I managed to clean my sister's roof of leaves and debris, despite the fact, I have an inherent unpleasantness pertaining to heights.

Finished one support plan. yay!

Got 3 weeks paperwork out of my way .. now onto other overdue paperwork issues . .

I did some exercise but not a lot
I bought groceries but nothing interesting
I stuck to things on my diet, but ate more than I should have
I helped my previous employer but failed to find their problem
I ate a new food, radishes, but didn't enjoy them
I napped with the fan on rather than turning on the AC, but didn't nap long enough
I got my light therapy in, but it was kinda warm for that
I got some maintenance task done, but don't remember what it was

restored one more song.

Planted 24 sweetcorn seedlings in the garden. Another zillion left to go.

Got legal paperwork dropped off , Nothing critical , just needed to get it out of the way . But since was out did alittle shopping . Then came home . That would have been enough , but after I pulled into the driveway, noticed some vines that were on their way to strangling my slow growing tiger lillies, honeysuckle vines which grow very quickly in the spring . So parked midway in the driveway,. Got out in my good clothes and figured it would be pulling only a few vines. Then found a opportunistic Poison Ivey plant starting its vines . In the same part of the garden.
So knew if I let it be . It would spread fast. So being a semi responsible Gardener . Parked the car changed clothes took a allergy pill and attacked that poison Ivey plant with Ortho poison of my own . Have had good luck using it on poison Ivey . So then I thought if that one was starting , and was dressed now for yard work . Dragged my
Worn out body all the way of the perimeter of the 3/4 acre lot with brush, and honeysuckle and stuff in the fence all around three sides of the lot .Found five more cases of Poison Ivey vines getting big fast. By the time was two thirds around it was getting Ill from sun exposure. So tried to stay in the shade . But was not able to for last parts of my search for Poison Ivey and other noxious plants .
Pruned some buds on the plants around the perimeter too . To inhibit their growth pattern . Before I realized it , I had been out in a very hot day for over 3 hours in the yard alone. Not including other stuff, I had done in the morning.Am worn to the bone. But got much done . Hope this does not cause me to be sick again the next day.

Tested sleeping pads and dry bags for leaks. Found several. I will see if I can repair them.

Started my driving course and drove a car for the first time.
