Good Evening
Well, I've put on a pot of potato soup, and it's cookin', for supper. Lee will be here in about an hour. It has been nasty and rainy here all day, and not very warm...and from the time I got up this morning, a big pot of warm potato soup, sounded good for supper. Not to mention, it's quick.
Lee has been sick, and really felt like yuck last weekend, and missed a day of work. Now, I think he's given it to me. I"ve been feeling like warmed-over death the past couple of days. Then, with the holidays, it was total chaos yesterday.....that's another story. Today wasn't quite as bad, but I really didn't reel like draggin' myself out this morning, in the cold and damp, but knew I had to, regardless of how crappy I felt. I just kept telling myself, that maybe today wouldn't be too bad, and I could be home at a decent hour. So....slowly, I make myself get up from this puter, where I'm enjoying my morning coffee, and drug myself downstairs to get dressed. I finally got it together, and headed out the door, braving the wind and rain. Wet, I start searching through my purse for keys. NO keys. Oh...t hat's right, Landon moved my car last night, so he probably just laid them on the table. So, in I run, to the table...NO keys. So, I start looking other places...the seats, the bedroom, upstairs on the puter desk, and I can't find my keys ANYWHERE! Oh, boy...this is great. I bet Landon has stuck them in his pocket and taken them home with him, and here I am....stuck. So, I did through my purse again, and all though the house. Finally, just as I was walking past our Christmas tree...I looked down, and there they were, on the floor, towards the back, between the tree and the recliner. It's a wonder I'd ever seen them back there. I have a feeling they got laid on the arm rest of the recliner, and then fell off onto the floor. I will have to admit, that all this time I was looking for my keys, I was telling myself, that it would be nice, not to have to get out in this weather. But...alas....what can I say. I had to go to work. It wasn't bad at all, and I was done around 2.
I had a couple of things to do...pay the rent, etc., and was about to hit Kohls to exchange some underware lee got for christmas..., and about the time I was pulling into the parking space, my cell rang, and it was my boss. He had decided to leave town today, instead of tomorrow, and wanted to know where he could meet me, so he could give me my paycheck...which I needed, and couldn't wait till Monday. So, we made arrangements on where to meet, and I just put the car in reverse, and pulled right back out of the parking space. I knew I wouldn't have enough time to get the exchange made, and meet him in time, so it was no biggie. That was a nice added bonus...not having to work tomorrow, so I can go exchange underware then. lol
I'm so excited....I talked to Kirk today, and Eva has been doing some standing up and holding it, for a while. I know I've told most of you that she has been diagnoised with juvinile arthritis in her knees, and it was affecting her being able to stand up and lock her knees into place, and also some problems with the tendons. Tara-Lee had the same problems as a child. But, she has been wearing some braces that go around the knees, while she sleeps, and it's helping strenghten the tendons in the backs of the knees. It won't be long now before she'll be runnin' all over the house.
I'm not really sure what else I have to do tomorrow, besides exchange underware...lol. I don't really have to do that tomorrow. I really need to stay at home and work on laundry. It's been piling up, and I got a pretty good start on it last weekend, but never got it all put away, so now I have dirty that I didn't get to last week, clean that isn't put away, and dirty that's accumlated since then. lol It's a vicious cycle...lol I don't know if I can ever say that ALL my laundry was ALL clean and put away, ALL at the same time. lol If it's even close to it, I can't get lots of my drawers shut. lol Guess that means I need to get rid of some of it. lol Which I have been weedin' some of it out. My next weedout, I think, is sweatshirts. I have several that I don't wear. I'll pack um up, and take them to Salvation Army, probably... of course, while I'm there, I'll have to look....afterall...I need to replace what I brought in...lol
I saw the best sign when we were in Indiana this summer, and we always go to the Goodwill store when we're there, and they have a big sign on the wall, up front by the registers that say...
"It's a vicious cycle. Donate. Shop. Donate. Shop. Donate
Well, I will admit, I do that. I sure don't see a thing wrong with recycling! lol
It's almost 7, and Lee will probably be here in a 1/2hr. or so. Maybe before. He's usually not anylater than then. They're not working any extended hours, now with the holidays over, and he is sure glad about that. He had some 15 hr. days. 2 days work into one. He was dead! I suppose I'll head outta here. I'll be around later after we eat, to check up and see what everyone's been doin' on here. Until then..........
Much love,
Lev
