I try really hard to post at least every three days and then time gets the best of me. And due to my advanced age and the possibility of encroaching dementia, I don't remember stuff that I was going to write about!
I remember one thing that shocked the absolute hell out of me this week. I was giving Anton a giant lecture yesterday about youngun's letting their phones die. What is with that anyway? Out of all the adults I know I have never ever heard even one of them say their phone was dead. Its all about time management and maturity. I swear.
And I have yet to meet a younger one that hasn't said their phone was dead. What the hell is their problem anyway?
So yesterday I was taking Anton with me to Costco to shop and then dropping him off at school. Later Monte would pick him up. So, as usual Anton's phone was dead so I suggested he make a call from the public phone just outside the school door. I told him I would give him a quarter if he didn't have change. And guess what he told me? A phone call is now FOUR DOLLARS!!!! Four freaking dollars!!!!!!!!!! I could not believe it! How the hell could a 25 cent call jump to four dollars? Thats insane! Bastards!!!
I have been home all week. I picked up a puke bug a week ago and seriously, if it weren't for gravol I would have jumped off my balcony by now, not that that would have done much, other than a couple broken ankles. I hate nausea. I lose my will to live pretty rapidly. Today seems a bit better.
Kathy and Kerry went to Vancouver a few days ago and I have been the lucky recipient of one pretty little dog. Emma is such a sweet well behaved dog. She sleeps on a duvet practically under my head at night. And during the day she sleeps where ever I am. She 'dogs' my footsteps. If I am in the kitchen chair she sleeps right by my chair on a little rug. If I go to the laundry room she lays on the top stair right by the door. And if I go to the loo in my purple room, she lays right at the door until I come out. I think she misses her mom and dad, more than she actually wants to be with me. We have really enjoyed having her here. All the kids really love her too. She gets tons of attention.
Well I have a daunting task in front of me. This afternoon I am hauling out all my summer clothes. I am heading off to Mexico in two weeks and I have gained enough weight that last summer's clothes will def not fit. So I have to try shit on and make decisions. Sigh (Humungous bigly shovel list) Plus I don't want to take very much with me so I have to decide which bag etc blah blah blah. But I will feel better once I get it done.
I am really looking forward to laying around, suntanning, floating on the man made river in an inner tube, swimming in the ocean. I won't be able to snorkel. I cannot see a thing without my glasses so there isn't much point. Plus I have a zillion books on my phone so I am going to read read read! I sincerely hope no one will think I am shunning them! I also need now to make a comprehensive list of to do's and stuff to pack.
Well a pop up keeps popping up here. Its been popping up for about a month now. I keep hitting later...because it involves updates and computer restart etc... I think I shall go do it now. TTYL
