Overslept but made it on time for work. I'm tired. Mimi is watching kitty TV, the birds and squirrels in the tree in the back yard.

Forgot to mention that my baby spider plants are doing really well. One is getting kind of big!

The Lawn Love people applied fertilizer and weed killer to my lawn, so I can't seed it right now. Sigh. That rec has been open for weeks, and they do it now. The Internet says that I can seed in two weeks. But that would put me at the first frost date for the area. Maybe I should overseed in the Spring? I know that fall is better.

Silence from the real estate guy. Sigh. I'll give him until next Monday, and then I'll track him down. He did say that the house would be ready to list at the end of last month, but he always takes longer than he says.

My singing lesson went well. I asked to work on the hardest piece that we're doing for choir. (It's "Gloria" by Randol Alan Bass.) There are several places when the time signature changes every two measures. She said "This is hard!" And I was kind of like, "You think?" She had me write the counts on the music, which helped somewhat. She also worked with me on the high notes. I generally don't do high notes. She also pointed me to a free music theory Web site that has interval training. That should be very helpful.

Afterward, I ran out to get soy milk, given that I was reasonably presentable.

I have to practice piano and study Italian, but i have a crashing headache, so I'll get up early and do so. I lay down "for a few minutes" to get rid of my headache and slept through until morning.

I don’t know how it got to be Friday already. I need to tidy up for the cleaner tonight. She’s coming tomorrow. Started tidying up the kitchen.

Mimi is complaining loudly that she's not on my lap. I'm not stopping her from jumping up. Silly cat :) And I forgot to mention that Zara gave me a little kiss last night when I lay down to get rid of my headache. Aww. From her it means something. She is a one-person (me) cat. Mimi ingratiates herself with whatever human is around (but she likes me best).

Hmm, the Walker Book Club is tomorrow, but I have my broken toe. Plus, I need to get ready for the cleaner.

I met with the advisor and she’s going to submit my withdrawal form. She suggested that I call financial aid about my tuition waiver.

I got my new Full Focus planner. It starts on Monday, but I can write some goals down this weekend. My plan is to organize and clean the upstairs while the cleaner is cleaning the downstairs.

I rescheduled my RSV vaccine for the weekend of the 26th. I should be here because our annual meeting and in-person staff meeting at work is that week. I need to go up to Michigan sometime this month.

I had said that the arthritis in my toe wasn't bothering me, but that isn't quite true. I had been wondering if I was getting gout because it twinged occasionally, but it's not bad. But I'm wondering if I'm getting a touch of arthritis in my hands. Sigh.

I need to start walking after my toe heals. I'm missing the nice fall weather! And apparently people walk in the mall down the street from me in the winter.

I watched Anthony Bourdain’s last interview from a Facebook link. How could someone who sounded so together wind up killing himself? The Bourdain worshipers on the Facebook group trouble me, however. I keep wondering what he would think about them. I have a feeling that he wouldn’t be impressed.

The kitchen is ready for the cleaner except that I need to do dishes (done). Right now, I’m watering my “tree” plants because I do so in the tub (done and draining overnight) and I want the cleaner to clean the tub.

Brought stuff upstairs for the organizing and cleaning tomorrow. I'm feeling tired, so I'm going to go to bed soon.
