Good morning girls! Boy, I am in a really foul mood this morning. I have been tired all weekend and wanted to sleep in this morning and the dog wouldn't settle down so I got up, did my upstairs chores and brought the trash down and the dirty clothes. I found I hadn't folded the ones in the dryer and had some in the washer and then a whole load to put in UGH! So I got that all done, changed puppy pads and picked up doggie poo on them, went into the kitchen and of course Jack made breakfast but then put everything in the sink because unloading the dishwasher was too much trouble, even though we have tiny ants I can't find where they are coming from and have been spraying around the sink side of the room and have told him repeatedly to clean up every mess WELL! SIGH! So, I unloaded and reloaded and cleaned everything up well, then saw that *&*^#**@()_# didn't take the letter to the mail when he took the Netlix envelope even though it was sitting underneath it (it was a legal size with a stamp on so how could he miss that?) I haven't been shopping yet as T's graduation is Wed and so I will go then so my meat in the freezer is limited to stuff that takes longer to cook and I am not in the mood today, but guess I will fix chicken fried steak. I am just going to wait until he gets home and he can peel potatoes! I usually use these frozen mashed ones all the time and we like them, but I haven't been able to find them in any stores!
Friday night we picked up the car (it is good to have it running properly again and the check engine light out!) went to Bob Evans for dinner then I took Jack home and went and got my haircut, went to Walgreens and picked up color (the whole back of my head was gray after my haircut as was all but about 1/4 inch of hair) and then went and got my nails done. Came home and colored my hair and picked up the house etc.
We went to Star Wars on Saturday after my eye dr appt. The only good thing about that was after my insurance it was $54 for the year and I had a $50 rebate (the envelope dummy was supposed to take!) The dr said I had good healthy eyes and I discussed family diabetes concerns (though I have never had high sugar thank God), glaucoma, cataracts etc with him for a few moments. He is such a nice guy, probably late 30's and really quiet. He took as much time as I needed and answered my questions. We then had to take the rental car back and I had it so I called Jack when I left the eye dr and told him I was on my way (I am only about 5 minutes from the airport where our eye dr is) but anyway, saw a Payless and zoomed in there to find a pair of black sandals for vacation and spent about 15 minutes, OOPS! I called Jack from the car and he was already there so I lied and said I missed the exit and had to come back. He believed that as it is tricky coming from the south to get onto the correct street and then we went downtown for the day. (ok, so as I proofread this, I see we are probably even now, he didn't take the envelope and I made him sit and wait on me Sat!
)The movie was better than I expected and then we headed over to Abuelos and had a quick dinner. We were both so tired we neither one enjoyed it. We went out to Walmart's yesterday morning but then stayed in the rest of the day. It was pretty boring but there was nothing really to do.
I have started my weekly cleaning upstairs and will go up and finish in a little while after I am not so mad! lol
Gloria: I know you will miss your friend, but it is hard to miss someone who is already gone. The disease robs your of your friendships and your families and it sure would be nice if they could find a cure!
Jean: I am late on the bandwagon, but
CONGRATS GRANDMA! I just hope they don't call her Z-OW (as in ouch) I-E. I am afraid that is what she is in for! I love the name Zoe though and Kathryn has such class I think.
Maggie: I feel like singing "On the Road Again" I know you have to really be excited! I would be in your place. I am counting the days until vacation.
Well, the cleaning is calling my name!
