Almost Noon-Fri in Day to day life from a woman that turned 60 in Oct 2014 and who lives on a farm and Retired on January 2, 2016. I plan to do more sewing, work outside in the yard and just enjoy my retirement.

It is cool today. 54 degrees outside. Cloudy with rain pending. Grass is too wet to mow. Leftover branches from last Sat’s burning, too wet to burn. Dump trucks going up and down the road. Road grader stopped grading just below the trailer driveway. They’re doing something up above me on the road, but don’t know what. I hope they do better grading before they leave for the day. It looks worse than it did before they started, but that seems to be the way they do it most every time they do decide to grade the road. The road grader drivers have no idea what they are doing nor how to do it correctly. That, too, is par for the course. Usually a couple of us will end up with a flat tire in the next few days, depending on how many times you have to drive the road.

Did not feel good at all yesterday thus didn’t get anything done except a small load of white clothes that I hung outside. I didn’t even go to the 3 youngest grand’s end of school year concert. I really felt that crappy. Wed night I had a short spell of heart palpitations and then again early yesterday morning. Once they stop, then a wicked headache and total exhaustion. And just don’t feel good. Haven’t had this happen for a spell and I didn’t miss them. This morning I feel a bit better but still lacking energy.

Received the call about J’s next sleep test and it has been scheduled for the evening of the 9th of May. It is a Monday night. Please pray or send good thoughts and or vibrations that the mask the specialist thinks will work, does work for J. I believe taking the bed out of his room is on the horizon. I will wait a little while but hope no longer than month and I’d really like to get the bed out within a week of him receiving his CPAP if all goes well with the mask. Once I can get the bed out, then the furniture, such as dresser and chest of drawers can go back in his room. *sigh This process reminds of when I worked. Hurry up and wait.

The 1st Farmer’s Market on post is supposed to be this afternoon and evening. I will try to get over there, but my energy level isn’t too promising. Also had told my Dad we’d go somewhere to eat today but with the impending weather we may postpone that until a clear day and a little warmer.

Did make a couple more succulent with the sand art on Wednesday. Low and behold the Dollar General Store in hometown had white and blue sand. Will look for other colors in another couple DGs when I am in their area. I’d like to find green, yellow, red, and pink too. Purple would be excellent too. I’m sure I’ll end up with more sand than I’ll use, as that seems to be typical.

My restless leg syndrome (RLS) is doing a number already today. I HATE when that happens!! It is also the reason I was awake and up at 4:30 this morning. I also hate when THAT happens too!! This was a morning I could sleep a little later, but no, I got up even earlier than when I get J up for work. Grrrr.

Since the RLS is giving me fits I will end this, post it and get to doing something.

Take care and God Bless
