I know that showering here is a bit risky during the daytime due to the random water shutoffs, but there’s nothing like a good shower after a run. :-) Feels so good. My hips have been getting better as they get used to the increase in activity.

Got up at 7 and have been functioning just fine on only a banana and a kiddy yogurt, but soon I’ll make some tilapia with fresh mushrooms.

As I was coming up Oak and walking along the wall that divides the park from the mainstream, I could see someone taking a pool net and dumping leaves over the wall into the park. For some reason, I felt compelled to tell them to quit dumping shit over here in my loudest, meanest voice, lol. There was no reply at all. Guess they just weren’t expecting one of the “old” people to yell at them. Why did I bother when it’s something that doesn’t affect me? I don’t know. I guess I just like to surprise people every now and then. I wouldn’t have said anything if Tom was with me as I’m sure he would have been a bit horrified, haha.

The ants have been shipped but aren’t expected until between the 18th and 28th. They’re in a tube and because they’re so tiny, they have plenty of air.

You’re supposed to put them in the refrigerator for 5 minutes or so before you place them in the farm because that slows them down and makes them less likely to escape. In the translucent blue gel is enough food and water to sustain them. I have to take this skinny stick and make half a dozen or so starter holes to encourage them to dig. They’ll only live a few months. We can’t get more until all these ants are gone because each colony has a different scent and that’s how they know which ants belong to which colony. If you mix colonies, they’ll fight.

I quickly and easily finished the closet organization yesterday and I think today I might rearrange knick-knacks and shit like that.

Looked at the weather for the next 10 days. All 70s and 80s. It’s breezy today and I’m getting a beautiful cross breeze with the front and back doors open.

Dixie wanted to know what we pay for mobile home insurance and what company we used because she was looking into mobile home insurance for herself. So I let her know what the company name was after Tom found it in the file box and that we pay $505 a year which is included in our mortgage payments. It covers a huge variety of things, not that any of these things are likely to ever happen. I almost wish one of them would, though. As long as we and the animals were out of the way, I wouldn’t mind someone plowing into a corner of the house and demolishing it enough to call for a brand-new house for the rest of the time we’re here. :-)

Yesterday I decided to switch bathroom wall bodies. Rachel, who faces frontward, had been over the counter for the last half a decade, and Serenity, the one with her back facing the room, was over the tub. Decided to switch them and see the backside for the last half a decade here after seeing the front. Serenity fits in better over the counter as it turns out she’s a few inches shorter which leaves more room for throwing the hand towel on the rack below her.

I have one outfit left from my dancing days which is a very short, form-fitting dress. It does kind of flare out a bit from the belly button down. It’s a satin short-sleeved dress with pink hearts against a midnight blue background. I put it on the doll and it looks pretty good. Wonder if I would have made a lot more money if I’d had the tits to put in it that she does since those were the last of my less-than-chesty days.

The Gia head is on the doll now with the purple shoulder-length wig and greenish hazel eyes and she looks beautiful. She sort of reminds me of Taylor Swift as vapid as Taylor’s overall looks are. Gorgeous or not, she’s not realistically proportioned. Anyone with her body that had boobs that big couldn’t possibly have real ones.

Tom helped me get her leg untwisted which started to twist around a bit at an unnatural angle as it sometimes does. Gotta remember to bend the knee and then rotate the leg grasping her firmly by the ankle when that happens.
