But we had a good work day at home yesterday. Washed things that were doggie, and got the wooden kitchen floor oiled after it was scrubbed, which was a very good thing. Both the living room/dining room and kitchen got a relatively good tidying and that always makes my heart sing. I'd been a housekeeping drudge lately, and needed to see things clean in order to feel good inside, you know?
Last weekend seemed so hectic, hoping that this one is more smooth. I seem to have been surrounded by scads of talkers lately and some quiet would be refreshing. Oldest daughter and I are going to the art gallery tomorrow morning (free before noon), and that'll be nice. She and I haven't spent much time together with her work schedule being a bit more full, so I'm looking forward to having her to myself for awhile. And planning on helping a neighbor move her furniture back in place since she just got new flooring. That actually might be fun. Will grocery shop today to free up that chore from the weekend's list of things to do.
Life is so regular and mundane just now. Not complaining at all. It's been full of drama for us for awhile and being able to putter around the house without stressing is restful. And before you ask---our neighbor with mental issues has been quieter as well. He did take off his dead bolt and door knob from his front door (not what most folks would do, now, is it?) and fastens it somehow with a chain, and is still acting irrational, but he's not quite as odd as he was a couple of weeks ago. Plus he's gone quite a lot. Gary suspects that he's self-medicating, if you get my drift. Hmmm. But we're not on pins and needles as we were, and for that I'm thankful.
Going to go make out my grocery list now, and hopefully get that done earlier than later.
Take care. :)
