5-27-13

 

Today I need to get my 5-7-13 letter in the mail.  Like the Doo-da Man says, “Sometimes the cards ain’t worth a damn, if you don’t lay em down.”

Today I need to cash THE check, get bank statements photocopied and scanned, and do some laundry.  It never ends.

I’m not going to do laundry today.  Today Dee and I are going out to Warwick to play some golf.  Should be a good time.

We just got back from Warwick.  We took the dog along with us.  Good times, all in all.  We only played 7 holes today.  Tomorrow I am going back there and trying to complete a whole round.

I’m putting my words down in a blog.  I like to write as much as you like to read.  So lets get it done.

We are waiting for dinner – white pizza with spinach and broccoli.  Perhaps a ride to the new house later..

Tomorrow is the last day of my vacation.  I plan to live it up one more day.

..

I got up early to go play golf.  Deirdre slept in.  I left by 7 and could see that it looked like rain.  So off to Beacon I went; Warwick was much too far and I wanted to play some golf before the rain set in.

Nobody was at Beacon.  It was a fair rain when I got there, not even a true drizzle.  There was no rain but you could feel the mist in the air.

I took the dog with me.  She is not allowed at the Beacon Glades, but I pretend that she is a wookie instead of a dog.

We played six holes today.  By the middle of five the rain had started to come down enough to put a damper on the day.  My fingers kept slipping when I went to throw the disc.  On my approach on the fifth hole I shot really short and almost hit Missy.  I knew that it was time to hang it up for the day.  We played one more hole and then hit the road.

Tomorrow I return to work and Mom and Dad go to Italy.  Deirdre and I are watching the house, and we plan to use the time to do our laundry and clean up our apartment.  We really need to get some stuff done before we close on Bush Ave.
I just finished eating lunch and now I need to clean up around the flat.  I’m just going to throw out stuff and put laundry into different bags.

I’m not really in the mood to clean but it needs to be done desperately and no one else is gonna do it.

I didn’t clean up much, but I did get a bag of trash out.  Now I’m watching reruns.

We have radon in our new house!  The nightmare begins!

Today I ran into Matt P. and Jeff C.  They are both doing well.  All things are good with them.

..

Mom and Dad go to Italy and I return to work.  Lets do this!

Okay, I am officially off to work.  My vacation is over, house sitting begins.  We stay at my parent’s house when they go on vacation so that they don’t need to board Alfie, their dog.  I love to steam in their steam shower.  I also like to be able to catch up on laundry.  Laundry seems to be a big part of my life.

Sometimes I go to work early and do a load of laundry at the laundry mat that is across the field from my office.  Today is back to work day.  No laundry today or tomorrow.  I will do a couple of loads over the weekend.
A quick mid day post.  I hope your day is going well.  I’m on a slow adjustment period back into work.  Running work errands right now.  Deirdre is on her way to the airport with Mom and Dad.  All is right with the world.

Home from my first day back at work.  Things went well today.  On to Mom’s house for a refreshing steam.

I’m still down at the flat trying to pull documents together for my underwriter.  Things are rolling along slowly.

I’m tasked with getting the cat and the dog over to Mom’s.  The cat ain’t much of a traveler.  The dog will be fine.  Better get it done.

..

Thank God it is Friday.  Thats the way to do it- return to work on a Thursday so that you only need to work two days before the weekend.  We are up at the folks place and they are safe in Italy.  The cat really wants to go outside with the dogs.  He has no front claws.  He stays inside.

I got up real early today.  Perhaps it is the Abilify, but whatever it is gets me up in the morning.

Work was fine.  Im home now typing on the pc.  Feel that Friday vibe?  Love it.

..

Oh no!  Williams golf game is today and it is raining!  I hope it clears up so that we can play.  I am really looking forward to hanging out with my nephew.

Today I am making a dump run with Juxy and trying to get some cleaning done.  We want to do our laundry for free up at the house.  Im gonna try to make it happen.

I just checked out the weather.  It looks like clouds, not like rain.  But there is no denying that it is raining out right now.  I hope we can do it.

My friend in Las Vegas sent me a birthday package filled with all sorts of neat treats.  She got me a bunch of ethnic shaving products that I cant find around here (perhaps I am not ethnic enough).  She also sent me a kind nuggie.  You cant beat that.

We need to donate a lot of clothing to good will.  I already donated most of my shoe collection.  Deirdre has lots of big clothing that we need to get rid of.

I got a text from Juxy – he is ready for the dump run – or at least he is up.  Time to get a move on!

I’m back from the dump, breakfast with Juxy, and playing golf with Billy and William.  Now to collect some laundry and do some good work.

White clothing is always the starting point.  Start with the white stuff.  Then darks, light clothing is last.  I’ve actually started doing all my tee shirts together at one time.  I can’t afford to have them professionally laundered so I do them myself and I do them all at once.  Can’t stand doing shirts.  It reminds me of my retail days at London Fog.  So many years ago..

..

Happy Mothers Day!  We are up early and off to church and brunch with Nan.  Today I plan to do a little laundry and get ready for the work week.

We are now back from church and brunch.  Time to do something. It is 3pm and there is still time left in the day.  Lets get something done.

..

Monday, Monday.

..

Yesterday was a toughie – the first Monday that I was back to work.  Everything went smooth yesterday; I hope the rest of the week goes by as quickly.

I like the emails that my mom has been sending us.  It looks like a good time out in Italy.

Now I am waiting for my infusion.

All done with the infusion and groggy.  

We had a great dinner with fresh asparagus from Nan’s garden.  Homemade cookies for dessert.

..

I went to bed right after dinner.  It is now 1:30am and I got up from a long long nap.  I’m gonna check my email and try to get back to sleep.

Good morning!  Coffee time.  We have been trying to go vegan, but my coffee needs some milk.  We have tried substitutes like soy and coconut milk, but to no avail.  So now I use organic locally produced cow milk.  You will never get to be a vegan that way.

..

Today is the day to mail out this letter.  I will start up the 5-27-13 letter today as well.  

Yesterday I had a good time playing golf with William.  He was able to throw the disc pretty good all in all.  Man, that kid sure enjoys a good talk.

Enough!  Print it out and start over.  Enjoy.
