Still a bit sideways

but mostly better.

Yesterday we wandered around a few shops and looked at furniture. He's wanting to supplement our current 19 year old love seat and recliner with a full sized couch, and he has a certain style in mind. So we looked in a couple of shops in town to see if they had what he wanted. We don't have a rush to do it; Just sometime in the next few years would be nice.

It was a glorious day to wander. Not too hot, not too windy. Very nice.

When we got back we worked slow and did some fix-its that have been needing done.

We carried some furniture upstairs so the guest room is ready. Still a bit more needing to go up, but the most important pieces are there. And we'll probably get the other pieces up there today.

He fixed my broken toilet. It took four trips to the hardware store! Thank goodness we're only seven minutes away! He also fixed the broken plug in the bathroom sink. He's a plumbing whizz!

Of course we played with the dog, and we went out to eat at one of our favorite Mexican restaurants, and both brought home a tray for repeats later this week!

Then he hung a tennis ball from the ceiling in the garage so I would know exactly where to stop to clear the doors. When the windshield in front of my nose touches the tennis ball, it's perfect!

Today I'm feeling better so we'll probably do some paperwork, and then some wood working for my little camper.

Or he'll break out the chain saw and take care of that tree limb hanging over the roof.

Either way, it will be nice to simply be together for the day, enjoying each other's company in person instead of across from a computer screen.

I think maybe he'll grill tonight. I've got some chicken legs thawed, so a spinach salad would go well. Not used to cooking for two anymore. I've been cooking for 5 and freezing 4. It's kind of nice planning something fresh for a change.

Well, that's my not so normal day. Nothing earth shaking, but that's a good thing, right?

So, off I go.
