A doodle in color: Mission San Juan Capistrano, inner courtyard.

• Life moves on even if I worry about it. The doctor’s office has not returned my calls. I’ll know in more when I go in with G tomorrow when he gets shots.
• He’s been working hard on his three boxes. He thinks they may be done today…..it’s a very exciting thing. If so, he suggested that we go up by train ourselves and deliver them.
• Then there are dreams: I have hopes that our tax returns will allow us to go to Disneyland:

• Explore specially priced tickets for SoCal Residents: 3-Day, 1-Park Per Day Ticket: $179

• These tickets were $50.00 yesterday. $60.00 Today. Sense of humor required.
• Laundry: Did I mention laundry? I did a lot of loads on Monday. Two days ago I did the pillows…and ran all the decorative pillows through the dryer. Yes, I am coughing less but still coughing. Today I find myself with another giant Load which includes the sheets. The laundry requires all sorts of attributes that don’t come naturally to me. Perseverance, acceptance, and that sense of humor once again.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

  • Himself: George has that sense of humor.

  • Myself: Changing my eating patterns does work. At least this week. Today: arrots for breakfast instead of my usual chocolate muffin with extra butter. Yesterday: small veggie omelette and cottage cheese which I was allergic to. LOL Down 8 pounds. Got the living room renewed but it looks naked.

  • Drawing: Watercolor, colored pencil, and ink.

  • Reading: Still Anna Pidgeon.

  • Gratitude’s: Getting used to being by myself again has been interesting. We need to do this more often.

You consider that lovely picture a "doodle" ?! There's no hope for me, then.

I've been to Capistrano but not Disneyland.

Getting used to being by myself again - can you explain this bit? I wasn't quite picking up what you meant?

Every night he is either off at the wood shop or at a meeting. I'll live. :)

If you go to Disney Land, wave to my sister. She lives in the neighborhood.:)

Love your doodle and it's framing-perfection. I bet it lights up a wall. Sending positive thoughts for your doctor visit.
