Another Entry

• Jake turned up trumps and took me to Target where I bought some groceries and he picked out a red-and-white striped {Peppermints! We are both addicts!} shower curtain. I am mildly cheered by looking forward to tomorrow when I can have a shower where the water stays where it is supposed to be! Now I need a red floor mat for the bathroom. I have also found a small set of white shelves to put things on. I will move it into the bathroom tomorrow. One slightly annoying thing is that the toilet paper in this bathroom is on the left and I am right-handed…
• I found a box marked "Towels" in the bathroom and so I now not only can have a shower where the water stays in the tub but I have more than one towel! Actually, before I opened the towel box, I had only one towel I had borrowed from Jake… I also found the soap in that box, too, which was one less thing to buy since the one bar I was using was getting very thin!
• I called the nearest Rite Aid drug store and was told that they use a country-wide data base so all I had to do was come in and ask for my eye drops. Actually, I will need my car since they don’t deliver. The one up the road from where I lived in VT did deliver which was great during bad weather.
• Once I get my car, {are you noticing a pattern here?} I need to find a doctor locally. I have started looking on line and find that there is a useful online site  which not only tells you where the doctors are located but their name, specialty, where they got their training, and their  age. I like to know the age because I prefer a younger doctor but not one so young that I know more than he or she does!
• I have most of the kitchen boxes emptied but there is still a lot of "stuff" lying around waiting to be assigned a home. I opened two boxes in the bathroom this morning but there are still two more. Actually, one is marked "cleaning supplies" so how that got in the bathroom I have no idea.There is actually quite a lot of storage space in the laundry room so I will put those in there..
• Hope I hear about my car tomorrow…

Fear not for the future, weep not for the past.

Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) English Poet

Be yourself. Everyone else is taken.

– Oscar Wilde

Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone. ~Fred Rogers (Mr. Rogers}
