Halfway there
Mar. 13th, 2023 09:46I've got a balance of 46 pounds sterling on my Prolific of the 91 I need to subscribe to the Tennis channel. Whohoo!! I've even had a couple of interesting studies. And the wait for payment is negligible now so much quicker gratification.
I've also been to the Goodwill to drop off a box of stuff that I needed to get out of my room and to Amazon drop off to return a crappy pet chip reader that I bought last week. The reader had no documentation and no support and did not, far as I could tell, work as advertised. My patience was short and I requested a return about half an hour after delivery. I've got another one coming. Hopefully it will work better.
Other than that I'm just dusting my room which is a definite thing. I seem to acquire a lot of dust. Fortunately swiffer helps. And maybe vacuuming and changing sheets.
Dana is returning today and we start getting ready for me to leave for Seattle and her brother and partner to arrive from the west coast.
We've also got a soccer game tomorrow night. Austin FC got their collective asses kicked last week in the Dominican Republic. They were embarrassed by a bunch of semi-pros in what is called the ConCaCaff tournament, a North/South American tournament. Tomorrow night is the return match. I'm thinking that Austin FC will really be ready for revenge and to prove they are worthy. Huge chip on their shoulder. The match will be at Q2 stadium which is supposed to be amazing. We'll get there early. The temps will be in the 60's but we are driving so we'll have extra stuff with us. And, of course, we have our scarfs and I'm guessing they have other 'stuff' in the Verde Store.
Just went online and ordered food through the fourth week in April So nice to just have it ordered and I don't have to figure out what to eat for four of the seven days of the week. All of the services have gone up but are still affordable. Hello Fresh and Home Chef both came in at about $100 for four meals for two people. So roughly $13.50 per meal. Dinnerly came in at $9.75 per serving. Quality of the more expensive ones is much higher but once a month saving $20 per box is OK.
I see Dana is on the road now so I better get to sheet changing and vacuuming.
