Good bye January. Can’t say I am sorry you are leaving us. It was a brutal month for me on several fronts. Looking forward to a fresh month tomorrow.
A friend came over this morning and we worked on her Advanced Directives. It was a fun session for me and I think it went well. She is going to do some homework and then we will meet up again for another session. It is a lot to take in and she needs some processing time to make sure she knows what her final wishes are. Good thing they can be changed at a later date without much fuss if that becomes needed. It felt good to be in service today.
Someone came over this afternoon with a proposal for me. If we can come to terms, it will cause me to make a major life change. Not sure how close we are to making a deal. Both sides have some homework to do and get some more information so each can make the right decision for them. We will visit again soon and see where we are. Exciting to think of the possibilities but I keep grounding myself knowing this may not happen.
Tomorrow I am going to Emporia to take care of several things. I have a haircut at 10:45 and that will be my first stop of the day. The furnace repair guy is to come tomorrow so hoping he shows up before I have to leave for town. I really want to be here when he is here so I can explain what is going on with the banging noise. It doesn’t happen all the time and with my luck it won’t happen when he is here. I did make a video of it so he can hear it in case it doesn’t bang while he is here.
We had another beautiful spring-like day on the prairie again. We reached the high 60’s again. I was out walking in the yard this afternoon and I didn’t need a coat on. Sure is muddy though. I still have some snow that hasn’t completely melted although it is dissolving more every day. Sure doesn’t feel like late January with temperatures like this.
Did some house cleaning this afternoon. I still have lots more to do but got some of it done today. I’m waiting to do the floors until it isn’t so muddy out. I seem to be tracking in and adding to the mess daily. I haven’t let the dogs back in so they have stopped adding to it. Sophia was begging me to let her come in this afternoon but I held firm and said no. I’m going to try to break that habit sooner rather than later.
Tomorrow after I get back from town I have to finish up my tax homework. I need to schedule a meeting with the coordinator and get that project wrapped up. I’m so grateful doing taxes is much easier than the prep work to get to that point. Still don’t know when I start doing them but I guess I will find out sooner or later.
I think I get to stay home Friday unless I have to go meet with the tax prep coordination. Saturday and Sunday I have Celebration of Life Services to go to. Luckily next week looks pretty empty.
Doing my best to stay present with what is tonight. It is easy for me to get ahead of myself and then set myself up for a major disappointment if things don’t work out how I hope they will. I have had several lessons on trusting the Universe to work things out in my best and highest favor and I am leaning on that tonight. I don’t have to know what that is in this moment.
Grateful to have been in service today talking about Advanced Directives, grateful the house is fairly clean, and grateful for another spring like day on the prairie.
