Daylight Savings Time does not fall back until Oct. 25. I am up early this morning. I got a good night's sleep. I did not push myself to stay awake last night. A friend was telling me last week that her wants changed as she got older. A good night's sleep is much higher on her wants list than it was in her younger years. I have the week-end off ( Read more... )

I got a different car this week. My old one acted up on my drive to work last Sunday. I had been doing well attending fitness classes five days in a row. I did not attend any classes this week because it is difficult to get to them without a car. I went out of town to visit my parents and pick up a spare car. It belonged to my grandmother and she ( Read more... )

I am glad to wake up before dawn. I will water outdoor plants this morning. I will wait until 7 AM to get out there. I will sweep leaves after I water. The concrete resurfacing crew applying SEMCO will be here before 9 AM. They are working quickly and getting it all done nicely. There is only a tiny bit of pavement that they will mix, put down, and ( Read more... )

It rained last night and relieved me of needing to water plants. The concrete contractors sanded and pressure washed on all sides of the building. It was a noisy and distracting experience for me. The end results are good. The concrete has been leveled with their sanding machine. The machine enabled the crew to do what would have taken a few days ( Read more... )

I woke up before sunrise this morning. Yesterday I drove my younger brother to the airport at 4:30 AM. I went back to bed and woke up around 10 AM. It is nice to wake up earlier in the day. I don't like late work hours like I had last week-end. Next week-end they are earlier in the day. Yesterday was sunny. I mowed the lawn for the first time in ( Read more... )

Last night I was in bed relaxing after a long day of work. I could not sleep because sirens kept making noise. I saw there were flashing lights out in front of the building I live in. I got on my clothes and went outside to check out the scene. I was surprised to see numerous Medic vehicles police cars, and fire engines blocking the street. My ( Read more... )

I am liking Mondays now because they are like a Saturday to me. Mondays are better than Saturdays since less people are out and about. I usually don't have trouble finding a parking spot on Mondays except in the evening at the fitness center. Today I plan on staying home and doing things. The sky is still grey outdoors. The painters are not here ( Read more... )

I am pleased with how the painting went this week. They hoped to finish on Friday. However, they will return on Monday to finish final details. They worked really hard. They did not show up or call last Monday when I thought they would be here. They worked extra hard the rest of the week. The boss man was especially easy to work with. I was nervous ( Read more... )

This morning there was a little rain. The temperature is in the 60s. Next week it will be in the 70s with no rain. It will be good weather for outdoor painting. The painters have started scraping and sanding the exterior of the building. They will be busy prepping and painting next week. We are lucky the weather is fine. They worked in the hot sun ( Read more... )

This is the last Mon. I am automatically put on the schedule to work an 8 hour day. I have eliminated my availability Mon. - Fri. for now. I have things I need to get caught up on around home. This week I will decide on a bid from painters. Hopefully, I will have all three bids soon. I received 2 immediatlely, plus one for concrete overlay. Setting ( Read more... )
