Sunday, October 12, 2025 Keith has been working on the new cabinets (and moving outlets) this week. Today he finished. Yay. So many places to organize and store. We haven’t figured out what we want on the top, so that will be a while. We went to see Little Shop of Horrors this afternoon. It […]

Saturday, October 11, 2025 Keith got up early to go to a rehearsal in River Falls. I actually got up and worked on laundry and tackled the pile of cardboard in the living room. The cabinets aren’t done, but I wrangled the current cardboard. Because I am insane about reusing, I carefully cut the boxes

Friday, October 10, 2025 I worked with someone today I really enjoy working with and consider a friend. We don’t socialize outside of work, but I guess that is just from lack of effort. Her grandsons go to Annunciation school and were present in the church when a gunman opened fire seven weeks ago, killing

Thursday, October 10, 2025 I subbed for a new teacher today – in social studies. He had 270 (according the kids. I assume they know. I did not count. The ones pictures are NOT all of them – they are all over the room) bobble heads. My favorite was of Governor Walz – autographed by

Wednesday, October 8, 2025 Today is my favorite day of the year. I love October and 8 is my favorite number – so today is a winner. I told the kids in math yesterday and they were so confused as to why my birthday is not my favorite day. They excepted my explanation, but weren’t

Tuesday, October 7, 2025 Two good pictures today. This one AT school – I figured she was really just using the rolly thing so she had a comfy place to read. Smart girl. The POTD is AFTER school–Keith started putting together the new IKEA.

Monday, October 6, 2025 I made sure I wasn’t working today, because our new IKEA cabinets were being delivered. I planned to help. They arrived before 10am. Our COBRA health insurance is messed up, so Keith spent from 10-11am on the phone, trying to figure it out. It was going in the right direction when

Sunday, October 5, 2025 Friends Brian and Tory planned our outing to Orchestra Hall to hear the MN Orchestra play the soundtrack to the Empire Strikes Back. It is not my favorite Star Wars movie, but it was absolutely the perfect movie for this activity. I have not seen it for many years, so there

October 4, 2025 It was 85 degrees today. I had to get out and embrace the last nice day ’til June. I thought a nice convertible ride would be great, so we contacted Mike and Mary to say we were coming over. It’s a bit over an hour so it would make a good ride,

Friday, October 3, 2025 We went to see Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. We got there early, because Keith was very excited. We had seats (Keith called lousy) (I always figure if you have a seat in the room, you are winning) way way way up in space, nearly to the back. We wandered
