Today was very much a this and that day. I got laundry done, so glad to have a clothesline rigged up in the backyard so I can hang my clothes out to dry. Had a wander in a neighborhood near my old high school and found the most adorable little free library with a very welcoming sitting area. Talk about creating a wonderful community feeling, this was a real inspiration!
I went with mom to her bank to deposit some old savings bonds and travelers checks that she had sitting around, literally for decades! I was amazed at how much interest had accrued, so it gave her a good amount to stick in her savings for a rainy day. It’s been so wonderful to help her with these little odd jobs, well to me they seem like little jobs, but to her it makes a huge difference.
I had to pop over to Sausalito to print out some documents for her, and took a little detour to enjoy the colorful houseboats. I don’t think I would want to live in one permanently, but would definitely enjoy boat sitting for somebody!
Ended the night watching Jeopardy with Mom before heading to bed to read. Not the most exciting day, but it felt really good to be able to help my mom out.
