Hi everyone. Weather is more typical of April now, anywhere from 64 to 80 degrees. I hate having to dress this time of year because I don’t know whether I’m going to be too hot or too cold. I guess I should go back to layering.

I was sitting in my living room and had to run outside to bring my laundry in from the line as we just had a light rain shower. I hope it's not the end of the nice, sunny weather as going outside for a walk in the rain is not as fun!

Actually, it might chase some people off the streets so they will be easier to avoid! :laughing:
 
Question for the Canadians on the forum. I’m watching the series Heartland and I love love love it so much! I’m noticing whether say the word project or progress that they pronounce it pro-gress and pro-ject as opposed to prah-ject or prah-gress. I’d that a Canadian/US thing or just something that’s done in the series? I think it’s cool. 😁

I love that show and I was watching it but my over the air channel that carried it has disappeared. :(
I went over to Central 28 by myself to get food from Sweets-n-Eats. I am going to support them as long as I have money to do so! I got a "Mexi bowl" which is awesome and I have devoured it! :D I am going back over there for a special release of one of Central 28's beers. They are tapping a chocolate version of the oatmeal stout called Horses for Courses. They are another small family business I want to support. I am trying to help out and wish I could go to all the local small businesses around here! This pandemic is devastating to so many!
 
Well, I did manage to get the petrol today. I looked at the weather forecast for the next few days no it seemed to be rain and wind for days to come so I decided to venture out. Only got some drizzle on me... Got some petrol, so it will last me a few trips.
 
I have been having really vivid dreams as I have been coming off two medications (as well as 5-htp) since the 1st of April.

I was having a dream that my husband and I were locked in a house with loads of other people during the pandemic. They were having a party! Then we tried to shut ourselves in our room away from them. I kept saying "Are you sure all the cats are in with us?" and then I woke up and realised I must have shut one of my cats outside in the cat enclosure early this morning!

I must have heard her hitting against the locked cat flap and it went into my dream. Poor thing, it was raining, even though it is covered over it must have been chilly. My cats are so spoiled that it was probably traumatic for her.:eek::laughing:
 
Morning/afternoon y'all! It is still cloudy this morning but I hope the sun will make an appearance. The flowers and my veggie plants want some sun now after the rain yesterday. I will read on my book today and later go get some more beer! I have to make a list of necessary items to stock up on to get me through the "no income" period. I got my stimulus money and have paid a few bills already. Since we do not know when we will get back to work, this is challenging to plan what and how much to buy.

I heard that type of pronunciation a few times too. Very curious...
 
I had to go out to see a GP yesterday and really liked the stand in doctor. Not only was he wearing a face mask but there was a giant screen on the desk between the two of us. He also wore his longish hair in a bun with a coloured band. He also had one earring and an orange coloured bracelet.
Moreover, he kept me for nearly an hour and was very sweet.

Now, that was a memorable experience for my very first outing since a whole month. :D

He sounds like a hipster. ;)
 
I'm feeling so tired again even though I was in bed before 10 pm again last night. I had almost 12 hours sleep. It's the after effects of the medications.

I'm going to start one of my new books today. I'm still feeling chilly. I'm wondering whether to out the heating back on! I'm going to check the weather now.

Morning/afternoon y'all! Yet another cloudy morning here today. My plants are liking the rain though! Today I have to go to the library to pick up a book I reserved. I am happy they have this curbside service! I need to look on the website for some more DVD's. My son has to come by to pick up some papers that Colin sent me to print and the laptop I "serviced" for them. It is to do with his college financing though he is studying from home these days. I guess there is no printer available for Colin at home. It is kind of inconvenient to have to email me documents.

For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to give E his current favourite thing for dinner: pasta with houmous.

HOUMOUS EVERYWHERE. In his eye & all in his nice freshly washed hair too 🤔 :joy:

He enjoyed it though.

How is everyone elses evening going?
