Gracie Spent the Whole Day Outside

days_unfoldingOverslept until 8:15 AM. Gracie was still asleep, and I got myself up. Progress.
Oliver somehow got out of Zara's room (that guy is good at opening doors that haven't quite latched). He and Lily are chasing each other.
Bella came in. Gracie’s still outside.
I wish listed a vibration plate thatone_raido mentioned. That would help with my balance. Actually, I bought a balance board, which is cheaper.
Dozed lightly at lunchtime.
I was outside trying to get Gracie to come in, and a guy walking a dog waved at me. That little shit Oliver wants to eat Zara's food, so I put her food away. I need to close him in a room in order to feed her.
I wishlisted some emergency lights (mentioned bysusandennis). I especially want one for upstairs because it's dark up there and the stairs are treacherous. I need more flashlights too. Storm season is coming. I have a weather radio by my bed. Okay, I bought a couple of rechargeable flashlights. It's a start. I need to keep one by my desk.
Oh! I have more money than I thought! But it's good to not spend money though. Maybe I will subscribe to the exercises though. The few that I've done seem to help.
It's 3:30 PM. Gracie looked like she wanted to come in, but Bella ran out, and Gracie wanted to play with her. I'll try again in a half-hour. I should have shut Bella in the bedroom. Apparently I left the garage open the other night, but there wasn't anything of note in there.
I completely forgot that I had a therapy appointment at 4 PM, so she got to see me with bed head and no makeup. (She said that "She's seen it all, especially with telehealth".) She liked that I'm doing volunteer work. She said that even if the lump in my breast is cancer, breast cancer grows slowly and is easy to cure. She thinks that I should sign up for the yoga class on Saturdays. She was amused by my dogs that refuse to come in.
Gracie finally came in at 6:30 PM. She was out for 10 hours! She was hungry, not surprisingly.
The stupid Amazon delivery person left the package outside the gate and it was stolen. I can’t ask for a replacement until tomorrow. My bidet was in there and cost $$. Maybe I should start using an Amazon locker. Or take Gracie out on a leash during the day. I think that I'll do the Gracie leash bit. She won't be happy, but I'll let her out without a leash at night.
Anyway, the critters are fed. I need to make dinner (done). I’m feeling chilled, so I threw on a robe. I’m trying to decide what to do now. I should work on the bathroom, but am feeling unmotivated. My phone has a low charge too. I’ll go post.
I'm out of soda and almost out of food, so I needed to place a grocery order. Because groceries and gas are so expensive, I'm going to wait until I get paid again to subscribe to the exercises. I should get the book one of these days. I also sold some stocks that are hemorrhaging money.
Another reason to get to bed early is so that I get up on time.
