All Work and No Play

Sunday, October 22nd, 2006

Today was another productive day. I woke up early so got a shower and worked on e-mail for a while. Then when Deb got up she brought me coffee, o.j., and a Deb McMuffin. Alice had stayed at 4th St. and I stayed at Deb’s, so Alice came back to pick us up, and we […]

Good Friends

Friday, October 20th, 2006

I left as soon as I could after school. I had to to the Valley to get Greg. Then I dropped him off at Deb’s before meeting Nancy and Mor-Mor at the Hampton Inn. We talked for a while and then went out to eat. We wanted to go to Red Lobster, but there was […]

Taking the Plants in

Saturday, October 14th, 2006

Today when I got home to Kelley Ridge and to 4th Street, I was so glad that my plants had not frozen. At Kelley Ridge I have a big pot of impatiens that I have kept alive since I was at TwoTrees, and I was certain the frost on Thursday night might have nipped them. […]

MAIL!

Tuesday, October 10th, 2006

Last night I had to go through all the mail that Janet had collected for me over the week I was on fall break. It took forever. Some of it was junk, but a lot was business, and many magazines that I wish I had time to read. It seems that my attention span is […]

New Era for 4th Street

Sunday, October 8th, 2006

Well, 4th Street is rented. It’s not like it’s the first time, since Alyx lived there, but renting it to strangers is different. Luke and Maggie seem like a nice young couple, and they really love the apartment. I could tell when she was walking around today, looking, and said, “I’m dreaming of how pretty […]

Walking the Streets of Richmond

Saturday, October 7th, 2006

Last night the Camry would not start. This morning I awoke and went out to see if Icould jump it. It started right up, so I drove to the gas station to get coffee. It would not start. Frank McBrayer was out walking and saw me and tried to jump it. I guess I thought […]

Piano Move

Friday, October 6th, 2006

I love my piano. It was my big present when Wayne and I moved into TwoTrees. He said I should have the piano, and then he could have his FoosBall table. But I think he was as excited about the piano as I was. I’m glad we had it for all three of the kids […]

Lots of Lifting

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

Today I mostly worked at 4th Street trying to move stuff either downstairs or to the van to take to Kelley Ridge. The morning was spent trying to clear up errors in my credit reports. I only found out about these because I tried for a parent PLUS loan in case Caitlan needed and got […]

On the Ridge

Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006

Today I spent most of my day at Kelley Ridge. I had spent the night at Deb’s and slept in until I was awakened by KK’s phone call. At first I thought it was my alarm, so I’m glad I looked at the phone and answered it instead of pushing the hang up key! Caitlan […]

Lawyer Day

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

Today was lawyer day. First I went to see David about whether I need a written lease agreement to rent the apartment (I don’t), and then I went to see Michael about finalizing probate and Joe’s estate (hopefully soon). Then I met with Jim about further work on 4th Street since it didn’t sell. He’s […]
