Moanday Madness 2/??/17 figure it out!

[t-bob]

OK I did a date. I'm going to have to practice my piano more.

Today is Monday? Is that right? I just wish I could sleep!

So this was Sunday! It was a long day. I woke at 6 AM.
I did a lot of writing. I helped and straightening my room.
I played some Beethoven, Mondschein. I spent a total of two hours piling up my old bills. All the stuff I did it in the morning, the afternoon, the night. I went early to see my good cafe, Peet's.

I had a date with a 'old' woman. This woman was very sweet but she was very nervous. Because her husband won't or can't listen or can't go to a doctor. He has dementia. Ugh!

10 tips for a caregiver in a dementia person
1. Positive mood
2. Attention
3. Clear messages
4. Simple questions
5. Listen ears eyes &
heart
6 Break down steps
7. Distract & redirect
8. Respond with affection
9. Remember the good old days
10. Maintain humor


I had a lot texted with my son his wife and my ex-wife, and my date too. All of those texts are all scrambled. I wish I could put it on paper and do some cut and copy and paste.
(I need a rigorous outline.)

This afternoon I decided I had to go my other cafe. and I listened and watched people.

OK now we're done here.

But I do want to say this last thing I'm not thinking about myself!!!
just of those writing is about the "I" because my words were very about tiny things. I spent about other people.... not me.

OK now we're done.

The rest of you stay productive today.

Good morning. We're back to cool and windy so outdoor work is on hold. After the tree Saturday and cleaning the pool up yesterday my left arm just wasn't doing guitar last night. It feels better this morning so I'll give it another try today.

I can't stay productive if I haven't been productive recently so I won't bother to try.

Happy Monday.

Another day. Another group of people pissed off about something just because they can be. Ah, America. So, so absolutely glad I don't have to put my ass on the line for some of these idiots anymore.

Time to go iron a shirt!

Morning

48F/9C Sunny ,rather warm for this time of year.

Shop time, got major repair estimates to do and customers to call with those estimates and a Harmony to finish up.

No kids for dinner last night so DaWife and I went to the Little Oven, I ate too much and still brought half of it home, lunch, baked fusilli.

Bill and I checked out the new cafe/bar at El Burrito Market. Food good but not great, service confused.

Doug and I were off our meds last night and the mind reading didn't work too well.

Some how this thing that attacked me last week is lingering on as a sore lower back, wondering if coughing/sneezing threw it out. oh well, the donkeys and dog don't care and only the dog cares that I'm moving slower.

stay well y'all

Yes coughing will throw your back askew. Just happened to mine.

Off to lunch at a local brew pub with a friend in a bit - after I shovel snow. Have good ones.

Did some plinking with my sons yesterday morning. Good fun. Surprised that one had a 9mm, which he could the targets with, but I could not. The .22 rifles, though brand new, were already well sighted in. We were just off hand shooting in a national forest. We will need to dial them in at a real range, but for off hand, they worked well at 30 yards at cans.

Sunny and pleasant. Feeling spring coming. Today will have three more minutes of sunlight than yesterday.
