Unusual but Effective!

My oh my, it's Sunday again.  The weekend is nearly over, and it's back to the rigors of retail.  I woke up this morning with some lower back pains - probably a result of a couple of extra walks, some lifting and some exercise (on purpose) that's made me stiff and sore.  I'll gobble some aspirin tonight before bed.  I'm hoping to get a really good night's sleep.

My daughter drove up to spend time with my sister and her boys, she dropped by my house on her way home -- said she would stop by after dinner.  Mind you, I'm old and dinner for me is like eh, 4pm?  I know most people eat closer to 6.  She showed up at 945pm.  ugh.  Which means that my normal sleep cycle was a third of the way into my night and I hadn't been to sleep.  For me, that means waking up with a headache.  I've been this way for years.  Without my sleep hours, the next morning is pretty rough!  Thankfully today, there's not much I need to get done.

But I got inspired and a totally weird idea.  Didn't know how it would work out, but eh, it worked out fine.  I removed the shower doors from my bathroom, took them outside, laid them down and soaked them with CLR  (calcium, lime, rust remover)  then scrubbed them with a long handled brush and hosed them off.  Flipped 'em over and did the reverse side too.  Odd how much room there is when there's no doors - cleaned the shower stall right up at well!  I know, a little unusual, but highly effective! Trying to scrub a shower door that's hanging on it's track, it wiggles and moves and isn't very easy to clean.  Apply cleaners and they just run to the floor.  This way, oh yeah, they're shiny and new looking.  Lovin' it!

What else can I take outside to hose off??  lol

It's been a restful weekend, didn't take on any new projects, let everything else just be the way it is for now, as I felt I really needed to get 'me' back on track.  It worked.  I binge watched two episodes of the new season of Grace and Frankie on Netflix, then found myself totally addicted to another show called "Highway Thru Hell" - tow truck drivers who rescue folks who cross the Coquihalla Freeway up in Canada.  Fascinating to see them flip big rigs back upright onto their wheels, etc.  Almost always in the snowy seasons.  Not sure why this is so fascinating to me, but ... eh, it is!

Maybe that could be a future road trip!
