Busy day, again.

.

I could not get up early, though I came very close. Simply put, the motor just would not turn over. I almost made it at 8:00 and at 10:00, but no go until 12:00. At least today I felt like I was close. That may sound funny, but most days when I have not been able to wake up, I do remember getting up and tinkering with the alarm one way or another, but there was no doubt I could not rise. So, I am going to keep trying. Mornings will, once again I hope, become my norm.

The temperatures around here are definitely on the rise. As the sun was pretty much set, while driving past a bank on my way home, I saw that it was still 78 F. That may have something to do with my sleep, my body might simply be trying to rest when it is cool enough for it to rest, knowing damn straight I probably cannot sleep at full sun unless maybe in fervid dream states I know I do not want to visit.

I called, again, to contact the woman with my insurance information. She, again, was not available. I know I left a voice message if I have not done so in the past. I had thought to skip this chiropractic appointment since I had nothing to give them, but decided missing one this week already to oversleeping I did not want to miss two appointments. As well, they could not find the police report that I am supposed to send to the other insurance lady. Well, I tried. I will keep on trying until it is done. There is little else I can do.

I did accomplish some things today though. I finally made it to the butcher shop and picked up a peck of meats. Brots, Mexican type brots (I hope), beef ribs (cut against the bone), hamburger, and steaks. I invited my friend over so we could test out my new grill. He paid for his part of the meat, and then some. I will have to have him over for hamburgers and brots next Friday. As well, I had been promising him I would take some pictures of his pistol, one he wants to sell, the one that bit me, and post them where I could, online, in an attempt to finally get it sold at a fair to him price. First I did not have internet, then I could not find my camera, and then today when I found it, it needed batteries. So, I got that going and did take some pictures of his pistol and will explore where and how to post the pics for sale.

As well, while I was picking up the batteries, I decided to also pick up some tomato plants. I had hoped to have cucumbers going too, but it is far too late for that and there were no plants of that nature. So, I picked up 3 or 4 tomato plants of various types, 2 different bell pepper plants, and 2 hot pepper plants. They are in the ground, watered (after dark with room(ish) temperature water). I also found some small planters to perhaps begin a small herb garden. I picked up 4 of those. There was enough dirt left over from the planting to fill those. I added the little bit of remaining water into those and the dirt inside as a final touch. None of the plants, except (I think) the orange bell peppers looked all that good. They seemed healthy enough, but not very strong. We have a place here in town that I have been meaning to visit, a garden type place. I may have to take a stroll tomorrow before Church and see if they are open and if so, what they might have. Watering the plants as I return, I suspect. The sun will only be on the plants half of the day, then it goes over the house. I suspect I can water them once shade is on them and after it has been that way for a bit.

I still have not messed with the sink. I am either feeling a little sting, I have trepidation about the outcome (or maybe more, finding that there is more to it even now), or I have simply been far too busy with far too many other things, at least within the paradigm with which I have to work? We will see. Maybe later tonight, maybe tomorrow, maybe Sunday, maybe not until next week! Heck if I know, or care, temporarily.

Time to cool off. Chill, read some news and blogs, and relax though. The steak was fantastic, having some company is always good, getting some things accomplished was nice. And it is a weekend! No calls asking for things I don't have, no appointments, no nothing unless I want it. Church, though, for the first time in... a long time. Confession first though, if I can round my butt up and get there in time. I do love Church, really. And confession too, honestly. I just hate all the pomp, circumstance, dress up, and timing (at least, all those things all at once). I really am not all that coordinated those ways.

Have a good night.
