September is Winding Down

Time is zipping by, but it's been doing that for so many years.  It took a long time to get to fifty, and it will take a long time to get to one hundred, but it seems so much more futile.  No, that's not the right word.  Final, maybe?  Ominous.  Yes, I think ominous is the word I was looking for.  I'm not depressed, but ominous thoughts keep busting in on me at odd times.

The Good Stuff:
  • What a transition, eh?
  • Osteopath says he doesn't need to see me again unless I need him for something, and I'm to keep doing what I'm doing.
  • A very little work done on PBOTL.
  • Sorted the four boxes, but they aren't put away yet.  I did get some good trash from them, and that's out of the house.  Hubby found a few more.
  • Chuck's children did a nice memorial gathering for him where people could share memories of their dad.
  • Hershey route planning is nearly complete.  Hubby has put together a good route. 
  • Got the refrigerator and freezer cleaned and refreshed after the power outage fiasco from last month.
The Not So Good Stuff:
  • Hubby wasn't feeling up to under house work this weekend, so we didn't get that part of the weekend plans done. He did say he's feeling a little recharged, so a down weekend was probably what he needed.  He'll be back up here on Thursday.
  • After a really good weight week last week, this week has been really bad.
  • My grandmother is having a tough week, and her doctor thinks she needs to be in a nursing home.  Mom says they have a doctor appointment on Thursday.  We'll see how things go.  She'll be 95 in December (Grandma, not Mom).
The Week Ahead:
  • Work on PBOTL.
  • Begin gathering what we need to take to Hershey.
  • Continue work on the boxes in the blue room.

I think the 'ominous' is normal for a lot of people lately. Scary times all around. Also, reaching the approximate halfway point of our lives is... tough.

Sounds like you got a lot accomplished. {{huggs}} on the rest. Good luck with your grandma. It's a tough issue for most any family. More {{huggs}}
