Needing A Nap

 Progress on my coffee bar is non-existant. Just as well, since we had to go purchase a new refrigerator. Delaying the installation will make it easier for the delivery of the new fridge.

That is me, trying to shed an optimistic light on my frustration. The rain yesterday and today brought cooler temps, so I will refrain from hiking up the drive to play in my She Shed.

I ordered some decals for the vehicles. Hopefully this will make it easier for me to locate my car in a parking lot. I can always hit the alarm button on the key fob, but then everyone looks at me when I approach the car. I wave at them as I drive away.


Looks like my Oscar. Oscar would have been the most likely one to chew through the trunk to stick his head out. I miss my old boy, he was mean to everyone except me. 

Since the delivery of the new appliance is imminent, I should be tossing the contents that are out-dated. A nap sounds like a better idea.


I think Eddie agrees. See his dandruff? The Claritin doesn't seem to be working. That's not true, they aren't scratching as much or with as much intensity. The flaky stuff makes him look like I don't take care of him.

I hate dreary days, especially when they come in a non-stop series. A nap is in order!

    Having just gotten up from a nap, I heartily agree with your thought process. I've shied away from putting decals on the painted part of my car, because if you leave it there long enough the area around it will fade from the sun (and the part under the plastic will not).

      The car might outlive me! My nap was very nice. It was just chilly enough to need a blanket and I slept two hours, with my sidekick, Eddie. He follows me everywhere.

    Those "flakes" are nothing. They look good.

      He continues to get better and there is an allergy med just for dogs, but it is really expensive. The Claritin is not as effective, but the vet recommended it as a substitute and it won't hurt them, so ... I figure a few more weeks and all the dead skin and a couple of nice baths, folowed by Mane and Tail conditioner and he will be back to his glossy coat.

    Eddie's long flowing locks put my lovely lady-mullet to shame!

      And Eddie's locks are without the effort of haircuts!

    Naps are the best idea ever! I have one almost every day. Sometimes two. Eddie has a lovely coat.

      Naps are so lovely, just me and Eddie. Toni and Bo get down, then bark to be lifted up again! Eddie is so docile and sweet .... and unable to jump down!

  Let's see if I did this right! Hopefully I will be able to add some pictures. Only one way to find out .... This is where it all started. On a rainy day in October, 2021. The first view of the rest of our lives. Here he is, the love of my life pondering this property he had proclaimed to be over our budget.  Here is the front view. The drizzling rain makes the house look like it needs a good power wash. Not to worry, we have one. While I am not a big fan of the screen door entry, this can be changed. This is the view that convinced HeWho proclaimed this property to be over the budget I had set to make an offer that very day. You can't see it from this picture, but a trout stream with rushing water hides down below. I will eventually get a good shot when I finally start to make some steps down to the water. We are old and do not want to fall and suffer any broken bones! The area behind the stream is never to be developed. This existing tiny shed will become my sewing room. I ...

  While awaiting the newest stove delivery I have been working in my She Shed, but the last several days have been overcast, damp and chilly. This has kept me inside. I tired quickly of Netflix and TV in general. Idle hands make me anxious, so I employed the help of HeWho sits and got down all the boxes of photos to sort. I have been saying I would get to them one day when I had nothing to do ..... Strolling down memory lane with each stack. I kept stopping to text pictures to my kids and laughing with them. Then I hit a stack that made me profoundly sad and happy all at the same time. It was pictures with my sister on a cruise with her friend that became mine, too. We had so much fun despite me being homesick. Here we are departing. The winds were high! This is my sister. My big sister, always ready to take care of me. My only sibling. This is Gloria, partner in crime to my sister's antics when I wasn't around. Three three of us indulged in a rum drink called "the Love Co...

Final Chapter!

  So, you may recall that the delivery did not happen on Tuesday, but was supposedly changed to Thursday. I was skeptical. I was right to be skeptical. HeWho patiently waits on hold, was told that the stove had yet to arrive from Atlanta. They were unaware that he had been notified by text that the stove had arrived in Murphy the day before ad was ready for pick up. When he confronted the store manager with this bit of information, the excuses began once again. The delivery truck was already out for the day and nothing could be added. The stove did not arrive before 6am and therefore could not be added to the day's deliveries. Judge Judy is apt to tell a witness that if you tell the truth, you don't have a need to remember what you said earlier. Finally, HeWho has had enough! He told the liar on the other end of the phone to cancel the order and refund our credit card. I was listening and can tell you I have never heard such relief in a man's voice as the liar's had. He...
