I started this blog in 2009 to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 16 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. 6/16/24 Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

Friday Comes 'Round Again
It seems like every time I blink it's Friday, again! Time is really flying by. As Woody and I often said to each other: "Times flies when you are having fun...and, even when you aren't! I continued with my reorganizing of my freezer and can say that I have gone through everything...consoladated some things, threw some away, put thiings in fresh freezer bags, etc. I'm not sure that I have gained any space...but at least I do know what is in my freezer now. I mentioned last night that I had taken some things out of the plastic containers that I had frozen them in and that the containers pretty much filled up the dishwasher. Well, today the freezer clean out lead to another job...sorting out and reorganizing the storage containers...had to find space for all those that had been in the freezer! I got a couple of shelves straightened out, but there is still one that I need to reorganize...that will wait for another day. I am through in the kitchen for this day! I decided that I had no need to go to Kroger today so skipped that trip. The only errand I ran today was to the Credit Union. I headed out mid afternoon and looked in the sky and realized that clouds were gathering, but figured that they would lead to nothing as they so often do these days. But as I was coming out of the Credit Union, my phone told me that it was going to start raining in the next six minutes and that it would last for 26 minutes...or some such. And, the phone was right...before I got very far down the road heading home, it started raining...rained pretty hard for a few minutes...but lessened as I approached my house. I put my car in the garage and decided to run between raindrops nd head in...after all I won't melt! I did get a little wet. I think that the rain gauge shows about 1/4"...we had a pop-up shower yesterday afternoon, too. That one really didn't give us any measurable rain...or so my rain gauge said. I decided that it rained enough to forego watering this evening. I have a load of wash drying now...so will put them away when they arer dry. I washed them this morning, but it was close to when "peak" hours for electricity go up so waited till we were "off Peak" to dry them. Trying to help out the grid...and my pocketbook!!! I plan to cross stitch and read this evening. I am a little farther along with Erin's Christmas ornament. It's turning out cute...though still looks very big to me after my tee-tiny stitches for the other ornaments that I have made so far. I started another book yesterday after I finished the one I had been reading. So I'm settling in for a quiet evening of stitching and reading...and, perhaps a little TV if I am stitching. To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
