I squared away the insurance for the Mission today. I gave my agent the name of the manager for Azalea so she can get the certification in her files.

Went to my dentist today. A piece of the filling had cracked off. He had to cut all the old stuff out and put in the normal silver kind which is a lot harder. I was pretty scared about it all. I was afraid I might have to get an extraction. They are out of network with our new insurance. I’ll have to do some kind of work around.

The girls waited very patiently. I appreciated that.

I set up an appointment for a cleaning for my Mom and me.

I took K and the girls to Perimeter Mall for lunch. I liked this mural at PF Changs.

These were cool.

I was thinking about getting new cologne for my birthday. I sprayed different ones on Penelope’s arm and wrote what they were. I thought it was a pretty funny bit and Penelope just played right along.

I sent my septic tank guy Miles’ contact info. He asked me if I knew an arborist. I just happened to!

I sent Jimmy Kendall (Miles’ dad) an invitation to come over to our house for pizza and ice cream cake on Sunday.

I’ve been so busy the last two mornings that I’ve had to study Spanish in the evening. That’s really rare. Usually, I get up early.

Keep on keeping on.

Nine years ago today, I stopped eating meat.

Always great to have the grandgirls here. Fun for J and K too!

I’m working on our home insurance and the coverage for Azalea.

Cleaned the area around my St. Francis shrine.

Swept my outdoor carpet.

Trimmed branches from my eleagnis plant.

Put the foam on the mirror and put it in its frame. Drilled holes in the frame so I could attach the backing of the mirror to it with screws.

Cleaned the glass on the front door.

Swept the kitchen and laundry room.

Vacuumed the house. Cleaned the filter with one of my new brushes.

Big thunderstorms rolled just past us.

I told the grandgirls that Penelope’s new toothbrush had 85% more cleaning power—than a stick! I pointed to the super tiny print below the picture as if that’s what it said. I Iaughed and laughed.

I’m glad that J found some more clips for her hearing aid in the box the device came in.

We get a kick out of the photos Facebook shows me. This shot is from 2012.
