It has been a beautiful day on the prairie. The wind wasn’t a facture today and it reached the low 60’s. Felt like a taste of spring. The warm days will only last a day or two and then there is a chance for snow later this week. Gotta love KS weather. You never know what you are going to get.
I went to Emporia early afternoon and took Ellexia to Bruff’s for lunch. The service was really bad. We waited over 10 minutes for our waitress to show up. We got our food fairly quickly but it wasn’t what we ordered. The waitress didn’t say anything when I told her we didn’t get what we ordered. Five minutes later she brought some of the missing food and put it on our table without saying anything.
The good news is Ellexia and I had a nice time visiting while we were eating. When we were done she went with me to Walmart so I could get some groceries. I took her home and then stopped at two other grocery stores to get an item on my list. I then came home and put things away.
I am still surprised when the grocery store is out of stock of things. It sure seems to happen frequently these days. I don’t remember this happening before Covid. The supply chain must still be in a process of recovering. I wonder if this is the way it will be from here on out.
I’ve done three loads of laundry today. Other than that I didn’t get much done today.
It felt good to get out of the house for a bit and have some conversation. I didn’t have any anxiety talking to just Ellexia. She is fun and entertaining and keeps me on my toes.
I don’t have anything on my calendar until Thursday when I have to go to a doctor’s appointment. I will get some more cleaning done over the next three days. Friday I will need to go get some more groceries for the weekend reunion. I will need some fresh fruit and bread that I didn’t want to get today. I still need to bake a few batches of cookies for this coming weekend and the next weekend. I miss baking cookies so this will be fun for me.
I listened to a healing sound YouTube last night as I was trying to fall asleep. I’m not sure if it did any good but I feel a bit more clear headed today. I believe in the power of healing sound so maybe something shifted.
Something has shifted inside me in a good way, I have felt more calm and groundedness today than I have for a while. I’ll see how long I can hold on to it. However it hangs along, I am grateful. My mind is quiet today for the first time in a long time.
Grateful for the time I spent with Ellexia today, grateful for the spring like day, and I am grateful for my quiet mind for however long it lasts.
