What have we here

 We have the second week of winter. It was colder than the first week.  Temperatures were around -35 in the am.

What did this past week bring? A short work week. Three days for me. Part of the staff is down with COVID. We expect more this week. With the Omricron variety, it seems like it will be not if you get it, but when you get it. I have enough groceries to last a long while. I do not want to go into any stores unless it is an emergency. I did get my booster on Monday, the 3rd. Just a sore arm for a few days. I feel a bit safer now.

I have continued thinking about this year. We definitely need to find garden space. Whether we do it all in containers or are able to rent a garden, will be determined soon. 

Daughter is having her bathroom remodelled. She took out a closet and now has a big deep tub and shower. They are at the stage where they can start mudding on Monday. However today, she needs to get the wiring done to change one two outlet plug to one that is one outlet and one switch. That will be done today. She needs to pickup her sconces, overhead light, toilet and a new door. While the mudding is going on it will give them time to change the door. When you put new walls in, the drywall needs to be mudded then it needs to dry for two to three days, then the second mud is done, repeat the drying, then they can sand. Then hang the sconces, attach the overhead lighting,  once everything is cleaned up, new flooring, new toilet then paint. Actually not sure if they will paint before they bring in the new vanity and lay the floor. Oh so long ago we did anything like it. Very exciting.

This morning I have gone through my freezer (fridge) and did stock taking. I am in good shape. In a bit, I will go through the fridge and see where I am at with that. It is not as full as it was at the beginning of the week. Then I will go through the pantry. I am out of a few spices, but those can wait. Eating plain never hurt anyone. I do need to make bread, tortillas, pitas and I need to use up some fruit in breads or muffins. 

That’s it for now.

Blessings
