A Slow Day To Recover

 Yesterday was mainly cloudy and windy with a high of 12C. This morning it is cloudy and 5C. Today is supposed to be sunny with a high of 15C. 

Lifestyle

I was survival mode yesterday. I was tired from having a late night. I paced myself so I could get through the day. I did do some cleaning and took out the garbage. I folded the laundry and put it away. Then I had a nap. All before lunch. 

The nap did help some but I was still quite tired so I slowed my pace even more. The only jobs I did was to make dinner, take the garbage to the curb for pick up today, covered the plants in the vegetable boxes and sprayed the plants in the front of the house to keep the deer away. I think I had a deep sleep when napping and it took me a long time to wake up hence me not wanting to do much in the afternoon. 

My lawns got mowed yesterday and they were longer than I thought. The company is so busy mowing that they are behind in doing jobs like my hedge. It will get done. 

Sewing

None done as I knew I would make mistakes. I steered clear of the sewing room. 

Knitting

I did knit a lot yesterday afternoon and evening. I also made mistakes I had to fix. At least they were easy to fix. I knit 40 rounds on sock #2. Ten more rounds and I can start the heel flap.

Thoughts

    I watched a lot of TV yesterday hence why I knit so much. Most of it was videos I enjoy watching. I try not to do this every day as it cuts into what I have planned. I did sleep well last night. 

    We didn't get frost last night which is wonderful. The skies had a lot of clouds in it and there was some wind which is probably the reason the temperature didn't go as low as expected. There is still a chance we can get frost in early June. Slim but it still can happen. 

    I was saddened yesterday to hear that a rodeo friend passed away on Tuesday. She was only 65. We were quite close friends during our years in high school rodeo. We had kept in contact via social media since then. 

Today

I am out this morning to get my first dose of the shingles vaccine. Once home, I hope that I can do a few things unless I  it makes me tired. I hope to launder the blankets I use on the vegetable boxes as they are dirty. I may get a bit of sewing done this afternoon. I am out tonight to watch the cadet review at grandson's school. I won't be knitting tonight as I won't get home until after 8 pm. 

Until the next time...............................................................
