Wow, a day off and cleaning is the menu for today. Is this right? Is this normal? lol. I usually tidy up every day, but now with leaving the house for a job, I am forced to stay home part of the day. Oh well, life goes on, right?
I spent all morning scrubbing the bathroom, dusting the house, cleaning the kitchen, placing things back in order, gathering trash for the early pick-up date tomorrow because of July 4th. Recycle bin full, and have to empty that and all is well, smelling good and done.
I was getting the trash gathered when I spotted a big, fat Robin out back. Hurrying to grab my camera before she flew away, I managed to capture her standing proud.
Now shower time and off to the lake to meet my daughter-in-law to capture a bit of new memories of my grandchildren. Next to Walgreens to return an item I didn’t care for. The grocery store for a few, hopefully, items I need. I am bad about adding a few more items to the bucket.
Tomorrow at 7am, I will be heading out the door to the Neurologist appointment I have for 7:30. Whoa, that is early. I think I will stop through a drive-thru afterwards and grab breakfast and then off to work I go.
I am off Friday, Saturday and Sunday. What shall I do? I have plans to go to the Moose Friday evening. The rest of the weekend I hope to try out my new camera lens I purchased; that is if it arrives tomorrow as scheduled.
Well folks, that is what I did on my day off. What do you do on your days off? Off to the shower to become sparkle clean once again. By the way, several moons ago, this July 4th, I have birth to a beautiful baby boy, what are some of your better memories of this particular holiday?
Beautiful robin red-breast! You are working far too hard on your day off…enjoy the time with your grandchildren – that’s the best way to spend the day off!! 🙂

I didn’t spend as much time as I usually do. I got out of here and enjoyed life. Sounded like a much better plan than my original! Thanks for the compliment on the Robin and thanks for your great advice! I took it! Hugs

Life has to go up after we hit bottom, and the bottom is where I ended up. It is taking more months than I can count on both hands, but I am getting there and taking thoughts of Al with me everywhere. I sometimes talk to him, asking him silly things, if I see something I know he would love. I suppose this sounds strange????
