Oh my goodness, it was so nice over the weekend. I had Friday off to celebrate my Alive Day, and did some inside stuff - guitar, mending, etc. and went over to Encounter Cafe for lunch. So absolutely adorable, and run by 2 of the best humans I know. Saturday I spent some time outside doing some weeding and edging, and am definitely ready to get covered up where we put the fence back, but on the outside of the fence. It's been a long time coming. Sat out back and had a beer too, first one of the season. That was so good. And on Sunday, I got a visit from 020 (got in late Saturday) and we had coffee and cookies, then I cooked a yummy breakfast and lunch. We worked on some homework, took a nice, long (2 mile) walk around town and then had dinner. It was a perfect day!
Old Business:
- Still going hard with Power. Have learned some good things, and also good reinforcement on others.
- Chores and downtime are starting to find a good rhythm.
- Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine is starting to pick up a bit, and starting to enjoy it. I always have this trouble when I start a new book.
- Have done a couple more times of Trail Guide.
- Still bad with P4S
- Magazines are going great!
- Have Stress Test appointment and Echo next week. Yes, I did have trouble on the walk with the kiddo, but we went slow and that helped. But yea, I can feel it this AM.
- Have another LO done, and another one to start on the craft table. That's pretty exciting.
- Been trying to keep the garage cleaner. And I have 2 lanterns to finish up, and 2 more to start.
- And guitar is going well, up to 23 weeks!
- Made it to the lawyer to finish up my will, yea!!! And talked with him about guardianship of my younger brother. So I think at this point, getting on as co- with my dad would be the correct next step. We will all talk at Eric's birthday party on the 9th. 022 will be there so we can celebrate 023 with them!! OMG!
- Interviewing another therapist for Heart & Soul. So excited about that too! K1 & K2 and I have talked about it a bit, and they are both on board, and excited about the possibilities. It will definitely mean having to use the laundry over at K1's a lot more, but I need to see that as a good thing. K1 has dropped down to working only in the afternoons 1-2 appointments, so using during the day shouldn't be an issue. And we'll still have ours going, I'm sure.
- I'll be staying overnight with my friend again, after he has knee #2 done. Looking forward to catching up.
- Now that temps are increasing again (but I'm nobody's fool, I know it is temporary) I can start thinking of getting back to taking care of the doors.
- There is so much outside maintenance to do this year, I'm concerned I won't get the weeding done that I need to do. I need to get to where I am doing one, and then weeding as a reward while it is drying (like painting door and window frames, repairing screens, staining ramp, etc.) None of it is big stuff, just stuff I need to get done.
