I bought a very sticky, foam insulation tape. I bought some groceries and some giant economy sizes to save money, finally.

I transplanted some of my strawberry plants, black raspberries, wild raspberries and rhubarb to the side of the house. I planted perennial spring flowers in the back yard. I re-did the storm doors with sticky tape, since the other insulation didn't stick well. I caulked the top of the doors, and checked the top of the windows, but the window tops were still caulked.

A co-worker's friend tuned up my car, winterized it, put the muffler that had fallen off back on, and re-installed the rear view mirror that had also fallen off, all for $135.00. He's going to put some kind of gasket on it next weekend to stop an oil leak.

I went to Ruth's at 2PM and cooked most of the food Ruth will eat next week. My boss is no longer at Ruth's in the afternoon to do the cooking, the morning shift woman doesn't do any of the cooking, and the part-time woman only cooks sometimes. I lost an hour's wages, since I wasn't there at 1PM.

I was tired and took two aspirin. I put two aspirin and a glass of water on the table by the bed/couch, since my arm hasn't let me sleep much lately.
