Living in town definitely has advantages I hadn’t thought of before. Mainly, I’m now much closer to everything - shopping, bill paying, work. Only the sleeping arrangements aren’t as comfortable as I’d like while I stay with friends. I opted to take the couch so no one was put out of their own beds. That’s the right thing to do, I think.

When we do get into our own house, I really need to be shopping for some things such as a new mattress set and a sleep wedge, so I can rest my back better and maybe not wake up so stiff and sore.

Sometimes it’s hard for me to get going in the mornings, so I don’t even think about cooking until well up into the day when the soreness has worn off. This means no breakfast gets cooked. It also means trying to make up for that by serving more hearty lunch or dinner meals. When we finally get settled, I can work harder again to make weekly menus and shop more carefully.
