Perhaps it was good that I've been away this week, I really haven't had time to think about today so much. I indicated I could close today if I have the weekend to get mother's dresser and mirror out of the house.
In spite of the crazy hailstorm on Monday it was a great trip. A woman who remembered me from last year in Boca Raton spoke to me at the airport as we were getting their bags and we "connected" with them almost immediately, perhaps sealed by the zoo experience together. On Tuesday afternoon we shopped, then drinks, then had a pizza dinner with them. On Wednesday afternoon we went to the "Garden of the Gods" with them and ended up doing a jeep tour. It was just wonderful! I don't know when I have laughed so much; the open air jeep and camaraderie was just amazing.

I did start something of a list for today while en route home. It has been pouring rain - but not storming thank goodness - this morning. I have been puttering around straightening things up. I texted our cleaning lady very late last night from Chicago asking if she could either come in the afternoon, or tomorrow, instead of first thing this a.m. and she is coming tomorrow.
-breakfast and meds
-empty dishwasher, clear kitchen counters
-find original POA for mother for closing (
anytime I have to find something on short notice I'm panicked.)
-round up dirty laundry, sort, and start a load
-update list for today, more things OMM
