Stubbed my toe big time yesterday! Really hurts like heck! Did Yee this AM but am canceling the walk. I can get around but the walk might irritate it even more and I need to feel better for bowling tomorrow!

One dress down; one to go! Am particularly pleased because I was a bit creative with this one (Hannah's) and jumbled up the pattern and did my own thing. The logistics of sewing have always been a challenge to me but if I can do my own thing, it might become more fun! Even made a slip without a pattern! Wow! I could be dangerous!

Still so much to do! Will pick up Benjamin today from school and he and a little friend will help me make the last of the cookies--the peanut butter kisses! Friday may well be a packing day!

The house is a wreck! Hope to work on it this AM--another reason not to walk--save my foot for what has to be done in the house! So little decorating in the house! Not like me. I love this house but it is not condusive to a Christmas tree and I feel bad about that! Have no idea where to put it!

Heard from Lloyd and everything is good. Wants to play in the kitchen which is great! I made up some pot roast (4 roasts!) and pork ribs yesterday to freeze and have on hand. Good thing I did as Jeff was looking for supper and had no idea as I hadn't heard from him! At least I had things made up!

Charlie really crowed up a storm this morning but still have no idea where he roosts at night! We set up the omelet but he wasn't in there!

Dad seems to be feeling better and I'm glad of that. I worry that he is aging too fast.

So much on my mind! So many directions to go! Gotta go!

Peace!

Mom,
I can relate to the toe stubbing. A few weeks ago I kicked the bed post in the girl’s room. It was not the typical big toe but the smaller and more fragile three on the end. I can wiggle them without pain now, but it was a painful reminder to pay attention.

Way to go off the pattern! That is a good sign I think.

My house is not conducive to x-mass either. Nor is my schedual. I still have to put up some lights!

Maybe Dad should start a blog? I know it would be difficult for him to start, but once he started it could be quite therapeutic. Just a thought…

I have a funeral in Salem tomorrow, and a lot of work to do before I go on my next trip for work. I have a feeling it is all going to get crunched into a small amount of time.

Back to work for me,
Love
Jordan
