MMHCI Some stressors are less stressful.

Over the weekend we found an alternative apartment for Caroline if she does not get on campus housing. It is a lovely apartment. The owner is an amazing person with one heck of a career that continues. The doggies are all rescues and very loving. In other words, we found her a safe and beautiful space that would work well for her.

I got the watercooler replaced and functioning. The old one finally gave up the ghost. What I am loving is that the bottle in the bottom rather than on the top.

Peter’s big surprise for me is a new dishwasher after our old one just fell apart. I have a lovely/horrifying bruise on my foot where the door slammed on it.

Today we are getting back into costuming as I have Caroline here until the end of the week and then she is off to Florida for beach week with my parents. I need her body to fit clothing and some accessories. I can do the finishing when she is out of the house.

Mentally I am doing OK. Not perfect but I don’t strive for perfection rather feeling even and secure in myself.

Another thing I did this weekend was visit some friends I haven’t seen since before covid. It was a pleasant afternoon of food and friendship and hugs. It did a lot for my mental health.

Now I want to make time to see more friends and reconnect.

I am now going to start the list and check it twice to see what I can get done.

I am grateful for pleasant time with friends.
