Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! The forecast says mostly cloudy, but right now it's clear and bright, sunshine pouring in my window. It will be a little cooler today, "only" mid to upper 60s. It'll still be a good day to get outside some in the afternoon.
Yesterday: It was a fairly busy day, and a bit better in that we got home after dialysis quicker. I did a bit of shopping during the afternoon, and picked up a new phone - now I just have to learn how to use it! LOL! I also got (finally) a data-card for the computer; but it isn't activated yet. One step at a time!
Today: This is the only day of the week without either going to dialysis or having someone (nurses and/or therapists) coming here. I hope to finish getting boxes upstairs, give the kitchen a good cleaning, and finish up a little bit of laundry. I also hope to get in the yard during the afternoon, maybe get DH out there walking around a bit. :)
Today is "Great American Meatout" ... "Kiss Your Fiance Day" ... "National Agriculture Day" ... "National Jump Out! Day" ... "Proposal Day" ... "Purim (Jewish)" ... "Spring Begins" ... "Vernal Equinox" ... "Won't You Be MY Neighbor Day" ... "Independence Day (Tunisia)".
