Husband is working today. I had two of my grandkids for the morning. Their preschool is closed for holiday break and my daughter had things to get done. My goal was to get them to play inside and not get muddy. I lost that battle. They went home with muddy shoes, sidewalk chalk on their socks and pants. My husband is going to find piles of gravel on various parts of the driveway. The kids had a blast putting the gravel in their dump trucks and moving them. I had been in a cleaning mood yesterday and found a tin filled with rubber stamps and old pads. Crazy that the ink was still good. They enjoyed playing with them. The two year old didn’t get at first not to touch the pad with his fingers.
Next up was working on some estate planning.
I’m in the mood to clean closets so that will hopefully happen over the next few weeks. My husband usually goes skiing with a friend in January and I find that’s a great time to purge the closets.
We had plans to go away for a few days starting tomorrow but we are cancelling. Happy to be home and more rain is expected.
I’m in SoCal with S, staying in a hotel a short walk from my sisters house. S and I walked 8 miles today mostly along the strand by the water. It never gets old.
We’ll be heading to my sisters for an early dinner, then going to a garden (?) to see some lights.
Also, trying not to think about all of the snow at my house in the Midwest.
Took son to airport this morning after his long visit and got most of the guest room back in order. Husband did towels and I will do rest of laundry tomorrow. Our Chanukah stuff was put away a week ago.
I went for a podiatrist screening in the afternoon and learned that considering my extensive deformities and arthritis, I’m not doing too bad. She recommended an otc orthotic and is going to see if Medicare will cover custom orthotics. (Apparently my diabetes will increase that likelihood- yay?).
