October in like a lion - brrrrr

Geez it was cold today.  I dragged my butt out of bed at 6:45 this morning to go to to meet with Maureen and her daughter in law, Jamie, for an auction - house contents from a lovely home on Youngs Point Road on the water.  Some beautiful pieces of pine furniture and of course all the other stuff - china - trinkets - pictures etc.  It was interesting to see what people buy and really that is the reason I went - I enjoy the 'feel' of the auction and checking out the stuff etc.   There were a couple of things I liked - a single chair and a stool.  But I figured it would go for more than the $25 I had allocated.

It was cold though - we watched for a while, but decided to leave around lunch time because they hadn't got to the 'good stuff' yet.  We had lunch at a cute place - Uncle George's in Woodview - great home-cooked food.  Once the sun came out it was a beautiful day and it was enjoyable being out in the country and just being 'out and about'.  

So feeling like the cobwebs have been brushed out of my head and getting some good fresh air felt really good.  Came home around 5:00.  And that was the day pretty much.

Tomorrow will be a relaxing day and then next week will be a slew of appointments and preparation for another surgery and being out of commission for a few days.   

The situation never leaves me completely - I was saying to George today I wish I could just leave my body and sit myself down on the couch next to me and then toss aside the existing body!  Science hasn't come that far yet though, has it??  Funny what thoughts come to mind.

Well - run for the cure tomorrow - it is going to be chilly - so wrap up.  Good luck everyone - pace yourselves - sing songs - whatever it takes.
