Another quiet, stay-at-home type of day on the prairie. I did get a batch of cookies made for the Workshop tomorrow. I picked up a little bit around here but haven’t done much else today. I fell asleep in my chair and took a short nap this afternoon. Lazy, beautiful day on the prairie today.
A neighbor came up and got two dozen eggs. We had a nice short visit. I got some good information from her so the timing of her visit was divinely inspired.
I have someone coming over in a bit to talk some business with me. We shall see where this all goes. Hoping for the best but not expecting anything to change. We shall see what happens.
The girls gave me 21 eggs today. One was broken so they got that one back. It is drying up a bit down there. I still wore my muck boots and was glad I had them on but am thinking by the first of the week the mud will be dry. The girls are approving of this mild weather we are having right now. It was forecast to be in the low 40’s and we got up to the upper 50’s today.
If the night temperature would warm up a bit the EFIS guys could get the house done. It has to be above 40 day and night for four or five days before they will come to do the work. Daytime temperatures are making it way past that but we are still getting too cold during the night.
I did get two more forms for tomorrow’s workshop typed up. I’m grateful I remembered to get those done.
Tomorrow will be a busy day with the locksmith coming in the morning and the Advanced Directive Workshop in the afternoon. I still have room in the Workshop if you want to join us. Cost is $25 and that will get you most, if not all the way, complete with your end of life care plan. It should be informative and I will make it as fun as possible. It is a heavy subject to talk about but it does provide a lot of peace when you are done. It is a wonderful gift to give your loved ones.
Sunday Tagen and Lily are coming out for dinner and to watch the game. Not sure if Michelle and Ellexia are coming or not. Not sure what I am fixing yet but I will figure that out Sunday. Just need to fix lots whatever it is! That man-child can eat.
Monday at 1:30 I have to be at Emporia Fitness for my first exercise class. Someone from KU Research Program is coming to give me a new Fitbit and to make sure I get started out OK. I will be going to the gym three days a week and then on the other days doing exercises at home. Sure hope I enjoy this and it works for me.
Next Wednesday I will do two sessions of tax prep and fit exercise in between the two sessions. Don’t have anything else on my calendar next week except another exercise class on Friday.
Need to make a trip to either Topeka or Wichita one of these days soon and get deck paint. It has been warm enough to paint during the day. I may go ahead and get the front decks done before the EFIS gets repaired. They don’t have much to do on the east side of the house except around the windows so I think I will be good to get that done before they come. I may change the color of the deck paint. What I have shows dirt too much – especially with the dog’s dirty paws walking all over it.
Ever since I had that day in January when I realized the Universe has my back and can line things up to my advantage, I feel I have shifted. I keep noticing more and more how things are working out for me. I still struggle to allow the journey to unfold in a new way and on a timeline I don’t know. I keep reminding myself to stay patient and allow. All is well and all will be well!
Grateful for a short nap in my chair this afternoon, grateful for a divinely timed visit from a friend today, and grateful for another reminder that the Universe has my back.
