Not turning the air conditioning on before July 1st was my goal which DID NOT HAPPEN. The temps soared into the high 80s and low 90s before I had a chance to make HOME-MADE Lemonade. Sonic helped me out with their ALL NATURAL LEMONADE that goes down smooth during their HAPPY-HOUR when I'm out and about.
SURPRISINGLY good. Cold and somewhat tart. At HAPPY-HOUR the beverages are half price and that is a bonus in helping stretch the American dollar.
We basically had no SPRING before SUMMER temps too hot to enjoy the out of doors were present. Sweat. I do my best to stay out of the heat as I cannot tolerate it. Without a thyroid makes it more challenging for me.
I don't cool off like someone with a healthy thyroid. This is an adjustment that I have to do to stay human. Outdoor chores are best done in the early morning hours or late evening. Praising God for electric fans and air conditioning.
The week-end is over and I am onto a fresh week waiting for results about Lab work. Shall see what the TSH numbers say. Making a list as to the future labs I want done. Lots of researching about thyroid heath was done this past week-end. Now I find out that iron is needed to stay healthy and have thyroid health at it's best with feeling optimal.
There's the magic word in thyroidland: OPTIMAL. Optimal range, optimal health. NOT NORMAL, but OPTIMAL. Dr. Westin Childs.
Morning Chores. This morning I washed pots n pans, utensils and a few plates that slept in my sink. HOT WATER and sudsy dish detergent on a sponge are my weapon of choice. DISHES are air drying.
Shuffled some of my Doll collection. They have been moved and I had to decide where to go with some still in boxes. The only place I can think of right at the moment is the upstairs spare closet and my clothing closet. Mind twister. THINK. Last week I did rearrange my clothing closet to shuffle an old heavy sewing machine in wood cabinet into my closet. My portable sewing machine and supplies will sit on top of the closed wood cabinet until I decide otherwise. Small boxed dolls will go onto some shelves for storage.
Antique washstand was slid into place in front of a bedroom window. Some dollies sit on top of this old piece of furniture for displaying. Like it for now. Like my Victorian Bedroom as it's morphing into a cozy Guest room. VICTORIAN.
Brushed my dry hair and decided to blog a quick post. Sipping bottled water. Figuring my day out what needs done. It's Monday and I need to wash 2 loads of blue jeans, 2 loads of towels, and t-shirts for the week.
Paper work today will be fire recovery typing, Birthday cards, looking over some bills and writing out checks. Need to stop by store for Father's Day Cards for my HUBBY and boys before all picked over. Get these in the mail tomorrow.
Not sure what to fix for Supper. Trying to eat more Salads and greens. Yummm. Hear the mailman making a postal drop straight up 9 AM.
Right on time.
Life is good in small town america,
