Lazy Day

I was awakened at 8am by the neighbor calling to see if I could come look at his computer. He had gotten a new flat panel monitor and it wasn't working. I agreed to come over later. I had diagnosed for him on Saturday that he would need a new monitor because the other was intermittent but he thought it was ok on Sunday. I guess it didn't last and so it turned out I was right I guess. Anyway, when I brought in the bins around 11am he came outside and said he got it figured out and the screen was working fine. I was kind of glad.

At noon he was outside have something to drink and asked me where I was going. I was just stepping outside while I waited for "lunch" to finish cooking. It was actually breakfast but noon is too late to call a meal breakfast; he invited me over later to see his purchase. I called about 2:30pm to see if it was OK to come over to see the new monitor but he was just getting his wife up for the day. I decided to do laundry instead. I had just put the laundry on when his grandkids were dropped off so at least he had some company today.

I did some extra clean up work in the area where the lemon tree was because there was dirt still on the walkway. I also got rid of some of the wild grass that's grown up in walkway cracks. Still, I didn't get anything of real note done today.

I felt pretty good; sleep wasn't bad for a change once I got to it. I needed a day of some rest. I just had dinner. I went wild and had two chili dogs. My second batch of laundry is in the dryer now. With evening approaching I feel a bit bloated. I ate too quickly. That happens when I'm eating alone and not at the computer. I'm a bit concerned about my lack of accomplishment today but that's just random guilt.

No sign of whether Brother will be out tomorrow morning for a grocery run. Maybe I'll get an email.

Had a very different, quite affection-driven dream.

1am. No email from Brother. Cat is here to put me to bed.
