Losing Track Of Time...and Motivation

Displaying dates and times your way in Linux | Network World

What time is it? OMG is it really that late? How is it that in this time of Covid 19, we lose track of time? I have been self-isolating so much lately, I have been literally losing big chunks of my day. The sun starts to set and I realize I literally haven't done anything worthwhile all day long. Yes, I did injure my wrist recently and should be resting it. I have been doing light housework, like cleaning my patio chairs and sweeping my patio. I transferred music from my old itunes to google music....Now when I go outside I can listen to that music on my android mobile phone. Cleaned my dishes, blah, blah, blah. Nothing really worthwhile. Then it was 3:30 pm ...! WTF?

I woke up late and that's okay. My amazon delivery showed up at my door early...Yay. I Took my daily temperature and at first began to panic a bit. It was a bit high and I checked twice, then a third time which dropped more. Then I recalibrated my thermometre and came up with the same temperature as test number three. Whew....normal. I did have a few sips of coffee and and a hot flash - screw you menopause - so we will retest tomorrow... In the meantime I have made a few masks to wear out in the evil world to avoid catching the "Beast" as Chris Cuomo calls it on CNN. I have listened to some old CDs and generally not really eaten all day. Pretty pathetic. Most likely boredom. I am working Wednesday through to Friday. Hopefully that will pick me up a bit.

Anyways, not much going on today. Making dinner is next before retiring for the evening with some Wordscapes word game fun and tv. Sad but true, I am out of energy today....Until tomorrow.....

Christmas Dinner 2023

Christmas dinner is not a challenge for me, unlike most people all over the world. Depending on your main dish selection and the corresponding side dishes, the difficulty level can differ for anyone, but I always suggest keeping it on the simple side so you can spend more time enjoying yourself than living in your kitchen. It was just my partner and me this year, keeping it a bit low-key and quiet. He just started a new job and didn't want to go too crazy, doing a little extra studying during the festive days off. His decision was leg of lamb, which I was happy with as turkey for two is either too much trouble or not special enough if using turkey thighs for your main dish. Using my kitchen and cooking tools (and skills) was a great decision, making our neighbourhood festivities available while also having time to cook. After visiting the local pub and enjoying a few rye and cokes (beer for him) we tried to gather an appetite, filling up on Christmas brunch with my family earlier i...

Heat Waves and Hot Flashes: Mid-Fifties As A Woman

Sitting at the bar I frequent  often, cold pint in front if me, I chose to leave my hot apartment to find some air conditioning. The last few days have been hot in Vancouver and my local has been enjoyable with air conditioning keeping us all from melting away. Walking down here I noticed the temperature was 28c and was looking forward to a little break from the heat. Of course, after a few days of feeling a bit cold in here, the AC is not working. It can be hit and miss as they keep the folding sliding windows open for air flow, but it does end up over taxing the AC system. Sitting on non-cloth seats - it can get a bit sticky in here.  Earlier today I was on a hot bus, of course I catch the bus without AC and I could feel the sweat trickling down my back. Stick to the seat is also a lovely feeling, possibly leaving a small sweat streak, like you would find on seats on workout equipment in a gym. Yuck. The worst part of it all is when you are still suffering from h...

What To Expect When We Are All Free....

It's funny how we all have been reacting to this self-isolation as if we are caged animals, abducted from the wild, pacing in our surroundings, wanting out. We all are stuck in this situation due to a little thing called Covid 19. This novel coronavirus has spread around the world, passing through our breath - well, droplets from our saliva through coughing, sneezing and even breathing. Every country has it currently and Covid 19 has killed thousands of people world wide. In combat of this deadly flu bug, we have been separated from our friends, family and even work-mates in many cases, to avoid passing on the bug. Symptoms don't present at the beginning of the contagion, which is why we could pass it on without even knowing we are infected. Since early March, we have been told by the Chief Medical Officer, to stay inside, self-isolate, stay away from large gatherings and to wash wash wash our hands. Being cooped up in our own personal spaces due to a deadly pandemic o...
