Went around town first thing for a couple of hours, suddenly felt light headed then spent rest of day with a form of heat exhaustion! Intend to sit outside at 10pm to feel cooler and watch the stars.
I need to complete my tax return, but I have been putting it off. It keeps sliding off the bottom of my list. Too hot for housework, but anything vaguely energetic will be done before 11 am. Then I will list what I have done so I can cross it off. August is a month with few commitments but I seem to have done nothing in the way of extra jobs for the first ten days .
I love a to do list. It organises my brain. I caught the habit from my late husband who kept a pad and pen on kitchen table and every morning he would write his. I still have his last pad which I treasure.
MissAdventureDont you have the wee busses you book to pick you up from home.drop you off and collect you at a pre arranged time?They are never out of my street ,when the covid jags were booked all the over 60's in the street had appointments the same day and the bus picked us all up on one trip but collected us from different places for the return journey. All available on our bus pass
I have the washing machine going so need to top up the water tank with hose from stand pipe. I have started giving the weeping willow a haircut but blister started to appear on hand so will finish another day. I have to take toilet cassette to empty...ten minute walk with it on wagon to my car and then to emptying point. I will water veg buckets and flower pots this evening. Might sit and read under parasol on the jetty later as long as there is a cooling breeze. Need to go hang washing out now. Will be dry in no time....
Today I popped over the road to Aldi before breakfast for a few things. Then I cleaned the bathroom and washed the kitchen floor, pushed the Shark round the most used areas. Not sure how much else I can be bothered to do today as it is too hot. I have not made a list yet today.
I've done 2 lots of washing, hung it all out. I'll tidy up upstairs later (when the GC have gone out) and change my bed. Not much else, it's going to be too hot today
I must, must do my writing homework for my U3A class on Monday. I've had two weeks to do it and yet again it's left to the last minute. But the topics have not inspired me! Help please on : a fence or a barrier; a cloud; never again! See what I mean?
Bus into town later to M&S, not that I feel like it at all, because I badly need new bras - current ones starting to fall apart. Also Boots, because I can’t find the only lipstick I possess at the moment. Where on earth it is God knows - used it in the car the other day but it’s not there, nor in my bag. Shall buy 2 this time. Might even have enough Boots points to pay for them.?
Out early to buy flowers and wine for visiting tomorrow. On phone for half an hour trying to sort out newspaper subscription for third time - think it is done now but won't hold breath. Grass cut - looks better , surprisingly, in spite of Weetabix appearance. Washed delicate things - now dry as crisps on the line! Too hot to function now - might read new book this afternoon.
