What have you done today? (Pt 2)

[odeon]

Worked. Got back the Jag.

[MissKitty]

Spent the whole day "camping" in the backyard with the youngest and the dog. Put up the tent, dragged the hammock over to our "campsite" and spent a ridiculous amount of time giggling about anything and everything.

['andersom']

Hung winterclothing. 
Swept floors and lots of other shop work.

In the evening, watched Chocolat, with the oldest and her best friend. We had , of course, and chocolate tea.

[Queen Victoria]

Doctor visits.

["couldbecousin"]

Harvested potatoes with four young ladies, 11, 8, 5 and 3 years old.
My dad did a few too.

He has planted and harvested potatoes with almost all his grandchildren. This was very likely the last time.

  I'm glad you are having these times with him while you can. 

[odeon]

Worked. Had a salary review with my boss. My, that was awkward.

[Queen Victoria]

B'fast with friend.  Went with PA to buy groceries that I cannot easily lift.  Came home, unloaded car.  Went to second grocery, unloaded car.  Went to get new pants, bathed.

[lutra]

Got myself quite a few groceries today. More than usual.. for I promised to make dinner for my mother (plus two of her friends). Also, brought my shoes to the shoes fixer. They needed new soles. Bought myself some aftershave and a pair of scissors after that.

Um, before that, I cleaned the two windows I didn't get to do yesterday and, while my head was elsewhere, showered for the second time (wasn't, at all, necessary/just forgot I already had).

Made mentioned dinner. Pilaf, lutra style.. and folks liked it. Should have made it a tadski spicier/hotter though.. but hey.

Socialized/talked a bit with the retired chemistry teacher and learned something useful about sulphites in wines.. and stones/minerals, like for instance real 'jade' and 'agate'. Okay chap.. and I'm invited to see their new kitchen and his stone collection next week.

Not a bad day, I say.

[MissKitty]

Made some important calls that needed to be done
Ordered meds for my son
Ran errands with the youngest
Laughed ourselves silly most of the day
Started getting my volunteers organized for September at the store.
Washed the dishes
Tidied up the kitchen
Laundry

  Did he ... show you the money? 

["couldbecousin"]

  I posted a lot, complained to Verizon tech support about my twitchy internet connection,
  ate a lot of stuff I shouldn't have, took naps, and watched a lot of TV!   

[Parts]

Finished up the parts of the house I was working on in Vermont and drove just over three hours home.  Just one more trip and it will be done.

You have my utmost sympathies. I hate Verizon. 

I stopped dealing with them all-together about over a year ago after dealing with their clueless tech support and double billing fuck ups.

  Thank you, I did sense cluelessness but for most of my 3 years using them
  for DSL I have had good service, we'll see how they resolve this latest thing.


  What do you do for internet service now, if I may ask? 

[Icequeen]

After Verizon I went with cable, much faster.

Then I moved, and although the houses 200ft in back of me have access to both DSL and cable, I don't...and they refuse to run it.

So....
