Full Day

It has been a full day today. I had lunch with Trish. She’s planning a rafting trip to the Grand Canyon with her oldest son, Nick, and I wanted to hear all about it. I just know they will have a great time together. She tells me I was instrumental in her deciding to go ahead and do it.

We went to El Potrillo, our usual spot. The other day when we were in there the owner told me he has noticed Trish and I are both always smiling. He said he loved that, that it made him feel good. It was so sweet of him to say something.

I spent a large part of the work day on the phone with tech support at Cox. They’re sending someone out between 8-10 tomorrow morning to check it all out. I just know I couldn’t get online.

Tonight I went to a meditation class at The Dancing Grouse. I’m glad I went. Diana was there, of course, as was Debbie. Austin and Amy popped in after the event was over so I saw them briefly. Austin has started a new business – basically hiring himself out for anything people need done. I may try to hire him to put together the rest of my bookshelves for the library upstairs. I keep thinking I’ll get in there and get it done, but I haven’t. Maybe it’s worth it to just pay him to do it and be done with it. I still have to do some painting in that room and I can’t get to the walls to paint because the boxes of books that go on the shelves are in front of the walls. Seems my house is always like puzzle pieces.

I did call Salvation Army and they will take mattresses. So, I’m going to donate those to them and get them out of my house. I just don’t have company and if I do a good air mattress would be better. I’m also thinking about getting rid of the fold out couch. We’ll see. I need to measure my other couch and see if it will fit in that space.

I wasn’t home tonight so didn’t get much done in the kitchen, but things are coming along slowly. I’ve got something every night this week, and an event on Saturday, so it will be awhile before much more happens in there.
