Today was a coffee-fueled
day 😉
It didn’t start
out that way – and I was surprised that the day progressed as it did. My ankle still smarts, so out-of-house activities
have been scrapped until next weekend … but plenty got accomplished
today, here, at home 😊
Things started out
innocently – I logged into my FB Account for a quick peek at what friends and
family are up to today … and thought I’d update my account while online. I was
surprised to see {death wishes} are now a FB {thing}: so, I updated, while
drinking my first cup of coffee.
Then
I had another cup of joy-juice, visited with a Graysriver friend via Messenger; and washed my hair. Contemplating another
no-fuss day at home, I sorted through my closet for something low-key and
comfortable – and spied Bob’s walking cane in the back of the closet; so, I
hauled it out, dusted it off, and figured to put it to use today: not
anything strenuous, just keeping low-key mobile while house-bound.
My aching ankle felt relief 😊
So much so, that I figured a
little ‘light-weight’ activity around the house wouldn’t set the healing back
too much 😉
A few more cups of
Pumpkin Spice flavored coffees … and color was greeting my eyes everywhere they
looked:
I could have
used Bob’s muscle so as not to
have to manhandle the corner stand – but Bob’s muscle isn’t available
anymore; so, I relied on sheer willpower and his cane 😉
And by the grace of Elohim,
it got done 😊
Then another cup of
go-juice, and the final Fall touches were done – hey, I gotta do this stuff
while I’m stuck at home, because most days I’m out of house by noon … and gone most
of daylight hours.
I didn’t do much, so I wasn’t
on my feet long (and I’d paced the activity with periodic coffee breaks);
when I finally called it ‘a day’ with the coffee and busy activity – I settled
in cozily to enjoy a couple Barbara Stanwyck movies {October Movies;
remember, I’m on October-themed movies and songs this month}: this
afternoon, I watched The Night Walker 1964 & The House That Would
Not Die 1972. I like Barbara Stanwyck movies (a little cheesy, but not gory), and these fit the month 😉
While watching the movie, I
also worked some more rows on MOD Baby Receiving Blanket;
it’s 3/4ths of the way worked, now.
I’ll finish up the evening
by relaxing to the backbeat of soft music, and reading as much as I can of the
novel (an ‘October’ type of read), I started a few days ago 😊
