How is everyone doing during the quarantine? I’m doing fine I guess. I did something stupid the other day and I really hope that it doesn’t come back to bite me. I’m expecting a house painter to come early next week to start painting my house. In order to do the front, I had to get rid of my hedge bushes.
They’ve been there for years and have grown quite big and tall. I took a chain saw to them which made for quick work and after the front was exposed I noticed a large hole that went underneath my front stoop. I had to purchase some bags of dirt to fill it in before the painters showed up. The stupid part is when I went to Lowes to purchase the dirt. The place was packed. It looked like they were going to have some sort of give-away. I should have turned around then but I didn’t. When I went to check out the line was over twenty people long. With my health the way it is, I should’ve turned around but instead, I stood in line with all those other people. I won’t be doing that again.
The house looks bare now but at least they’re cut down now. The only thing I have to do now is pull up the stumps. I’ll do that later on. The grounds too wet to get in there with my truck and I don’t want to ruin my yard with ruts or worse get my truck stuck.
As of this morning, I’ve lost 9.2 pounds. I’ve got to get back on my treadmill so I can lose the other five pounds so I can get on my bicycle. Plus, with the virus going around and us being quarantined, I’m making more and more trips to the refrigerator which is not good. I’ve still got this nagging cough which when I get out of breath makes it hard for me to breathe and I have a coughing fit. I’ll either start back this evening or wait until Monday to start.
I have a doctor’s appointment come Wednesday. I’m sort of excited about going. I’ve been keeping up with my sugar and it’s down from 9.9 to 7.2. I’ve already seen the medical test report. So I’m pretty excited about that. My triglycerides are high and I need to do something to get it lower.
I’m near to 400 followers now. When I started this blog I never thought it would be this high. I’m about to go through and delete a few because some I have found are nothing but spam and sex promo sites. I have no idea how I got those followers. Anyway, thanks for following me.
Stay home and stay safe everyone!!
Please don’t delete me – I swear mine is not a sex or porno site. (Sorry, couldn’t resist)
I actually thought about going to Lowes or Home Depot this week since I’m off work anyway, but then decided it would be foolish to risk my already delicate health for the sake of a few flowers. I’ll just clean up the mess in front of the house and leave it at that, unless the pandemic ends in time to plant flowers. (Wish I would have thought to put in perennials instead of annuals last year …)
Lol. Not to worry. You’re one of my favorites.
