My positives were very positive. Since I don't have to commit to any work hours but possibly 10 to 20 every two weeks (yipeeee, and this does not include the business trip.) due to not much in the lab during summer. I certainly can use this summer to do all outdoor activities, chores, and etc. I still have the Home Health Care work, although I can choose my time for that.. Did get up early about 8 am. Sat outside, enjoyed the silence yet the business of the city. Brought all my papers to be shredded, then off to Walmart to return some items, to my storage unit, hot to the farms to get fresh produce and Italian long hot peppers (mine are just beginning to grow), and finally to the supermarket to pick up fresh mozarella and bow tie pasta. Why in the world would I cook?....lol lol lol lol . Because I don't know how not to...lol lol. Came home and started washing the fresh produce along with my fresh picked basil. Ok...all done with that... Then I'm slicing the fresh mozzarella and cutting the grape tomatoes in half. Door Bell...rig, ring ring. Yes, it's my future great niece, who I expected anyway. She or my niece usually stop to help with the things I cannot do (bending for kettles, carrying the cat liter, and whatever else they feel I cannot do...lol lol lol. I love the way they care, I truly do. Anyway, she came at the right time to get out the big kettle so I could boil the pasta. She asked what else I had under the paper towels...lol lol lol. Well it's all over now because she notices the long hots. I laughed and told her I'd fry them once the pasta salad was made...lol lol lol. She helped me drain the pasta (kettle is way to heavy for me with my arthritis). The pasta salad was all tossed up in right into the frig. The long hots were all dried and ready to fry. She stated she'd have a few tomorrow when I fry more. Did she get shocked.... I told her they were all getting fried up today and only a few stay raw because I like them fresh at times and not fried...She had such a sad face it made me laugh and laugh and laugh.... Anyway, She settled for having them tomorrow on some fresh hard crust Italian bread....lol lol lol. Guess not because today I bought fresh Tuscan bread (am I spoiling a non Italian? Guess I am...lol lol) and she hasn't tried that one yet...lol lol lol. After everything was done and I was still frying she needed to get home to my nephew and their dog. On my way I went and finished frying the long hots. Everything was put away except for the fried peppers. Ok, now what should I do. Well the floors are clean (yes I cleaned the area after I fried) so I decided i wasn't just going to wash the stove top off. Nope I decided to take off all the burners and drip pans and started to soak them. Now keep in mind I just did them last week so they were not bad... I decided to make the stove shine as though it was brand new. Once I get started it's hard for me to stop. I just kept going and going which I felt was great therapy for me at this time do to my anxiety levels lately. i didn't have time to think what so ever... This was a positive thing. All this positive activity today for a positive outlook to jump on here, post my positive and use my negative energy into something positive. Well that enough for today because I do think (see here goes an "I think" instead of "I know") I'm tired enough to not have any negative thoughts before I go to bed.
So, happy for you.
