For those following along playing the home game this is day 23, and I am finally feeling a bit better after this cough came into my life in late August. I’m still prone to a good cough, but it has been few and far between so far today. I also woke up this morning and my chest innards didn’t hurt (any where near as much as they have done). I believe this signals that I am on the mend. Thankfully. Glad for it. The nasal congestion didn’t stick around for more than one day, so that’s a tick in the win column aswell. Yay!
Dropped the kids at school, and had a very peaceful stroll around the farm. Have fed the dog his breakfast while I digest mine. This is living. Not much on the docket today. We are about to shift into a week of solid rain, so many more leaves will start to come down. It won’t feel so strained to start picking them up if my trees drop a good percentage over the course of the week. I just hate to start while the trees are still 95% full. Waste of time & effort if you ask me. Now if you can see sky, or the neighbours homes through gaps in the foliage then that’s a different story.
I started to wash the walls and baseboards yesterday and was surprised at the state of the main bathroom walls. Yikes. My kids must touch the back wall almost constantly given the level of colour change I saw after washing. Not to mention the colour of the rinse water for the sponge I was using. Ugh. Positively heinous. I’m going to pull the letters off the main hall, and move the goal tracking reading chart onto a door, rather than on the drywall/paint. Should clean up the look of the hall a wee bit.
Then it’ll be the living room art wall. That might cause a few tears if I know my kids at all. Too much change all at once will set them to spiraling out of emotional control. It’s fun, you should try it. Or not. You do you. Ok, I’m going to get started now. Ciao Bella!
