Good morning, I must admit I ended up spending time yesterday trying to find (finally did find) the info DH needed on the facet that is causing leaking under the kitchen and into his basement shop. Looks like we’ll need a new one since it doesn’t look like it can be fixed. If it was on of the old types, he could fix it but many of the newer types of things like this aren’t made to be fixed. After that, I spend hours in my craft room working on some journals I’m making for some friends. With that, I need to do some of the things on my list the last two days.
Wednesday possibilities: —Grocery shop today (looks like rain will be hard tomorrow) —Dr. appt.🧚♂️ —Refrigerator pickles🧚♂️ —Homemade pop tarts🧚♂️ —Piano practice🧚♂️ —Hang up laundry🧚♂️

Good morning! Wish we had got grocery shopping yesterday since the storm is really here. We are safe, just lots of rain and some flash flooding warning. In our city the biggest thing we worry about is down trees. However, in this area, the first suggestion of Hurricane has people running to the store and buying all the milk and bread. I’m not concerned about the bread (one of the benefits of baking your own) but I am totally out of milk. Hoping I can find some for my morning coffee tomorrow (now you see my true priorities).
Thursday possibilities: —DH has dr. appt🧚♂️ —go to store🧚♂️ —practice 🎹🧚♂️ —family budget and bills🧚♂️ —pick something in the zone to do —read for 30 mins at least

Thanks for the mention of "new flour"....I checked my bag of all purpose flour and found it expired a couple years ago! Yikes! I bought a new bag, cleaned out the canister. I guess that's my best kitchen chore for the week, LOL! And sweetie mopped the kitchen floor while I was out grocery shopping, yay!
Have a wonderful Happy Birthday, Cathy! Mexican sounds great...I will have a black bean enchilada in your honor, LOL!
Weekend possibilities: --WW zoom meeting & WI at home ✅ --bookkeeping chores ✅ --decluttering --zoom workout --practice --walk outside! Beautiful day!✅ 2 1/2 miles at the former golf course. It's quite a breezy day, but folks were still out there playing disc golf. On the "back 9" I saw meadows of Queen Anne's Lace, several monarch butterflies, & some little goldfinches feasting on thistle seeds --church --wind down
Be well! Carol
