Nope can’t do it. I already have a headache and this prompt is exacerbating the throbbing in my head. I tried to make a list of the things I use on a daily basis but none are very old, my toothbrush, makeup, coffee pot, phone etc.

I do collect all sorts of old items as I’ve always been an avid thrifter but none them I use daily.

It’s a beautiful day outside and I plan to make the most of it since tomorrow is going to rain all day. We are having my partner’s Father’s Day supper tonight so I’ve already taken the chocolate cake out of the oven and later I’m going to make chicken parm.

I’ve done some laundry and started cleaning the bathroom. Two chores to tick off my to do list. I plan to spend some time outside today with Sid and soak up the sun. My son Taz came over this morning and we had a nice strong coffee. He was showing me the tattoo of a strawberry just above his knee that my daughter Bella gave him last night. I want a real tattoo. I’ve got it picked out, I just need to stop being so chicken and book the appointment.

Speaking of chicken, the Popeyes chain of chicken fast food opened a restaurant in our little northern city yesterday. We’ve all eaten it before, while in the city and my girls especially really love it. So of course we had to jump in the car and go wait for one hour in the crazy long drive thru lineup to grab some chicken for supper. It was anti-climactic honestly. The chicken was so so. Or maybe I just wasn’t hungry enough. And they screwed up our order a bit.
