Flowers can make a huge difference in how you feel, that's a great self-care move, Dorothy. And the food. Phones have "do not disturb" settings, and apps that will go into that mode when they detect movement over a certain speed, or when they connect with Bluetooth in the car if it has it, etc. Has R explored that?

Over the past few weeks there have been lots of appointments, and days when it was easiest just to tell myself "one day at a time" and not worry about how busy the rest of the week looks. And to really appreciate days when I don't have to go anywhere, like tomorrow.

This afternoon I stopped on the way home from the PT appointment and picked up the veggies and a few other things for our Thanksgiving dinner, that we're going to do on Sunday the 30th (we rarely manage to land on an actual holiday date for our gatherings.) With a predicted break in the weather and a warm day tomorrow I may go out and put up some holiday lights. Better up early and not turned on yet than putting them up in cold yucky weather. (Lights can have the same cheering effect as flowers. And Dorothy, the flowers that just make my day are the light purple mums with a bright yellow center.)
