It felt like three days instead of one. I went slow and took my time and got almost everything on my list accomplished. They were all easy things. I decided not to be outside in the heat so I didn’t pull any weeds. I did take a picture of the first blooming gladiola. They are such a unique color. I should have several more stalks as summer progresses.
One of the things on my list – although far from easy – was to removed the chipped paint from my toenails, trim & file and repaint them. It’s always tough for me because I don’t have a steady hand, and the inhaler I am using makes me even shakier. By the time I was done I had blue paint on my SHIRT!!!! But my toes at least look decent. The shirt is currently soaking…
I had just finished ironing and balancing my checkbook (to the penny – yea!) when Kath stopped over with a container of chicken noodle soup from Eat n Park. I will have it for my supper. I ate a late lunch because I took my time this morning. I did some sewing and some rearranging of my dresser drawers, got a hot shower, then made French toast. By then it was 10am, so lunch was about 2:30pm. I’ll be hungry when I finish this.
I slept considerably better last night, but still slept on the recliner. I may try it in my bed tonight with an extra pillow. After the hot shower I felt good for most of the day, until I did the inhaler. I have to weigh the pros and cons. I get very shaky and cough for about 45 minutes straight when I do that, but it does help me open up airways. I think I am on the right road. Tomorrow I have 2 things I have to do for Kelly so I will be out for a bit.
July 8 – Tell about any State Fair or County Fair experiences. “We always went to the Dayton Fair every year & sometimes we went to the Indiana County Fair. I liked to watch the stage shows from the grandstand. The one I will always remember was a young dancer, Liz-Tiz. I tried to do her dance for months after.” Mom has made other references to Liz-Tiz in her journal.
