Relax

I’ve so much to do to get ready for a weekend “off” I had to set up a task board for it to do everything I need for the home and packing and planning and dog care.

Even a key chain and $30 fob and key for the dog-sitter!

We leave Friday and return Sunday so it’s a very short vacation. What do I have on my Saturday task list? RELAX. My husband the physicist and engineer admired my board then laughed at RELAX. But that’s exactly what he needs.

That’s what we need. And that’s why I have a task board to visibly check off projects as they’re completed. Let’s hope they’re all up there! Cheers! Dee

It’s so long since we’ve been able to do that, even for a day.

New Ventures

I keep the photo of our friend who married us on my desk, until his burial and our move where it may go somewhere more special. Other things are working out somewhat.

Friday, my husband worked from home and after lunch we spent an hour or so looking for fixtures he needs for a presentation. Tripod, lights et al for for an exhibition of white boards (the kind that help work flow).

I crashed about 10 pm and he stayed up ’til 3am as is the life of a software guy. Dog still got me up at six am and we’re still on alternate schedules. Unfortunately I’ve got to get him back on real time today.

We’ve been driving around seeing the city and I’ve been walking and taking a few photos as I’m always interested in buds and flowers coming up in a town that has a serious winter. Next thing is to move (where?) and take off the snow tires.

Tomorrow is Easter Sunday and I wish you well. I recall the year my sister and I received, in addition to our Mary Janes, a new coat and new dress, a pair each of matching Sears plaid sneakers.

Now we don’t know anyone, and usually are the stop for people with family out of town or across the world or alone. I always have food for all, and don’t this year, and no-one has invited us being new to town. I had to call the market and see if they are open so I can make something just for us.

It’s not like me. I always have adult “orphans” on holidays. Perhaps our gift to Goodwill will suffice. Cheers, Dee
