I veg out...

As I said in the last post, I slept lousy and so I felt like crap and kept yawning all through Thursday.

I should have stopped at Home Depot and got the parts I need for the toilet, but I had this foolish notion I would just go home, grab a bite and take a much-needed nap.

So, I made a toasted tomato sandwich for lunch, reset the alarm and tried to fall asleep. Of course, I failed. I finally put my shirt back on (I took it off so it wouldn’t get wrinkled as I “slept” and drove back to work.

In the early afternoon, we had a brief, heavy downpour from a “pop-up” storm. I had decided NOT to go and close my sunroof and the windows I had cracked (there was no rain predicted) when Fred, a co-worker, said, “Oh, sh*t, I left my sunroof open!” and dashed out. So, I did, too.

By the time I hobbled out and back, I was soaked! Seriously, it looked like I’d entered a wet t-shirt contest. The damn sun came back out about 15 minutes later, so I did walk around outside in the parking lot, trying to dry out. But I spent the rest of the uncomfortable day damp and chilled.

When I got home, I watered the container gardens. I checked the rain gauge, but there was just a trace of water in it, so next I watered the raised bed garden. Finally, I cleaned out the reflecting pool, stuck the hose in it and turned the water on slow to flush it out.

Meanwhile, I had the washer going, washing the bed spread. Yep, a cat (I’m not naming names) had coughed up another hairball.

When I had everything done, it was around 7:30 PM and I was hungry. So, I made a cucumber sandwich (delish). I started watching a movie, but fell asleep around 9:30. I woke up later, shut everything down and went to bed for real.
