64 degrees going up to 84 today, warming up a bit in advance of a rain front coming in from the West. Much of what is soaking the folks below PA has missed us here; it's been dry.
important day today, the big three hour inspection of the home prior to acceptance. I have made this house as nice as I can, and I am so, so sick of polishing the kitchen sink and faucets, vacuuming every day, etc, etc, all the stuff one goes through. But after today, I can make a big mess because the packers are coming in this weekend to start.
while I'm evicted from home, I'm going over to spend some time with my elderly MIL. My late wife was her caretaker and best friend, so I have been hoping she would move out of her big house in the country and into a retirement/senior living spot, of which there are many locally. Not yet... So I cooked up some steaks last night, tupperwared most of it when I was done, and will take that over to her. She will nibble on those steaks for weeks...loves barbecued anything, can't do that for herself anymore. She has a son in the area, but he is pretty clueless as to what his mother needs other than her lawn mowed. It will take a medical event to get her out of that house I suppose. But if that's where she's happy, fine.
not thrilled with my medical testing. Two thyroid lumps found, likely nothing, my PSA is rising, and if my chest xray yesterday finds anything, well...
getting older is such a thrill...
actually it is.
