I got out and about this morning, going to the school book fair, with my new Driver. It was great to leave the house and spend some time at school--Sis and Bud were so thrilled to see me. And not just because I had the money! They each chose a few books--Star Wars, bunnies, and some Harry Potter stickers--but mostly enjoyed shopping with all of their little friends. I bought a few books, too--on September 11, Diary of a Spider, some Jack Prelutsky poetry, and a healthy kids' cookbook. I chatted with friends--half my old playgroup was there! And three of them were working very hard to pull of the event (thanks Mommy Goose, Miss L, and Miss K)--and with teachers, past and present. It was an all-around great morning.
I am so grateful for Driver, who also helped me purchase a basket of flowers for my neighbor whose mother died (Neighbor Boy's grandmother) and went with me for coffee (mmmm, it's pumpkin spice latte season!). Having her help really brightens my day. She's taking me to a doctor's appointment on Friday and on Tuesday (just follow-ups to all those appointments with my ENT and dermatologist from the summer).
Just like today, this school year is already looking much better (for me) than last.
