Woke up at 8:30 AM. Mimi was reluctant to come downstairs for food.

Prairie Gardens is having a 25% off sale on houseplants through Labor Day. I’ll have to check it out.

Hmm. An article in the Washington Post suggests that yoga might help with cognitive decline in older adults.

Had a nice nap. Joined a bunch of gardening and house plant groups on Reddit.

My dad subscribed me to Consumer Reports so that I could see if I liked it. Did he tell me that he did that? No, not until much later. He’s a goof. I’m debating whether to resubscribe to The Week. It was piling up and it’s expensive.

The swim lessons are up at the uni, but I can't log in to register. I just sent them an email asking them to help. They have several times that would work for me. I’m looking at swimsuits at Land’s End. Actually, I found some swimsuits on Amazon that might work, and they would ship more quickly.

Mimi is now lurking behind the printer upstairs. Weird cat :)

I’ve decided that I really, really hate mowing the lawn. I’ll save my pennies to hire someone to do it next year. Actually, I'm looking at robot mowers for after mom's house sells.

I did see a hummingbird while I was out there though. I bought some hummingbird nectar and need to fill the feeder.

Overslept my nap. The girls want food (done). I need to study Italian (done--I blew through it) and go to bed.

Good Deal!

Mimi is complaining up a storm today. Much is not to her liking.

A person got me connected to my account for the swim lessons, but registration won't open until Wednesday. I think that I'll sign up for a Sunday lesson.

An article convinced me that I should grow bee balm. Maybe by the fence? Or on either side of the walk. No, in the back of my peony-iris beds.

Hmm, I'm wondering if I should look into solar after mom's house sells.

I ordered a pair of jeans one size down to have to try on. I think that I have approximately 10 pounds to go to fit into it.

I don't know why I'm so freaking hungry. I had lunch.

I'm looking at shelves with grow lights so that I can start tomatoes and basil in the basement from seed during the early Spring.

Oooh, I really like this cabinet for my gardening tools. And it's cheap! Oh, someone else got there first. Oh well. I found another, more expensive, cabinet that I like, but it’ll have to wait until I get paid.

Cool. I won't need to spend any money for my class. Now if it'll just be okay to miss the time for my cruise in November, I'll be set.

Score!! I got a patio rocking chair set from Bed, Bath, and Beyond for $100! I'll take pictures of it when I get it.

I wrapped up work and said that I would feed the cats. They had slipped upstairs without my noticing, and they were like, about freaking time, Mommy. They both went downstairs together, which ordinarily would be a problem, but they were united in their quest for food.

I don't know why I'm so tired. I guess that I'll go to bed soon and get up early to work out and study Italian.
