Hit the Ground Running

Geoff left for work this morning at 7am. I heard the front door close and uttered "crap." I wanted to sit with him and have him write a letter of resignation to give his notice. On paper. Nicely. But he was gone. Not sure if he's going to tell his boss today or not, but if he didn't we'll take care of this tonight. 

Today is his long day, so he was lights off, in bed, 9pm Monday night. I didn't want to disturb him then so I let it ride. Should have caught him last night. 

Because I was awake and having internal brain conversations at 7am, I realized I had to pee. I somehow made it through the night without waking up. Good for me. 

Coffee, Toffee, and a phone game for a few minutes, I was working before 8am. It's kind of fun to be doing things before anyone else is online. We had a code push this morning, so I was keenly aware that things could go pear shaped and I wanted to be on task. 

Everything went well, and at 11:30 I ran to Target for some more storage containers, tuna fish, and dishwasher pods, and other things. No one was there, which was so nice. I had a good time shopping, and got all the things I needed to get on this trip. 

Lots of afternoon meetings, and a very late request for some help that required a zoom meeting, and success as a result. 

I packed a few boxes, we ate supper, and Doug was going to take Toffee out but we started watching the Thursday Murder Club on Netflix and it was delightful. I waited until it was done to go out for my walk. 

The night was delightfully perfect, and I was just going to do the 10 minute Pokemon stroll but pushed it to 21 minutes. I thought about grabbing Toffee and going for another walk with her but. Maybe tomorrow she'll get her walk. She's snoring and happy. No need to mess with that. 

Closing is scheduled, and we're just waiting for a piece of documentation from Doug's student loans to make the requirements of the mortgage company happy. Cross your fingers.

Laboring on Labor Day

After yesterday's day off for errands, today we were back at it.  

But first, coffee. And phone games. And cuddles with Toffee. 

Doug was back downstairs cranking tunes while I worked on our bedroom. It was fun going through brochures and things from our trips. Not everything makes the move, a lot of things got thrown out. There were stacks of things on my bureau, all very disorganized. It felt good to just go through things and pick and choose, and box. 

Linda and I got to chat for a while too, and we got totally caught up after not having check in time for a few days. 

Doug took a nap, I pondered doing the same but instead I took a solo walk, I wanted to be quiet for him, and he had the dog so it was an easy escape out the front door. 

Back by 4:30, they were still sleeping. I sat on the couch and played with my phone for a bit. Doug woke up, and went to the market for milk and a couple things to go with dinner. Geoff grilled burgers, I packed more boxes. 

All told, a good day. I feel like I could have done more but got some good things done. 

Tomorrow is a Monday on a Tuesday but I do not have a single meeting until 1pm, so I may run to target for some more things, or see if I can get some good liquor boxes (and some more wine!) I do need to get some blood work done this week, so I have to go over to that neighborhood anyway. 

We'll see what I feel motivated to do, and what work has in store for me. Our weather looks spectacular every day this week, the 10 day forecast only goes to the 15th. Hoping for plain sailing weather on the Tuesday...

No pic today. Too busy to document anything. Digits below.
