Getting Organized

It’s another busy week.  Monday I spent some time on the phone and made several appointments.  I still have several things to do when I come to Cincinnati.  Then in the afternoon we went to Barnes and Nobel (I bought seven books of which only one was on my list).  From there we went to Frisch’s and met for supper with Jana’s camping group.  There were seven couples there, and only two of them still camp.  I drove home since Jana has trouble seeing when it gets dark.

It rained most of the night with plenty of thunder and lightning.  This morning it was still raining, but it has stopped in our area now.  The bad thing is the sun is out and we are expecting storms tonight.  In fact we are under a tornado watch now.  Good thing that happened was my new bed was delivered while it was not raining.  The bed really looks good. 

We were very lucky.  Did not have any severe weather although there was a lot of it around us.

Wednesday Brian stopped and secured the television so we don’t have to worry about Penny knocking it over.  He also picked up the wine I brought him.  I found out that with the new medicine I am taking for my fibromyalgia and arthritis I cannot drink ANY alcohol.  Other than that Jana and I didn’t do much. 

We are trying a new way to keep Penny upstairs at night and when we are gone.  I hope this works because I hate shutting her in one room.  We are using a taller baby gate, and hoping that she won’t climb or jump over it.  So far it has worked the past two nights.  Now we just have to try it when we leave during the day.  I think she thinks the upstairs is hers and is her safe place.  She only seems to come downstairs to get me when she is hungry or at night when it is time to go to bed 😊

Thursday we went to the Ford place and Jana had her oil changed. 

Other than that we have been reading, dot-to-dotting, and catching up on some programs that we recorded. 

Of course, Saturday and Sunday we watched NASCAR.  Saturday we usually don’t get to see all of the race because of going to Mass.  But, that’s okay because Sunday is the important race.

It’s been a good week.
