One Sock Done

 Yesterday was a mix of sun and clouds with a high of 21C. This morning it is raining and 20C. Today is supposed to be a mix of sun, clouds, and showers with a high of 22C (humidex 29C). 

Lifestyle

I spent the morning working on several items. I cleaned the kitchen as it was getting a bit messy. I also pulled out the stove so I could clean the sides of it and the cupboards and vacuum the floor. When I vacuumed the rest of the floor, it was quite clean. Rosie the Robot does a great job of vacuuming the floors. 

The next job was to pick the jalapeño peppers. I got the middle sized stainless steel bowl filled to the top. 

The peppers will continue to ripen and turn red over time. I pulled the plants from the planters and put them away in the shed. I swept the deck once again and put the deck table on its side. The only job left to do is to put the hose away and finish up some weeding. 

I did a load of laundry, folded it, and put it away. The fastest I have been for a very long time. I do have one load of new clothes left to launder and I will be caught up for a while. 

Sewing

I did not do anything in the sewing room yesterday. I had a nap instead. 

Knitting

Sock #1 is done. I spent the whole evening knitting on it. 

Hopefully sock #2 will be done tonight. 

Thoughts

    My nap was mainly time resting and thinking. I needed to think about a lot of things and move back to living calmly rather than feeling stressed. I have got myself back on track and have decided not to stress over things but deal with things directly. 

    I had thought of buying a Dyson fan for my bedroom. A video came up in my YouTube feed and I watched it. The person compared the Dyson fan I wanted to an oscillating fan like I have. The oscillating fan won for quietness (important for sleeping) and how much air they move on high speed. The Dyson fan won for having more speeds. For my bedroom, I will keep the oscillating fan I have and replace it with another one if and when it wears out. 

    The rain we had was wonderful but it was warm and muggy outside when I opened the door this morning. It is only going to get worse as the day goes on. I will put on the a/c to keep cool and be thankful we got the moisture we so badly needed. 

    I heard back from the osteopathy therapist. I am hoping I can get an appointment late next month but I am not holding my breath. If it happens great, if not I won't be disappointed. 

Today

I am going to do the balance sheet this morning and pay some bills. I am pushing myself downstairs to start tidying up the sewing room. I would like to work on the memory book this afternoon and knit tonight. Another day at home for me. 

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