I put my Fitbit on the charger this morning and forgot to take it with me. I didn't get credit for my morning hike up the mountain.

How quickly we obsess with it.  I hate when I don't get credit for my exercise.  I have manually pushed it forward by moving it up and down while I was reading-stupid me ;D

I need to shop for foodstuffs.  I'd better get a move on.

I'm up, I'm up - almost eight hours of sleep and what a weird dream I was having. I'll give you a little precis: Dear reader Jeanne showed up unannounced but I seemed to be living at the Shores or some high-end apartment building.  She of the Evil Eye was there, and then another Jeanne showed up unannounced and I thought what are the odds of two dear reader Jeannes showing up at the same time.  I don't think I'd shaved in a week and I was still in bed and wanted to stay there.  She of the Evil Eye was using Tide pellets of some sort rather than the powder in the box were hundreds of safety pins (I do understand the significance of the latter, I think).  I suggested we spend the day together walking on the Ocean Park pier boardwalk or something but only after I got up.  Then I got up.

Never mind that I only know ONE dear reader Jeanne or on Jeanne period, never mind I've never used Tide pellets (do they even exist), never mind I couldn't go a week without shaving - it was WACKY.

We pretty much got my entire first floor cleaned and mostly organized.  I have no idea where anything is anymore, but it's organized. :-\

;)

The problem with organizing.  Of course if everything was organized to begin with then it would not have to be moved and lost ;D

No, the problem is that my mom did the organizing and she didn't tell me where anything is!  At least, if I'd have done it, I'd know where everything is.  But then if I'd have done it sooner (or on a regular basis), she wouldn't have to do it for me. ::)

;)

Then you are better than I am.  I know where things are in my mess but rarely where I put them after I organize.

I resemble that comment.  Just this morning, i was looking for a calculation I'd done a while back, knew exactly where it had been sitting for a long time, but forgot what place I'd "organized" it.

The best thing in the auction, a Norman Rockwell Saturday Evening Post original cover painting failed to sell - opening bid was 1.5 million dollars.  A little high end for this particular painting.  But a painting of a chimpanzee valued at 4 to 6K goes for 19K.

Sunday afternoon greetings from HOME!  We had a smooth 5-hour drive and got here just in time to see Rob off for work.

Had Wacky Noodles, which were actually Wacky since I got fooled by the cream of mushroom soup I bought - it said "healthy choice" on the side, but since the only cream of mushroom soup they had was this and low sodium, I just assumed it was the normal cream of mushroom but it most assuredly was not.  It had a different consistency and taste, and therefore the Wacky Noodles were not as good.

Well, today there have been more battles about the cleaning than there were yesterday. ::) And we're not done yet.  I MUST have my way when union things are legally required to be kept!  But it's still going.  It won't all be finished today, but at least a really big chunk was gotten through.  We figure just another one or two sessions after today and my house will be done.

Carrie Fisher's stuff now being auctioned.  And the bidders are just a sorry bunch - paying so much for so little just because it was Carrie's?  I mean worthless stuff.  It is amusing to watch.

I just spilled my drink on the carpet and am trying out a new carpet cleaner spray on it. It has to sit for five minutes. I hope it works!

Larry, so sorry to hear about your fall. Three or four years ago a similar thing happened to me. I was getting up from the sofa when my left leg simply wouldn't hold me and down I went. As if that wasn't bad enough a couple days later I fell again on the stairs next to the driveway. I was laid up for two months as a result.

I've found that what seem like balance issues can actually be the result of weak back muscles. Maybe it's time for PT again. Or a different approach.

VIBES YOU FEEL BETTER SOON!

DR George, I've only used that sort of bottle once and I had a terrible time with it! It was not designed for people like me who have no mechanical aptitude!

Jane, I'm sorry you're having so much trouble with your shoulder again.

Vibes it clears up and you don't need another surgery!

Congrats to MR BK on the auction win!

Notes were excellent today.  I am not a member of COSTCO, but perhaps I should join and see what it's all about.

Jack, do you know anyone nearby who shops at Costco? Members can bring in a nonmember. You could get the Costco Experience before shelling out the $55 for the membership.
