Getting winter coats ready and re-discovered the one I most want to wear needs a button sown back on and another one tightened.

It actually took me 3 days to mow one yard measuring 80x125'. The battery only lasts 33 minutes so I was practically running to finish before the battery died. I didn't make it. It started drizzling on day 2 and I said screw it - at least the rain will cool me off. Yesterday I wanted to attach the grass bagger to pick up those damn sandspurs because they sometimes get stuck in Hannah's paw but I couldn't figure out how to do it even though I had no problem last year. After trying for 10 minutes I so wanted to fling it across the fence into the neighbor's yard but I resisted the temptation.

I miss my condo.

Options are better than only one way to get things, right?

About the kids. Can't they just deny you told them? Do you bring along a device to record yourself telling them or parents this? Openly recording looks odd. Surreptitious recording could seem creepy. Otherwise the traditional way to prove a communication would be a cease and desist letter via an attorney which marks you out as the bad neighbor in their minds and really steps up any tension. I hate that this kind of thing can seem necessary at times, but here we are.

I agree with keeping toys and skateboards. Speaking of, then you can sell them online.
Hey, I can make some money off this! LOL

I have outdoor security cameras that automatically record so I wouldn't have to actually figure out how to record a conversation - I would just walk outside and say "Hey guys, I'd rather you not play in my yard so please don't. Thanks!"

If that doesn't work, then I'll message the mom. I do want proof that I have told them to please stay off my property unless they are visiting me.

If it records audio too, then that's perfect.

My FWP: Was gonna stay home on a cool, overcast day. Looks colder than it is. Also looks like a trip to the store is needed.

Went for pedicure. Wore flip flops of course. Got the good nail tech—hooray! Then she Attacked my callus with that grater thing, changed her angle, and shredded some skin off my foot. Ouch, ouch! She said sorry, and put antiseptic on it.

Pedi done, I left for nearby store to buy Mylanta and Gaviscon. I parked car, and walked down a concrete walkway to store. Walkway has levels; toe of flip flop hit one of the steps that raised the level, and in a half second I was on the ground after hitting my knees, then my hands, then my nose. Ouch again. My glasses fell off, scratching a lens. The worst thing was figuring out how to get up. My knees hurt and I couldn't bear the thought of kneeling on concrete. Finally I knelt on my purse, got up and resumed my errand.

And my new pedi is messed up.

As soon as I got home I took an Aleve.

That sounds like more than a First World Problem Silibran.

Hope you feel better Silibran!!




OMG. Moving.


Seriously, it is a good thing I started cleaning stuff out over a year ago, the scheduling of stuff is insane. The moving price is insane so I am getting rid of more stuff, selling it online, schedule dogs, vet, car, movers, airline reservations, inspectors.....

Plus, DH was starting the whole "we have plenty of time, we don't need to do that now" blah, blah.

"Okay, why don't you make the schedule and show me?"

He did.

Now he is "we need to do this NOW!!!!"


Yep.

Well, I had been getting a pedi. And when I fell, I intended to buy Gaviscon and Mylanta. So I thought it qualified as first world.
