I got up the first time around 6:40 and went back to bed. (Dh and dsonil were going to a nearby flea market -which dsonil just loved!) I slept until about 9:30am. Guess I needed it. I've been slowly getting around this morning. Obviously did not make it to church. My body craved sleep I guess -well actually I know it did. Had a bunch of things for dsonil but he just dropped dh off. So, dh did his exercises, put on his ice and took them over -a whole package of angus bacon/cheese burgers (which dh cannot have), a T ervis mug, an insulated soda can mug, a plastic container of dd's. Little more out of our freezer. Have a package of angus Vidalia onion burgers once ddil/DS-R have room in the freezer. Then I have a couple of kielbasa packages for them as soon as they can take them. They may end up taking them home.
I'm making my first trip this year down to W mart in Geneseo shortly. There's some things I just can't get at other closer markets. I have ordered online a few times. The cost of higher prices cancels out the cost of gas going that far. I always make sure I have over the $35 low limit so we don't have to pay shipping.
It really takes a lot out of DH and myself to travel and be "ON" nonstop for a couple of days.
Know what you mean -even without the travel, LadyM. Know when all the kids are here I feel much that way. And I think I was dreading that constant feeling if/when DS-A and family took a permanent spot. The one they were going to take was only 2 away from us and I felt that same feeling of always having to be "ON". But, as I said a week or so ago, they decided against taking a permanent spot when he landed in the hospital with what they thought was a heart attack. He was there a couple of days and has a $10,000 deductible on his insurance. He was too afraid of what his hospital and ambulance bills would be. However, the ambulance should be free since he was chief of the fire department. Guess we'll learn down the road. Guess he really wanted to be close to us and I get that, we're not getting any younger.
