Didn't Work

Haven't been to busy but yet getting things done.

Sunday, Tracy, came over for us to go do our breakfast and was handing me a purple paper she found on my porch. It was a weed notice. I didn't think they were that bad yet. So after breakfast we went to Lowe's and bought the weed spray.

Monday, I was getting ready to go out and spray when I received a text from Lucy about going to lunch. Yep lunch beats weeds any day. So I drove over to our favorite place and caught up on her trip to the Mountains. Then off to the Dollar Tree for a few items.

Today I made sure I got out there really early and sprayed the weeds. I'm glad I did because they looked pretty brown already late afternoon. Right now it is pouring down rain but will not stop the spray from doing its job. This storm was not announced on my weather app. and still isn't showing up.
I got back into shredding and cleaning out files most of the rest of the day. I can't believe how old some of the things were. The shredder over heated after a while. I kept going and made it to the T's. I made a pile on the floor for shredding and filled a plastic bag with things not needing to be shredded and threw out some folders that were really old and a mess. I will take the better ones to the donation center. 

I used the Boost Oxygen and it didn't work for me. I was kind of upset about it as I sure wanted to be able to make a trip up the Mountain before it got to cold. So once this heat is over with and I'm not using the a/c so much I will have them set up another app. for the tests to see what is going on.

Good Night All

  1. WE need a new shredder, the one one at Mom's just won't shred anymore it crimps the paper...lol
    Good idea to find out whats going on with your respiratory. I believe its one point lower on the dew point than it was soooo maybe fall is going to be here soon, the sooner the better!

  2. I was shredding paper a while back and some how a penny was folded in a receipt and ... well the blade sure arent like those knives. and of course the damage is right in the middle which causes the paper to get stuck in the crumpled teeth now I have to rip everything into strips to by pass that area. I don't see summer ending anytime soon around here the dew point is still really high.

  3. I have shredded so many files but I think they somehow sneak back. I don't know where it all comes from.

  4. Paper clutter is my nightmare, been slugging through it slowly this summer. Too hot to do much. Did make the man a meatloaf in the crock pot and he is planning on meatloaf sandwiches. Hooray for me!!!

  5. Again, sorry the canned oxygen didn't work for you, Jo. I also found a tablet that is supposed to help, on Amazon. We shall see if my arsenal works and I'll get back to you. I had to have some tests recently and my oxygen level was 100% so I'm hoping that means something. If it doesn't I don't know how I'll keep up with Susan! LOL I'm getting anxious to get on the road. Pats to Fred!

  6. Hi Gypsy,
    I think it breeds in the filing draw. And my kids and sister bring all kinds of things here too. I called them and was told the stuff wasn't any good. Gee thanks and don't bring anymore of your garbage here.

    Hi JMD,

    I tell you this paper business is a pain and the one thing I was looking for I still haven't found. I do have the t's to go through but that is bigger than the rest of the files. The meat loaf in the crock pot is so good. I have made it like that before.

    Hi Nancy,

    I hope it works for you. I know you are ready for this trip and many more to come.

  7. Hi Jo! I hadn't heard of the Boost Oxygen but on the surface it sounded good... but I'm not so sure now. Every so often, I have to use a CPAP to get some air back in the lungs... darned pollen.
