Worthless

 20 years 3 months 

“Clueless” and I’m certainly not impressed!

No sex house. The United States has gone insane.

Why would that statement be taken as an invitation.

I do not want a machine attached to me.

Simulating sex is wrong!

Urban Oasis 2024

Ut oh

I just saw the first pictures of the Urban House in Kansas City Missouri

Front door? Gone (I need a solid door. Maybe to match the garage)

The windows? And white? The first thing I’d do is rip out the siding in the middle and put up brick veneer or something to make it look like a two story townhouse.

I think I like brick veneer for the African skinny bathroom too.

I did see the blue stripe in the backyard by the window so maybe under the tiny window in the front too.

The bottom stair? Trip. You could put pillar types at the bottom to block it but why isn’t it a landing/turn the stairs type thing for more walk through? It’s too close.

I am not going to panic. It isn’t furnished yet.

Can you get a piano in the music room?

I think I would make the bunk room something different. No one would make you put mattresses in there. It reminds me of a tiny home.

The wellness room. I like the color but I see a freezer down there with my Diet Coke stash for the winter. Maybe my barre… wellness enough

AMC

I checked and they’re playing the Olympic Coverage and the Fabulous Four.

I’m not sure how I feel about the Fabulous Four. Just don’t assume I’m a character!

There was something interesting about Trap but I don’t know if I could watch it. 

Coming Soon: Skincare and the mid90s looks like a good movie for the teens.

End of July

They’re not letting me upload my photos.

That does not mean I will quit posting on my blog!

The end of the month started early because they’re living off my government phone and threatened the next two phones. We’re at 10 phones stolen, 2 iPads and 2 desktops. I’m not paying for their crime by upgrading my usage with my carrier.

————-

So I had to walk to Family Dollar/Dollar Tree as of the 11th of July. Although a painful walk I decided to enjoy birthday month by focusing on organizing my kitchen.

I continued with drawers and am at shelves. I organized 3 drawers (junk drawer, baking and silverware) so far but hope I am left alone soon.

They are already sending notices that I am out of GB 

One day desperate!? The hood is angry.

“Counter-Productive”

July Norwex Purchase

 

Pictured: Lysere Body Wash, Bottle Brush with EnviroSleeve, Bright and White Laundry + Home Booster and Crystal Deodorant

I’ve been using the Body Wash as a hand soap for now. The Bright and White replaced my bleach in the laundry room. The Crystal deodorant is unscented and helps with wetness. 

Had to start to organize my purchases this month!

I bought the organizer and drying mats at Dollar Tree and am considering this my “I don’t need these on the counter really but they’re at the ready when needed” storage solution. 

Summer


I was tired of Christmas and have to move my New Years Resolutions back to January.

In Summer I make a to do list. I’ve only gotten two things done in the first 6 months.

Merge Mansion wise I just d/l the update for August I’m still making Exotic Plants! 

Pending Summary
- Detached from and free to be me (like before 2005)
- Grow my brain back
- Move to safety (no clue where or when)
Although it’s being discouraged. The dinner boat is reported as gone.
- Norwex year!

I’ve been working on Maintenance’s 
Still left outside
1. ✅ Power/Pressure Wash porch and walkways
- Probably remove one walkway (this would be the next step instead of repair)
✅ Rehang swing with S hooks
✅ Block fasteners instead of repair swing
✅ Orange Glo Swing (mineral oil was the 2nd ingredient)
- Possibly re-stain swing
- Ants! (have ready)
- Hang the Address Plaque my mom purchased in 2007
2. Take down front awning  
If I hire someone I’ll add the side and back awnings down too (Goal September. I have 2 choices I think)
- Hang paper blinds inside (have ready)
I might just clean them now. The rehab on my house broke the plastic pulls (tassels) and now that I’m doing the back door I broke one of those. (11 replacements ready) The Dish Brush/EnviroCloth is doing a good job on it though. Just time consuming.
3. Leaves (have to dig out my car)
- Carport (left side done)
- Patio
4. Remove weeds on hard surfaces (have ready)
I had some Ortho from when I first moved in to finish and got halfway through. That spray is good until Nov but not much has died so far.
- Raid grass front and back (have ready)
5. Water my 3 flowers 🌺  🌸  💐 
- Fertilize July✅ August
I’ll give up when I have the bed of soil redone. This might include removing that concrete. I’m watching what grows out of curiosity. Unfortunately a lot of rocks
6. HVAC service (might be fall)
7. Fall Scott Weed and Seed Grass (have ready)
*** I asked a grounds crew about what to use in July. 

Tons to do inside still! 
I’m still at “recycling”
and Windows 
added Organize Kitchen
Smoke Alarm Batteries 

Main Purchases (this started as “Black Friday”)
1. New toilet/Kitchen faucet (leading to plumber! Two choices - City Waitlist I’d have to move my things or I do this part myself) 311 cleared
2. Kitchen Lights (now I need an electrician… possibly a ballast but they’re not working) 
*** Good news: I’m getting an estimate from someone who might do both plus the HVAC
3. Dyson Vacuum 

Goals
1. Budget Bills monthly (made it to August!)
2. Check with Weatherization 
3. Check with Lowes to Paint 
Porter was suggested 
4. Reclaim Medicare Benefits 
- but there’s no reason to until I have a Car again
Food/OTC/Glasses/Dentist is not walkable
- I still need Physical Therapy: Run over, kicked in the head, lots of fall downs and hand/wrist. 

Insurance
- Fix Car
- Door
