It's " Supah" (Boston accent) hot out today but windy so I had to go to Costco for Coconut Milk ($9 for 6 cans organic ;) )
On my way back I drive by my X-High school BF's Mum's house.. because I know he will be there taking care of his Mum today. It just makes me smile (yes he knows I do this from time to time, we chat on e-mail).
So I am smiling all the way home and decide to check out Sirius and IT STILL WORKS !
So I pop on the 70's station and ABBA is on , S.O.S. yeah I was born in the 60's so 70's & 80's are all mine !

I think I need to go out and wash the car and see what's on the 80's so I can crank it.......................................... what is the point of a BOSE system if I don't use it now and then ;)
 
Happy, Blob-In-Mold soap turned out just fine

It is Sunny and hot out, but not too hot today.

I have no work today due to Holiday.

Got soap cut and racked
 
BWHAHAHHA

Well at least your boss isn't there to see what you are doing. You Could bring in Soap labels to do or something else soapy.
I wanted to write up the description of the new scents I have but no way I can do that with miss holy boss of mine.
I would rather bring in a bunch of boxes to stamp.

I sort of wish I find a house too far and that I get to find a call center job I can do from my own home...... but then I may just tell them to HOLD and soap a few batches
;)

7:15 pm and I should leave to go gt new shelves at IKEA https://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S19903829/
I kind of wanted the taller ones, but I cna't fit it in the car and make the DD come to the Fairs with me ;)

Not sure she'd care as long as my work was done. When I was in Singapore basically all I did was walk around the office talking to people. I did take a ton of pics of the office for our global team members who won't be coming here to see it anytime soon.
 
My happy: At Costco today I learned that they DO carry my brand and model of hearing aid. I did not think they did when I was there looking the last time. But today I talked to one of the staff. AND while we were discussing the servicing and asked if they keep the parts handy and showed him my HA from my right ear, he immediately went and opened a drawer, pulled out the required replacement part and replaced it FREE of charge! At my (now) former audiology specialist, this part and replacement cost me $100 the last time it needed replaced. In fact, if I order it from the company who makes my HA, it would cost me $99. So it was the best deal I've got in awhile especially when I didn't expect it at all. I asked how much I owed him and he said nothing. I won't be going back to my audiology group in the future.

And when I need to have them replaced, the cost was much lower than I paid, so it will be far more affordable as well. I am super happy about this! This was a great day.
 
Gonna rain tomorrow, I am happy because I just took up some stepping stones and need to seed those spots ;)
Now if I can remember to toss some seed today on them
 
Pay it Forward

Earlier this week a nice couple leaving the resort gave us 3 beach chairs & a Boogie Board that we used for a few days on Beach visits. This morning we are flying to Oahu and have no need for them anymore, so I found a nice couple from Omaha to give them to for them and their kids to use while here on the Big Island.

It's really nice to have run across the people who gave them to us and then to find another family to benefit when we were ready to move on.

Here's a photo of granddaughter using the Boogie Board:

She had a great time and I was happy to find someone we could share the joy with beyond ourselves.
