    Morning ladies
    Thought I had almost caught up up but somehow I'm 6 pages behind.

    Going for afternoon tea today with the Ladies Who group, I'm a little nervous, it's a smallish group this time but I only know one of them slightly. I've made it a goal for the year to attend more outings without my good friend Jean, and I'm better with smaller groups, so I'll take a deep breath and enjoy it!!

    Mum feeling a little better this morning, I've said I'll take her for an afternoon soon, I think she'll enjoy it. She is on the waiting list for physio and we are hoping this will help her be a little more mobile, we'll see.

    Better get my chores done, I'm trying to keep to my morning routine, not easy. I've also been decluttering for lent, (one item a day for 40 days) some days I have done more than one item, but it's getting difficult now, need to up my game :)

    Love to all <3

    Allie- Almost to the end! I have only ever walked away from one job with no notice. The man had just bought the flower shop I worked at. He was a mean, rude man. I spent 2 days in tears. On day 3, I left at lunch and never went back! It was my second job though. Fast forward a few years, he sees me at our shop. He says, I was trying to figure out how I knew you, then remembered you worked for me....uhoh.....He said, you were a great worker! Lol! Hugs to you!

    So local colleges have shut down classes. University of Dayton is sending everyone home as of 6pm tonight. All classes will be conducted online. A bunch of the students got together in the streets, had a party, got out of hand (again), police called, left a huge mess in streets! I don't get it! A few years ago they actually destroyed cars during a street party. This is an expensive college! I don't think I would be comfortable sending my kids there.

    One of my renters is a single young lady. Last year the senior lady next door died in her home. She wasn't seen for 3 days (unusual as she was quite nosey). I mean looking in people's windows nosey. Yesterday she sends me a news post. Apparently another death about 4 houses up. I hope she doesn't get spooked out. This one was a senior.

    On to page 35.

    I wish my university would finally do that. Right now, they're "threatening" us that if we don't turn up to class it will be deemed that we're not engaging with the course and could be removed from the course.

    I figure less human contact is better.

    Because you’re thinking storm preparedness out of habit? I know when I think of prepping, I think of things that don’t need refrigeration.

    Good morning ladies <3

    What I am grateful for during this time of possible quarantine....

    1.) Amazon and other online retailers who can generally deliver what you need within a day or two. Drop it in the front step.
    2.) Local grocery store pickup (Walmart-place your order online, and when you go to pick it up, it's delivered to your car) and even delivery from our local Safeway. And the pizza guy, lol.

    Regarding our gut microbes, here are 2 important ones that are mentioned in the literature I'm reading: Akkermansia muciniphila https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6223323/ and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5492426/ I am not a microbiologist, nor do I play one on TV, but the the upshot on these bugs is that they love many resistant starches and fermented products, and colored fruits and veggies. We've been told to eat from the color spectrum and eat fermented foods - these (very technical) articles kind of explain the why, and there are many other resources in the internet. These bugs also help with obesity, can help heal leaky gut, and boost our immune systems. Kind of interesting reading if you are bored or have spare time. ;)

    Tomatoes have started to germinate and will be moved to the "nursery" today. They'll be basking under a full spectrum flourescent lights and keeping their toes warm on heat mats. Of course, a little snow is possible this weekend and highs of 41 - their garage environment is unheated but I think they'll be fine. B)

    Make it a great day, ladies. <3

    I have my fingers in my mouth virtually non stop when I'm at home. I reckon once I'm through the door my own bugs are all around me so I'll wash my hands carefully when I come in and then just carry on. The important thing is not to bring new bugs through the door.

    Lanette - The problem is that any object has been touched by multiple people, so to be absolutely safe you would have to disinfect everything. For me that is a step too far. I have been putting things away after shopping with my gloves still on, carefully peeling my gloves off, and then washing my hands.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    How many times a day do you touch your face?

    The health advice includes washing hands with soap frequently throughout the day and avoiding touching your face.

    When I hear that my first thought was, "That's OK, I hardly ever touch my face" ...

    Then I started paying attention to it, and it's like my hands are glued to my face!! Rubbing my itchy, sore eyes. Checking my broken tooth. Scratching my itchy nose. Brushing my hair out of my face. Pushing my glasses up.

    I'm trying to really focus on not touching! And I might need to start wearing my hair back.

    Oh, speaking of hair, I've started washing it 6 days a week instead of just 5 and I might go to 7. I'm also debating about having about 6-8 inches lopped off the bottom. I can almost sit on it now. It's possible it might be healthier to have it slightly shorter.

    JRs touches my face more than I do lol 😂. So trillions for JR touching it on top of my touching.

    JR grabbed the box of brownies y cake 🎂 he was so excited put it in the ground tried to open them himself. Don’t worry mopped y waxed the floor last night had too all the potty training accidents.

    Realized today after someone said something that many of you like my hubby family wears their nasty 😷 out door shoes inside! I was brought up to use rubbing alcohol to washing machine on all kids shoes. We have outdoor shoes y indoor shoes.You do not wear your outdoor shoes inside! Considered Rude by 80% of my family (culture thing). Hubby leaves his shoes outside or on a mat (the fancy ones) .I put JRs outdoor tennis shoes for going to stores y Doctor in a pouch in his closet (Mickey mouse shoes y sandals for indoor/ plain cheap one for going out) .Same with mine like JR got pouch.

    JR woke up didn’t want underwear 🩲 he cried so told him sit on potty you can have a diaper.Saved 4 diapers yesterday/1 diaper saved so far today at least.

    Hubby did great shopping 🛒 found a lot they had just stocked up luckily. He of course couldn’t get our exact products so some were anything he could find . Giant bag of potato mix to box of brownie mix. We have shifted our shopping 🛒 to what will JR eat mainly. So if worst comes to worst he will eat for sure. The Head Baker wore mask 😷 y gloves 🧤 made it no writing on it handed the birthday cake straight to hubby.

    Only 11:40am I’m tired 😴.Got the toilet cleaned after I washed down door knobs,doors,light switches,y most bases boards (takes a few months to get all the base boards). Now 3yr old messy hand prints lol 😂 I’m going to be glad when he’s not into cheetah hands on my curtains. Got laundry 🧺 done ✅

    Walking 🚶‍♀️ indoors like usual

    Cleaning like usual

    Eating easy items might cook the steak 🥩 tomorrow morning. Just easy stuff today.
    Had a slice of high calorie birthday 🎂 cake with a peanut butter sandwich 🥪. Later not sure.Hubby this ok some of our groceries to his Mom so she doesn’t go out.

    Every time I go out in public now, I feel a need to touch my face! Maddening!
