Happy Moonday!
It’s hot outside.
The GR go out for 5-10 minutes and come in huffing and puffing.
Echo is not bothered by the heat so much.
I woke up at 6 this morning, earlier than I wanted.
Then I fell back asleep in my chair and had weird dreams.
The lawyer called me this morning, full of apologies, it was their mistake, and what we needed to do to fix it. I have to send a check payable to the trust for the amount of the over payment I received. Then he will send another check to my son. I explained my situation and he said he will do his best to expedite everything, remove all charges, send me the money for my bank’s charges, etc.
I didn’t ask him what would happen if I refused to return the money.
I told him there are problems with the family and I don’t trust any of them. He already knew.
I took the check to the PO so I could get a tracking number. I forgot to make a copy of it though. I make copies of everything. It was so hot to me, I thought I was going to get sick. The PO was crowded too.
I see Butters on FB. She used to live in the Keys, then her husband passed away, she retired and moved. Her first dog was Lucky Louie, when he passed, she got Buddy. I think her cat’s name is Squeakers? It looks like she does a lot of gardening.
Sunny moves a lot, but she is in CA.
I’m glad you went to the ER and all seems to be good Nellie. You really don’t want to mess around with a potential blood clot.
Wheelie, I read that as ‘autopsy accounts’ as well.
I’m glad for FCD that he got out of teaching.
Real Fish, I think the talk to text worked well. Good to know, some of us might need it as we get older.

First days of school? It was nice to have all the new school supply stuff. New cigar box, new crayons, pencils, glue, nice and fresh. Each year we would get 6 new dresses, new shoes, new socks, new underwear. Except the years I was in Catholic school. Then I got two new uniforms instead of 6 new dresses.
Five dresses for school and one for church, along with a new hat for church.
My mother loved to shop, and shopping for clothes was her favorite kind of shopping.
By high school, I was doing my own shopping. I never made a big deal of getting new stuff for school.
I ran across a group on FB, alumni of my elementary school. I read a little but I’m not joining. My 5th grade class picture was posted and I’m surprised that I can still name most of my classmates.
I couldn’t tell you most of my teachers’ names if my life depended on it.
!st grade was the only year I had one teacher. 2nd grade I had one teacher, except for art, music, and PE. After that there were different teachers for math, science, art, music, and PE. Junior and senior high were different teachers for each subject. In high school, we had semesters, and I could have one teacher for the first semester of a class and a different teacher for the second semester. I remember some of them. Mostly, the really good ones, and the really bad ones.
Once in high school, my schedule was not a surprise. We had to make our own schedules, within certain parameters to meet graduation requirements, so we already knew what classes and teachers we had.
It was a PITA though, because you would stand in line to sign up for a certain class, then find out the class was full at the period you wanted it. If it was a required class, you would take what you could get and cancel, replace, and rearrange your other classes to fit that one in. That meant going from line to line to line until you finally got it all straightened out.
It was tedious and frustrating, until senior year, because seniors got to pick first.
You could give up and hand it over to your guidance counselor, but you’d probably not like the results.
Today was another wasted day where I got very little done beyond napping.
I tried sitting outside with the puppers, but the mosquitoes wouldn’t let me be. There is some other kind of bug, smaller than a mosquito, or maybe a different variety of mosquito that won’t leave me alone. I have bug spray that you hook up to the hose and spray your yard, but you have to keep pets away for a certain amount of time. Maybe one day I can take all of them to daycare. Then again, we are moving soon so what is the point?
