Today was a boring day. I woke up before hubby, way before the alarm he had set at 10am. I woke up at 830am. I laid there trying to sleep but my mind kept going over to money stress so finally I got up, intending to go let the dogs out and in,get some yogurt and cola, and come back up to bed to read.
I did all that but when I got back in bed, hubby groped around, thought for me, but then found the remote and handed it to me with the instructions that it won't bother him if I turn on the tv, he was going back to sleep. He's been staying up to 3am or later over the past 4 days off so had a hard time getting to sleep around 1am, his normal time to sleep. He rolled over and slept until 10am.
I watched the alternative channels we found, the ION channel and COZI. Then at 10am, I turned over to ME tv and watched Quincy. Hubby left at 11am for work and when the Rockford Files were over, I got dressed and went downstairs to feed everybody.
Then I spent the rest of the day doing laundry. Boring! Found more bedbugs in the dryer lint. Kept bagging everything. But haven't been bitten in over a week! Marks are starting to fade but still can feel the scabs and see the red marks that I got last. Hubby came home around 4pm, got frustrated that his mj license hasn't shown up yet and the office closes at 4pm, so he will have to call tomorrow. It's been 40 days since they received the paperwork and we should have gotten it by now. So he got some chili and took back off for work. Told me that he would be working until about 1030pm, he has 3 big projects to get done by Friday evening so will be late every night. Good for the paycheck, bad for me. I miss him.
I didn't change the bed, it will be the third night we will be sleeping on it. I checked it really carefully and didn't see any little bedbugs on it, so will take the chance. I so don't want to do anymore laundry tonight. I'll strip the bed and do it all in the morning. I do have to run out and get white glue so I can make Applesauce and Cinnamon Ornaments. I've viewed several ornament recipes on the internet and so far the best one I'm coming up with is 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 and a half cups of cinnamon, 1 tablespoon of cloves, 1 tablespoon of nutmeg and 2 tablespoons of glue. Mix it until it forms a ball. If too dry, add a little more applesauce. If too wet, add a littlemore cinnamon. Once it forms a ball, put some cinnamon down on the table and roll out the dough until it's 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutters to cut it, use a spatula to pick them up and put them on cookie sheets. Bake at 200 degrees for a couple of hours until dry and hard. Let cool overnight. Then decorate with paint and ribbons if you want. I might decorate with glitter glue on one side. I'm planning on using these as my gift for the Red Hat's Christmas party lunch on the 19th. I might try to see if I can press beads into them while they are wet and see if they will stick. That would be nice.
My friend. Holly, went on Pintrest and said there is a lot of home remedies for bedbugs on there, so I'm going to check it out. Cassie showed me how to search it and look things up when she came out.
