Diarist A12 Day12

Tuesday 10/1/19 EDLM Tuesday, October 1, 2019 5:20 AM 

Start time of the day is 4:55 even though I was supposed to sleep in until 5:20. My brain switched on & I began thinking about work and the things that need to be taken care of this week. My step daughter is getting married on Saturday so I’m sure this week will be a blur for her. 

While I was getting dressed to go walk on the treadmill the cats were milling around, getting a drink from the water fountain but not particularly saying “hello.” I let the dog out of her crate. She barks at the fierce enemies out in the woods but comes back in when I called to her. I filled all food bowls that needed to be filled & put fresh water in the water bowls. 

Walking on the treadmill is “me time” & I am currently watching Gotham on Netflix which keeps me occupied as the treadmill goes up & down changing my heart rate & making me sweat. 

While I was getting a shower I thought of the things I needed to take care of today at work. I also thought about my plan to decorate for fall/Halloween after work since my husband will be gone until later evening at a meeting. I didn’t get to it over the weekend. I’m sure all of the animals will be glad to “help” me. 

Once at work, I tackled my in box & reviewed what was on my schedule for the day. An hour and a half meeting will take up a chunk of time in the morning but I doubt the meeting will actually last that long today. It didn’t. 

I went home at lunchtime to see my husband & take a break from work. It was VERY hot out today. Forecasters said it was going to be the hottest for this date recorded. I’m ready for fall weather. 

The afternoon was pretty uneventful. I did go & get my flu shot since my employer provides it free of charge. My arm started getting sore about 3 hours later. Hopefully it doesn’t get any worse. 

When I got home I changed my clothes & tackled the task of Halloween/Fall decorating. That took a while especially with the “help”, if you can call it that from the animals. 

I stopped for something to eat & then finished up. My husband got home from his meeting around 7:30. We chatted for a bit & then I had to start getting ready for bed so I could get up earlier in the morning. So that’s about it. Until next time.
