I had a much better day.  When I woke up this morning all my symptoms from yesterday were gone.  I felt back to normal.  Yay!  I’m so grateful it only lasted 24 hours.

I went to Emporia this morning to pick up some groceries I need for tomorrow and Monday.  Got what I needed and came home.  I was surprised how much traffic was in town.  Must have been something going on around the high school.  Inside the store wasn’t too bad thankfully.

I didn’t do much again today but it sure felt good to feel good.  My arm where I got the shot is a bit sore but nothing I can’t handle.  Beats getting really sick from Covid later.

Tomorrow I am going to Manhattan to visit with some friends that live in Ecuador and are in the states to visit friends and family.  I met them when Craig and I spent two months in Ecuador in 2014.  We took a side trip to Cotacachi and a mutual friend connected us.  We ended up staying a couple nights with them.  They treated us like family and have been friends ever since.  It will be fun to see them again.

Monday is the day some friends are coming over and we are going to stuff the Pioneer Bluffs Newsletter.  More hands are needed and welcome to join us.  We will be starting around 10:00 and should be done by 3:00.  I am fixing a taco bar for lunch.  Come if you can – stay for as long as you can.  Leave early if you need to – no worries.

Tuesday I take my car in to have the wheels aligned.  I had to have my tires replaced as they were worn very badly on the inside rims due to the car being out of alignment.

Thursday I have to go to Emporia for a blood draw to get my thyroid levels checked.  Saturday Nicole and Geoff are coming for the night.  It will be a busy week.

At our Fall Equinox ceremony I set my intentions to work on three things about myself.  I am attempting to implement a new routine for myself and take some time each morning to review my intentions and sit with them.  Trusting this will help me become more mindful of what I want to do with my intentions and make some changes internally to put these traits to better use.  This type of work is not always easy but it is so needed.

Grateful I am feeling back to normal today, grateful for the lessons and rhythm of Mother Nature, and grateful I get to see my friends tomorrow.
