A Sweet Day
Yesterday, Dennis had spent the day with his grandson, as AJ wanted to go to the tradeshow in Northrop. AJ had never been to one and felt better with Dennis most likely knowing all those that had set up for the weekend. Good job grandpa. Today Dennis went back to Northrop to be able to sit and visit with the fellows that he had known for a long time, but had not seen them for a long time.
I took the day to take care of local effort on the first floor. More importantly I wanted to think through my goals for 2024, and rough in my budget. Both two very important items. I had met my goal in 2023 in the month of December. Nicholas will be going on his class trip in June, just as Megan had done between the sophomore year and the junior year. Just as I had done for Megan to help meet each individual’s cost, I did the same for Nicholas. It is one of those things that makes my heart smile.
We had covered quite a few items last year in the home’s repair. Nothing on this year’s calendar that is needed. We take pride in ownership.
I checked out the studio and I am totally equipped for the entire 2024. I am a good planner.
I will be ordering several items for our neighbor to assist in getting the zero-turn tricked out so I can use it. I am doing that for myself as I have always enjoyed keeping up a yard. Not a big item on the wish list. Randy had mentioned that in the spring both of his sons had some plans for him in his retirement. One son in Nicollet and the other in Mankato . . . good to to be able to help them out.
The afternoon sun is bright. I have muddled through what my agenda was and I am on to do some reading. We are having left-overs for supper. Now that is a sweet deal.
With that I take my leave. ♥
