In Communicado

Another mostly quiet day, wherein I got a lot done - the old shoes and sneakers and slippers are gone from my bedroom closet (and I found my old yoga mat in the corner thereof!), the finances are finished, the comics are cataloged and actually being read, and best of all I talked with Mom. My brother texted to suggest I give her a ring at the nursing home, and gave me her number there which I had not previously had, so that turned out to be a nice conversation and I feel like, for as long as it can last, I have partially retrieved that routine of touching base with Mom twice weekly again. We go see her next Saturday, and start our Thanksgiving shopping next Sunday as I've already begun my recipe gathering and ingredients list. Not going to go crazy, just scouring the Food Network for things that look interesting. And now, on to dinner and the exercise bike!
