Rough night for sleep. I was sleeping really good late morning when my brother came to bring me a check for the beef he got in early August. I got up and we had a nice visit.
I posted the month-end report for Love in Action. Have gotten two donations today for a total of $150. I appreciate the support.
Someone sent me a PM and said they had some donations to pick up and we need to figure out a way to get them to me. Not sure what to reply yet. I do not have room to start accepting donations for the Go Bags and I am not even sure we are going to do them. I don’t want to discourage the donation but am a bit cautious about accepting it too. I will sit with it tonight and then respond tomorrow.
I am tired tonight. I could easily fall asleep right now. It is too early though as I would be up at 4:00 in the morning. Maybe my writing will wake me up a bit and I can stay awake until bedtime.
A friend did a fundraiser and made pans of lasagna with a loaf of French bread. The lasagna is frozen so I can heat it up whenever I have a crowd for a meal. I drove out and picked it up this evening. Maybe we will have it for our next family day.
I remembered to call and make a Vet appointment for Roxy, She has a sore on her stomach that has been here for a bit. It gets worse and then it gets better. It has been going on for too long and I had kept forgetting to call for an appointment. I take her in Wednesday afternoon. The dogs spent most of the day inside as it was over 100 here today.
The return address labels I ordered came in. I need to take them up to the Center tomorrow along with some stamps. They put them on envelopes so the Detainees can write Love in Action a letter or send a card. I had given them 300 before and I certainly have not received 300 notes and letters but she said she was out of them. Sometimes I scratch my head and wonder what is going on but I honor her needs.
Didn’t get much done today. Low energy type of day for me. Nothing urgent on my pending list to do though. I still have a couple more places in the house I need to deep clean but dirt seems to wait for me. I’m not expecting company anytime soon so it will wait till I get to it.
Need to find someone that can update my website. My neighbor kid is going to be in KC probably until the end of the week and I would like to get it updated before then. Anyone know of anyone that can do that? I can send them the login information to the website but I have no idea what to do after that.
Still waiting on a couple things to come in before I can put together the appreciation bags for the Center staff. I do want to put a handwritten note in each of them and if I was smart I would start writing those out. It will take me a bit to get 80 of them written.
KU called Kathy today to schedule her an appointment at the Memory Clinic. It is for next week. I had thought next week would be the first week in 12 weeks that I didn’t have to go out of town but my streak will continue. The following week I have to go to Topeka. Unusual for me to go out of town for 14 straight weeks. We will probably make a day of it and have lunch, go to her appointment and then make a stop at Costco afterwards.
I go to Topeka on Friday this week for an appointment with the NP at my endocrinologist office. Now that it has been almost ten years since my cancer diagnosis I am wondering if they will cut back how often they need to see me. They prescribe my thyroid medication so am assuming I will still need to go annually. That will be better than every six months like I have been doing.
Have a bit of a headache and am exhausted this evening. Trusting I will be able to get some good sleep tonight. My body feels a bit out of whack but not sure why. We are coming out of eclipse season and I may not have fully recovered from that yet.
Grateful for a pan of lasagna in the freezer tonight, grateful to see my baby brother today, and grateful I can take a day of rest when my body asks me too.
