Social distancing deck visit with three beautiful great-grandbabies.

96

A strong, healthy new great-grandson.

95

Being able to get a haircut at last.

94

Wanting to take a walk--and see this new bench at the Tack Shop, but not sure I could walk that far.

Sudden thought to leave my car parked at the library when I went to pick up my holds, and walk to the Tack Shop from there.

Good thing I heeded that prompt. It was over 6500 steps.

93

Feeling grateful for this grandson who did an awesome job of cleaning up my balcony, and wouldn't even let me pay him for it.

Appropriately, the logo on his T-shirt says, "Day of Service."

We're not supposed to recycle plastic bags, so I turn mine upside down and shake the contents into the recycle bin. This is quite a feat, because I am short, and the top of the bin is a little higher than my shoulders.

Today, as I struggled to shake everything out, I heard/felt a faint jingle.

I'm grateful beyond words for the very timely warning that my keys were tangled in the bag and about to wind up in the dumpster with the rest of the trash. I'm even more grateful that I took heed, despite my big rush to be done and move on.

91

The gift of a new mitral valve.

Today marks two years since my open heart surgery.
