Shampooing the carpet

 

Wednesday

I got up at 7:30, having slept pretty well. Chris had a crock pot of chili in the kitchen. So I prepared for coffee morning by working around it. But then he took it to work.

I continued with supplements and exercises. I read with a red light and a full-spectrum light. I meditated and tapped. I cleaned the bathrooms and the kitchen, and washed the dishes.

I read outside for almost half an hour – which was good, since the sun then went away and a storm came up. I mopped the floor and took a shower. I brought in the gallon of milk from the front porch. I put half in a jar for Michelle, and heated the other half to 100. Then I put it in the dehydrator with probiotics to cure.

I checked messages, then went to 648 to clean for an hour and 45 minutes. It was starting to get dark, so I went to 111 to shampoo the carpet. The hardest part is getting the shampooer there, so I planned to clean the whole room even though they asked for one spot. First I wet the spot and ironed over a paper towel to pull up what I thought was gum. But it wasn't, exactly. Then I went over the whole room with the machine. It pulled up a ton of dirt. It got out everything but that spot. However, the spot was much improved.

I packed up and went home. Chris was there. He suggested we go get water. So we went, but the machine still wasn't working. Back to the Berkey.

Chris opened my watch and I put in a new battery. Yesterdays battery wasn't working.

Michelle came by for two quarts of milk. A gallon is too much for me so I'm happy to share. We talked a bit, then she went to the gym. I took the curds from the dehydrator and separated the whey. The cheese went in the fridge. I washed a previous whey jar and refilled it. Then I drank what was left.

I worked on my blog. I made tea and we watched one episode of Criminal Minds. I took supplements and put on the leg massagers. I listened to a podcast and the sleep track. It was after 11 when I went to bed.
