The world keeps turning

This is granddaughter Lexi.  I love this pouty look because that is exactly how I feel right now. I am grumpy and out of sorts and my face shows it.  
  
My days are long yet I accomplish very little.  My "spirit " animal appears to be the sloth.  There are days that I am more motivated than others.  Then there are days that my fit bit startles me by saying.."Hey, are you still alive?  If so get up and move!"

Yesterday was remarkable cool weather so we worked in the garden.  We want to plant something on the slope area by the back porch.  Phloxes would make a stunning ground cover but we had to get rid of the weeds first.  I hand pulled weeds and Charlie started chopping the rest of them.  The next step is to buy the plants and weed barrier and actually plant them.  

I got very domestic yesterday and tried a new recipe. We tend to eat the same thing all the time.   Charlie loves coleslaw and I found a recipe to make a low-calorie version.  I made a huge mess shredding cabbage and needed to switch bowls to mix it all together.  We will be eating coleslaw for several weeks.  I don't like coleslaw but after all that effort I will definitely be eating it. I will not be making it again!

I love steamed squash and onions.  I put them on to steam while attempted the coleslaw recipe.  I got so stressed and carried away with the coleslaw I forgot about the squash and onions.  So I had squash and onion mush.  I guess my days of multitasking are gone!

I did get to talk to Suzy yesterday and say hello to the boys.  All in all it was a good day, but very typical for life in isolation.
