An Awesome Day

Mom and I left here just around 10 and headed over to LIz’s.  Even though we took different routes we arrived at the same time.  However, the baby of the hour hadn’t arrived yet and wouldn’t for another hour and half.  So Mom went back home to do some shopping and cooking and I stayed and kept Liz Company for a couple of hours.  We chatted and she cleaned and I helped with chores.  

While I was there Nelson had called from Norwalk and said there was traffic delay and they were moving slowly.  It would be another hour and half before getting home.  So I went and got my glasses adjusted at Costco. While I was there I ran into some friends of mine I knew in different worlds.  After a while I left and noticed I had gotten calls from Liz.  

They had arrived and were at the house.  This had to be about one.  WHen I arrived Adam was in the kitchen, Olga else where Poppie cleaning the house and Grandma holding this absolutely beautiful baby boy.  I watched Liz feed him and talk with him for a short time and then she had me sit in a comfortable chair and then I fed him some more.   She took a couple of pictures and when she either posts them or sends them to me I will post them.  I think I got to hold him a good long time and he was so cunning.  Soon more came including Rich my nephew and Mom.  THey both held him a great long time.  It was funny he was being passed around like a football.  :) Actually Sweet Baby James fell asleep in Mom’s arms and then they handed him to Rich and he slept longer while Rich watched the latest soccer match on TV.  Mom left a few minutes later and I left around 3.

They were all going over to CHeryl’s house for “cousins get together” this afternoon and needed to relax and or get ready for it.  Both Adam and Olga looked great.   Olga was saying how tired she was.  

When I left it was the rain was starting up again.  I was home a short time later and found Mom doing some cooking.  In order for her to get ready for church I helped with the vegetable part of our dinner.  She was going to cook a daisy ham and vegetables.  While she was gone I had to keep an eye on the daisy ham.  It took a rather long time to boil and when I had to turn it down I turned it way down.  

I spent the time channel surfing and web surfing.  When Mom came home she baked an apple dessert and I set the table and relaxed until it was time to eat.  

While I was waiting for dinner I was sitting in the TV room and suddenly I got dizzy.  I think it was the second time this week.  I laid back on the bed until it passed.  It was weird and a bit disconcerting.  I haven’t had any repeat performances from it.  I think I may have to call the MD about it.

After dinner I dropped the margarita mix off at Chairman Phil’s house to add to the Auction for Awards banquet on the 7th.  I hope he got it.  They were not home when I dropped it off but I called and left a message just the same. I can expect a message tomorrow or see him at the parade tomorrow.

Oh yeah I am going to the Parade tomorrow afternoon.  Liz is going to the theater and won’t be going to the parade this year and Nel will be marching with the Knights in the rain. There are  other Memorial Day activities in the morning but I won’t be able to go because I am going to be at bingo.

Well its getting late now and I want to get to bed.  Have a great night and be safe...

Wednesday Mid Week Reflection



Every week the Journal-Writing list I belong to has “Wednesday Mid-Week Reflection and encourages the members to write in their journals.  Well since I do this (write in my journal) regularly I don’t always do this journal prompt.  Today I decided I would do it this week.

It has been a rather quiet week so far.  I have been working mostly and becoming a little overwhelmed with the work.  I am about a day and half behind in opening the mail I have received.  I couldn’t work on Friday’s mail on Saturday so I did it Monday and everything was moved back a day or so (or is it up?)

I had my INR/Coumadin level checked on Monday and it is rather low for me but apparently a normal level for everyone else.  I was supposed to be taking the Warfarin right after the oral procedure last week but neither the tech nor I knew this.  I see them again on Friday.

Last night at dinner I had a dizzy spell.  The entire room was spinning and at first didn’t say anything to Mom and I waited for it to pass.  It slowed down for a short time and then started up again.  I left the table and went and lied down.  It finally passed but it was really weird.

I haven’t started anything for Christmas.  I am hoping to get the card list written out and then mail them soon. 

The rest of the week will be quiet for except for a couple of meetings.

Last Day of Vacation

      Considering that today is my last day of vacation.   I am going to make sure things that were not done (housework mostly) are done...
