Slice of Life - What are you up to today?

[lovesbabysquirmy]

LadyF, that is NO FUN!  Time for cameras and an air horn!  LOL 
Our front yard is on a corner and so many dog walkers think it's okay to let their dog stop on our property.
I think I have a reputation as the CRAAAAAAAAAAAAZY lady who will shriek at you and wave a bag in your direction and demand to know if it's ok to come use your yard... so the regular dogwalkers know to keep moving past my house.  I have to go out there less and less...

[BlackCurtains]

LadyFrostbite, that's so frustrating! When I was at my parents place, our next door neighbor would let her dog out the front door and most times he would come to our yard because we had a dog too. Our dog was small, hers was not! Fortunately, those people moved out.

LBS, I hope your daughter feels better soon!

Frostbite, oh no!!! Time to up the stakes to keep the area clear for your children xxx
Squirmy, hope everybody at Squirmy Acres gets well soon xxx

The Halloween project continues. The headpiece & a third of the body is done. Working on part 2 of the body & one of four other pieces (yep, four, & they're pretty large). Bakana will look amazing in it!!!
The exercise continues. Some days I hit the outdoor gym, some days I do indoor exercises from Youtube videos. I can get some quick ones in while waiting for dinner to cook so I often do them in the kitchen, so I can grab a couple of tomato tins for small weights if wanted.
Sunday was good, & so was this morning. Friday is not happening for two weeks, but that gives me more time to do other stuff.
Waiting to hear more about applying for the new benefit... I hope I hear soon
Ordering more stuff, some from Gaspode, some from eBay, some via email from a person PKW referred me to who 3D prints replica accessories. So far I have replacement Spot (Suzie's dog), & a Custom bigger dog in the same pose who's a cutie.

I wanted to do some laundry and take a shower today, but I couldn't sleep last night and slept all day instead. I know I can still do those things, but I'm afraid they make too much noise. Although I think my super noisy neighbor might have moved out? I haven't heard anything from her in a long time. No screaming, no stomping, not even music.

Now it's four in the morning here in Finland and the clocks are being moved back an hour! I'm very happy about it!
(I don't like daylight savings time at all.) Winter time welcome back!
 

Many people in my country have already celebrated Halloween this weekend, but I'm going to "celebrate" it on 31.10, like most of you here on the forum.   I don't do anything amazing and I don't disguise myself in any way, but I light the first candle lanterns of this autumn in the yard, add battery-powered light chains and enjoy horror movies (this year I could watch some of my favorites.. e.g The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Terrifier 1-2, Alien movies, A Nightmare on Elm Street movies, etc.)

sewing a hat...  being the negotiator when my husband and my child snark out on each other... cleaning the kitchen AGAIN... meal planning...

I am starting to hate Sundays more than I hate Mondays LOL

I met up with an Internet friend for the first time yesterday. Had an absolute blast! 

[Rainlove The Pegasus]

I went and got pumpkin donuts this morning with my parents! It was cold and windy but worth the wait.

[BlackCurtains]

I spent most of the day in bed despite sleeping last night. I feel better overall but I'm still very tired.

I really need to vacuum.

I went to my niece’s horse show today.  Long drive, chilly, and I was hungry😆

[Ponybookworm]

Been hardcore on Bakana's Halloween costume & got it done JUST on time for Saturday deadline!!! Was out for a bonus coffee morning & stopped at the pharmacy for the essential last yarn ball.
Done most of the usual stuff except slept in yesterday to the point I'm up now, & missed a few days of exercises due to being so craft-focussed. Worth it though...
Got some stuff in, as I'll have to cut down fun purchases over winter.
Was supposed to get a visit on Thursday re new meter, but nope & I still get texts to call. I HATE calls!!! Going back to the email chain I've saved on Monday. Also will find out what's happening on other issue. I need to get that right so I have the cash I need.

[Heart Of Midnight]

After taking a shower late Sunday night, I finally managed to change the sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers.  It's been too long since the last time.. The sheets should be changed often. 

On Monday afternoon we got a bag of apples again. We already have three bags of them in outdoor storage. 
My spouse's parents get them for free from their friends who have a lot of apple trees in their yard. They already have places full of jams, juices and fresh apples, but we still have room! We eat many every day. I don't make jams or juice because we also get those from them if needed.

Spent the day in bed again. I feel like there's no reason for me to be awake

[Ponybookworm]

HOM apple-tastic!!! Here apple season is long gone but I stewed a load of them ready for making apple pies, & the stewed apple is portioned up in the freezer

So yesterday I was catching up on crafts I'd held off due to doing the big project, mainly more Pony jumpers & such. I'm also sorting some stuff out, including getting some jumpers on Ponies.
Showed off Bakana's costume at coffee this morning, & people liked it & were impressed at it all being hand-made!!! Got some messages in the Co-op & topped up the meter as I have to do that every 2 weeks now. Had to call (which I hate) to get the new meter in, & they've given me the 11th (Monday) in the afternoon. So far I see no issue with that.
Got emails from support & they're going to get somebody else to email me. I do NOT like that I have to apply for this new benefit...
Also got my notification to apply for Warm Homes, did that, & got notified I'm getting it.

Ponybookworm Oh, apple pies! 
It would be nice to bake them, but maybe it's better for me to just eat fresh apples. Pies and cakes are my favorite treats that I can't resist! For some reason, my pants have shrunk quickly this year!
