Day 119: Bed Shopping

 

This is option number 1: I really like the shape and style of this one.  And it looks high enough to still put my stuff underneath that needs to be stored there.

The bed frame I have now, doesn't have a headboard or a footboard. So, my mattresses keep sliding off the end and my pillows falling down between the head of the bed and the wall and I'm sick of it. Seeing as I sit on my bed with my computer and work. I'm always pushing the damn mattress back on the bed

This is option number 2: Pretty similar just more of a curve. I think both could work with the size of my room and furniture. I think the wooden beds with headboards and footboards are too clunky.

Though I'm going to keep looking in case I find something else I like better. I'll let you all know one I find the one that calls my name.

Until tomorrow, remember: Take a quiet moment each day, and tell yourself you're worth it

Day 117: Dr Appointments

 

Mum has a doctor appointment today at 11 am. She wants to see about her cough. I bet they stick us with the damn flu needles while we're there. I was also correct in saying that poor Graceful was sick for the entire weekend. I knew it was bad because she didn't go to her swimming lesson, or dance practice, and she never misses dance practice. So, of course the other two had to turn into little ferals for the weekend. getting into as much mischief and being as loud as they possibly could.

Today I am going to work on the Rebel Rouser portion of the synopsis I have been trying to finish writing. As a couple of people, I don't even have a clue who they are... I'll figure it out in the end.

I have to get some more of the soiled washing done. At least the stuff I had on the clothes airers is dry, so if it rains, I can just hang it all out under cover.

Until tomorrow, remember: An apple a day keeps the doctor away ~ Especially if you peg it really hard at his head.

Day 114: Sick Again

 

Hurricane and Graceful are home from school. I can guarantee that Hurricane will be sick for a couple of hours and then she'll be fine. Graceful will probably be sick all weekend. Graceful is not often sick, so, when she is she's usually really sick...She will more than likely sleep all day, and Hurricane will be running around annoying the hell out of everyone. At least Monsoon was at kindy, so the three of them weren't home.

I worked some more on my synopsis; while watching more renovation shows (Fixer to Fabulous) I still like Hometown better. Ben and Erin really are my favourite ones on TV at the moment.

I really need a haircut. My head is literally pounding. actually, I don't know what hurts more, my head... my back... or my feet.

Until tomorrow, remember: There is no off switch for your brain... when insomnia strikes - learn to ignore you active in your face brain...so you can sleep

Day 113: Taking A Day Off

 

1) Today I'm just watching house renovation shows and re reading my synopsis. I think there is something off between Jess and Grace's book and the synopsis. I'm not sure if it's names or the time frame.  

2) I'm having a peaceful day with all three kids back at school. I only have the cats to contend with.

3) I did manage to get the kitchen cleaned up.

4) I have a massive headache today, So, I'm probably due for another haircut.

5) Not really hungry today, so just having something light for lunch/dinner.

Until tomorrow, remember: Today is a good day to sit back and drink coffee.
