Today is Monday, July 19, 2010. Yesterday was a hot one, but no storms! The squirrels were out all over the yard. Even the blue jay stopped by yesterday for a short visit. Always nice to see him.Went to town on Friday, got all of the running around done for this week and the laundry too. So Saturday I stopped to get a pizza, from Papa John's, mama's favorite pizza joint. Headed over to her house. She was so excited to see that pizza box, they don't deliver to her since she moved. Withdrawal I guess almost two months without it. LOL Also took her favorite licorice candy, she is like a kid with this stuff.
The angel light switch covers turned out really nice. So I put those up for her after we ate pizza. We talked for most of the day, when it was time for me to head home, feed my crew, she says, I haven't seen you in awhile. Mama I seen you on the fourth, well it sure seems like it has been longer than that. I guess I had better make it a point to get over there at least once a week. I got the hint mama.Sunday George was off so needless to say I didn't get to much done. Every time he went somewhere I needed to go with him. If I "disappeared" to my craft room, here he come, what ya doing? He did get the pool vacuumed and a couple of other chores done. So today I don't have to do that. Poor Doc got a bath, Doc doesn't like to get wet. I was going out the back door and seen George bathing him, Doc looked at me like, why isn't he at work?
I think everyone stopped by that could stop by yesterday. Even son #1 stopped by on his way home from work about 10:30 last night. I am thinking that he wanted to talk about something, he just never said because son #5 was sitting with us. He usually doesn't stop that late knowing that we have to get up at 4:30. He will be off the next two days, so I am sure he will be back.
Keeping fingers crossed that I am able to get something done today! Don't even care what it is as long as it gets done.
Remember yesterday, dream about tomorrow, but live today. ~Brightest Blessings~
Hi Dede! What a nice little slice of your life. :) I can see you talking to your mom (I need to go see mine more often, too), and I can see your hubby trying to get your attention while you are trying to work - lol! I hope your older son gets a chance to talk with you, and that you get a chance to do exactly what you'd like to for a few hours. :) Happy Monday to you! xox
ReplyDeleteThose little licorice candies are my favorites. Haven't had them in a long time. Isn't this heat dreadful? It just never seems to end.
