Life Goes On

I turned the heat on in the house this morning. It was 67 in the house. Too cool for me. Heard a robin in the neighborhood. He needs to keep on moving because it's getting too cold for the songbirds.

I spent much of today getting the grandchildren's clothing together for transport to Muncie. Was sorting by gender and season. A much bigger job than I imagined! Hope I can find enough boxes/tubs to send it all. I will keep a couple of days' worth here, in hopes that the children will be allowed to visit again.

Robin's Brownie leader brought Robin's school supplies from her desk, along with a note from Robbie's teacher indicating her sadness that they didn't have a chance to say good-bye. I found the stuff in the door when I got home from rehab yesterday. It breaks my heart.

I am to see the children for 24 hours this weekend, Saturday morning to Sunday morning. We will do Quaker Day celebrations. My only intent is for the children to enjoy the festivities and play with the neighbor boy whom they love. Apparently their mother will join the parade part of the day. I am doing the best I can.

I survive.
