Plans for the Day*

•  I cannot believe how much better I feel this morning! I was aware I didn’t feel completely OK yesterday but I slogged on getting a bit of box opening done. But I feel normal this morning, not tired and  not in pain.
• Have I mentioned I love my memory foam mattress?
• Talking about box opening, I have opened all the boxes that were stacked in the kitchen and still no utensils! I am surviving with a plastic spoon and knife and fork. Another thing that is in a box somewhere else is my food processor. I have the blade but nothing else. Oh, and both my crock pots are in a box hiding somewhere else! And my kettle!
• A thought for today: Opening boxes is not difficult. Finding a place for what comes out of the boxes is not always  easy…
• Well, I am officially here since I made an order to Amazon last night having a step stool sent to this address! {So far I have had my Very Tall Son put stuff on the top shelf of the cupboards but I think it might be somewhat of an imposition to call him to drive 13 miles one way when I need to get things down from there!)
• I have every hope that my car might arrive today. Even though the phone message was garbled, I did hear the word "car" in there!
• Today I need to put away the stuff cluttering the kitchen counter and open the boxes marked "Lamps." {Maybe I will find utensils in there!)
• Jake mentioned us going out for lunch today. Hmm, maybe not lunch since I need to stay in to see if my car arrives. Perhaps dinner…
• I need my wireless mouse which I think I left at Jake’s house.

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}
