Even though I spent most of the afternoon -- or so it seems -- just sitting at Wmart, I still feel like I have had a DAY.
Let's see --
* Calls to Wmart & to ds, confirming tires delivered and informing ds I could not pick up dgrands at school
-- after working all night, ddil had to return to Next Town for gyno-appt and wanted ds to drive her. She made it okay on her own though, and even managed to show up at Council meeting tonight at church.
* 2 hours at Wmart, shopped for a few things I had missed yesterday, including gift for dcousin's baby shower Sunday (but ended up having to do it online, and hope it arrives as promised on Saturday!) YES, Cathy -- that IS their "sneaky" plan. DH was complaining about it when I got home, but I really did need all the stuff I bought, except the Turtle Chex Mix...
* Post office
* Wrote check, paid bill for allergy doctor
* Talked to dmom
* Home -- talked to ds again
* Went out with dh to pick up supper -- RUSH --
* Council meeting (I was a little bit late to the meeting, and it was exhausting to me anyway, because the preacher is full of plans that sound like lots of work and does not want to have Confirmation class till fall probably and I'm aggravated because dgs needs to have that class now. I know he is ready to make the commitment to join the church and publicly profess his faith; I am not in the least concerned about the state of his soul's salvation -- but he I think he is putting this off until he has a chance to go through the class. Preacher said they usually wait till 6th grade, so I guess that will be all right if he does wait till fall. Sigh.)
* Talked to dbil, he came over & got basketball tickets and paid us for them
Now I just want to sit down and eat some more Chex mix and chill out, watch some of this ballgame and read. (I am reading on my phone, The Flight Attendant, a murder mystery that was on HBO or something a year or so ago -- I did not watch it -- but it starred one of the girls from Friends, I think. The book is pretty good.)
All that other stuff is just going to have to wait --
[ ] laundry,
[ ] change sheets,
[ ] take down Christmas,
[ ] slice a HUGE ham
All these anxieties and aggravations really seem small when thinking about what Dee and blessed are dealing with all day every day -- much love and prayer for both you ladies, your dhusbands, and all your families.
