Wednesday's Weather

My right shoulder hurt when I awoke on Wednesday (I would guess from all the kitchen counter and window washing I did yesterday). It was supposed to be another gorgeous day, and it was!

I was very proud of waking up to the alarm clock (for a change) and was right on schedule, time-wise. That is, until I was doing my injections, watching the news. As I’ve said, this takes a while, so when I finished I stayed in bed a bit (just to finish watching whatever episode was on the news). I must have dozed off, because it was a half hour later when I woke back up. Yikes!

So, I raced through the rest of the important stuff (I didn’t empty the trash, for example) and got to work 5 minutes late. That’s when I discovered I neglected to take my lunch.

So, I went out to the Newburgh Grill and had a mini Greek salad and a Gyro. The salad came first (of course and unfortunately) and I ate about half of it before my sandwich showed up. Even though I was pretty full, I forced myself to eat the whole gyro (which was great, BTW).

I took a walk around the strip mall the restaurant is in to try and work off some of my full feeling (and it truly was a great day).

Back home after work, I turned on the news and found we broke another record. Well, actually we didn’t just break the record, we smashed it! It was 83 degrees F today, and 74 degrees was the old record.

One of the cats had barfed on the bedspread, so I washed it and everything else except for my dirty work clothes. My shoulder still ached, so I didn’t wash the picture window (as I had planned). Instead I took some pictures.

I forgot to mention B___ had called yesterday to check up on me and while I was telling him about my hyacinths and daffodils blooming (seemingly overnight) he said that besides those, his forsythia was in bloom, too.

So, I went out and checked and sure enough, mine were too (I have to get out in the yard more, LOL!) So, I got the camera and took some photos of them and other things I found flowering.

Back inside, I grabbed the phone, which was ringing. It was Jake, again just checking in. He said that at one point early in the day he looked online and it was 2 degrees warmer here than it was down in North Carolina!

After we hung up, I worked on the photos and published them to the Blog. I finished up about 8:00 PM and then got the clothes out of the dryer. I put the bedspread back on the bed and folded the rest of them.

I still felt full, so instead of that Rueben sandwich I keep threatening to make, I settled for a protein drink and my evening meds. Then I did my inventory for the infusion folks so I can call them tomorrow and order my refills.

It was a little late for watching a movie, so I settled for reading until bedtime.
