Getting Out of the House - Social


I feel that in the next few weeks I will be finding ways to be social again. For a very social people, this is an area of my life that I need to rebuild.

I need to plan a day to go over to Hansville to see my friends Chuck and Carol. I would like my friend Valerie to go with me. 

Chuck and Carol were instrumental in Kari's recovery. At our church, there was a program called New Heart for recovering addicts and their families. Not many people are like them, but when I find them, I am drawn to them.  

Next Monday I am having lunch with my friend Susie. Susie was the Career Specialist at Kent Ridge HS when I was the Career Specialist at Kent Meridian HS in the 1990s. She is visiting her daughter and helping out with her new grandson. Susie and I both worked at GRC in 2000. She later moved back to North Carolina. We always just pick up where we left off.

Autumn

Didn't post yesterday but I was going to mention how beautiful this time of year is.  September with summer slipping away and long shadows, October is brilliant with color, and November is subtle and subdued with coziness.  As the wind or rain chases out the last of the leaves, one can see winter coming in.  I am grateful for this time of year and enjoy each moment.

Christmas Time

The fall season of orange, gold, and brown is suddenly over.  Pumpkins are put away.  But we continue to give thanks. It's been a lovely autumn.  October was brilliant with color in the trees.  November has been subdued but cozy.  Beautiful sunny days were gorgeous. Kari has been sick this week and didn't go to work Tuesday and Wednesday.  She's been left alone to sleep.   We are looking forward to decorating for Christmas.  We already had a few Christmas things out mixed in with the Thanksgiving decorations at our house.

Catching Up

Sunday was a really busy day.  I felt it was time to return to church in person and all 4 of us were there.  I introduced my family to my friends. Next was Costco to get Regan's cake for her grad party. At 2 pm we were at Tim and Angie's at the party.  It was great seeing everyone again.   Monday I got tires and an oil change for my car.  We also checked on the rebate we got in September.  I have to call the Refund Center tomorrow. Today I got the $189 rebate and off to Lowe's we went.  We bought things for the house and garden.  I plan to plant seeds tomorrow.
