Just for us.

Did you notice on that last blog on Covid-19, there were more facts than feelings. 
There's a good reason.  I just can "go there" right now with my feelings. So I won't.

My morning routine. I get out of bed and go to the recliner.  Like many people, I spent years, jumping out of bed, hopping into the shower or otherwise starting the day.  I believe we used to say we "hit the ground running."  Never - rarely - did I get to go from one rest mode to another.  This is what I wanted in my retirement years.  I still enjoy that part of my day.  I get my iPad, read the Bible verse of the day.  Check e-mail and do my daily Bible study that comes from that.  Then, I have about 4 "brain" things that I do on my iPad to keep brain fresh.  Word puzzles, solitaire games.  But, if I have a busy day ahead, I can always adjust.  Lately, there have been no adjustments.  This morning, I thought to myself... is this the day I go completely bonkers?  
I have a few little projects around the house to keep me busy.  Things most people wouldn't consider projects or even bother with.  Eventually, after several days or even weeks will go by, then, the hamper is full and it's time to dust and mop a few things again.  Even though no one but Jack and I will see my results of the latter, it's still a good thing to do.  And besides, haven't we always been told to take care of ourselves first.  Put your oxygen mask on first.  So this is new to me.  To do all these things just for us.
Just for us.

I have another major project that I'm considering.  More about that someday.  And, maybe today I will finally get around to checking on that last refund of one of our trips that was cancelled.  So far all has gone well with those.

Then, Jack will be home for the weekend.  Two days - just for us.
I like us, very much.
