I totally forgot about my weekly post this weekend. I have to say that my brain has become a quagmire lately and I'm lucky if the right things bubble up at the right time for me to function. It didn't help that the news exploded on Saturday. Here is what happened last week:
- Last Monday a roofer stopped by to evaluate the hail damage. Despite having hail resistant shingles, our roof had significant damage. I filed a claim with our homeowner's insurance and an insurance adjuster will be here this week to inspect the damage.
- Thursday was our twenty-seventh wedding anniversary. We celebrated by visiting an elder care attorney, setting up durable power of attorney for my Mom, and eating delicious burgers at Stella's Bar and Grill. The elder care attorney is putting together options for how we can fund the services Mom needs to be happy and safe. The follow up of this meeting is scheduled for next Monday.
One benefit of all this is, when Mom's situation is all settled, we will know what we need to do to prepare for our future care. - I walked three times this week for a total of 19 miles (30.6 km). I was going to walk today (Monday) but it felt like 88℉ (31℃) at the time I normally would have started and it was just heading up from there. The humidity is a bit stifling to say the least. Fortunately temperatures are supposed to moderate after today.
- We caught up to the current episode of "Alone". We are still catching up with "Alone: Australia" and discovered today that there is an "Alone: UK". We should be totally caught up this week.
- At the end of this week the Wife and I are going to Minneapolis to celebrate birthdays. I think I need the break from reality. Next week's Ephemera post will likely be late as well.
