to-do list

mowing the lawn is scratched from the list. i already did that yesterday afternoon. the sun was out but it was windy so i thought it won't be so bad. wrong. i almost passed out as i was emptying the lawnmower bag because i was bent over. i started seeing stars, so i gripped the lawnmower handle, and hoped not to fall. when it passed, i stopped and left everything, walked back to the house, sat on the sofa, leaned back, eyes closed, and hoped for the best. drank a glass of water, and went back out as soon as i felt better. i know. i'm so ocd. i set aside the 2 trash bags of cut grass, rolled-up the extension cord (we have an electric lawnmower), swept the walkway, and put everything back in the shed. and all through these, the stars were coming and going...

i called hubby after i'm done and told him we may have to buy dinner. can't(won't) prepare(cook) dinner because of what happened. said fine but will be coming home a little late. will meet up with his eldest son, who is in town to watch the Phillies play the Pirates. by the way, the son called him earlier while driving along the pa turnpike. he was cited for over speeding, and was really pissed-off. the fine, $140+ but still lower than mine. mine came up to $158. uggghhh...

anyway, the short of it, we had mcdonald's for dinner. i planned on going to bed between 9:30 and 10:00, but at 2:27am, i'm still typing away but barely able to keep my eyes open.

so, goodnight. good morning. but what do you know? the to-do list is still not here.
