Day 9: Thursday: They built an insulation box around the
HVAC. We had high hopes for a little
more forward movement. They were dashed
indeed. The Geezer worked with a
biodegrading computer program. I cleaned
out the art and architecture shelves.
Few were discarded only because of mold damage. Dinner:
Chicken kababs over a grain, few point chocolate ice cream to follow.
Day 10: Friday: G spent the whole day struggling with his
work programs. Poor guy. The only interruption, one guy came in and
built a door for HVAC access. That was
it. Frankly, most of the time I’m ok
living like this, but if I get to thinking I get very unhappy. Living this small is interesting. I didn’t pack enough clothes tho. Perhaps I was an optimist. ** We
are doing good with our WW breakfasts and lunches. G packed me a just delightful sandwich for
lunch today. I admit to being
spoiled. Dinners have been WW failures. Tonight a sandwich, then we driving a very
long way around to a meeting as there is a marathon in the middle of our usual
route. Later lots of Boston news.
Day 11: Saturday: So very glad the one 19 year old was caught
alive. I don’t think we will have many
answers, but maybe we can have a little hope.
I still fall apart when I see photos of the 8 year old boy. ** The
sun is out. Glorious stuff
sunshine. I hope I can talk G into a
little shopping today. A few T-shirts
will augment my every day stuff as the temperature rises into the 80’s here at
the coast. (28.3 C.) **
Found some shutters at Home Depot that match the living room ones yet
will cover the giant black boarders of the new windows in the kitchen and upstairs
bath. HD was then apologetic as they couldn’t figure out if they
still sold them or not. Gee…why did they
have them on display then if they didn’t still sell them? **
I'm so sorry about the word verification.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear the remodeling changes have slowed up. Probably waiting for some other pieces or person to do the job before they can commence moving on.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the shutters, maybe they can order them from another store?
Keep smiling...it has to get better.
Hang in there. I recall the chaos of when we added on to our little house more than two decades ago. I think the challenge of disrupted living space and routines increases dramatically with each decade of life!
ReplyDeleteAnd I added word verification last December and spam went from several hundred a day to zero. I believe it slowed my internet service, too.
Wonder if the installers are out starting up another big job and you are in the "getting finished" slot with them. I removed the anonymous option from my blog and almost all of the spam has stopped. It was suggested by Optimistic Existentialist. Seems to be working.
ReplyDeleteI do not know why this spam is increasing. What can they possible get out of it? Who links to their stupid web sites? Keep eating healthy, do not punish yourself with bad food.
ReplyDeleteI also removed the anonymous from one of the blogs and that seems to have helped. I also have comment approval on posts older than 10 days.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're in the midst of a remodel job. Glad you'll be spared aircraft noise with the new landing strip.
ReplyDeleteYeah, this spam is ridiculous. I've added comment moderation but haven't eliminated Anony. 'cause a blogger I like uses it, then signs her name at end of message, or I would. Wish blogger would figure out to accept that one and jettison all the other Anons to spam, but guess the system is incapable of being so discreet.
I've checked out some legit. spam sites and sent them direct emails complaining -- like a law office in Texas and a chiropractic rehab practice in a nearby Calif. city and another State.
Geez, i just erased everything I wrote. Oh well if at first you don't ficasse, fry fry a hen.
ReplyDeleteRe Chaos...from Chaos came order. Greek mythology 101.
Re WW. Reached my halfway goal today. Only took one year.
Re Boston, too bad for both boys. So sad when older brother takes younger one astray. Very sad about the 8-year old. Dianne
it was the London Marathon yesterday and Boston was in all our hearts.
ReplyDeleteI posted a photo of a miniature Iris I have in a pot in my side yard. Check it out. I love this color. Will check back on you later today. Off this AM. Dianne
ReplyDeleteAbout the spam, I only have one word of advice to offer (well, actually three to be technical): switch to Wordpress. As for the Vitamin D deficit, it's pretty common as we get older. Both Hubby and I have been boosted with magadoses, and now we both take supplements. It's better than feeling tired and run down.
ReplyDeleteI love how Boston is taking care of each other. We've been hearing such heartwarming stories here about how people are helping the victims cope.
