Baseboards and Shots
We went to get our Covid and Flu vaccinations on Wednesday. I was going to wait to get the pneumonia. I didn’t want to get all three of them at once. But both of us ended up getting the pneumonia, too. That night, I didn’t sleep a wink. I was sore and achy and felt wired. I napped for two hours yesterday, but that barely made a dent. Don also felt achy and sick yesterday. Today, we’re feeling better, though our arms are still quite sore. I won’t get all three of them at once again! I think I’d much rather wait and stretch them out.
So I’m sitting here trying to wake up because I had that kind of sleep you get after you’ve been sleep deprived – almost a drugged sleep. But I’m grateful!
It’s raining today. Tomorrow night it is supposed to go down to 29, so that will be the end of the zinnias, etc. Since it is going to be warmer after Sunday, I’ll transport all my plants to the shed, which worked out nicely last time.
On Tuesday, I painted and cut baseboards for most of the rooms in the Beacon Hill.
I still have to add baseboards to the den and also some ceiling trim in some of the rooms.
And, decide on the paint color for the exterior.
Stay safe.
Happy Friday.
Flowers & Puzzles
Thank you for your lovely comments on our anniversary! We appreciate your kind words.
It was a quiet day for us; full of talk about the day we met, the day we got married, how unbelievably lucky we are – and expressing gratitude for our marriage and our love for each other. We are blessed.
Yesterday, I spent some time on the Beacon Hill, painting and installing baseboards in almost all of the rooms. I’m holding off on the den until I’m sure of furniture placement. You’d think it would be easy but wonky rooms, uneven floors, etc., make it anything but. I also reinstalled some wallpaper on the second floor landing because I saw some errors that needed to be corrected.
Today? Vaccinations. They always make us tired and sleepy so the rest of the day will be about rest.
I’m reading Life Out of Order by Audrey Niffenegger who wrote The Time Traveler’s Wife, one of my favorite novels. This one is also about time traveling. And I have another book ready to be picked up – Our Noble Selves by Kate Atkinson. These are books that have just been published so I have limited time in which to read them.
The completed puzzle “The World of Witches.”
I love this “World of….” puzzle series. I learn a lot (there’s always a key describing every thing in the puzzle) and the illustrations are beautiful. The next one – I’ve yet to order it – will be The World of The Odyssey.
Stay safe.
Happy Wednesday.
