Just Waiting For the Kinks to Settle Down

I woke up this morning without the joy of having my feet hit the floor.  Maybe it was because I slept badly and ended up moving my pillow to the other side of the bed and actually sleeping across the bed instead of the normal way.  Well, I guess I'm not normal, a little creative maybe, but it got me through the rest of the night. So much for the soft mattresses.

I see some sunshine peeking through the trees so maybe I'm going to have a great day to go visit my aunt. We used to get together every week or every other week.  Now a month will go by before we get together. First I have to see what my body wants to do so know better than to make plans and look forward to them.  Usually I end up not going.  Not this day though! I shouldn't complain, yesterday I went to lunch with a young friend and we had a delightful time.  She took me home right after lunch so I could hunker down in my hubby's recliner and take a nap.  We sure do need those naps lately.

Today we plan to go to Auntie's favorite restaurant for brunch so I won't be on the computer for long.  Just long enough. LOL, I was just hit with a blast from the past.  My little granny just popped into my mind because she used to always say, "Just long enough", " Passable."  I guess I'm up there and realize what she actually meant.  I guess that is a gift of old age, memories pop up more often than not. At least they are good memories.

I'm writing in red today just to lift me up and remind myself that I have to keep moving.  When I stop it will be for good and I'm just not ready to go there yet. Too many beautiful days of sunshine left and  the glory and beauty of fall leaves and windy days to swirl a whole color collage for us to enjoy once the winds of autumn pick up.  I love it!

Oh this red is making me ill.  What a bad choice lady.  If I can find out how to change it I will.  Then it's off to get ready for my adventure for today. I'm sure it will be a beautiful 45 minute drive to Auntie's house and then a nice meal.  I don't eat that much anymore but I still enjoy going out to eat. I'd really love to go to a park and walk but just can't manage with my walker and so far to walk to get there.  Parking you know! However I will do that before the cold weather hits. I've made up my mind and I sure as heck hate to change it at the last minute, although that is the story of my life right now. Some days I just feel lazy and the effort to move is more than it's worth.  I know, I know, I have to keep moving and get some exercise.

You all have a nice day.  I'm certainly going to and look forward to seeing my aunt. I know she is happy I'm coming and since she is older than me, who am I going to please? Auntie of course. So here I go, Just as soon as I can manage to get up from the computer chair. 

Hugs

Oh thank goodness I was able to change the color! It was truly YUCK.
