My entertainment duties are done! We have had a busy 24 hours around here but it has been fun. The guests last night were a delight. We got to bed late and were up early this morning to fix them breakfast before they left to go horse back riding. They came back to the cabin after their ride so they could change clothes and then they were off to go over Trail Ridge Road.

I fixed chili and cheddar Broccoli Soup for dinner tonight for Jim’s two brothers and families. We had enough left over that everyone got to take home a container of each soup. Grateful they took it home so we don’t have to eat it for the next week.

We all had a nice visit during and after dinner. It was good to see the three Showalter brothers together again. We missed Jim’s sister Jane and his other brother John.

I took two short naps today. I haven’t slept well the last two nights and was really tired today. I had no motivation at all to do anything. Maybe tonight will be the I will get to sleep longer than two hours in a row.

Jim went up to Housekeeping and returned the bed linens and towels and brought fresh ones back. I have only made up one bed so far but will get the others made up tomorrow. I was lucky to get the soup for dinner made today.

We haven’t gone for a walk the last two days. Will definitely put that on my very short to do list for tomorrow. I need to stretch my legs and get some exercise.

It will be good to have a quiet day tomorrow. I am finding that being around others is still a bit overwhelming to me. After spending several months alone and not around others it is taking me a bit to adjust to being around others. I enjoy others around at the moment but feel overwhelmed quickly.

Grateful Joe and Linda and Sarah had a safe trip here, grateful for family that gathered around our table tonight, and grateful for friends that came to visit.
