All settled into 'home' for a month.

Tonight’s picture is Elena ‘feeling’ her way through a book. She is something else. She doesn’t do anything a little bit; she does it with intensity. She doesn’t just look at a book, she looks, studies it and feels of all the pages. She’s an interesting little person! See that push toy under the window? She works that thing like a professional. I never saw a child get more use out of her toys!

We got moved into our home for the next month. It feels good! I’ve got a load of clothes washing already. That always makes me feel at home! We’re all unpacked and put together except I’m washing our sheets and will put them on the bed. Of course they have sheets on the bed but we always use our own because theirs are washed in some detergent and Don is allergic to detergent. We use laundry discs. Besides, I have T-shirt sheets for winter and we love those, so they’re in the wash. Once the bed is made we’ll be set.

Well, I’ll make something for supper. Then THE BUCKET LIST is on TV tonight! Everyone but us has seen it, I think. It’s on at 11, so we might not see it all tonight. It’s on again Wednesday morning at 7:30, so we can watch the rest of it then if we can’t stay awake for it all tonight. Everyone tells me we should see it, so I’m looking forward to it.

I haven’t done any of my exercises today, so I’ve got to get them done. We did some shopping and went out to eat lunch while we waited to check into our unit. That walking is going to have to pass for my walking today and I’ll make up for it later this week. It’s supposed to be warm for a few days.

Bill and Olya, our neighbors from home are coming later this week for just a couple of days. We’re so excited that they can come. They have Sonia and Sasha, who will give us a grandkid fix. Bill is also our preacher; he’s also the ‘marine’ who noticed we had a burglar and called the cops when we were gone to Vegas. They are the best neighbors ever, so we’re really excited that they are coming. We sure thank God for them in our lives and to have them join us here is a special treat.
