Good evening. I continue to feel better so I did a short floor workout. Didn't do much, hung around the house (I can't be far from a bathroom) and sewed.
Anita, given the rising cost of building anything I would take any costs presented with a grain of salt. I know our little bathroom remodel was subject to delays and increased cost. I guess lumber has gotten really high. Maybe if they plan to use a steel frame for the building it might go quicker - but I don't know about the availalibity of steel either. I've heard housing prices are going to come down again, maybe buying into an existing place would be more affordable? I'm sad Gus didn't get a few more years, 10 seems young for a dog his size. Back when I was working I found a "home dry cleaning" product you used in the dryer. It was good for items that weren't deeply soiled. If Adelija decides not to take the dress, you might see if you could find that - would be less expensive than taking it to a dry cleaner. Laura, We need some of that rain here. We did get a little drizzle yesterday. Happy Birthday to your Mom. My Dad's birthday was the 21st - he would have been 100, feels strange to think about that - he was 36 when he died. Sounds like the weather there is all over the place. |

Good morning!
Today should be a quiet day - planning on taking a walk and pulling weeds. My workout will be bending, lifting, kneeling, pulling and walking . Laura, hope your mom celebrated a good birthday! I'm not sure I'd like liver and onions, but I'm sure you made them well! I'm fine if the co-op isn't ready till I'm 63 - luckily, I'm living in a very nice house and I've got the funding to take care of the new building while still in this one. Paula, yes, I'll have a balanced view of what they present as costs right now in the meeting tomorrow. I've still got my name in on existing places - it's just not as easy to plan on moving when you're waiting for a death or move to assisted living to vacate a space. I was hoping Gus would get to 12-13 years, but what happened to him pretty much cut him off of a good life ahead - putting him to sleep was a responsible thing to do. It also freed me for a future move. If Adelija leaves the dress, I'll take a look at it's condition and needs for cleaning. My dad would have turned 100 in February - my brother and I toasted a drink over the phone in his memory. Waves to all! Anita |

Good evening. Still feeling sickly but did manage to work out for 15 minutes before I totally ran out of steam.
I didn't get much done today but did manage to get to Costco and get stuff we badly needed and filled up the car with gas. Other than that I didn't do squat. As soon at I got home from the Costco run, I hit the bed and didn't move until dinner. Right now I'm watching TV with DH and it's the most active I've been since I got home. We're watching The Lincoln Lawyer series on Netflix, we just discovered it and are enjoying it. Anita, sweet that you and your brother toasted your Dad's 100th. We (my brother, sister, and I) texted about it. We should have raised a glass to him. |

It was a busy day. I had two training sessions this morning, the first virtual and the second in-person. After lunch, I had an infusion. This evening, I'm tired from the infusion and am kicking back and watching TV.
Paula - I'm glad you're doing better and am sorry you're wiped out by a little bit of activity. Hang in there. We watched The Lincoln Lawyer and thought it was very good as well. Anita - It was nice that you and your brother could mark your faither's 100th. We didn't raise a glass, but DH and I reminisced about is father's 100th back in March. You are well situated while you wait for a place to live.
