Thursday and House Cleaning Day

I slept fitfully last night but was up at my usual 5:00AM. I feel alright this morning and am in the process of eating my breakfast.  It's almost 6:00AM now.

I took my floor mats from the car out last night and cleaned them. They were pretty dirty from getting in and out of the car in the rain. They look much better today.

When I start watching the news, I will begin my mopping while the commercials are on.  First I will check the weather and look to see if the cats are out there to be fed. And I believe we are  still forecast for rain today. However, this is Kansas and anything is possible.

My allergies are going nuts this morning. I have sneezed my head off and blown my nose over and over again. 

More later... 

Blondie and Scruff both came for breakfast...fist Scruff and then Blondie. They have ate their fill but I am leaving the food out there for awhile since they are both still out there.

I have got the mopping finished.Soon I will start the vacuuming.  It's 7:30AM now.

It's 8:15AM now and I just finished the vacuuming. I also cleaned up the sweeper. I washed the filters and have left them out to dry. Tomorrow morning I will dust.  I am still planning to take Nancy to her two hour hair appointment today at 12:45PM. I hope she is dressed and ready. 

I was cleaning up the driveways of leaves when Nancy called me and told me she was "sick" and couldn't make her two hour hair appointment. I no longer believe she is "sick" when she tells me she is.  I think it's a cop out to keep from getting dressed and ready for her day.  I told her to call Anissa and tell her and let her make the decision. Anissa put the fear in her and told her she had two hours set aside for her appointment and she had better make it. So Nancy called me back and said she would be ready at 12:45. That's what I thought.  

I went over at 12:30PM and picked up Nancy. Dale, her nephew, had taken her check book and debit card. We stopped at the bank and she withdrew some money for her hair. As it turned out, he stopped by the hairdresser's and wrote Anissa a check. So Nancy kept her money.  Neither of us had eaten all day so I drove down to the Copan Truck Stop and she bought our supper.  I left the tip. Afterward, I took her home. I wanted to mow.

It's 5:25PM now and I just finished mowing the front yard. As you can see, it looks a lot better without the leaves.

It's time for the news now, so I will get back to this later...

Marilyn Rutledge called me this evening to see if tomorrow was the dinner Asbury Village cooks for us at the senior center. I checked my calendar and it is. I will bring her a box of the food after I finish with mine. She won't be back home until 12:30PM so that will work out for both of us.

I watched the news and then at 6:45PM, I took my bath and got ready for bed. Of course, I won't actually go to bed until 9:00PM. But at least I am ready. After mowing the front yard I am plenty tired.

Margie, you take such good care of your yard. I need you to take care of mine:)

I do all I can to get some exercise Suemn. I still have a hard time doing the west side yard which is half again larger then the front. So I seldom do it. I let the girls or Krystal mow when that needs it. Right now I am mostly concerned with the leaves. They are such a mess!

The back yard is much smaller and I can easily do it.
