Going to get ready for bed, which for me means starting a routine that cannot be interrupted.
I love my bedtime routine. Now I want to go back to bed and it's only 8am here  :laugh:

Today I have an appointment in the morning and groceries in the evening.

I only very rarely want to go to bed.

If I could go to bed at 6pm and read for 4 hours before going to sleep, that would be heaven to me

^Sounds like you're a voracious reader.

Today I'm taking Kayleigh to the doctor, then I'll be stopping off at the chemist for meds. We usually have lunch out but neither of us can afford it this week.

I am. It's the one thing that eases my stress so quickly. But I've been reading before bed for so many years that I can't read at other times of the day or else I will fall asleep  :lol1:

Heh, reminds me of when I was in school and the library's mascot was a frog because RIBIT (Reading In Bed Is Terrific). I liked it because I've always been into reading. Uni killed the urge for a while but I'm slowly getting back into it. :)

Take Kayleigh to her psych appointment. Debating whether or not to sit in the car at 2 in the afternoon or go inside the doctors office. I usually wait in the car because inside is a GP's waiting area for all manner of sick patients. I don't like the vibe.

Anyway, afterwards we're going to Aldi to pick up some onions and ice, stuff we forgot in the shopping yesterday.

Then I'm going to the beach with my friend.

I donated about two hundred and eighty books from my "coulda, shoulda, woulda wish I hadda"  library. 

I had kept them from the time my kids were four and two and the older was too old to sleep in the same room with the younger. I had my music room and library well started, but life is life.

I held on to them thinking that maybe, some day ...

It was a tough task to get through. I figure I have been "miser" long enough though and the local public library can do more with these treasures than I can do watching dust collect on the boxes I stored them in.
I feel good and bad.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

I am a massive book reader and just recently culled my collection and donated them. Very bittersweet indeed. But I'm at the point where I want to live with less stuff and I drastically downsized in 2017.

Today I need to get the oldest to and from work and then work myself.

Yeah, I did a major downsize of my volcano book collection for the same reason.  And the books I read now, get donated to a local thrift store.  I'm really liking living with less stuff.   8)

Grocery shopping.
