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.
