My friend left before I got up this morning. We enjoyed having dinner together last night and visiting. I have met the nicest people by having the Airbnb. This friend is one of my guests from several years ago that has become a dear friend.
I have spent the day cleaning. I got the guest room that was used last night cleaned and the bed remade. I cleaned the master bathroom – yikes was it dirty. Feels so good to get it cleaned up again. Will do another couple rooms yet this afternoon. Making good progress on my cleaning this week.
I got some good sleep last night. I was up going to the bathroom several times. I was afraid for a hot minute that the C-Diff had come back but so far today I haven’t had to go again. Yay! Trusting it will stay that way and last night wasn’t the start of a reoccurrence. I have an appointment with the Gastrointestinal Doctor next week to see if something besides C-Diff is going on. I was thinking of cancelling that appointment as I haven’t had any problems lately but after last night thinking I still need to go see her.
I have hung around the house all day waiting for the plumber to show up with the new booster pump but so far no plumber. He may still show up this afternoon. I will be gone all day tomorrow so hoping he comes today.
Jason and Melissa are coming out Sunday afternoon so we can plan the wedding. Melissa hasn’t spent much time in this house and needs to get more familiar with it so she can know how to plan for her wedding day. It is fun to make plans and look forward to their upcoming big day. The wedding is only three weeks from Saturday. It will be here before I know it.
Jim is coming home Friday late afternoon. Not sure he got enough work done in Stillwater but he is planning on going back next week again. Little by little things get done.
My dental cleaning appointment got changed to tomorrow. I have to be there at 8:00. The student is thinking we will have to go into the afternoon to get it all done. It is only the second cleaning she has done this school year so they have to get checked often. We spend a lot of time waiting for the instructor to come check her work. Trusting this student is better than the one I had last year – she can’t be any worse.
Ellexia continues to recover nicely. They are thinking she will be able to go back to school next week. She will have lots of homework to catch up on. I hope this doesn’t start her school year off so far behind that she struggles to catch up. She is a good student so hoping her teachers will work with her and help her catch up and not her get too overwhelmed. Tagen has to stay out until the 9th or 10th.
Don’t have much on my calendar for next week other than going to Topeka for a doctor’s appointment on Thursday. I also need to get my thyroid levels checked sometime next week. I will continue to work on deep cleaning the house and try to get that job done next week. I have some deck painting to do when I get the cleaning done. Seems like there is always something else that needs tended to.
I’m still feeling a bit restless but am thinking it has to do with the Covid situation. I am back to feeling anxious when I get out in public. I see so many people carrying on as if the whole Covid situation is behind us. Then there I am staying home most of the time. Can’t seem to find a comfortable balance for myself. Right now I feel best when I am tucked in at home with limited interaction with others. Guess I have to listen to my intuition and do what feels best for me in the moment.
Grateful for the privilege of being able to stay home when that feels right for me, grateful Ellexia is recovering, and grateful for a guest that became a friend.
