3 Positives:
over an inch of rain – no thunder or lightning
rainy day foods
reading time

My Journey Notes:
I’ve added a couple of things to my daily and weekly lists in the last 48 hours. We’ll see how that addition plays out moving forward. The lists really do help me keep things organized and be productive. Today requires some time in the studio working out a problem with a design and hopefully, will be resolved and the project completed by tomorrow – a day before the deadline. Fingers crossed.

remember…

3 Positives:
Surgery for T went well – long delay, but went well.
Found a fun flower pattern to test out for an upcoming project
Everyone got some sleep overnight! YAY!

My Journey Notes:
Despite the long day at the surgical center, we were able to get a printed copy of our taxes from the office and they submitted them electronically while we were there. Thankfully, everything was accepted after our Pro found another deduction in our favor. So that was another plus for the day. We paid the last bill for the month last evening (it’s due on the 28th) and our folder with medical bills for 2026 is filling fast with receipts for co-pays. I’ll need to sort through and get things entered into the spreadsheet for this year in a day or so. Hoping that keeping up with it monthly will keep us on track to file early again next year (another added item to the to-do list).

Message into the doctor about some thyroid issues I’m experiencing, again. Not sure if he’ll want to see me before my appointment next month or if we’ll create a new plan through messages or a phone call. Should hear back from him by tomorrow.

Nourish you mind

My Journey Notes:
The surgery for T went well. He is essentially non-seeing at the moment — his good eye is patched and of course the other eye has very limited sight… just shapes and grays for the most part. No depth perception or peripheral vision. He was willing to give the walking stick a “test” run yesterday. He does get turned around, but is doing fairly well with it. It’s hard for me not to jump in and “save” him from a missed turn, but I am waiting longer for him to ask for help. At least the walking stick has kept him from walking into a few walls. So that’s a good thing.

He does know his way around the kitchen – he found plenty of food to graze on without any trouble. 🙂 So that’s good.
We both got some sleep last night – much needed after a very long day.
