Happy Friday

I received a strange voicemail yesterday afternoon. The call was from an area code from original home area code, which my phone # still is same number I've had for years, so I figured it was spam and didn't answer it. The voicemail was from some realtor saying he was leaving this message for the lady that bought our house. He had some buyers looking for property in the area and were interested in her place if she was interested in selling it. Weird, let alone how he got my phone number for her? It's been 4 years since we sold that place. I don't know if I should call the guy back and tell him he's got the wrong # or just ignore it, haha. I guess if he tries calling again I will.

TGIF. and it's payday, too. This is always a good payday because I also get paid from my side job (once a month). 

I'm planning a trip into the city tomorrow morning to pick up groceries and a small order at Lowes of a few things dh needs. I need to finalize my grocery order and figure out what time I want to pick it up. My mom has flopped back and forth if she wants me to pick her up or not. First she will say sure, then she will say "oh, I really don't need anything", LOL. I will probably check with her on my way in the morning and see if she at least just wants to ride in the car with me while I make my 2 stops and then I can drop her back off. 

Well, looks like the earliest I can pickup a grocery order tomorrow is 11am, so guess that's when it is LOL. I did just talk to my mom again this morning and sounds like she does want to go for the ride with me to the stores to pick up stuff (not go in). Though she will probably need a few things so we probably will at least go into Target or Walgreens. She had called me fairly early this morning (never a good sign) and said she wasn't feeling very well. Her chest felt tight. She hasn't had that happen for months now, which is good. She does occasionally have heartburn/acid reflux (takes med for it) so I had a feeling it was probably that. I asked if she had taken her temperature and she hadn't though of doing that. I figured that would be a good sign one way or the other. She took it and called me back and it was normal, which I figured would also make her not worry as much. I called her back about an hour later and she was better. She ate breakfast and was just taking it easy.

The county I live in (for now at least) has zero Covid cases. All recovered and none had to require hospitalization, which is so good to hear. Masks were mandatory (per state order) if more than 4 cases in a county. It will be interesting to see now if people go back to not wearing masks in the stores in town, or keep wearing them.

The wind has kicked up and I can hear my beautiful Corinthian Bells wind chimes playing their beautiful music. It is so relaxing to listen to. Sometimes I will wake up in the middle of the night and hear them. 

Apparently I've been sitting too long this morning - my butt hurts! Time for lunch

  1. About two minutes before I read your butt hurts, I said the same thing and lay down on the sofa...lol. Yes, I had been sitting too long. I think the ride would do your mother good and she should come along even if she changes her mind. It is good to get out of our space.

    That was a strange call!

    I found out there is absolutely no danger of dementia with the med I take for reflux, contrary to the first reports. I am beyond happy about that.

    1. what med is it? my mom takes one. I used to take one, for about a year, but it cleared up (pretty sure it was stress)
