That's how my day has been going so far, like my brain is fractured - shattered into so many pieces I'm not sure if they can snap back to their original place!
I decide to do a task, walk into a room and see something that needs doing so I switch gears. That leads me to another part of the house, and switch gears again to begin a different task. It has gone that way the entire morning, with two jobs done and a number left to finish! I may as well realize it's going to be that way today, all day.
One of my jobs had me walking to where I could see the front porch, and of course the hummingbird feeders caught my eye. They needed cleaning and refilling, and I had boiled the water and added sugar earlier so it was cool enough by now. One of the feeders was really bad and I had to take it apart completely to get the moldy stuff cleaned out. I don't like that feeder to begin with so when I dropped the newly-filled feeder which shattered, I was glad it wasn't the other one that is easy to clean.
I scrambled some eggs for lunch and toasted a "morning round"; when I tried to pick up the toasted, buttered and jellied round, it fell jelly side down on my plate. That just goes to show how my day is going! I bought the rounds, not because they sounded so healthy - organic, heart healthy, muesli, etc. I don't have a clue what muesli is except that I think it's cereal, and I wouldn't normally eat it on a bet (simply because of the name). But these rounds have cranberries, enough of them that you can see many of them in each breakfast "round". I toast and butter them, then add homemade cranberry sauce/jelly which I have grown to love.
Regarding a couple of questions and comments on my planned quilted pot holders, yes I intend to use a batting especially for such things (not polyester). I actually want them to set hot plates and pans on.
Jeanne called me a few minutes ago to let me know they aren't going to the gym tonight. I think I will go walking, and hope that clears my brain out! The rest of me feels great!
POSTSCRIPT:
I just came out of the gym after walking the treadmill and passed two guys, probably mid-40's. One is saying, "...and my knee hurts and my back hurts and my elbow is jacked up..." I wonder what he will feel like after he comes out of the gym. My legs ache a little but I feel like I'm flying on a cloud right now!

Eating right and exercising will keep you young and healthy for a lot longer. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteYup, I know those days only when I get distracted from task a to task b then task a never gets done. Then I get distracted from b to c and b never gets done and goes that way all day long until at the end I have about 8 things all half done. Glad your exercising gives you such a boost.
ReplyDeleteSee you day ended quite well.
ReplyDeleteI buy the sandwich rounds but never saw breakfast rounds. they sound really good will have to look for them, are they in the bread isle/
I have those days also. Usually when I am trying to clean the house.
ReplyDeleteDon't feel like the Lone Ranger...we all have those days. You are a very task oriented individual that does not like to waste your time or day. Me...I am a procrastinator so it does not bother me so much.
ReplyDeleteGlad the exercising makes you feel so good.
That's funny about the young guy - it's all a matter of perspective, isn't it? I feel fortunate, so far, that I'm still healthy and my mind works so well at my age.
ReplyDeleteI love days like that - start out doing one thing. Suddenly I'm doing something else, then something else, but the time the day is done I've gotten so much done and feel great. You had a very productive day, it sounds like! :)
If you want to use your potholders more as trivets, you could put a piece of Reflectix between the two laters for extra protection against the heat.
