Site of my first full time job around 1980 IIRC. "Consumers Distributing"

It has been a relaxing weekend. Jen's been in Minnesota. I had anticipated spending most of the weekend at Panorama, filling recycling bins with garbage, giving away the books, and more. I used the time instead to enjoy a slower-paced weekend than most. I'm not going to deep dive into details tonight. I just want to capture highlights, including going to my mom's Sat and Sunday with Lauren while she and Lindsey were doing their annual cookie production. I've done so well eliminating sugar, but I did try a few scraps and such. Man, they were terrific. We brought home bags of the end pieces for the kids and Jen. I went to SRC both days, Saturday alone and Sunday with Lauren. I am honestly struggling with all of the emotions involved in all of this, it can get overwhelming, and this weekend was one of those times. Simply because the 'life' she's living now is no life at all, and yet she's having to go day-by-day through what is her worst nightmare, and all we can do is try to be compassionate. Today we took her Aqui, which was pleasant, and she was status quo too. I finished BIG training Sat AM and then Sat PM I attended a holiday gathering at Mary/Wendy's. I ended up getting into a deep conversation with Bill and Nancy, and they're going to be my 'recorded session' for submission for licensing, which I will be doing. Where it goes from there is TBD. I offered Lindsey the use of Panorama for her 'own space' needs, and she will consider it. I spent the day listening to "Solid State," an audiobook about the Abbey Road recording sessions, which watching "Get Back" made me want to do. I spent my youth so deeply immersed in their music, and it's been years since I revisited in detail, so this has been enjoyable and brought something 'light' into my routine.
