Rainy day, dream away....

We're finally getting some rain!

Nothing much to report, for a change.

We never got to the thrift shopping last weekend, because going to a movie always takes up so much time.  By the time we were out and about, the stores were all closing.

We went yesterday, though, and had some good luck.  Dave even found a frame for our Chicago Tribune front page from when the Cubs won the world series.

It's now hanging in the dining room!

It's been raining off and on this weekend, including when we were in the hot tub last night.  THAT was lovely.  The rain was cold on our faces.

The only draw back was that our towels were somewhat wet when it was time to come inside. HA!

So far, it seems that the lower dose of my chemo pill might be helping. My digestive issues have improved a bit over what happened last month (and at the beginning of the cycles in previous months).

I've only been taking it since Thursday, though, so time will tell.

Today should be relaxing.  We have the new Grateful Dead movie to stream, plus our netflix disc to watch.

Dave will go take care of his dad's groceries and check in on him, while I do some cooking projects.

It's so nice to have NORMAL down time after all of the stress, and to have it be a rainy day is even better, because then, I won't feel compelled to work outside!

A little bit of laziness is a good thing.

I might get to a little hand sewing while we sit in front of the tv.  I have a blouse with a hole in it, and Dave needs a button sewn on a shirt.  One of the dresses I bought yesterday lost a belt tie in the wash, and I am going to see if I can just sew it back on.

If not, I may just take the other one off.

Dave has to go to Tulsa this week, and I am going to worry less about it, now that he is feeling so much better.

As my brother says when we talk on the phone, "That's all I've got!"
