Today has been beautiful, but I slept all day since I did not sleep one minute last night. This past week I have been sleeping a lot! I actually fall asleep after a nap. Of course, I just chalk it up to laziness and not to the uti I have. It has been a very long time (nine months?) since this occurred. So, I am taking an antibiotic!
Today, Tommy and I had a little outing planned, but I called and cancelled. Tomorrow, we will catch the second day of a festival. By the time we head out, I will have three pills in me. Hopefully, I will sleep tonight.
Thursday night was so much fun! The finale of The Big Bang Theory was very satisfying, fabulous, in fact. Then, after watching Young Sheldon, there was an after-show program. I cannot imagine how TBBT could have ended better.
I drank the last of my milk on Wednesday night and have not had the gumption to go buy more. So, you know I feel horrible. I love milk! The car has not moved since early Wednesday.
I managed to cook cheap turkey tenders with herb seasoning last night for us to eat. The plan is to make cole slaw and have a salad. Eating poorly and becoming dehydrated always happen when I am ill with uti.. My goal for this evening is to drink 3 bottles of water. I refill my water bottle.
Because I felt ill, I have not picked up all the trash that an animal dragged from the garbage can. But, I stopped the pilfering by placing a Rubbermaid bin destined for garbage pickup inside the top of the can. THEN, I will put my one garbage can with a lid for trash. I put trash that is not inviting in a separate can. The Rubbermaid bin has a hole in it, so it does not collect water.
In a few minutes, I need to go take the hypertufa pot off the pot it is over, the mold. Right now, it is wrapped in plastic. All I need to do is keep it damp and wrapped in plastic for another month.

Maybe. . .
Just, maybe my yard has been rid of horrible little chipmunks. There are signs.
Yesterday, as I came into the house, I saw a bit of color I had not seen in several years--a wild strawberry. For years I would eat them straight from the ground. This is not a case of gathering a bowl full, just a few here and there as I walked to or from the car each day.
The second sign is the return of Hosta. There were about eight huge Hosta that were destroyed last year, or was it two years ago. Plus, the two Hosta in pots on each side of entrance to back yard were destroyed. Tiny bits have returned and not been eaten.
The third sign is the lack of interest in my yard by my new cat. When she was not mine, she spent every day stalking chipmunks in my yard. Now, I never see her! Part of the problem with her absence is that someone else has appropriated my cat.
At any rate, I found a wild strawberry Saturday. It was bitten, so I just picked it and looked at it and was happy. I have hope. I wonder how much nutrition wild strawberries supply. ???
That reminds me--I have strawberries in the refrigerator that need my attention!
My hypertufa pot is still in the car because it is too heavy for me to lift. It is on the board and wrapped in plastic. Every day I must unwrap it and spritz with water to keep it damp so it will set up. If it dries out, it will crack.
Okay, I have things to do. And, I am hungry and in need of an injection so I can eat. There is no rain today, unlike the last four days, so it is going to be a good day no matter what happens.
Do you ever see or eat wild strawberries? Mine are the size of a green pea, sometimes twice the size of a green pea.
