I had gone to bed at 7 pm last night, was asleep by 8 pm, and never got up until 6:30 am this morning. That was certainly amazing for me. I was really sick yesterday and so thankful that is over with for the time being.
I am so behind, again, it isn't funny. What else is new in my Life other then being behind constantly?
Of course I had to stand out in the torrents of rain this morning with "others" who didn't seem miffed by it whatsoever. Oh to have a dog's life. Once I did get motivated enough I got myself to the Wiarton Service Canada Office as I needed to get a copy of my Driver's Abstract to include with our "Crabby Cabbie" taxi renewal. Phew .... I am happy to report it is squeaky clean thank goodness, so I am good to go.
I then had to drop of something downtown. When I popped in to say hello to my friend, I had been talking about something or another and somebody had said, "but this is Thursday". My face fell to the floor I am certain .... YIKES ! I lost a day, I could well not afford to loose. Dang, dang, and triple dang it all, I had plans for that day and now it is gone ????
Once I got home I then realized Thursdays Rob does not come home for Dinner. My Wednesday Dinner plans were ruined, I say, "ruined" !!!, I say !!! I was terribly disappointed all over again. I suppose I will be trying out a new recipe for Dinner all by myself. What a drag that will be with my best ever Guinea Pig, who I do love dearly, MIA !!!
I am *sad* but I have to use the Pork Tenderloin I had taken out to defrost to make Rosemary-Crusted Pork Tenderloin along with a side salad of Romaine and Red Onion. Dinner all by myself (again) ... *sad*sad*sad*.
Regardless I had to get what I had planned to do yesterday going somewhat today.
"I had to get going on making some Homemade Laundry Detergent as I was right out. I had dated the first batch I had made Sept 1st, with it lasting up until 2 weeks ago. I was impressed. Initially the Borax, Arm & Hammer, 2 x Sunlight bar soap, and Tea Tree Essential Oil cost me $24.67. Today I used up the last bar of Sunlight Soap, but have plenty of everything else left for many more future batches."
"This Homemade Laundry Detergent is so easy to make. Grate 1 bar of Sunlight Soap, add to pot of 3 cups hot water on stove top. Mix until soap has melted; add 1/3 cup each of Borax and Arm & Hammer powders. Stir to mix well until dissolved, then add 8 to 12 drops of Tea Tree Essential Oil. Pour into large clean plastic bucket or pail stirring in 2 cups of boiling water, then stirring in 12 cups of cold water. Mix well. Cover and store until ready to use at approx. 1/2 cup per load."
Yes I use this Homemade Laundry Detergent in my HE washer with no problem thus far since last September.
"With the on and off all day torrential rains we have been getting, we now have our own personal lakes and ponds on our property. Way back at the bush line the mist is still rising from the snow there still melting from the warm air hitting it."
"Yesterday I had noticed our Tree Swallows had returned and were looking for the bird house to nest in. It had blown of it's post this past Winter, so Rob secured it on again last night. I hope they return as I love watching them from year to year.. The Red-Winged Blackbirds were out feeding in great numbers, as well as Starlings (I sure hope that is a Starling pictured) seeking materials for nest making."
