04-26-23 An uplifting day
The morning began with putting on my lovely new Llama earrings and seeing a fresh bloom in my garden.
I hopped in the jeep to go see R-A at Encore and drop off a few things. The pool tables had arrived and the sound system was at the ready. They were busy canning beer. There is a mobile guy that comes round to do it, and it was cool to watch through the brewery window.
While I was there I received a call that Mom had fallen out of bed. I made my way there and found her with her leg up and a huge welt on her shin. She had her leg up and an icepack and seemed in good spirits. She opened her mail and I paid her bills. We had a short visit before I had to get to the office and left word for the nurse to phone me when they changed shifts. It is a shame as she is only a couple weeks away from getting home. I hope this doesn’t set her back.We talked again about the Notary and she seemed to think it wasn’t necessary as she is good now. There is still a gap in understanding that POA is not for now, it is insurance, just in case.
I had a very productive and busy day on many files, down to one big one now and a few personal taxes to file including my own. I am still waiting for info for the others. Natalia, the lovely woman from the Ukraine who did some training with me in the Fall showed up around 4:30 with her daughter Maria. They had wonderful things for my birthday. I can’t even believe how thoughtful they were. Teenaged Maria painted the sunflower picture! And oh boy did I enjoy a piece of that cake after dinner. I was so happy for them to hear that they are going home for a vacation to see her husband. Maria very much misses her dad and it will be hard for them to leave again.
Dinner was healthy (ish) and tasty and the wind has calmed down
There was a letter sticking out of the mailbox when I got home. Seems someone wants to buy my place. I asked my neighbour who is in an old trailer and she said she didn’t get one. I am not interested in selling but it is a bold method. I also suspect he may not know how much it was appraised for…. That’s a lot of cash.
