17 April 2019 - Diet Diary- Alright! Finally decided I couldn't stall any more so started gluing down tiles today. The fun twist was that the box of tiles I had to order because I was missing 9 and even had I found them, would have been short, arrived today. I was told it would arrive on the 24th so was resigned to waiting to do all the floor. Downside, the tiles were discontinued and are hard to find so I was glad I was able to get a box but these were lower quality than the ones I bought several years ago. The color is close but not perfect, the texture is less pronounced. The upside, since I got them today, I was able to adjust my layout so that these tiles will be in the less obvious places in the kitchen, under the fridge, dishwasher and stove primarily. I got much of the floor completed today, up until I ran out of glue. I have an appointment in Kearney Friday so will get to the Menards to buy more. Lumber yard here didn't have it and the flooring store was charging 2.5 times the price for it, so will wait.

Kept too busy to eat much between "breakfast" and supper. Friends called and invited me to their house for oven baked chicken drumsticks, potatoes and salad for supper. It was pretty darn good, I've been pretty much eating out of the freezer or cans for the past week. Finished the day at 1110, good number. Next couple days will be more chaotic, have 3 appointments plus exercise class. Will really need a weekend.

Oh, took a little mint green Ford Fiesta for a drive today. Not a bad little car but then I asked myself WHY do I "need" a new car? My 1995 Ford Ranger has only 160K miles on it and has been well maintained, services on schedule. Parts of it are looking rough, like the headliner, but it runs well. Big factor in the new car debate is what would I do if I didn't have something I could haul 2x4s or plywood sheets in. Oh well, it was fun driving it around for a little bit.
