It has been a do nothing day for me today. I can’t think of a thing I got done today. I have binged watched ER most of the afternoon. I was overdue for a do nothing day and today seemed to fit the bill.

The sidewalk guy showed up a day early. He got most of the south sidewalk torn out. He needs to figure out a place to dump the remains tomorrow. I tried to call City Hall for him but it was just after 4:00 and I got their answering machine. Their mailbox was full so I couldn’t leave a message. He can figure it out tomorrow.

Tomorrow I have to go to town at noon for exercise. I am meeting up with Jason afterwards to drop something off for him. Then I will need to stop and pick up a few groceries.

I did take the dogs on walks twice today. Once this morning and again this evening. Trusting I wore them out and they will sleep good tonight. Kathy also took them on walks a couple times today.

The neighbor that lives behind my house brought over a sack of tomatoes and cucumbers. Yummy! I will have to get some bacon tomorrow and make a BLT. I haven’t had one yet this year.

My head feels empty tonight. I can’t hold a thought long enough to act on anything. It feels good to have been able to slow my head down and give it some space. It feels like I am juggling several things right now and needed to set them all down for a day and let go. The next step in each of them is not in my control and letting go feels like a good reminder. Things do have a way of working out if I can step back and allow them to do so.

Grateful for an empty space type of day, grateful for fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, and grateful the dogs help me get outside and walk.
