Today was one of those days that just didn't go the way you planned. I had wanted to go over to Cee's today because today my brother's ashes were interred next to his wife's. But the Beast informed me (reminded, really) that he needed MY car to take Baron to the vets. He needed his rabies shot and some more heartworm medication. We have given that to him every month since he was three months old. It's mosquito season now and they carry the heart worm eggs and inject it into dogs and cats when they bite. It's in the stuff that allows them to bite you without you knowing until AFTER the fact.
My sister wrote to say that five of my brother's co-workers attended along with various family and friends. I was so grateful to hear that. They went to brunch together afterward. My poor sister, Bee, was exhausted by the end of the day and went to bed early. Love you, Sis. Thank you for taking care of all this. Wish I had been there to help out. See you in June.
There wasn't a lot that went wrong but it just seemed like things that should have been easy, weren't. Stuff that dropped out of my hands that shouldn't have. Things I went to grab that were hot and I should have known it. It was like my mind wasn't attached or something. I was just so distracted for some reason. I should have stayed in bed. I just hope tomorrow is better.
Chewlee decided that, since Johnnycakes now had moved their camper to the camp grounds, she wants to go there instead of here. I can't blame her. They have a pool there and she loves to swim. I really considered going to see her play soccer but I didn't write down the name of where she was going to be playing so I figured it just wasn't in the cards this week. I do really want to go watch her play one day. Maybe next week. It's worth getting up early for. They play around 10am every week. It's a bit of a ride for me so that means being up at 8am, getting dressed and eating something. Then programming the address into the GPS and heading out. Oh, and bringing a chair with me...two if Cee wants to go. She lives on the way so that only adds a few minutes to the drive.
I just went and set up the coffee for morning. The coffee ground holder doesn't use a filter in it so you kind of have to bang it on the side of the garbage can to empty the grounds out. Well, of course, I banged it once and it slipped out of my hands and into the garbage. I had the light over the sink on but it doesn't reach over to where the garbage can is. So it was turn on the kitchen lights, find the holder, turn off the light, go to the sink and clean it off thoroughly. *Sigh* Usually I can just rinse any remaining grounds out of it without doing anything else. Tonight it got greasy so that meant soap and water necessary. But I finally put it all together and it's ready for the Beast in the morning. He's going out again with his church group. Don't ask.
He did a little bit of shopping this afternoon and forgot to get my creamer for my coffee. I'll have to run out and get some in the morning but I don't mind. I want to pick up my cookies, too. We've been drinking tea in the evening (he likes his herbal tea and I drink my cinnamon tea) instead of coffee. I like it because we sleep better. I just wish the bathroom breaks weren't so often for us both. LOL. That hasn't changed.
Well, time to get back to bed. Love you all. Have a wonderful weekend. Drive carefully. ***Hugs***
