Morning ...
Hummm...let see. I have an appointment for my B12 shot at 11, then I’ll take my SUV to be washed and clean. Need to stop at the mall to get a new battery for my watch, and then on to get my tootsies done.
We start our traveling adventure on Tue. Tomorrow I will make our hotel reservations. Been watching the weather to make sure our northern route won’t be experiencing snow.
Yesterday I gathered every thing I am taking to the “kids”. They want to start a family during the summer and I have several pictures for their nurseary. One is a large singed print cartoon style of Noah’s ark, another is one that my BFF gave to my son 37 years ago, and the other is a picture that my son drew of a clown at age 5 that I framed. I also have 12 fairy tale plates, 8” in size, that my father gave to my son when he was born. They were made by the Franklin Mint when my father managed it.
I also have several sterling silver baby utensils which I use. Some have been in the family for 125 years or more. Also encluded is my silver drinking cup and a few cereal bowls and cups given to my son when he was born. So along with our stuff, plus Willis’ things our SUV will be packed. We have Willis’ kennel set up and secured in the back. He has plenty of room and is quit happy traveling to ride in it.
I am using my planner to keep track of things I need to do and pack. I have a list for myself that I keep on my computer and print it each time I travel. I use my guest bed and room as a staging area and follow my list to pack as I go. I also put every thing I want to take, like the pictures and box of plates in there as well. That way I know I haven’t forgotten anything when the room is empty.
I have the rest of my week planned to match according to what needs to be done. Saturday Willis and I will meet up with his new doggie friends.
Between Tue and Wed with all my buzzing around I must have worn myself out because yesterday afternoon I ended up taking a nap for an hour. That’s something that rarely occurs around here. I didn’t get my steps in either, but not gonna give myself a hard time about it.
Off to start my day...somewhere in the past three days I also clean my home. I vacuumed my tile, but didn’t mop it. Will bless my home during the weekend because I always enjoying coming home to a cleaned home. My mil who is no longer here, never traveled anywhere without cleaning both her home AND over. When I asked her why she told me it was Incase she died while gone, and others had to get in her home to take care of business. She worried that others would think she wasn’t a good home maker.
Off to start my day. Footprints were removed last night so now I can have my second cup of coffee and enjoy Perry while I piddy around my house. Waving to y’all ..
