Hello!
Thank you Kathleen for starting the October thread!
Kathleen, so you got your daughter a Honda CRV, those are great vehicles so I have heard! and it needs to be fitted with the hand controls, and then she can do her practice driving
She certainly can be independent!
It was such sad news to hear about your good friend's illness diagnoses
I am so sorry to hear that, all best wishes to her and her family, and to her friends like you
also congrats on having your adorable pup Tully for a year! Happy Birthday/or Anniversary to Tully
Is your lake house closed now? sad!! and you and I share the dread of winter, I know.
Well today is Monday, my one day off ...I tell you, it is always a chore to work May - Oct with only one day off a week but this summer, oh my gosh. But the Club closes on Sunday the 17th so the end is in sight. No upper management has connected with the Chef or me, to ask if we plan to come back next year...sheesh. They really REALLY should check in with us because of what we've done to keep their Club running 7 days/week! while so many businesses have cut back. Anyway...I KNOW I have done over 100% and will just try to keep that in my heart. I have put in a couple applications around town..one business said that they wanted a long-term commitment and because I wasn't sure about next year, they declined on me. 2 other places didn't even get back to me but I guess that's what it's like today. I am not too worried yet. I have a stash of cash (ssshhh lol) so I can take off a few weeks comfortably and I am so looking forward to that.
We've had dreary drizzly weather for days and days now, I can't remember when I last saw the sun! and we are almost at peak foliage but the cloud cover has been so low, you can't see the full glory.
Kathleen you mentioned that I haven't talked about riding the m'cycle much this season and you are right
because of my committment to working 2 nights a week, I don't bring the bike on those days, because I am tired at night and now it's so dark. And since mid July I have the cooking breakfast committment and it is HARD to make myself ride into the dark cold mornings! boy lots of excuses lol.
I have only worked out ONE day a week all summer as opposed to every day when I was off!! yikes. I hope to regain some fitness once I have some time off.
and I hadn't vacuumed the living room for... a month??? that is awful I know but truth. But I vacuumed for a solid hour this morning because I couldn't stand it, dusted too, and this one room looks acceptable.
so that is my life as of now
it is still cloudy outside and a little wet but I HAVE to do something out there, either weedwhack or mow or rake leaves, it all needs doing.
good thoughts to all !!
