Thoughts
Dennis and I have been doing some thinking in regard to our forever home here on Stauffer.
Yes, we are in the waiting mode for some new front steps. Yes, we are in the waiting mode for our plumbers to put in a step-in shower. The good news is that the back order of their supplies are now in Fargo. Burke came by yesterday and did a double check on the measurement needed. We may be on track once the supplies hit Mankato and then St. James. Sweet. We will be able to take one cane and one walker out from the bathroom. The chair stays. The front steps are not of importance as in the safety with the shower.
It’s been a cloudy day and the leaves are tumbling. The pull-behind sweeper that Dennis bought for the rider mower will come in very handy this fall.
Our schedule is quite light for the next week. I am planning on a trip to Mankato next week to see a friend, Judy. Judy was the county assessor for Brown County. An additional friend, Doreen, was the county assessor for Nicollet County. We all retired about the same time and spent countless hours together during the working years. Shortly after retirement, Judy suffered a strain of macular degeneration and her site could not be saved. Doreen was diagnosed with cancer shortly after she had retired and she has since passed away. How could I not keep up with Judy.
Supper is Shore Land chicken noodle soup with a fried egg sandwich. Neither of us have had a very trying day.
