The Downstairs Is Done!

I have charged GoPro and camera batteries. Go me.

I added a scale showing 120 pounds and a sheath dress to my vision board. I hope that it helps. I did row, but the video that said “scenic” wasn’t and I can’t get the resistance above 1. I need to contact the company. I’m trying the “small goals” approach and doing it for 10 minutes and will build up. I forgot to feed the cats beforehand and Zara was meowing from upstairs. I suck.

I practiced voice and guitar. Go me. Now I need to go back to bed.

Woke up with my alarm. Mimi came down for breakfast long after Zara had eaten Mimi’s food, so I gave Mimi some dry food. It’s tough having two cats on different feeding schedules.

I found my box of missing camera stuff in the plant room. Good.

The downstairs is done (except for the garage)! We finished the breezeway and three and one half closets downstairs. We started on the crawl space upstairs. I found my mom’s dog’s ashes, so I need to figure out what to do with them. We just have four more sessions because then the organizer’s baby is due, but she said that she could connect me with her helper, who is great on getting trash out.

I can’t stop sneezing from the dust in the crawl space.

After lunch, I ran to Walgreens and picked up my prescription and some tweezers. Then I went to the copy shop to print off my music theory book. The print job was more than the maximum allowable print job, and I used up my three print jobs trying to get it to work. So that was a bust. I ordered the current edition from Amazon, but it's different from what my teacher has.

I'm not able to go swimming because apparently I was still using my old debit card to pay for the gym access, so I need to get that fixed. But first, it's nap time.

The scale thing on my vision board is working. I wanted a snack when I came back, but I looked at it and did without.

Got up from my nap with the alarm. Made a list of things to do.

Cool. I got the Maui t-shirts. And I love, love, love the tweed blazers that I’ve been getting. The black and navy pumps that I got are perfect. They’re comfortable and fit well.

Gathered cash for the hair cut. Watered the orchids. Paid my gym bill. Booked Italian and French lessons. Finished my Italian homework. I need a short break before doing the music theory homework. Booked a singing lesson in November.

It’s gotten late, so I’ll do my music theory homework when I get back from the haircut. I need to practice voice and guitar (done!) Now to sleep....

New Haircut

I got to the hair salon way early. The stylist texted me and said that she had a cancellation, and could I come earlier? I said, “Sure, I’m outside.” I got a really cute bob haircut, chin length. She blow-dried it straight, and it made me wonder if I should get a styling brush and bring my blow-dryer to Kauai. I made another appointment with her in December. I bought a combo blow-dryer and styling brush in one. It’ll be smaller in my suitcase.

Did my music theory homework. Practiced guitar and voice. I just pulled a muscle in my back and think that I need to lie down. I'll email my teachers. Mimi couldn’t care less that my back hurts. I’m warm and that’s what matters. Had a nice nap, but my back still hurts. My nice music teacher asked me if I want to reschedule.

Hmm. I need to take out the recycling and do laundry, but my back still hurts. There was something that I needed to do online, but I don't remember what it was. I need to pack, but the same issue applies, Maybe I should just go to bed early. Zara wants food. Mimi is complaining too. Maybe I could study French. Oh, I need to pick out my BistroMD meals (done).

Hmm. shadowkat on DW mentioned that her mom is at a retirement place called The Cypress at Hilton Head. I looked at some of their videos and kind of like the place. It's something to keep in mind as I get older. They have skilled nursing care there. Maybe I should plan a trip to Hilton Head in the future.

Oh, I can work on my vision statement (done?). Oh, I need to do my French homework too (done). I signed up for the LingQ app to learn Italian and French vocabulary. I think that I'll go to bed now.
