Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario.
Other than an hour that I couldn’t sleep the rest of the
night I slept soundly and didn’t wake again until Kathy got out of bed at 8:30.
Surprisingly the sun was shining this morning but when we opened the rest of
the windows we knew it wasn’t going to be a hot day. Turning the Weather
Channel on while we had coffee and toast for breakfast verified that we had
temperatures in the low 40’s overnight and our high would just break the mid 50’s.
We adjusted the window openings to just a crack.
At the computers we read our E-mails and the morning Blogs
we follow. Kathy has been patching and sanding holes in the office wall where
she’d had me install and then recently remove some shelves. While I was working
on changing the function equations on one of my working spreadsheets she
painted over those spots masking them from sight.
We had just sat down for lunch when the phone rang. Our
daughter Karen wanted to know if she could borrow her mother’s expertise at
organizing for around 2:00 this afternoon. Since we had only planned to go for
a ride and some store walking it was no problem. Being RVers we try to keep our
plans flexible and most times can change them.
When we arrived she was cleaning the garage and loading
bottles that needed to be recycled for cash. It was not hard work for us and we
felt we were there mostly for encouragement and coaching her at keeping like
with like when organizing. There were a number of outdated documents that we
would later bring home to run through our shredder as well as sorting things to
be given to charities and what was to be kept. A lot of the clutter was
cardboard boxes that were only partially filled and things that were purchased
and left in bags. Once that was sorted through and useless STUFF was gone there
was plenty of space to better organize what was being kept. The change was
amazing.
Since everything seemed to be under control and we had
already had our Sunday visit we decided to leave around 4:00 even though we
were invited to stay for supper around 6:00 but we didn’t go straight home.
Kathy said she was hungry now and didn’t feel like cooking for a change and we
haven’t been to the Michigan Dinner in a while so that’s where we went. We both
enjoyed their Barbecued Spare Rib meal off the Senior’s menu. It’s a slightly
smaller sized meal even though we both walked out filled and it was also 30%
cheaper.
By the time we got home there was another major change. When
we left Karen’s it was Summer but at 4:44 this afternoon it officially change
to Autumn. Does this mean I’ll have to put my sandals and shorts away? Back at the
apartment our son Ken called to talk to Kathy for some advice as most kids do.
We watched the 6 o’clock News before relaxing for the remainder of the evening
and spending some time on the computers. Thanks for following along and feel
free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

Nice that you were able to help your daughter organize things. No, don't put the t-shirts and shorts away just yet.
