The weather forecast here on my phone keeps saying it’s cooling. The phone will say it’s 72°. My car says it’s 78°. It says the high will be 82 for the day, I got in my car at 6:30 it was 87°. It seems like, per everyone, it is supposed to be cooling down, and, ok it is. It was close to 100 all of September and well into October. But how can they call it cooling down, in the 80’s?

I’m not complaining, mind you. I love wearing shorts, short skirts, cami’s, t-shirts in November. Just cracks me up, how 5° is perceived as cooling off.

I stopped taking the med I have been taking for arthritis when I got the stomach bug. But I started it up again tonight because my ankles and feet are killing me. It’s difficult to walk. I will meet next week with my new PCP. I’m hoping he can help me out with all this.

Tonight I went to the towns First Friday Artwalk. It was a lovely night, there were lots of great vendors, and lots of music at different restaurants. A lot of the restaurants have no walls, or half walls, and are just open. Just lends itself to that laid-back atmosphere. I found out that all the work has to be judged prior to being allowed into this show, so that’s why the artists/crafters are so good. I met a woman who runs a gallery. Her husband paints, and she does mosaics. She has been awarded, and showed us some of the work she’s been commissioned to do, by corporations. Really really talented. She also teaches classes in doing mosaics, and I’ve always been interested. I may take her classes when I get settled.

I also met a couple of published authors from town, so I will check their work out on Amazon. Something I might be interested in doing, self-publishing at some point. I keep meeting poets and authors who have done it, successfully.

Tomorrow I’m going thrift store shopping in my sister’s neighborhood, and then spending the night there. That will be so nice. We figured if we shopped for 3 or 4 hours, we’d be ready to go back to her house and get into the pool and the hot tub, have a nice dinner, watch a movie. I’ll have to leave fairly early Sunday because my friend is coming into town from Daytona Beach. Should be a fun day.

So life is good. Really looking forward to spending the day with my sister and brother-in-law tomorrow. Love and light, all.
