I had so many warm wishes and love coming my way, that even though the sun wasn't shining yesterday you were all there for me. Today the sun is doing it's own thing, and I feel the love today too! Thank You!
I was pretty much a slug all day yesterday....didn't even bother to get dressed and get the mail. It was cold and windy and that didn't give me any reason to go out either. I did get a few things accomplished!!! Emptied the dishwasher and then went through the cupboard that had my plastic containers in and actually threw away about half a dozen with no mates! (Thanks LeAnn and Annie) Saturday we did the same thing in Kim's kitchen as we were moving things in. Now when I grab for a container, I know there is a cover that matches it there. I also did some sorting and filing of a bunch of stuff that had piled up by my computer. So feel good about that too!
Kathleen called later in the afternoon, and suggested that she and Gary come to Athens for Joe's birthday celebration, and then Judy and I go with them on a trip to Savannah, Charleston and points East and North, circling around and returning to Atlanta the following Sunday or Monday. So I got all excited and called Judy and we both were in. Being retired and not having any responsibilities to worry about is so nice. (Also no chemo) So then I called and got my return flight changed....for a slight charge....but the ticket was free to begin with (frequent flyer miles). I'm so excited...not only will Kathleen and Gary be there for the weekend celebration with all the other cousins coming to town, but then Judy and I get to travel with them for another week. Judy says she see's more cards in her future!! I've never been to Savannah or Charleston....so looking forward to seeing them, also the end of October, the leaves should be turning in that area, and I expect some great color!
Today I have birthday shopping to do for Matthew and Nicole, and then get ready for the ARCC foundation "Prairie Home Delight" fundraiser. Looking forward to that! It should be fun....as a bunch of us retiree's will be there....along with a lot of friends from the college.
I am reminded to take advantage of each day God gives me, and I'm off to do that....Love and prayers, m
Mary, I am so happy for you going on a trip. Just what you need. And perfect timing, not cold or hot and beautiful scenery! And yes, being retired really frees us up to do what we want to do.....have fun!!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy tonight. PHD was always a lot of fun!
Hello Mary, we just got back from a week trip to Lutsen and Duluth and checked in on you. What a wonderful trip you are going. It sounds like a lot of fun, just soak it all in and save the memories for this winter. You know we have been praying all along for spot 19, and some day it will be gone. Hugs and prayers always.
