#Journal of a slightly exhausted Dutch Pixy 🧚🏼♀️ (Monday, July 8th 2024).
TL;DR usual morning with gym and SniffBook walkies. Then Herpen, some painting, back to Cuijk for the shower cabin. Got everything done that I wanted to do, even some relaxing... 😊 It was a decent day for sure!
After it had taken ages to fall asleep, when my alarm woke me, I didn't wanna get up just yet... My sleep score was 89, so not too bad, but I still felt rather tired. I got to the scales and they surprised me! Wow! Nice... 😊 Then I got dressed, took my meds, prepared Arwen's meat, and we headed out for short walkies. Arwen did her things and then she got her food, as I put out the snacks and grabbed my bag. Onwards to the gym!
A friend was at the gym, so we had a nice chat. But that meant less time to sit and update my Mastodon 😉. I got to the treadmill, tried to see all the notifications and reply to them. While on the bike, I wrote my journal Toot. Unfortunately, the massage chair was dead again. 😭 That's so unfair! So I switched shoes and headed back to the apartment.
Quick wash up and brekky. Then, SniffBook walkies. It was 12°C, and dry, so not too bad to go. Arwen had loads of sniffs and I wrote for my blog and for Masto. Edited some pictures as well... We had a good walk, although at some point I did start urging Arwen to take a little less sniffs. It was taking longer than usual... And I know it's the SniffBook round, but it's the walkies... Not standing still and falling asleep 😂!
When we got back, I got to the PC and I finished my "week one" post for the blog. I copied the journal text to the blog as well, so I'll only have some small editing to do in Tuesday morning for the journal blog post to be ready. I'm glad I kept up with it while I could.
Then I packed some bits in Skoosh again and Arwen and I headed back to Herpen. A shorter day today, as dad was coming to Cuijk in the afternoon. Arwen and I had a nice walk before I switched clothes and got to painting. I finished the walls in the living room now, yay! Just one in the bedroom and then the 1½ in the kitchen. Then the downstairs are is done... 😊 Yay!
When I was done with painting, I tried to connect the fiber set for the internet. I followed instructions, hoping I did OK. I had to hang up the modem, so I hoped I would do that OK as well. I plugged all I could plug, I put the power plugs in and... I got a text from my provider saying I had been connected... So, I guess I did right! 😁 I checked the Wi-Fi and it was working well. I may need a Wi-Fi repeater to reach the house better. With the floor heating, I guess the signal gets through little less. But there's three cables connected to outkays in the house (two in the living room), so hopefully they will work and I can plug my wired things in properly then. 😊
Arwen and I went back to the apartment. A quick stop at the store for some food. Then a quick stop to put some gasoline in Skoosh, I could not afford to fill her up all the way, but we should get over 200km extra again now.
I fixed some food for me. Then I let Arwen pee and I made her food. I started the washing machine, as it had not run in the weekend... And I did need some clean gym clothes again... 😊
Dad came a little early and we got to work! It was a bit challenging, but we got it done! 💪🏼 The cabin needs some cleaning before we can install it in Herpen again. But it's loose and ready to be moved this weekend. Yay! We also disconnected three lamps from the ceiling that will move with me as well.
After that, dad went home and I had some time to relax. Of course after a short while, my brain was like "that kit on the bathroom floor needs to be removed as best as you can". So of course I started working on that some. When my hands were too tired, I sat for a wee bit before I got ready for bed. I was hoping for a good night, lord knows I could need one...
I prepared everything for the next day. Teeth, meds and bag. Walked Arwen and then we were ready for sleepies. It took me about 20 minutes to fall asleep. I woke once for the loo. Then I was able to fall asleep again till my alarm woke me. Yay!
And now, the Tuesday has begun. Today, they'll bring the floors to the house. I got a decent time frame so that's a plus (for me). 😊 Let's see what I can get done today.
