Appreciate Each Day
Wellness challenge for today is to unsubscribe from unnec emails. Already done. To me, electronic clutter is just as bad as actual clutter. I keep off many mailing lists as much as possible, physical mailing (no catalogs, no magazines). I always unsubscribe email lists. When they ask at the store, my friend gave me a good idea for a response. I just politely say "decline" when they ask for email or phone number.
The phone trolling is just out of control. DH and I are getting 2-6 calls a day from unknown phones. We don't answer. I am convinced they more you answer, the more you get.
I have done some cooking making and baking. 2 fails. One new recipe and one old. I will just freeze and eat this winter when I am desperate for baked coods and too lazy. My DH said I must be distracted. I am pretty preoccupied with my online sales. I am thinking this is not a fit for me. This first year of retirement may be a big exercise in just what is right for me - and I will gladly take that.
Yesterday DH and I took the pup and went to a state park the next state over, we could not believe how cool this area was. We were the only ones there for quite a while, making Tuesdays a natural exploration day going forward. There was a large waterfall and the trails all around it where made to explore it at all different heights. It was quite a find! Then I dropped my phone and cracked the screen. God's way of telling me to stop taking photos and just be in the moment. That was what our instructor was telling us in yoga class Monday night. Message received. Could explain my "baking" fails too.
Another way this message is being driven home for me...another of our childhood friends has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. I need to enjoy each day to the fullest.
Getting ready to cook some pork chops for DH before he leaves to drive to the city to play golf with his brother and take our SUV that we are selling. Wish me luck! I am having kitchen challenges!

Lists
Last night was last night in our city house. This is list we are moving to hotel for 3 months we will be there. We moved half last night, other have after work today. I will finish up tonight by final cleaning of the bathroom counters, kitchen counters and floors after we are out. I also have list of optional stuff, we will keep in suburban to be accessed if we need it. We will take the last list of stuff on home to RH in 2 weeks, next time we drive down. We are staying in town next 2 weekends to 1) get a break from the driving, 2) spend some time with friends and 3) to be able to work as many hours as I can, because my work is closed tues at noon and the 4th, next week. So, I will work all day Friday and relax in city that weekend after as well.

It's the Final Countdown
Friday after work, we got with buyer again to pick closing. She wanted sooner to lock in her mortgage rate. So june 27! Initialed contract. Now I take to closing company.
Sat we installed new garage number pas and ordered new fridge filter. I got up, walked then finished painting deck. Then we packed up the garage and bunch of stuff on storage room. Now we are going out to hear relative's band. We are tired!
Oh, we also locked in our room at extended stay hotel. I am glad we did because they have foreign exchange college students come in for summer. They work at area's amusement park. We also saw size of room and what we will need.. at least it will have reg size fridge. Made list of stuff I do to finalize sale, move, give away and take to ext stay hotel.
