I am getting up around 5am these last couple of days... and I am very conscious of not rushing...
I went out for my run as I checked the weather and it was going to be too warm to run anytime after 8am! I came home and had a quick shower and had a nice chat with Annie! Maybe next summer we'd do some traveling around the States. She hasn't been to Yellowstone Park and Alan wants to go there as well... That would be so much fun! And we started to reminisce and I realized that I had gone because we stopped there on our way back from dropping her off in Boston! That's why she has never been there while I have! We went to Chicago on our way back and stopped at Yellowstone National Park! What a trip that was! I wonder if we can find the pictures from that trip this summer!
When we hung up, I got out some leftovers: this delicious tofu soup and had my breakfast! While on the phone with Annie, she asked how I was feeling? I said, "Tired!" So after breakfast, which was around 10:30am, I took a nap! It was very refreshing!
Since I am to have a meeting tomorrow with the Day Care Center, I took out the HUGE notebook of paperwork all related to Mom. But honestly, it was taking too much brain power to sort through, so I decided to file everything! I'll go through that at another time. I just took out what I needed for the meeting!
Alan came home and we sat on the counter while he had lunch. We still have a lot of food in the fridge!
When he took off for a massage, I started to work on Mom's room... But I decided to sit down and read... I was thinking that I would use the time to prepare for my talk on May 25th. Instead, I sat there and read for almost five straight hours and finished the book, A Life Inscribed by Rob Penner.

It was so nice to chat with you, and that you can finish a book now. I am still working on their paperwork too, and I have dad's and mom's annd fathers'. That profound sense of loss was ooverwheling yesterday
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you can deal with the paperwork when your brain is foggy...
