wimmhtw* 2.11

1. There’s some football game or something on tonight. There’s been a lot of talk about chicken wings and dip. I don’t know. I’ll probably just watch an old season of Great British Bake Off. (Kidding. It’s all about the Chiefs. No one in town is talking about anything other than the Super Bowl. It’s been insane. We will watch, of course, but I will probably be reading at the same time. At least, some.) (Although there is never anything wrong with watching old Bake Off episodes.)

2. Got to feeling rundown by the time Friday hit, so Saturday was a sofa day. Much needed and much appreciated! Already feeling better.

3. This week, my mother will be moving into long term care. I am so grateful to everyone who has helped care for her these last six or so weeks, and I will be happy to see her settled into her new home and getting used to her new life. I think most of us will have the experience later in life where either our body or our mind will start breaking down, but hopefully just one of the two. I’m so happy to see how much respect there is for my mother and her healthy journey, and I hope she will feel supported and cared for through her new circumstances. The years go fast. I feel like I blinked and a decade or two went past. It won’t be long before another decade is gone, so I am trying to stay in the moment and be grateful for everything I can.
