This and That
We have had nothing but rain for several days and tonight it is cold in the house so I finally gave in and turned on the heat. Now I have got my Internet access back, I need to get back to the habit of checking the temperature of the day coming up on my Kindle Fire. I miss Fred for many reasons and one of them is that he always kept a close watch on the weather for me. He always made sure I was dressed warmly enough when I went out. I remembered this today when I went out to go to the drugstore and had to go back in to put on a coat.
The visit to the dentist went well. It was only cleaning, not anything serious, but I was glad my gums were in excellent condition and there was no signs of any cavities. I don’t know what I was thinking to not take my Sonicare with me when I went to visit my son. It is not as if I expected that he would have no electricity! I did bring the manual toothbrush with me {although I forgot floss!} and I definitely felt a huge difference in how my teeth felt when I got home to the Sonicare. If there is anyone who doesn’t use one, let me encourage you to get one because, although they are expensive, it is money well spent!
Tomorrow I must buy groceries. {Insert deep sigh here}
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)
In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an
invincible summer.
— Albert Camus (1913-1960) French Writer

Today, I spent more time at the ‘super center’ doing my shopping than I wanted to. I spent more than 45 minutes in line waiting to check out!

I remember Fred liking to grocery shop, back when he was able to. He was like my Dad in that way! :o) Joe and I are hoping it will rain here this morning so he won’t have to go to work and mow grass today! hugs, Nicky

Do you have Stop & Shop grocery stores in VT? Here, there’s a service called Peapod that lets me shop on line and have my grocery order delivered right to my door!!!! You might want to see if any of your local markets would do that…. Love ya! ~M

You have no idea how much I value the two quotations at the end of your entry: I have been looking for the invincible summer one for a long time, remembered it and couldn’t remember who wrote it. Thank you. The Rogers one I have never heard but want to add to my list of those I want to live by and to share. There are so many things that my husband has done for us over these 53 years that I feel you are reminding me to value. I thank you for that, too.

I absolutely agree with you on the Soniccare. I bought one and I love it. I could totally tell a difference and my teeth felt a lot more clean. It was expensive, but well worth it. Plus I get the extra heads from Amazon, which are way cheaper than going to the store.
