Afternoon.
We're back from town.
Skywise will be getting ready for work soon.
I'll be doing some physical work downstairs today and painkiller is a definite possibility. I'd rather not be crippled tomorrow or even later tonight. So... considering.

Smiley There is now enough room to put the first pantry closet where I want it and "probably" enough room for the second one. The small, single door cabinet will have to wait. I want to move at least one of the double door units into that area first. Once more space is cleared out, there will be room for the single unit. Right now, I'm going back down stairs to work on my coursework which needs to be done daily. Spirit is currently asleep so I won't disturb her while she's on the downstairs computer.

Smiley Smiley Smiley Skywise is on his way home -- which is a good thing 'cause I'm falling asleep here! I'll stay awake until he gets home but I'll be crashing like the Hindenburg shortly thereafter! So.....

Everyone sleep well, be safe, stay calm and STAY HEALTHY!!!  Mask ON 1

Afternoon.
Skywise has been working on getting "Talk to Text" to work like I need it too.
Ain't happening.Smiley  Smiley Smiley
So.......... I'm going to have to transcribe the course material I've received so far -- nearly 18 hours worth with more arriving on Monday -- the hard way. Smiley
Absolutely everything that can be put aside will be until I'm caught up. Smiley Smiley

Smiley It was an EPIC struggle but "Talk to Text" is working. The instructor's accent, use of "non-English" words and the fact that he talks fast has resulted in some "interesting" phrases in the document but I was fully expecting to do serious editing on it so I'll just do more than I'd thought I would. Editing will be a LOT easier than transcribing! Lesson 1 is the longest, so far and I expect recording the other lessons will go faster as I get comfortable with the software. Right now, I'm going to attempt to stand up since I've been sitting here monitoring the transfer for over an hour. Smiley

I've waited long enough to check my glucose -- which is very good, by the way -- and I'm calling it a night.

Afternoon.
My glucose was very good this morning too.
Slept in this morning, then went to lunch. Now we're back and I'm getting caught up between chores.

Monday's lesson has arrived early. No idea why but I'm not complaining. I'll be able to get an early start tomorrow.

Afternoon.
Busy morning.
Went to the bank today to get something straightened out. Smiley
Will go back tomorrow for more "straightening". Smiley
This bank is NOT covering itself in glory.
The local branch manager is NOT a happy man about this.
I will now get caught up while the painkiller I'm about to take kicks in, then I'll get busy downstairs putting the pantry closet together.

Skywise spent some time on Sunday playing with the new microphone we got to use with "Talk to Text" and discovered what amounts to a basic production "company" for internet podcasts already installed as part of our software package. He also read the "terms and conditions" concerning ownership of anything we might put online so.... we won't be doing any podcasts!
Besides, I wouldn't want my likeness to be responsible for damaging the computers of unsuspecting people.

IT IS DONE!! Smiley

"It" being the first pantry closet. It's a bit wobbly due to the floor not being level in that spot but it's upright. I have some heavy stuff in the bottom to help stabilize it until Skywise and I can get a shim or two under it and bolt it to the concrete wall. It's only 60 inches tall so the ratio isn't too bad and in this household, we don't have to worry about anyone trying to climb the thing! Now... I'm going to rest before I start dinner prep. I'm tired and.... my body is killing me!!!!

Afternoon.
Business at the bank is FINALLY straightened out. There were some things that the people handling the payments on our equity loan neglected to tell the branch manager about. Now things are straightened out with our loan and he knows what to tell the next people who come in for something similar.
We came home and crashed since Skywise got home late and it was a bit after 3 am when we went to bed and he had a dental appointment at 9:20 am. So... nap was needed. He's left for work and I'm up for a while until the body reminds me that it needs to get prone which, given how my left leg feels right now, won't be all that long.
In the meantime, I'm going to see if the world's still out there and what shape it's in....

Back.
Had a good nap. Weird dreams though. I'm hoping that Skywise gets off earlier tonight and I'm sure that he does too!! He's going to need dental appointment with another dentist so we'll be getting on that tomorrow.

Dinner's over.
Just ordered some fabric for a special outfit plus some extra since it's something I have to order online. Time was, I could get it at Walmart but no more and no idea why. Oh well, at least I can get it.

Afternoon.
We went to Bloomington this morning to locate the dentist that Skywise has an appointment with next week. We found the office without too much trouble and picked up the new patient paperwork. He'll be able to fill it out before the appointment. One less thing to do while he's there.

It was supposed to be clear today but clouds have moved in and the wind is gusting at around 40 miles an hour.  Windy Scattered showers are possible today with a greater chance of rain tomorrow.

An order of fabric arrived today, the embroidered trim that will go with it arrived last week -- so now all I need is the pattern which I'm expecting before the end of the week. It will feel good to make something again..

I took a nap which I apparently needed. Pain, of which I've had too much lately, is tiring.
