Friday is our usual shopping day, and we will also be watching Oliver for a bit in the evening. In between, there are all the usual fun activities like putting groceries away, doing laundry, and squeezing in my eighty minutes of daily activity.
Yesterday I had an EKG because my doctor was concerned about a heart murmur. Her message afterward was short and sweet: “Echo shows your heart is pumping effectively. Have a great day Beth!” I gladly accepted that good news and moved on.
Also yesterday, our solar system officially went live. We had a sunny day and immediately started racking up some solar energy. Today was more overcast, and we still produced a little, which feels like a small win.
Today we had both kitchen sink faucets replaced and a new garbage disposal installed. The plumber was here for about two hours. When Joe asked how to drain the water heater, the plumber showed him and went ahead and drained it while he was here, at no charge. During Joe’s vacation, he replaced the garbage disposal in the other kitchen himself. Let’s just say it took him longer than the trained plumber. Joe is much less expensive, though.
Today also came with a milestone. Oliver, our youngest grandson, turned one year old. We will be celebrating his birthday on Saturday. And on Monday, our granddaughter Charlotte turns ten. She is celebrating tomorrow night with two friends spending the night, starting the evening with manicures and pedicures at a salon. That feels very ten years old.
By the time Sunday rolls around, I am planning a full day of rest. No projects. No lists. Just a pause. Tonight’s Interlude is my way of easing into that slower pace.
