Hoping for some good sleep tonight. Husband had a long day at work yesterday - 12 hours plus travel time - and was understandably tired at the end of the day. Once in bed he was out like a rock and snoring like a...well, I'm not quite sure what snores as loudly as he did last night! I had my earplugs in and I could still hear him quite loudly. I tried discretely nudging him but it didn't work and, after about forty minutes, I ended up on the sofa. The sleep was not good. He had another long day today. I am hoping the snoring is not so bad tonight. I fear I might be disappointed. Sigh.
I got a couple of household jobs off my list, things that I'd been putting off. I also managed to get up in the craft room for a bit today. I didn't get a lot done, but I did make a start on another mini album and I put together a couple of Halloween toppers that will go on cards. The photo is the Things That Make Me Smile for today (day 265)
I thought I'd also mention a fail. I gave in and bought a couple of books at The Dollar Tree yesterday. I went in for a couple of things, but got distracted by the books. They look like a couple of easy reads
Today was definitely cooler and there was a touch of Autumn in the air. I kept the windows closed all day to keep the heat in the house. It was sunny, but there was a wind too. Tonight the temperature is supposed to drop to 40F/4C - a chilly night to be sure! The window in the bedroom is closed and the blanket has been pulled over the bed in case it is needed.
I will have to be sure to bundle up for the walk in the morning! Tomorrow is middle son's birthday so after my walk I have to go out and pick up a couple of things. I am hoping the roads cooperate (lol). The main road up the top of the street is coming to the end (hopefully) of a long project (it's been only open one way since April) and they are now repaving the whole thing. The sign says expect long delays. Sigh. There are roadworks everywhere. As I tried to get home from the shops the other day the road I usually go down was closed and the detour had a lane closed. I am trying to think where I can shop where the travel will be easier!
I'm off to bed hoping for some sleep!
The road crews are tearing out sewer lines, creating new handicap accessable curbs and repaving the main street I turn out on to leave my house. The main street through town has been under this kind of construction all summer. This is the direct result of all us Michiganders repeatedly saying "FIX THE D....ROADS " for so many years. Well, they are fixiing the d..... roads. I know it is tiresome, but we really needed it.
ReplyDeleteCute Halloween toppers! Hope you have a better night's sleep, tonight, and get your shopping done tomorrow without too much difficulty due to road construction closures! Going by those temperatures, it sounds like Fall has arrived!
ReplyDeleteFall has definitely arrived. No luck on the sleep - sadly.
DeleteThought it was just here where roads keep being closed for repairs!
ReplyDeleteHa ha. No, here too. Can't go one road without roadworks. I think our state's emblem should be a road cone.
DeleteTony's snoring again so I might be in the spare bedroom if it continues.. I bought another book too. I have no willpower
ReplyDeleteSorry. It can be really frustrating though it isn't their fault really. I just end up getting anxious and then that makes me not be able to sleep all the more!
