- a day off, it being Columbus Day
- spaghetti for dinner (which will last two days)
- reading a really good book (so far) called Walking Home by Gloria Goldreich---really enjoying it
- planning on a puttery day, and going to the drugstore for excitement
- tidying up, dusting, re-arranging and the like to settle my brain
- hoping the neighbors across the street will be quiet---police visited there again (but we weren't the ones to call this time)
