Ah yes! A platform! But we have agreed that the top step area will be a great place for this year's firewood! If I use the right words to encourage him to pick up a load in his pickup truck! The area inside that door is a hall with ceramic tile floor and close to the den/the wood stove. And it faces south so less snow, and quick and easy to grab wood and bring it the 15 feet to the Den. The back deck was always snow covered/north facing. And, since he parked a large travel trailer in the drive - hard to get in with a truck. NOW, a load of wood - soon! In the right tone of voice?
My physical condition has deteriorated in the 3 weeks of the fancy med. I am keeping an eye on how I feel during this week off. Today is starting out OK.
Hearing aids are a real plus. Interestingly, visiting with a couple on Sunday, I understood Jim and his woman but had trouble with R! But they are an improvement.
I love this fall weather- crisp and cool.
I managed to make mashed potatoes, and gravy (from chicken drippings)last night then went to Bed about 7 and read until "pill time" (9:30) My travails with tech - somehow I have managed to get notifications operative! These "small" things make life feel more manageable.
Next Monday, blood tests and oncologist to find out how things are going.
