Sun!

The sunshine really helps my productivity. It was so nice to see the sun today!

This is going to sound stupid, but I bought 10 pounds of potatoes for the anticipated Christmas Eve dinner, then changed the menu. I had a huge bag of potatoes here that had no chance of being used. On my errands this afternoon, I decided to take the bag to church. They cook for the Indy homeless on Wednesdays. Hope they can be used!

Got some prescriptions renewed today. The pharmacy computer said I wasn't due yet, but I told the dude that I fill out a week-long medication filler, and was going to be gone for a few days. Guess that worked.

Will leave for Illinois tomorrow, with snow coming this way. Damn the torpedoes; full speed ahead!

Guess Megan and Denis are in receipt of the keys to their new apartment today. They are now three hours behind Indiana, so I have trouble figuring out their schedule. Megan showed up on Skype this early afternoon but made no attempt to contact me, so I gave up and moved on. They have, basically, nothing. They will need to buy a bed and a table, at first, just to get by...and food staples. Staples alone usually cost $200...eggs, butter, bread, milk, salt, pepper, baking soda, blah, blah. Been there, done that. I wish them well. They also need dishes, pots and pans, towels, etc. Meg is basically re-creating her life, leaving everything behind. My heart breaks over some of that.

Moving on. Getting ready for the IL trip!
