Yet another doctor appointment this morning, the annual skin check. Which yielded all good news, and she cut out a callus or two on my walker's foot, saying I can be less gentle with my foot rasp, only stop if it hurts.
She commiserated on my outliving nearly all family and all my agemate friends, saying, well, if you take care of yourself that happens. Cheery.
Since this morning was cleaning family day, I didn't go straight home but went to Dollar General for a treat or two, because I've earned it. Little box of wheat thins, bag of peppermint creams. Lunch.
I was going to sit in the car there, then several huge fire department trucks drove up and started fooling around with cylinders of spraying stuff, so I regrouped and went to the park.
After a nice walking circuit, bit chilly for a bench, so I resumed the car, the wheat thins, the peppermint creams and a Mrs Pargeter I had on my Kindle.
I woke up a while later, after several dreams happened, I guess getting up and about early takes energy, and eventually came home and found the house clean.
Not only that, my nice family had refilled the spray bottles I usually set up for them. That saved me a step. And they'd retrieved a container that had fallen down behind the kitchen shelves, showing they definitely clean back there.
They keep me out of assisted living, seriously.
Thanks for all the variety of cabbage ideas. I'm still finishing containers of the Spanish stew and I can vouch for how well it holds up to freezing. I've been adding cabbage and water, and the flavor is really good.
Next to use the tofu in some interesting way.
And here's a nice reminder about keeping the joy in No Kings Day.
These reminders are good for every day, really, come to think of it.
Happy day everyone, try for joy! Sez Ted and Big Ursy
