Yesterday was cloudy with a high of 9C. This morning it is partly cloudy and -2C. Today is supposed to be a mix of sun and clouds with a high of 10C.
Lifestyle
I worked a bit on the family tree yesterday morning as I found more information to add. I limited my time so I could clean the kitchen.
The kitchen got a good cleaning as I was noticing some dirty spots. I pulled out the stove and cleaned the sides of it and the cupboards and vacuumed the floor space. I try to do that every 2 - 3 months. I pulled the filter out of the dishwasher and cleaned it. It needed doing. Once I put it back in, I ran the dishwasher with a cleaning agent in it. The last big cleaning job was to wash the cupboard under the sink. It needed doing. I then cleaned counters so they were real clean. The final job was to clean the outside of the appliances.
I did make a new lunch for me and I enjoyed it. I also cooked a rice bowl for dinner. It is one that I like and have made it two or three times now.
I was tired yesterday as I knew I didn't sleep well the night before and I really pushed myself in the kitchen. I slept after lunch as I couldn't keep my eyes open. I know part is not getting enough deep sleep at night. I seem to crash at noon.
Sewing
I didn't sew yesterday as I was too tired to tackle projects as they required an alert mind.
Knitting
I did knit last night (and unknit) and got the heel flap completed and the heel turned on the first sock.
I did get 12 rows knit on the second sock's heel flap. They are coming along nicely and should be done before the end of the month.Thoughts
I need to try and get a better sleep at night. I know some of my poor sleep habits are from worrying about the world situation at this time. I am trying to relax but it is hard.
I was a bit more sore than I liked yesterday and I did some stretching exercises in bed last night. I had 4 to 6 good cracks and I feel better. More than one joint was not seat properly and the pain has subsided once again.
The boys across the street had out a tennis net that went across the street. They were playing and having a lot of fun. Everyone went in for dinner and when I looked outside, one of the boys from down the road was sitting at the edge of my lawn waiting for the other boys to come out. He finally went home as the other boys stayed inside.
Today
I am going to do some cleaning this morning and try to sew this afternoon. I am going out tonight to watch the play grandson's school is putting on so won't be knitting tonight. I would like to get outside and plant the garlic cloves in the vegetable boxes if it is warm enough.
Until the next time.................................................................
