Yesterday was sunny with some wind. The high got to 29C. This morning it is cloudy and 17C. Today is supposed to be sunny with a high of 29C (humidex 33C).
Lifestyle
The morning started out with daughter-in-law coming over with her breakfast. She had gotten up early to go and clean the hall which had been left in a mess. The lady getting the dirt had come and gone with one van load. She had brought her daughter with her who worked like a trooper for a 10 year old.
The dirt was all gone by 9:30 am and my neighbour had everything cleaned up.
We talked about how we had gardened and fertilized the boxes each year. He is going to do what I did with them so they can get a better crop.
I also did the balance sheet which took me twice as long as possible. The bank statement was different than the previous one. I had to find out what I needed to do to get a starting balanced point. I finally did and then the fun began. I had a mistake and finally found it. Then I was 50 cents out and I found it. I got the stats done and the bills paid just before lunch. I have notes written so I know what I need to do when I start August on Sunday.
I had a nap after lunch. I literally fell asleep on the couch. I have been wondering why I have been so tired. I finally figured it out. I have been going to bed a bit later due to having IBS attacks in the evening. I am waking up during the night and tossing and turning for about an hour. I am tired from this combination and needed to nap.
Dinner was at family's house. Daughter-in-law had soccer friends over and we had smoked pork loin (delicious), potato salad, and a vegetable platter. It was perfect. The husband and the son enjoyed the pool while the wife and daughter-in-law enjoyed the hot tub. The husband went in also. I sat and talked to them. I left around 7:30 pm as I knew I was going to feel horrid.
Sewing
I got the starched fabric downstairs and onto the ironing board. It is ready to press and cut so I can finish my quilt. I haven't sewn since I finished the doll's dress on July 30. I am ready to get back to sewing once again.
Knitting
I knit 20 rounds on the socks last night and have 10 rounds left before the leg is finished.
Thoughts
I was so shocked to hear how many people knew about the Spousal Unit's vegetable boxes. He was the envy of everyone as he grew great vegetables. People would drive by to see how tall the tomatoes were, how thick the peas and beans had gotten. I've been told the boxes will be missed as it had inspired many to try growing vegetables. It is too bad that the Spousal Unit never knew this. But he can be proud that he grew enough vegetables for us, family, friends and anyone who he could give the excess to.
I just checked last night's sleep. I had the most deep sleep and less awake time in ages. On the other hand, my IBS is worse. I'm back to where I was a few months ago. Hopefully I will find a happy medium again. In the mean time, I will nap if I have to keep going.
Today
My plan is to start cleaning my bedroom this morning. I have already watered the plants before I had my coffee. I want to sew on the quilt this afternoon and knit on the socks tonight. I don't think I need to be out at all today.
Until the next time......................................................................
