Good morning from a frozen prairie. It’s coooooooollllddd outside!
Thankfully, it’s warm in my apartment and I’m sipping my glorious coffee and easing myself into this Monday morning.
Two hour later: still easing into my morning, ha! Just saw the woman from downstairs climb out of the apartment and warm her car up as I was taking Martini out to potty in the small patch that’s less icy than other areas.
Came back inside to hear her man playing his fucking video games as loud as possible. It’s so strange that way back when he told me that it wasn’t video games, that it was like a surround sound for movies, but anyone who’s ever heard the booming and my walls shaking has confirmed it’s not movies…that noise is for sure video games. WHYYY doesn’t this guy get headphones?!
And oh boy, my SIL just called. She’s so mad at the home health care person who is coming in daily to take care of Mom and Dad. We’ve known this, but she’s not doing a good job cleaning - especially the toilets. And apparently, things are starting to smell. So…more phone calls to make this morning. I’ve already called and left a message, but I think they may be closed today due to the ice storms.
I’ll check in with Mom and Dad later. They sleep in until nearly noon these days. Bless them.
These are my daily trials and tribulations these days. I have a few more applications to submit today that I saw over the weekend, then, a good, hard workout indoors since outside is out of the question. Still so thankful we have power in this area.
And today, I have a sparkling clean kitchen and a somewhat thinned out main closet. I never got to the 2nd bedroom closet over the weekend, but at least I managed to check two big things off.
I’m thinking about starting to flesh out all of my “Lifetimes” from a few entries ago. I feel like there’s so much to write, so I’m making bullet points that I can fill in later, but this might just end up being a thing…
Ok. Lots to do when I think about it. Here’s to eventually thawing out…
xox,
GS
