Got the garage straightened, scrubbed the floor got it dry with fan, put down clean throw rugs out there.
Brought in my throw rugs from line, most of them. I'm mopping in the basement, maybe a 1/4 done. Some of it like the store room I really don't mop, just vacuum. Should have swept first, I'm mopping up dog hair. It's not really dirty, just lots of dog fur.
May mop the rest before I mop, also have dogs bedding clean. Now I need to clean dog and have his nails trimmed.

Just got in the mail my referral to a cardiologist on the 16th. It said I had an abnormal EKG, oh great. I have been having chest pains and reported it to doc. She put me on low dose aspirin. She said if it happens go to the ER, I told him we are if it happens again.
Just what I need with a visit coming up and plans to go things, damn.

Filled my car with gas since it's the first of the month and stopped by the Walmart Neighborhood Market for some groceries. Watched 3 hours of QVC selling Dooney & Bourke handbags and managed not to buy one (yea me) but I was certainly tempted. Some ladies go for shoes, my downfall is Dooney & Bourke handbags. Stopped by the local Christian books and accessories store looking for a bible cover but the ones they had were very masculine in leather or the cheap vinyl. I'll order one from a local company called Day Spring instead. That's all folks....another boring day in the life of an old widow lady.

I thought I was awake way early again but no, 6:15 am so much better than 4 or 5.
A friend played guitar at a going away party. He'll get a load of bookings!
Worship. My broken wrist starts swelling so I slipped out early. I walked. Ice and rest on couch until lunch and shopping at Walmart and Sam's. A friend gave us a $25 Sam's gift card on Fri. Bought a precooked beef brisket.
I just realized I was going to a Shakespeare Traveling Troupe that started right now. Oh well.
Snack attack! Pickle juice, pickle, frozen low carb chocolate no bake cookie. I need to bake flax meal bread and make more cookies.

The usual Sunday: Sunday school followed by the worship service. Pastor gave a wonderful sermon today and besides my heart, he touched many others. Going back tonight @ 6PM for a special evening service followed by ice cream social. Nice way to end the day and the weekend.

I was tempted by one of the Kindle deals today. But it was first in a series, and I am not going to drop $35 on books right now. It turns out that the public library has the series for kindle as well so I checked out the first few.

I've sent pictures of the gutted bathroom before and after to Moonbeam. I'm not sure where to put them on the thread anymore.

Looks so good,. Is the shower a walk-in or roll -in (for wheelchair)?
Never mind, I enlarged the picture, looks like a step down and will have glass doors....very nice!

Before was more bizarre than after. That crazy woman flushed steel wool down the toilet just to cause me trouble. She didn't realize that I was replacing the toilet so it was never going to back up. A wheelchair can't get through the 1942 door frame so if I'm wheelchair bound, I'll be living elsewhere again.

Looks good, zibazinski. Next time you put aluminum foil on the bottom of your oven, take some before and after pics of that too.

She was angry at baby daddy and wasn't in a position to take it out on him so she took it out on me. The buyer. She'd have sabotaged anyone who bought "her home."

She'd have sabotaged anyone who bought "her home." I guess I had you confused with someone else, or am just plain confused but I thought you bought from someone moving to assisted living. When you posted I pictured some little old lady flushing her SOS pads.

No. I bought from someone who thought this was her forever home so instead of doing boring things like replacing a 17 year old hot water heater, put in a new pool. Very upset that baby daddy, who is married to someone else still, took a transfer and having a baby with him and no job, she had to go with him. Plus the house was in his name so if she didn't follow him, she'd have been homeless.

Or as a poster pointed out-never use it!! I think you can use it if you put it on the lowest oven rack. But I do have a product that will actually clean the oven is short order, it's called Bio Cleaner and QVC sells it. My neighbor bought it when they had it for their TSV and received 3 jars. She kept 1, gave her daughter 1 and me 1. The darn stuff actually works!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear it will clean anything of anything with little if any elbow grease, and since its a paste made from clay there is nothing toxic about it.
