Things aren't really better. The news continues to be bad but we're all in good spirits. We started planning the Fire Department Banquet last night. Things should go as smoothly as it did last year. I've started collecting things to make soap. It'll be a process but maybe it'll make me slow down a little. Bracelets are coming along great. I got new beads yesterday when I went to Michaels. I got shirts too so I need to get some of them made up. The specialty shirts came in and I can't wait to get them done I just need to get there. The tumblers are picking up again with football and halloween. Speaking of football this is the last week of preseason and I'm super excited. This means the actual season is going to start. We've been talking football up at the rehab center with dad and he's looking forward to the season. Hopefully he comes home soon because he's really missing it lol. The channels at rehab kind of suck and he got so used to streaming. I've been doing computer work. probably not as much as I should be but I am doing it lol. It helps when I buy so much at Amazon lol. The Frozen puzzle is finally glued and now I can start on the Star Wars one the we picked out. This one is a thousand pieces and it'll probably drive me nuts because there's a lot of single colors. Everyone is in good spirits and we're all working. VA is already approving things for the house so we're going to become handicap accessible shortly. We're hoping that they'll do the porch and maybe we can get them to do the back porch too. We have the boards, they just need to be put in. We're taking down the steps and the ramp in the back. I'm staying occupied because if I don't I may loose my mind. I still haven't really talked to anyone and my sister is a little worried about me but I'll make it. Tomorrow will determine a lot because it's the heart dr and what we can do depends on how strong his heart is now. Anyway what is everyone else up to today? What is one thing that made you smile today?
