I woke up around 6 and decided to get up. I wake up between 3-5 times a night - my Dad does too, and caffeine intake, exercise, working, not working, nothing seems to affect it. I thought it was caregiving but Ron's gone and it persists. I have just accepted this as part of my life.
In the unlikely event I remarry we will probably need separate beds.
So I got up, did my protein shake, took my shower, shaved my legs, got dressed in my favorite cargo shorts. I headed out to the grocery store.
It wasn't too busy which was nice, but the vegetable/bakery area is always packed no matter when I go. Meat, too.
I decided I will make some spaghetti. They had some cream based cajun pasta sauce and I thought that would be good over noodles with some sausage. I am deathly allergic to crab and I avoid seafood due to cross contamination issues. I got some hives on my hand this week and I am not sure if it was zoning the nuts or maybe eating a cup of noodles. The noodles say on the back they may be cross contaminated with shellfish. I think it was the noodles, to be honest.
I got in line, paid, headed out. It was very hot, sunny, humid at the bus stop. I will need to start bringing my insulated tote bag for the perishables.
I got the same driver who brought me and she loved her snack. I got her a banana, a bag of nuts, a bag of chips (in vending terms it would be considered LSS or ounce and a half size), a candy bar, and a generic brand soda. She looked pretty happy to see it.
It was a long, hot, walk home from the bus stop but I didn't see any dogs which was great. I was very sweaty by the time I got home, I went to the bathroom, used the toilet, wet down a washcloth, and wiped my face with it. Then I held the cool washcloth on my face for a few beats. That was very refreshing. I may need to figure out how to put one in a zip lock and bring it when I go to work Friday afternoons. The other days I leave the house when it's still dark and that's as good as I'm going to get on the weather.
I put up the groceries and started the laundry. We were forecast to get thunderstorms this afternoon and I don't like to run the washer during bad weather.
I am probably very unusual but I actually read the entire manual for the washer online before I bought it. It advised not to run it during bad weather.
The dryer is, like, immortal. I had that pipe leak all over it all night and then the ceiling fell in on it, and it still works. Impressive! It's a Kenmore.
I took a nap. I woke up with a little bit of a headache but it was raining. It lasted until about 2:30 or so. I plugged the computer back in and got online, only to find one of my mission partners had used a statement I made (when asking for supplies) on their Facebook! "Please pray for Heather!" they asked!! I'll take it!
The cats are good; I haven't seen Spotty in a while he is probably out. That's it for now!
