Not sure what my problem was but I had a heck of a time talking myself into getting anything done today. Chore wise, I ran a quick vacuum, pulled the two trash bins to the alley, unloaded the dishwasher, and made my bed (if that counts). I'll do better tomorrow.
The top of my right shoulder (the one I had a big ole operation on) has been aching something awful all day. I half wonder if I didn't do it to myself 'cause I've been playing games on line. I'm ready to take the blame if that's the case. I do feel a little guilty sitting there playing "just one more game of bingo", or free cell, or a crossword puzzle (my fav) but I guess if I want to waste my day doing trivial games I guess I can. And if this shoulder pain is because of that, well, then I have it coming.
Tomorrow I'm going to try REAL HARD to NOT get online to play games. Gotta do more constructive stuff like my very difficult jigsaw puzzle. haha Or sewing. I did get out four pieces of fabric and ironed them up so I can start cutting out pieces of the templates I decided on. I wanted to work on a quilt square that wasn't complicated and I think I found one as it only needs two templates and two colors. It's called Dutchman's Puzzle.
I made a trip across town this afternoon around 1 as my nightlight was out and I needed a bulb. Anything to get out of the house now and then and I knew I could pick them up for a buck at the Dollar Tree. I stopped at Goodwill just to browse and was disgusted with how that store continues to have prices that are entirely too high. And so much of their merchandise now is new stuff (but cheap stuff if you know what I mean) Very obvious that all the donations they're getting at the back door are not coming out on the floor for sale. You can just tell. I gave them none of my money and am going to avoid that store for the most part whenever I can.
Stopped at the Bread store but nothing looked good so I left there without buying anything either. I was hungry coming home but didn't like the lines at McDonalds, Wendy's, or Frugals so I thought I'd try Jack in the Box. I got in line but the guy behind me got tired of the line not moving so he pulled out. That was enough for me. I backed out too and drove on home. Just not in the mood for fast food places who don't deliver fast enough to suit me.
I suppose I was in less than a good mood if I was honest. I called several drivers bad names and even more people "stupid!" Yeah, I'm a real potty mouth behind the wheel sometimes. I came home and fixed a ham sandwich with a rootbeer. Good enough. Supper tonight is going to be a salad and maybe a small baked potato.
My house is free of knickknacks since I downsized and packed away things but a friend found a Vernon Kilns small cup and saucer at an estate sale the other day and bought it for me. I love it. The bottom says: Made for Olympic Hardware Furn.Co and the picture is the court house. I have a larger dinner plate with various PT scenes on it that was made for the Eisenbeis Store. Love my Port Townsend memorabilia.
I worked on my jigsaw puzzle for a while but made little progress and decided to walk away from it until tomorrow. I'm not giving up on it yet but I'm getting close. Jenni's going to bring me over some 500 piece puzzles. I think they're more fun. Here's the one I'm attempting now.
I've had the radio on all day long. KIXI 880 am out of Seattle. Listening via the tv with my roku. And with that I guess you can see I'm low on interesting things to say today. Gonna fix supper, sit in my recliner, and watch some more episodes of Mindhunter on Netflix.
