Flers

I am trying to switch up my curses when cursing drivers I perceive as bad. I used to use words that I don’t like all that well. So, I have changed them to the title words – Morons and Assholes. And sadly, there are a lot of them out there. Or maybe I am just getting grumpier the older I get and the longer I dash. Grr.

Yes, it was a two dash day. I quit earlier than I have been quitting from both shifts to try to avoid getting the terrible final dash that the AI or algorithm likes to give me. And I managed to avoid it both times. Woo hoo! Decent dashing day other than that.

I spent most of my lunch break reading and doing reminders. Like finding the posts I bought. I plan on buying a HELP WANTED sign and putting it up in my yard. It is frustrating that I can’t find someone to do the crap I don’t want to do. Which actually makes sense since it is crap and no one really wants to do it. Though I might find someone who actually likes to paint. And likes to do random yard work or things around the house. I haven’t seen the woman (except to wave to) who said that the kid helping her mother might possibly be interested in helping me. Hope springs eternal. If I can find someone soon enough, maybe they can help with the demolition of the pantry – which might save me a shekel or two on the bathroom installation.

The kitchen floor is still wet from the second time that my boarder let the faucet run. Sigh. I have now ordered a pair of water alarms that I hope will alert us to the water issue before it gets too far. Like far enough to drip into the kitchen. Maybe after this second time, though, she will have learned her lesson. It can’t be fun for her to try to navigate through the kitchen with the rug and pad flipped up here and there. I know it isn’t pleasant for me…

I did not call the NYCERDA people today. Poo. I have added it to my reminders for tomorrow. I am hoping to get information saying what hoops one needs to jump through in order to get the tax break. I wonder if they can tell me about the Federal program as well.

I am home and I have done my duolingo. Since I get to pick SM up at the ROC airport late tonight (I think the flight is supposed to land at 11:30pm or thereabouts), I’ll basically just read and maybe watch something until it is time to go – around 10:30pm.

Ok, time for dinner. I am having my left over Reuben and fries from Monday. And I am going to have a side salad. And I think I will cook up the artichokes since they might go bad otherwise. I haven’t made artichokes French in a while so will need to look up the recipe again. I am pretty sure it doesn’t include vanilla…
