Here we go. Lori is in Vail and I’m in Carbondale. Ty is off today and tomorrow but now works Wednesday through Sunday every week. The restaurant is closed Sunday and Monday. Lori and I both cleaned our closets yesterday and are pretty much done. We still have to clean out our drawers but we both went through all the hanging stuff, managed to get everything off the floor and cleaned off all our shelves and cubby’s. The top of the closet and shelves can get dusty after a while. We filled two large trash bags with stuff, and I have a huge pile to let Jagger and Ty go through that they’re already fighting over. Jeans, shirts, coats and more and it’s all cool stuff, as it was mine! It feels really good to purge crap and simplify your life. None of us really need all the stuff we’ve accumulated over the years. Just get rid of it, it’s liberating.
Earth hit the highest recorded temperatures since they’ve been recording them which isn’t all that long in the grand scheme of things. Hope winter is not the coldest on record! We’re lobbying for a mild winter!
We have a bunch of paintings to hang up. Yesterday we went to the gym and then walked the loop. In total I got 5 miles in. Lori went and picked up her mom again and brought her up for a visit. She was freaking out as she thought she didn’t do a good job at her job. Of course she doesn’t have a job but try telling her that! She’s pretty frail and easily confused but still has moments where she’s pretty sharp. She’s just not strong enough anymore to even get out of the chair. At least she’s not in a wheelchair. Once we get her up, she can walk, although it’s really hard and she’s really slow. She read in her hometown paper yesterday that someone she knows just turned 90! I told her we should call the lady as Dixie remembers her. That made her happy. I’ll see if I can find the phone number.
Guess it’s supposed to be warm today. They say maybe the warmest day in Denver so far. I think Lori said her car said it was 91 here yesterday.
Yesterday I fasted meaning zero food. Think I’ll give it one more day. It’s good to fast every now and then to clean out your system and reset your body. I’m really not all that hungry which is a little surprising. You need to drink a ton of water and a black coffee here and there.
That’s about it. July 10th already, wow. Soon it’ll be Fall and the leaves will be changing. That means football will soon be here, whoo hoo! Have a great week, God Bless.
