Sure is hard to keep myself entertained through all of this social distancing.  For years now I have kept a planner and every night I write what happened during the day and stuff that we did.  The last weeks have been:

 Went to work.  Made calls.  Went home.  Cooked supper.  Sat on the couch.  

 Some nights are fun because I can say “Had Happy Hour Zoom with friends.”  Then sat on the couch.

 Then there are those times I do something fun like laundry or vacuum.  YAHOO!!!!  Then safe on the couch.

 This week I decided I needed to clean my house.  Really clean.  I am not to proud to say I have a cleaning lady normally.  And the reason I have one is MY HUSBAND!!   He told me a couple years ago that we didn’t need a cleaning lady.  HE WOULD HELP ME CLEAN!!!  Ya right!!  So one Sunday I am busting my bootie to get the house clean and (get this) as he is laying in his recliner he actually says:  “Can you please not vacuum until the race (NASCAR) is over?  I can’t hear over the noise.”  SERIOUSLY?????  I put the vacuum away and hired a cleaner.😱😱😱😱😱

 Soooo.  With all of this going on I decided I couldn’t wait any longer and went to town.  I will tell you it was hard work.  I moved furniture, I moved rugs, I moved everything and cleaned.  I literally had sweat dropping on the floor.  It looked fabulous when I was done and as I cracked a cold beer (after a shower) I told Scott that there sure is a satisfaction knowing I did all that hard work BUT I really don’t need that satisfaction again for along time.  🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵

 Another “fun” thing I did was take my daughters dog for a walk.  Sounds easy enough right??  AHUM..  Not quite.  This “puppy” is a rescue.  She is adorable and is part lab, part German Shepard, maybe part pit bull, and I think part greyhound.  So now you know.  Who took whom for a walk?  Started out okay walking down the road.  She gets pretty excited when she sees other dogs 🐕 so I was prepared for it.  UNTIL I was dumb enough to take her on the walking path past the dog park.  🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬. She took off, I lost the leash, popped off 3 fingernails in the process and ran after her.  I won’t tell you what I am sure this all looked like to the other folks in the park.  I grabbed her and pulled her away as gracefully as I could 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵. Sweating profusely the whole time.
Still 5 blocks from home, I finally made it.  Needless to say we were both exhausted and panting.  
Thank goodness I had “Happy Hour” scheduled with a couple friends.  ZOOM ZOOM ZOOM!!!!

 Stay healthy all!!

So. Is wearing a mask our new normal??

Image
  As I get ready to go to the Dr for an appointment I find myself searching for the mask that will match what I am wearing.  REALLY??  I guess that shouldn’t surprise those of you that know me at all.  👸🏼👸🏼 I also ate breakfast before I left and normally would check my teeth and make sure my lipstick is spot on BUT I find myself in the kitchen thinking - WHY?  What does it matter if my lipstick is only on part of my lip?  What does it matter if I have bagel crumbs in my teeth?  NO ONE IS GOING TO SEE ME!!!!  Now don’t get me wrong, my eyes and eye brows are spot on.  But the rest....  whatever?👀💋 Found the right mask for the job and headed down the road.  Did the norm when I got to the clinic.  Mask on, sunglasses off, temperature taken, 20 questions answered, gold star sticker telling me I am good to go.  🎖🎖 Since I drank a larger than average coffee on the way, I have to stop at the ladies litter box quick before...

Beach Whales and Adorable Dolphins

As I told you in March after my exciting travels to St. Louis, I again got to do some traveling in April.   Scott and I got the opportunity to go to Los Cabos and stay at the Hilton Golf and Beach Resort.  Not going to lie, it was a tough week.    I was nervous about going thinking Scott would get bored easily…..   I was totally wrong.  We were up everyday at 6:30 to get to go and save our chairs by the pool/hot tub/swim up bar.  Then off to breakfast and back to our chairs for my morning “juice”.  My favorite flavors were either strawberry or banana with a tinge of rum.    We met some amazing new friends and one of them showed Scott how to locate the whales that were migrating.  SOOOO, while I sat in my chair sipping my juice and reading, Scott became the “WHALE WHISPERER”.   Kids were all over that.  And adults too.  He would stand in the infinity pool and point to the water.  Not sure there were whales or not ...

  OMG.  I can't believe it's June already.  The older I get the faster time goes and the less I seem to do. Sleeping has become one of my favorite pastimes and some nights are better than others. The other morning I had my alarm set really early because I had a meeting and needed to be ON TIME!!  Hate when that happens but that's a whole other rant.  People that show up for appts anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes early….  Not going there. So, my alarm goes off and I don’t want to wake up Scott that early.  I usually turn it off right away, hop out of bed with a smile on my face singing a song but this day I couldn't do it.   My arm was completely numb.  So I flop over and try to grab my phone.  I yank the cord out of the wall and the phone falls under the bed.  I then roll on the floor (literally) to find the phone.  Meanwhile my right arm is somewhere else and I can't find it.   By this time my alarm is getting LOU...
