The newsletter is done! Lynn brought the envelopes a little after 1:00. My friend Sharon joined us and we had them all stuffed and sealed by 3:30. Too late to make it to the post office today but they will go out tomorrow. Always feels good to have that project finished.

I worked on cleaning the basement this morning. Kathy had left it in pretty good shape so I am almost done with it. Got the steps vacuumed which I hate to do. I’ll finish the basement tonight and then tomorrow do the upstairs. Thursday I will buy the rest of the groceries and Friday I will start cooking.

Finished the fourth of six panels on the first baby blanket I am making. I clean for a bit and then knit for a bit. I should have the fifth panel done tonight. One more panel and the first blanket will be done. I remembered my niece is having a baby this summer so I need to make two more blankets instead of just one more. I have lots of free time coming up so I’m glad I have a project to work on.

Kathy made it safely to CT last night. She drove it all in two days. Since she had the dog with her it was hard for her to stop and enjoy meals in a restaurant. I was happy to hear she made it there. It is a long drive!

Another hot, windy summer-like day outside. There is a haze on the horizon. May have some thunderstorms pop up tomorrow around here. I sure could use an inch or two of rain. My yard is cracking badly.

I managed to make it to the gym this morning. I couldn’t make myself go this weekend. I hope to start going more regularly after this retreat is over this weekend. The trainer was there working with some people this morning. I need to get started working with him. I have lots of free time this summer and that seems like it would be a good use of that free time for me. I think if I had an appointment with him regularly it would help me hold myself more accountable in working out.

I missed my class with my mentor today. It started at 3:00 and I forgot about it as I was stuffing envelopes. Thankfully he was to record it and send it to us. Last month he has some technology issues. Trusting those got worked out and I will be able to view it later.

Cleaning. Checking my list twice. All is well on the prairie today!
