Metaphor Mel removes financial weeds
Busy, busy day. I’m exhausted.
1) Woke up.
2) Got up. Right away, Go me!
3) Had a glazed doughnut for breakfast.
4) Finances are like flower gardens. They can be beautiful and reassuring. Then if you neglect them, even take your eyes off them for a bit, evil hardy weeds overrun them. So today, I engaged in hours of weed pulling. If that isn’t a metaphor, I don’t know what is.
4) Brokered a cease fire between two peacefully coexisting neighboring nations. It was easier than you might think.
5) Paused and reflected.
6) Went to the bank to turn my CD into a new one paying 4.5%. If left to their own devices banks will roll over your CD into a new one that pays you $3 for every $10,000 you invest with them. How do ever stay in business
7) The woman at the bank got me the CD I wanted with NO hassle AT ALL. She ever told me how to do the next rollover on line. She is a financial goddess!
8) Wondered if any mollusks have pages on Facebook.
9) Looked up recipes for bread pizzas. What a clever way to use up lots of idle bread slices.
10) Made my first and only proper meal of the day: ham and cheese sandwich.
11) Did Wordle in four tries.
12) Watched an episode about Saturn’s moons, part of a travelog on India, and episode about prehistoric Britain.
13) Worked on this blog.
14) Ready for more adventures. Latch hooking is on the horizon.
3b) Oops! I forgot to say that I got dressed. I most certainly did not go into the world undressed. Goodness!
Behave yourselves.
