So It Is
It is getting closer to the end of February. With that comes my hope for less frigid temps.
Staying put on the first floor of our home goes easier for me if I stay busy. Easy Mondays can be done when the laundry baskets look as if an eruption has taken place. Not difficult to push buttons. I like to get the duds out of the dryer and into a lot of places from which to pull from.
Dennis got the c0okie sheets down from on top of the refrigerator. One sheet got a lining of Reynolds Wrap for a pound of Farmland bacon to be done in the oven. Baked enough that when we want to use it, it takes a nano-second in the microwave. The second sheet was covered with a baking sheet of parchment paper for a dozen of the Rhodes frozen rolls to thaw on. The kitchen had the fragrance of a five-star restaurant.
With several balls in the air, the day does fritter away. This mid-afternoon there was a “Come to Jesus Moment.” I would not deny Dennis a nap anymore than mom, Lena, denied Raymond a nap after the noon lunch break. Upon the nap being finished, I need a partner that is in the present to pick up what I need help with. I did remind Dennis that I am a hard nose but still harder on myself than I would ever be on him. We hugged it out.
We all were given the gift of “Free Will.” I find that my free will has tighter boundaries than Dennis’. In the end we are taking care of each other and our home is in fine stead. Good grief . . . will I ever be able to put Esther Schafer’s voice out of my head . . . “It’s a great life if you don’t weaken.”
A container of an oven dish was taken out of the freezer this morning and supper is a given.
I did get a call from our clinic early this morning and rescheduled my lab work for tomorrow forenoon. That is doable.
So it is.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
