DOMESTICITIES

I’d planned to go to either a meeting or workout in the pool this morning.  Only after I decided to go to the pool did I realize I still have an open wound on my leg from the spot the doc took his biopsy.  So, instead of getting out there doing good-for-me things, I am home doing domesticities like laundry.

·       I discovered that those old, heavy banquet tables that I used to set up with ease are now almost impossible to move.  I got one set up near the book area, and all the books for the book EVENT, they won’t let me use the word SALE, are on it.  I will go back each day and tidy the piles of slippery books from the 23^rd to the 28^th.  Old friend Charlie, the guy who bought the nautical books, came and took away a good pile. 

·       Domesticities:  Laundry, grocery shopping, staying out of the unbearable heat, and more laundry. 

·       Between all those delightful things, I’m going to start going through my pictures.  I got some really good ones this year, and I am looking forward to seeing what I have.

·       The picture of us in costume was taken by the Portfolio Review boss on Saturday.  Someone should have pulled my dress down in back.

• Himself:  Less of a crush at work today.  Vacation boss and two others pitched in yesterday.
• Myself:  Yesterday: Took the cleaning in , set up the book sale, came home and took a 2 hour nap.
• Reading:  Finished the new Pern.  No review yet.
• Gratitude’s:  That compression stockings work, that my stomach did well during the convention, and that Zoe was such a charmer.
