Well, this was another weird
week. Baseball started, but it’s weird (and also I’m not sure how I feel about
getting enjoyment from athletes doing something that could be dangerous to
their health). My doctor gave me a new allergy med to try (I keep losing my
voice - & I’ve probably been taking Claritin for over 10 years), but it makes
me a little bit loopy (see Saturday’s pictures). That was weird. I keep not
reading the book that I was so excited to get – I guess I don’t want it to end?
That’s weird. And I haven’t picked up a crochet hook since last Sunday.
Definitely weird!

I spent some time with Dad
& Sue. Here he is giving me some of his garlic. Does anyone else need any?
He has a TON.
Made another little gnome –
I like this guy a lot better!

The only picture from the
day – mid-morning snack: green Thai mango (speaking of weird – that is a really
weird fruit!), nectarine, and pecans.

New jewelry from Feryl
Designs. I know I say it every time, but this might be my favorite yet!
Sunset!
Wednesday, July 22nd
When I’m at work I put my
mask on & take it off many times
a day – I don’t wear it if I’m in my office alone. This time my boss started laughing when I walked into her office.

Morning glorious!

Dr. M ordered some Carolina
Hurricanes masks (our local hockey team). And apparently even the stuffed
animals in our house have to suit up. Ha!
Saturday, July 25th
Day three of the new allergy
med. This is basically what I looked like most of the day. Got nothing done
(which is nothing new, but this time I had an excuse!).
I went back to using Claritin
last night & today I’ve: washed the sheets & bath mats, dusted, cleaned
the bathrooms, cleaned the kitchen counters (moved all the stuff & cleaned
under it), and vacuumed & mopped. Sadly, I did not go visit Dad & Sue
like I’d planned, but I’ll catch up with them later this week. Did you get
everything done this week that you wanted to?
I hate when meds make me sleepy or dizzy. I take them at night to mitigate that effect. Then it's like a bonus: two meds in one!
ReplyDeleteI did get a few things done this week that needed to be done. We had my mother spend the weekend with us to give my brother a break, so some other things had to wait. But she enjoyed herself, so it was worth it.
And I got to see the grand-dog, too. Yay!
yes I did except that there was nothing I wanted to do.
ReplyDeleteUgh -- there's nothing worse than that sleepy feeling from medicines. (Well, actually, there probably ARE worse things, but it's bad.) Is a Thai mango different from other mangoes?
ReplyDeleteSteve - it is crunchier. It has a very vague mango flavor, but mostly tastes kind of nutty. It's interesting.
ReplyDeleteNo, I really didn't get much of what I wanted to do accomplished. As usual for me if I wanted to get tasks A thru Z done, somewhere around E or F I get sidetracked.
ReplyDeleteI love me some morning glories!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour necklaces - I need more of those - they always look so cute on you!
Love your little crochet gnome <3
Cute little gnome.
ReplyDeleteThought of you when I heard of crocheted/knit masks that you can breathe through, LOL!
Sorry about your allergies :-(
