. Bed is made, quiet time done, breakfast dishes done, I fed my sourdough. I plan to clean the countertops and sweep and mop the floors. Yesterday I took bleach and scrubbed and hosed down the back steps, which were grodey from tracking dirt from the garden. Got a bunch of baking done too before the heat gets too bad. I am still wanting to do some mowing, but honestly, the yard isn't bad yet and the heat index is going to be like 105 this weekend; too hot and humid for me! Mel, I was gifted with an instant pot a few years ago, but I usually only use it now for making yogurt (it is AMAZING for making yogurt!) and French dip. I really prefer simmering my food on the stove in my cast iron, but then I don't work, so I have the luxury of spending the extra time.

Good morning. My swelling is worse than usual, so I'll have to MAKE myself lay around today to help get it down. I need to do dishes and take care of the dogs. Laundry is caught up. Maybe I'll crochet. At least I'll feel like something is getting accomplished that way!
Have a good weekend.

Not so slow here, but it feels more do-able with DH back (even though we pretty much did and went everywhere together).
I taught a few classes this morning, wrote reports. Then we went to tkd class. DH missed a proficiency this week, so he basically did everything in his next test for the instructor. Since I knew he would need a partner (to "defend" himself from 🤣), I was hanging around the the instructor "invited" me to do all of the skills along with DH. So, I got an extra intense workout... and pleasded for a nice, icy diet coke upon leaving. 🥤
Next, we went to a mainstream grocery store... and THEN we went to Trader Joe's, and then we came home and put it all away. I sat for a little bit with DH and then came back to my (still on) computer. I did some administration for some classes I am offering in the autumn. I popped in here, but dinner will be soon. The boys are making pizza. Not sure what DH is up to (or myself, for that matter). We'll probaby both have salads.
