Slice of Life - What are you up to today?

[Artemesia's Garden]

I'm working from home today, looking at seed care results for commercial geraniums. It's 25C today so still hot for England but not as hot as yesterday. I went outside in my break and checked my tomato plants.

Mostly just doing house stuff, I'm on Day 5 of self-isolation and I have a delivery later coming from Tesco (they are warned I have tested positive). I should put in an order for new work trousers, and clean about the house. It's pretty warm today!

I'm going to finish this custom pony I've been working on for a month and a half then finish my first needle felting project, a pumpkin

Less fun, I need to clean the cat boxes and vacuum the living room and bedroom.

The weather is hot and humid, with the heat index it's already 96F and it's not even 10AM.

Got three shark wuzzles: melon shark, bee shark, & eaqgle shark, aka Hajgle. Hajgle is my fave of the three. Will make a savoury pie later. Got everything ready for it. Had some caramel bites picked up at yesterday's coffee morning as a snack. Now checking online stuff. Next stop: what made you smile

Will likely be helping a relative with yard work later this evening. Hafta fold laundry.

Boo.. but then yay, a new computer! I only get a new computer once I'm scared the old one will die, so it's quite a relief.

Pie went ok. Love the shargle; he's so fluffy!!! I called him Wedge & he accompanied Bakana in bed with me last night. Woke up tired. Hope to make cake today

I didn't finish either of my projects yesterday. I was really tired yesterday.

My plans today include finishing those projects and breaking down some boxes, tidying up.

Same; I know my beloved girl will give up the ghost soon, she's lived on two countries and I've had her for close to ten years (and I use my laptop A LOOOOOOT, it's rarely EVER switched off) and she's pretty much held together by sheer force of will ... but the idea of having to switch to a new one?? No????

I managed to get the bins out (I'm out of my 5 day self-isolation period), I've more rubbish to put out so most of the day will be getting my house in order now that I can take rubbish out properly.

I'm off to work in the office/growth room today. I need to count some Hibiscus seedlings and pot up some geraniums. Manny will be picking up some overtime this evening so I will probably rest or do some gardening in the evening. We dismantled the bed underneath the front window because we needed to put the gravel somewhere else. So I now I need to put the troughs and rocks back somehow and make it look tidy.

Congrats on the pie. I really enjoy cooking for Manny and sometimes guests. And congrats on Wedge too!

Vacuuming in the heat must be exhausting. But the results are worth it! I hope your day went well. I need to get a hang of the time zones...

I’m watching re-runs of friends (love that show!) and putting stuff up for sales (non-pony). So far I’ve sold for 200$. I usually spend summer time sorting out stuff I don’t need anymore. It’s kind of fun!

Yesterday I sorted through my clothes and ended up giving away four full plastic grocery bags.

i got my new computer but it wasn't the one i asked for. not enough processing power, screen too small. so now i have to wait until i hear back from work about whether it was a mistake. getting a new computer there is so difficult and frustrating. i'm also trying to get an updated computer for another team member and the company is making a fuss about it. anyway.

today is pay day and i didn't see the deposit in my account. i have a paystub so i did get paid. i logged in at least 5 times before i noticed a stupid banner notification that they're doing maintenance so my balance may not reflect recent changes. yay for almost having a heart attack thinking i can't pay bills.
(update: i see the deposit now) 

otherwise i'm expecting a mostly relaxed day. not too many meetings so that's good. i'm hoping to get Italian for dinner. i'm already feeling hungry.
