No poo foo so pedi-mani

howeirdMy GI tract finally decided to behave itself. Had a banana nut muffin for breakfast and forgot to eat the banana I'd taken out of the fridge.
Called for a pedicure/acrylic fill appointment at G-Lee which I had not been to after they treated my appointment like a walk-in, made me wait an hour and did a rush job.
Big mistake.
Except for the owner and one male relative, 100% turnover and most of the workers are male. Noon appointment started at 12:30 with the owner, but she soon shunted me off to the one male relative. He did both the pedicure and acrylic nails, and he was adequate. But slow, and his kit was past its use-by date.
Before driving home I stopped in at a new seniors medical clinic next to the nails place. Much closer than the one I'm with. I'm going to switch next week.
It was 3 pm when I got home. and 111°.
FL fisherman was on the water off Miami for a while, Elsa had come up the other side of FL. Storm chasers were on their way home, disappointed.
PTI was pre-empted by soccer again. 6 am news on channel 3 is now my standard. 13 is too amateur.
Made a meme:
Put Jade's favorite canned food out by the kitty food/water area, got on my hands and knees and lured her out of her hole and she eventually found it.
She went back in her hole for a bit, but she's finding places to spread out, and when I took a break from channel surfing to refill her bowl, she did not take long to dig in.
This time she left some over.
While she was on the window sill, Spook went over to her, took a look and then walked away. I suspect Spook sees a kindred spirit - they have nearly identical pasts.
Delivered a day early from Best Buy: a truly cheap Canon direct-feed inkjet printer and the wrong spare ink. Wi-fi, but their instructions wasted 20 minutes having me install an app on my phone which only prints from the phone. Another 20 minutes online with the PC connecting it to my router - needed to use the WPS feature.
But it handled the two-sided card stock like a champ, alignment was perfect and now I have 30 usable biz cards with my Las Vegas phone number and my social media links easy to read on the back.
Also delivered was my 4th Sonos speaker, now installed in the kitchen. I had to upgrade the phone app twice for it to recognize the new model, and to group it with the other 3.
And then I noticed my BP meter app was gone. They have a vastly improved new one, but it did not recognize my fingerprint or my password. Easily fixed.
Dinner was salad, a Church's chicken drumstick and mint chip ice cream.
Plans for tomorrow:
Dermatologist at 2
Charge the car overnight because ultrasound the next day will be a long drive
Continue to watch Jade become used to being out and about in the house. She is less frightened of me now.
