Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Erika!

Gary is home now, I am exhausted and the last few days have been chaotic to say the least.

Happy belated birthday, Erika! So good to see your font. I hope this is a wonderful year for you.

Today's what do I have in the fridge for lunch combo worked out well. Leftover roasted cauliflower, half an avocado, sun dried tomatoes, feta cheese, and a bit of balsamic vinegar. This salad made my taste buds and belly quite happy.

That sounds great!

The contractors are here bright and early, hammering away. Did my morning run as soon as Matilda headed out the door (late, as is tradition on Picture Day).

Oh, I look forward to the pictures!

We had the hammering and sawing this morning too, at last. The workers stayed away for 10 DAYS because that is how long they read the virus can hang around, despite them working outside and us being inside. And negative. Anyway, they are back again today, but it will be raining all afternoon so the 2 hours they were here this morning will be it for the day. At last they are paid by the hour? Frustrating, but I'm trying to stay chill about the things I can't control.

Happy belated birthday, Erika!

Your construction workers are vastly more cautious about Covid than any tradesmen I've been around here, Laura.

They are super paranoid. They didn't work for the last couple years pretty much at all unless it was an unoccupied property. They are neighbors and friends, so I am more patient than I would be normally. All said, I have more understanding for being overly cautious than for the idiots who haven't shown any caution or concern.

Tired and stressed, as usual.
