Living in the present

My week has gone pretty well so far. I’ve accomplished quite a lot. This morning I’m going to drive to Norris to deliver my Clavinova to Samantha’s for Hennessy to play and take lessons. Mike and I loaded it into the back of my Sorrento last night. It was a bit tricky to get it in but hopefully we did no damage to it. I’m also taking three big mums I bought at the garden club mum sale last Saturday- one is for Samantha, one is for Sarah and one is for Sallie. 

After I deliver the Clavinova I’m driving out to Sallie’s at Canton Lake. She’s taking me and some other ladies on a pontoon boat ride and then we’re having a wiener roast at her house and I’m staying over and driving home tomorrow. It will be a busy fun day.

Mike is going over to his mothers townhome in St.Charles later this morning and balancing her checkbook and taking her car for an oil change and taking her out to lunch. She has been a little better lately but still some ongoing looney stuff just not as acute. 

I’m grateful for all my blessings.

Happy Thursday world🤗 Today I’m up early. I have to run over to Elgin in a little while and get my stitches out that Ive had two weeks. The pathology report said the margins came back clear. It was a two- color spot on my hip hip. The original path came back atypical and suspicious- “ technically benign”… At least it’s done.

I gave away all my cookbooks when we moved but now I’m trying to get one back. I’m trying to compile a new recipe binder with the best of the best. Tuesday I took a class on leaving your legacy, so now I’ve started writing my memoirs again. I’ve started a couple times since the death scare in 2008 but always got sidetracked. Now I’ve  got a chronological outline started with several paragraphs about early childhood. It’s a good project. Ive also been doing some family tree investigation on ancestry.com 

I’ve been walking 2-3 miles a day. It’s getting better now. My lungs are way clearer.
