Today’s version of a foggy morning.
As I write this, the sun has finally broken through. The mornings are cooler now, but the temperature will go up to 76 today.
I was very busy yesterday, picking up some new jeans I’d ordered (I desperately needed them), running some errands, cleaning, doing laundry, unclogging the bathtub drain (success!), watering houseplants. Today I will be coaching Ben for an hour and figuring out where to get my COVID test on Friday. This is not the rapid test. It’s the PCR test, which needs to be done 72 hours before I report to work on Monday. Rapid tests are not a problem. The PCR can be, in terms of getting the results on time. So I have to do some research today and make some calls.
It will work out.
The problem with jeans – the kind that stretch, which I need these days – is that they eventually stretch out of shape. And then I end up looking like a misshapen old woman. Usually I ignore that fact because I’m always at home and Don doesn’t care. But now that I’m going out in the world for work, I need to look a bit more stylish. Actually, a lot more stylish.
No news yet on Greta, though I did just see a comment on Facebook from my nephew’s wife saying that she was “slowly improving.”
I watched a hummingbird dine on my zinnias yesterday. And we’ve had a doe and her young fawns dining in the back forty. A lone monarch flitted though the garden. And I heard a Carolina wren singing yesterday morning. At this time of year, I’m so happy when I hear bird song, other than crows cawing which seems to be the predominant melody at this time of year.
Okay. I’m off to get ready for my coaching session.
Stay safe.
Happy Monday.

I am happy to hear Greta is improving, even if slowly. Having a sick child is the worst feeling in the world. And, we’ve had too many sick children lately.
Jeans. You wouldn’t think that a simple item would cause women so much consternation would you? Glad you found a pair that fits you. I was straightening up my closet the other day…found some new jeans I’d forgotten I bought before Covid. Good news, they still fit…only because they are slightly stretchy… lol.
Good luck on finding the correct test you need. You would think it would be easier by now, since we’ve been in this so long. Enjoy your day! ;)

I know what test I need, I just want to make sure whatever facility does it can get the results back within 3 days, or I can’t work.
Thanks, Donna.
Stay safe.

The new jeans made me laugh. Yes at home I can get away with my old stuff. No out in the world much for me yet.
Claudia says
Yes, out in the world in my old jeans was and is embarrassing!
Stay safe, Linda.

Sending all good thoughts for Greta. So scary.
I have to find something to wear to a wedding. I hate shopping on a good day and up here even worse. But maybe this week if I go early on a crappy day, no one will be out! Three cheers on the new jeans!
Claudia says
Oh, I hate shopping too! I’ll do anything to avoid it!
Stay safe, Jeanie.
