My time away was good;
it is as it always is; my family is routine oriented;
we spent a lot of time together; my Mother is the youngest
of a family of 8 children
so lots of remembering.
Asked my Oma about what her advice about marriage was
(figured I better ask while I can since by the time I may or may not
get married, she will be, I pray, in heaven, since she is
101 years old currently).
She said to be nice to him and he will be nice to you
and to know when to speak and when to not speak.
Lots of truth in these simple things.
Years ago my Mom's family lived in the house pictured above;
painted then with the wood in yellow and green
and a porch the whole side of the house...
My Uncle took my Dad and I to a cool restaurant
with tons of Victorian decorations.
I love the unexpected restaurants way out in the countryside.
A large part of me still belongs to the countryside
of both Ontario and Michigan...
She had two people visit her -- my one friend even texted me pictures of her!
and Cleo always had plenty of food and water.

I am wondering what time it is for me.
Reprogramming for sure.
Rethinking
redoing
re-something else I'm sure.
Changing my eating habits
figuring out what I need for exercise (and how to have the time?)
***
I am trying to not be on my computer as much;
I know I need to reorganize my life and time.
**
Moved a shelf unit into my closet,
purging myself of more stuff
being patient with the process.
*
It can be hard to wait
but the process has to be gone through before I will be
where I will be next
(school, job, other yet unknown).
***
May God have mercy on us all.
