The rain was so nice, and it seemed to help the fire season. I had a little fire going in the woodstove and it was pleasant.

Today, I’m off to the NP for the sleep doctor, who is actually a neurologist. I don’t really have any issues at this point so it should be quick. After that ,the library and maybe the gym. It just depends on how I feel. I need to stop at Winco for some milk and a few things. But I may just do that here in town. Sometimes the extra stops are a bit much for me. And of course, I’m still a bit nervous about the car.

My son is back from his Japan trip and it seemed it was a great time for all. I’m glad he got to do it. He’s coming over next week to show pictures.

I did some rearranging yesterday too. I was looking at Facebook and there’s tons of decluttering ideas but there are also ideas that an older person should consider in their house. One was not to keep things on higher shelves. Probably because of the risk of falling off a step ladder. So I had some christmas boxes on the top shelf of my one and only closet. I took them down and put them on the other side of thee closet where the shelf is lower and more reachable. Then I had a high shelf of books in the small built in bookcase outside the bedroom. So I moved them all down to a lower shelf and kept the top shelf empty. I didn’t declutter any because those books are nostalgic. Some are Barclay’s Bob Dylan Books and the others go back to when we first married. I have my original Laurel’s Kitchen and the Little Prince that Barclay got me. So nothing decluttered but made more accessible.

I do have another load to go to the Goodwill though of just random things. Honestly, where does it come from??? I will do that today and get it out of the car.

Last night I ended up having some soup for dinner. I didn’t feel like much else. Tonight, my daughter suggested a pizza but I’ll wait and see if that’s what she wants to do after work. I really haven’t been doing meal planning as such as. Maybe with the fall weather, I’ll feel like setting out a menu again for the week like soups, chilis etc.

Right now it’s almost 7am and it’s still quite dark out. Tomorrow, my walk day, I’ll need to gauge when to get down to the park. But the following weekend, this will be 6am as we fall behind. That’ll be ok in the morning but the afternoon will feel like I should go to bed at 7pm. ugh!!!

Well, off to get ready.
