Morning all,
No rain here yet, though we're supposed to get some later today and tonight. I've been enjoying the fall weather despite it meaning I'm getting into the worst of my allergies. I woke up at 6:20 from a pretty normal night's sleep and felt drunk or hungover, of which I was neither. I had 2.5 extra hours to burn from last week so I texted my boss I'd be late, slept in a bit more until I felt better, and took the dog for a walk. It was rather strange but I hope nothing else is going on.
Last week I slipped off my clean eating train a bit. Strange work hours and a lot to do, TOM, I've got a zillion excuses. I am getting back on the train today. I've been going to the gym and walking the dog a lot, which is good.
Dagmar, glad Lucy is keeping you smiling.
Great that DH is also coming with you to back you up on visits to your Dad. It's great to have that support.
Allison, I love natural light too. My old office had one 6" tall window about 8 feet up the wall. What? I love my big window in my new office.
Bill, your grilling sounds lovely. It's nice when the weather cooperates.
Ward, I keep an old towel directly next to the door for just such occasions. Luckily my dog seems to enjoy being toweled off, even if she does try to turn it into a game of tug of war.
Bargoo, I wish I had someone to pass that info to but my gran is gone. I'll tell our local "Calendar Girls" though. Have you seen the movie Calendar Girls? These older ladies raise money by posing nude for a calendar with strategically placed items. A group of local ladies, most of whom are breast cancer survivors, did the same. They bought a mammography machine for our local hospital with the profits. Now they are on year two, and with the profits are paying for mammographies for women who can't afford them/don't have health insurance, which is a big number in our county. What a great idea for an important cause!
Have a good week everyone.
