The first of C's Father's Day gifts arrived! It's a lego set where you build a gumball machine. I hope he loves it. He's already starting to build it. His second lego kit is supposed to arrive on Thursday, the day my inlaws go home. I love to see him happy. I try not to … Continue reading Father’s Day, Monday

Family Visiting
My inlaws are arriving for a visit this afternoon. They'll be here a week. Hopefully it doesn't rain the whole time. It's pouring today. They're staying someplace else. I wouldn't have minded if they stayed with us, but it would be pretty cramped because we don't have a guest room in this house. Well, we … Continue reading Family Visiting
Busy Week
I have a purple cast on. Last week I went to the orthopedic doctor and he said to wear a cast for 3 weeks to see if it helps with my ankle pain. If it does, I may be forced to wear some clunky ankle brace and weird shoes, or have my ankle fused or … Continue reading Busy Week
New Planner System
I bought a rainbow themed digital planner I'm excited about. I really want to start using all the digital stickers I have. I was torn between using a planner on my ipad and using my paper planner in the binder, and then I decided on using my phone. It's a big phone with a stylus … Continue reading New Planner System
Fun Weeks
I had bible study with my friend Y over zoom, I hosted a watch party with my friend A, and I hung out with someone new (N). I got to hang out with L my neighbor, and J too. What a busy couple of weeks. For me, that is a social whirlwind. Next week I … Continue reading Fun Weeks
Happy Mother’s Day!
I woke up to a fresh baked lasagna made by C. It was scrumptious. Then I opened my presents. They got me a new set of rainbow lights for my wall! I had been wanting those for so long since my last set broke. They gave me a little raccoon, a candle, some art suppplies, … Continue reading Happy Mother’s Day!
Taking It Easy
I'm easing back into life today, though my soul is still aching and I'm tired. But life carries on. Luckily I don't have to cook today because we have leftovers of the vegetarian butter chicken my husband made over the weekend. I'm running some bedding in the wash. I may paint. I know I will … Continue reading Taking It Easy
In the Midst of the Storm
The power has been out for 14 hours. I'm so hot it's ridiculous. One of our fire alarms is periodically beeping because it's malfunctioning. Wind whips so hard through the storm shutters that they bang and whistle. I'm charging my phone on my laptop the best I can. The house is a dark, humid, hot … Continue reading In the Midst of the Storm
C Just Landed!
C just landed at our local airport, and just in time. A typhoon arrives tomorrow. It might be big. I've got a bathtub full of water in case the water lines get cut. I'm going to try to make sure my phone and my ipad, and everything else are charged before the storm hits. We … Continue reading C Just Landed!
Taco Bell
Today I went to my daughter A's school for lunch to surprise her. I brought Taco Bell. She was so happy! I had anxiety getting there, and anxiety waiting to see her because the cafeteria was so loud. But I stuck it out and I made it. I'm so glad I did. She's in class … Continue reading Taco Bell
