I am so glad that we canceled the assist meeting today, they canceled primarily because the meeting would be coming off the national holiday which means it would really put a lot of stress on the folks to get ready for the meeting so no meeting today and that is a major blessing because of the weather. Low pressure system came in last night drop the temperature down about 10 points and provided a lot of rain and snow even down on the valley floor. Not a lot of snow but it laid down a little bit and it would have been cold had I been out trying to get back and forth to my meeting so instead I enjoyed myself in the apartment, in the kitchen prepping and cooking my brains out. I cooked the roast I purchased on Saturday and it was a lot of fun actually as far as the prepping went it was hard. I can see it's getting harder for me to do stuff that kind of freaks me out but such is life. I'm just having a more difficult time peeling potatoes and even carrots than I used to. My first knee-jerk reaction would be it's the wheelchair it's making me difficult to sit up and let allowing me to peel these vegetables as I used to do without nearly the problem that I had today. I got the vegetables peeled however and chopped pretty much. I was able to use the carrots that I purchased yesterday are Friday Saturday I mean. I peeled them toss them in the vet then did the same with the taters. The taters are a little hammered but they tasted pretty good in the end. I ran a couple hours on the low temperature then I ran a couple hours on the high temperature which I finally got the roast finished. I had pieces of roast and vegetables for dinner it was a nice dinner and I felt accomplished having dealt and done something. I don't know how much I enjoy eating the production as much as actually doing the production. And I guess it would be nice to have somebody around here to do cook for but I'm happy with what I've got and I'm happy I'm able to cook these items. I am also spending a lot of time on the kitchen too trying to clean up after myself and do some washing of dishes and cutting boards and things of that nature which I've sort of let get out of control last couple weeks. I don't know if it's time to call Gloria to see if she's up for any cleaning but I may be getting close. I haven't heard anything from Gloria in a long time which kind of worries me I hope she's doing okay and I hope she's not in trouble.
Diane has been in the boot for the last couple days spending the last days with her mother. It seems like the whole family came together which is good. I got a couple of emails from DD this morning indicating that Mom seemed to be getting weaker and weaker and then this afternoon I got words mom passed. DD's mom was a good person who I liked writing to once a month. She was always good to me and I'm glad to see that she's left she was in rough condition there towards the land I wish that she rests in peace …
