Wow.  8:00.    Got up, exercised, dressed, breakfasted and headed out to the Walk In Clinic for a relatively new skin irritation.  They prescribed some ointment for my embarrassing location.

Got home, sorted and shredded.  I've got a lot of old paperwork I don't need that's taking up space.  

10:40 - off to the Senior Center for my first ever line dancing class.  It was harder than I thought.  I've got steps and terms to study and learn  It was a good workout both physically and mentally.  Learning new ways of moving exercises the mind and body.  

11:45 - Lunch at the Senior Center!  Meatball parm sub.  Yum.  

After lunch, off to the hardware store for sink caulking.  I had other things on my list but I think I'll need to go to an electronics or craft store for those itty-bitty needle nosed pliers.  

Then it was off to the drug store!  It was on the way home from the hardware store.  I got my ointment, a COVID booster and a pneumonia vaccine.  

Right now at 13:45, I'm chilling for the first time today with a cup of half-caf   I've got more shredding and sorting and collecting the garbage.  I still need to do something musical today: practice an instrument, compose or study a particular piece of music. 

The keyboard on my bench... I'll deal with tomorrow.  There's a very fiddly connector that I just can't get to back in correctly.  If I can't put in back in the keys won't work.  The original manufacturer used a penny pinching way of connecting two circuit boards that requires a good eye and a steady hand to insert - of which I have neither.  It only cost me 30 dollars but it's eaten into my time.  I'll be disappointed  if I can't reassemble it correctly.   I part of my personality has been that I can fix things and the inability to do so hurts a bit.  But I have physical limitations and really fine work - never my strongest suit - has become more and more limited as I've gotten older.  

I'm adjusting.
