May 2018

in Places, etc.
Trying to keep up with my house, get laundry done, load the dishwasher, get basic groceries, take my prescribed pills morning and night, shower, but not as frequently as in the past, pay bills as they come in so that I don't forget them, read the daily paper, read local obituaries online, tend to some needs of disabled daughter, and brush my teeth at least 2xday.

And I've mailed my absentee ballot for Ohio's primary on May 8.

Always hoping for the best of outcomes.
