Month: February 2018

Another non-productive day.

Made cinnamon French toast for breakfast and veggie burgers for lunch. Burgers (mushrooms and refried beans) weren’t very good, won’t do this again. Pizza for supper, feels like lead. Another day of insatiable hunger.

Called PETA and got in touch with the Enterprise and with the Mashpee Friends on behalf of the coyote hunt protesters. PETA was familiar with the goings-on, said they’d send info to their response team. Enterprise is planning to run a story.

Sent a letter to the editor of the Enterprise praising Mr. Collins. Posted on FB, too; good response.

It rained all day yesterday and part of this morning.

I went with Ron for a consult with his doctor.

Hungry all day. Couldn’t manage to stave the pangs.

Truck engine light went on. Stalled 2-3 times, so I called Peter to give Robert a ride.

We plowed through the grasses today; exhausting.

Dropped off a pound of fudge for Bonnie’s birthday and two lemonades to the boys at iCape.

Don fixed our needlenose pliers and refused payment.

Visited the “Dance for a Cure” fundraiser at the high school. So much joy, what a pleasure.

I dropped off a thank you card to Judy in the Town Clerk’s office for her help with our passport applications and changed my voter registration to Republican.

Dropped off some brochures and flyers from the Conservation Office to Jeff, the outdoor adventure coordinator, at LL Bean.

Heavy vegetable soup with tortellini and salad for lunch. Ron cleaned up and is working on supper, chickpeas and broccoli.

Been raining, heavy at times. Not a good day for outdoor work.

Made appointments for us at OCB in Wareham.

Yesterday, Ron got the folding extension ladder he’s been wanting, on sale at Harbor Freight, and a ladder stabilizer at Home Depot.

I worked on tax inputs all day and finished this morning.

Like a distracted fool, I closed the BofA account that Peter was using to deposit rent without saving off the statements. A nice person at the Falmouth branch ran them off for me today.

I worked hard last year and made decent coin, but aside from paying off credit cards, taxes and propping up Edgewater, have not a good idea of where the money went.

In any event, we are back from a meeting with our tax preparer and we are unscathed for yet another year. Today is National Yogurt Day, and our local shop is doing a 2 for 1, so we stopped to celebrate on the way home.

Ron and I accepted the reality that we are unemployable, for a number of reasons, not the least of which is our physical condition:  between the two of us, we have one semi-good back and two pretty good legs.

We are hopeful that our biggest burden, Edgewater, will be lifted off our shoulders this Spring.

I finally learned how to update a stored procedure in Entity Framework.

Made oven-baked falafel for lunch.  Not bad, not difficult.

Had a small snow shower this morning.
