Tuesday Updates

Good morning.

I problem solved -- best tool I forget to use!

Today was an empty day (after my neighbor cancelled) so I messaged my aunt and we are hiking (aka nature walking) around Kennesaw Mountain (about 10 minutes from her house).  I told her I had a friend cancel, but still wanted to go walking.  Perfect!  I haven't actually gone UP the mountain because it's usually too hot with dogs for the climb.  Someday.

I also wasn't totally joking about needing more friends, but I realized I have friends who I'm not reaching out to regularly.  Lunch on Thursday with my high school friend who lives locally (near my aunt, actually).  We see each other about twice a year and have a nice time catching up.  She's always up for a lunch meet up, but lets me initiate the plans.

I'm also ready to reach out to some old neighborhood friends to get them over to see the house and catch up.  Summer is over.  Whole30 is almost over.  It's time to entertain a little.

I haven't found anything for this weekend, but maybe a full week will tide me over.  I'll go to the Farmers Market and Unity service -- I won't be a total hermit.  Still thinking about options.

I finished The Dollhouse -- Fiona Davis.  It was a recommendation from another aunt.  I'd give it a thumbs down.  It read easily and was interesting enough while reading, but the ending was a total fizzle.  The characters never developed and I didn't care what happened to any of them -- and that made the ending stupid.  The good news is I get to pick a new read from the lineup.  Stay tuned ...

I went to the eye doctor and I had to jump my prescription again -- no wonder I had to toss some old readers.  I'm up in the +3 range and my distance prescription also climbed.  Blind as a bat.  Dang.

TREAT today is catching up with my aunt.  It's always a lively conversation.

TOOL is problem solving again (why not -- it's my favorite).  PB is messing up delivery of the replacement sofas.  I need to work on that and I have some other pesky things to get off my list.  I also want to problem solve this weekend a little more too.  I need human interaction -- maybe ask someone to meet at the FM?  I'll think on it.

Later gators.
