Hi. I've done almost nothing worthwhile this weekend. Slept way too late yesterday, sanded on the Corvette some and laid around. Today's been a repeat.
Yesterday, I was told that a guy who I spoke with last Saturday when I picked up Sam's transmission (he loaded it with a tractor) has tested positive for Corona. I never got close, and we were outside, but still....
I already had a dr's appointment for Monday as I have had a cough for several weeks, likely allergies since it happens every year, but best to be safe...

And Lou and Chey have discovered online clothing shopping with a vengeance and are vigorously stimulating the economy of a certain Dainty business in the Oregon area.. :pound:

They only just NOW discovered this?

Bobby there are thousands of husbands/fathers who would love to know how you have hidden this from them for so long.

@work. I think I'm having an eczema situation and I'll have to make a doctor appointment myself this week.


Last Tuesday my mom had some heart issues but neglected to talk to her doctor about it at her appointment on Friday. I'm threatening to call her doctor and tell on her.

My dad is now also going to the heart specialist sometime to get some tests done since his blood pressure will not go down.

Well.. Happy Monday. LOL.

MsJennJenn

I'm quite sure my blood pressure is gonna be the death of me, despite being on BP meds.
It's more my pulse though than my BP. Internal stress about life. And church and things.

Yes, Lynx....my girls are not much more computer minded than fb, ect. They will look occasionally, but Dainty Jewell's can be pricey, so they don't even ask. I've bought from them for Lou a couple of times after seeing her drool over a dress- take note of it, and order it. The other night though, we were talking and they wanted to look at the "sale" page on that website. I escaped several dollars later.
 And, I went to the doctor today, who told me he is sure it is just allergies, but wanted me tested anyway. So I got tested. They ran a wire through the back of my skull, or so it felt. I'm now stuck at home for 3 to 5 days until the results come in..
I intend to make the most of it by sleeping in and doing nothing.

DJ has some pretty dresses, and I love that their sizing is usually spot on (on what I've gotten before, at least).


When people FIRST started getting tested, I watched some videos of them getting tested. I was like "oh my word.. that has to go thru to their brain." LOL.. They all said that it basically felt that way. Looks rough. Hope you get good news! :)

@work but sleepy.

Supposed to get stormy tonight here too.
And Chey is driving me nutso about the dainty jewell's order. "When's it gonna get here? Can I add to it? Look at this dress, Dad!"
Heck, I think the order was for like eight different items. That should be enough!
 I slept until 11 today. I really didn't want this quarantine, but since it is here, I'm enjoying the rest aspect of it.
But I will be glad for this mess to be over. Lou's grocery shopping skills are not to my level and it is killing the budget. I'd do it online, but there are no available time slots for pickup...

We had a crazy storm that hit last night about 1 with lots of hail and wind. It stormed hard until about 3. Our electricity went out about 2 and stayed off until probably 4. I'm thankful for God's protection.

MsJennJenn

Crazy storm here too. My hammock is toppled over. Branches everywhere.

Storm came through, but bypassed us for the most part. Lotsa rain.....but that was it. I got the call a few ago, I am clear of the Corona. That's a blessing, but now I gotta go back to work. :lol: It's beautiful here today although it is a tad windy.

@work.

Sinus hitting hard today! Literally a pain in my nose haha.

I was able to find my party muffins at Sams last night! WOO!

Our deep freeze died Wednesday. It's been incredibly hard looking for one to replace it because apparently they're mostly sold out. We were wanting an upright, but.. I've literally found ONE in stock that I can see online for in-store.  Dunno if we are going to purchase yet tho. We still have our other deep freeze and our above-the-fridge freezer. Jeremy's job (USPS) is telling them to not make any large purchases due to their current financial situation.  So... I think we might wait a while, and hopefully someone will restock all these freezers!

Roscoe

See if you have a "scratch and dent" store around. We have one here locally that usually has good working freezers cheap. As the freezer is an item that is usually out of sight, I personally don't care about scratches, as long as it works. I've bought $200-$300 freezers for $90.
Back at work. Was dreading it, as I knew I'd have a metric ton of work to do to catch up. But I have AMAZING coworkers, and they pretty much kept me afloat for these last few days! I ate healthy (er) today. Lunch was a salad with a bit of smoked chicken breast diced up. I've eaten one snack cake and drank a glass of orange juice. Probably around 500 calories so far today. I need to get back to my calorie counting and lose this 40 lbs that attacked and subdued me.
The allergy meds the doc gave me have really helped.

That's actually where we got the one that died. We had it probably a good 6 years or maybe a few less tho. I have a feeling we brought the early death on ourselves by not maintaining it well.

We both really want an upright this time tho. I'm so tired of digging down into something and I'm short to begin with.

@ work as well. Gonna grab a couple home visits. Otherwise, looking forward to the weekend. It appears to be beautiful outside!

It's beautiful outside? Don't worry, we can fix that.

It's beautiful here, too. Just a little warm.

MsJennJenn

Beautiful here too. Almost 90 degrees. I don't mind. I LOVE IT!
Super windy though. So doesn't feel like 90.

absolutely beautiful day here. I redeemed myself from laziness, somewhat. Trimmed a bunch of trees, mowed the yard, and generally cleaned up. Man, I love home ownership, but there's ALWAYS something to work on. Currently our A/C seems to be taking a blink. That'll cost.. :mad:
 I got Sam started and loaded up with his things for the axle swap. Hopefully it'll be done in the next couple of weeks..

Our electricity was out a few hours today. A pole snapped for some reason & had to be replaced.

Lynx

Lynx here, reporting that there is nothing to report. Life goes on.

We now return to the regularly scheduled nap, almost in progress. =^.^=

Nap is right. I've been lazy. Bro Long is preaching again so no rush to get the sermon together. Looks like many churches are beginning to open back up little by little. We are going to try Mother's Day, with stipulations on masks and distancing. I really am looking forward to it. Still going to see about the live stream though...it's really increased the presence of our church and I don't want to lose that.
Did a little photoshoot of Chey last night- she got dressed up and wanted me to, so we went out in the yard and used Rusty and one of my roses as a prop. I am prejudiced, I'll admit that up front, but she was stunning. And the photos came out really well, especially considering they were taken with an iPhone. Once again I am tempted to buy a decent camera and learn a bit about the hobby. But then again, I have too many hobbies already.

Fer sure! Our church had a real church service last Sunday, but we're still doing livestreaming. We ordered a real camera and everything.

I'm still resisting the urge to say "I told you so!" to certain people who never did want to livestream service before, but are now enthusiastic about it... resisting it so far anyway. One day at a time.
