February 21st 2021

I had planned to go to dollar general and alice's attic/dave's community thrift store. 
he had a class 10:30-11:00 and it would be a perfect time to go.. early, less crowds..
however, when he woke at 7:30, i was not ready to get up. i slept longer and had strange dreams..

it started out as a groundhog-day dream of reliving yesterday.. no different than it had happened.. and when i crawled into bed was when i rolled over and bonked into ronnie's forehead.. oops. he didn't even remember it this morning. 
after he got up, and i fell back to sleep, that dream was me being at work.. it was a friday (don't know when) and our scheduled surgery was cancelled because dc was having surgery on-site. something with her back.. or her shoulders.. 
she had tossed out a heinz set.. mustards, hot sauce, ketchups, bbq sauces.. i had tried to rescue them from the trash can and put them back into the box. i was originally at my apartment doing this, but then eventually at a race track. I had tried to climb the wall after running across the "live" track. I wasn't able to climb and was trying my hardest not to fall. someone had come to save me from falling, but then turned me in to employees there as 'suicide risk' -- as if i was trying to fall onto the track to be killed. I was hidden in a room under the stands, sitting on and tied to a creeper cart.. 
i had eventually escaped and was crawling on the ground trying to avoid those authorities keeping me locked away.. i had seen ronnie drive up, and i ran around to the long lines of people.. i caught up with him there in line for the king's game (wasn't i at a race track??) and was sneaking into the game with him. i woke up just as we were getting inside the arena. 

fed mr grey some food this am -- he wasn't there.. 
fed ms critterbugg as well and she was more than willing to come outside and steal mr grey's food as well.. i didn't let her

i soaked some oatmeal and green peas for the chickens.. no egg today.. not by 10am, not by 1pm, not by 3:30pm.. but all the chickens were very interested in their peas and oats. they like it better if i simmer it after soaking.. they don't like it raw. they ate it but it took them several days. if it's simmered they eat it within a day.

cleaned kitchen again. i don't keep up with it as i should, but better than most times that it would sit for days. cleaned the faucet and sink as well.. that i think will be my sunday task (if i can truly keep up on it)
also working on one bathroom.. hadn't done that in awhile and i got it looking pretty good. 
i really need to find some way to clean the guest bathroom -- the upstairs bathroom that we use most often. i really need to come up with the "yellow mellow/brown down" cleaner. it is the newest toilet, just a little over a year.. and it is yellow.. like yellow of yellow. i tried to bleach it, and that just turned the yellow into a bluegrey.. now it is yellow again plus the spots of bluegrey.. ugh.. 
I put white vinegar today to see if it would work. I read to leave it for 2-3 hours.. 
that is tricky because we pee within 2-3 hours, so it didn't exactly get to sit. 
but my cleaning spray is vinegar/water/eucalyptus essential oil.. so perhaps this is a 'thing'
the vinegar helped.. but it wasn't perfect. maybe the more i do it, it will get better.. maybe..
