Say It Ain't So Monday

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

I need to be sleeping myself.

Boys go back to school in the morning.

Taking daughter to the doctor.

Going to be a lot of hurrying up just to wait it out.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

It's three thirty am here. I have finished laundry and dishes. I did some online Christmas shopping. Now I'm going to try to get some sleep so I don't "sleep all day". Even though I'll most likely be up by ten thirty.

Morning.

Boys don't want to get up. I don't blame them, neither did I.

Raining again. 59. Warm enough for shorts.

Woke up, about 5:30ish, with an incredible pain in my left kidney area. After going to the bathroom is eased up a little. Finally stopped hurting enough to go back to sleep. But now I have a yucky stomach.

Hoping it was just a spasm.

Sipping breakfast with my morning meds.

Taking Caitlyn to the doctor later.

Yo ho me hearties.

Good Beautiful Chilly Morning! It is 37 degrees and sunny this morning. Supposed to rain this afternoon.

Doctors appointment then off to internship. This is my last week. Actually, Wednesday will be my last day and I will be over the hours needed.

I need to stop back at the dealership because I think I left my little pouch that has the registration for the other car there. And they need to give me a price for a third key fob.

Then I really need to start on the two papers that are due for school in about a week. Not difficult just time consuming.

just Czech · Give Me Grand's!

It's snowing! Again!!

We are expecting 6 to 8 inches today.

Oh, fun. NOT

I have to travel today, not looking forward to icy roads. Oh, well.

Have a great day!

Please be careful driving, Czech.

I have become obsessed with Ed Sheeran's video for "Thinking Out Loud."

It was so hard dragging myself out of bed this morning. A grey drizzly Monday after a long weekend. Yawn!

Safe travels, Czech!

Gosh, snow! cry I'm glad we're just dealing with rain.

Good morning, everyone!

Cloudy and drizzling this morning.

But, it should start clearing up later on today. Or, tomorrow at the latest.

I'm so sick of rain, we've gotten 8 or 9 inches since Thursday afternoon.

I'm looking forward to some sunshine! smile

So I went to Meijer this morning. Ahead of me in line was a young woman, maybe late 20's...jeans & an oversize camo jacket. She looked so down & even told the cashier that her debit card was messed up & she was having a bad day. She was buying 3 cans of Red Bull & a pack of cigarettes & had a check to pay for her things.

It was declined. Her total was $13.08 & I paid it.

Then, for some stupid reason, I started crying...

I'm no longer sure of the last time we had a full day of sunshine. I miss it.

You seem to be getting dumped with a lot of rain this year. Wow.

I'm still wearing open toed shoes. I'm just not ready to commit to socks & boots yet.

just Czech · Give Me Grand's!

flan, this will bring tears to your eyes as well.

This past Saturday evening, I took youngest DD (handicapped) down to the local short stop, so she could pick out a movie and a pop for the weekend.

DD loves to visit with anyone and everyone while out and about. She started up a conversation with a lady in line ahead of us at the checkout counter. While they were visiting, DD is her usual teasing way, said to the lady " you can pay for my movie and pop". DD already had the movie and pop on the counter and the lady said "I already did.". DD didn't really believe her, but then the lady asked DD her name and DD told her. The lady had a stunned look on her face and asked who DD's parents were. DD then introduced me as her mother, using my full name.

The lady looked at me and said, "I know you!" and then told me her name. It has been almost 30 years since I had last seen this lady, she was 18 back then, but I remembered her and she remembered me!

We had a short but interesting conversation of catching up and she was on her way back to Los Angeles. I did tell her she was still as pretty as the day I had last seen her, and I meant it. She still is a lovely person.

Anyway, she left and it was DD's turn at the check out. The check out person told us that the lady really had paid for DD's movie and pop. We were both stunned.

I sent a message via the lady's SIL telling her thank you and that she really is beautiful inside and out.

DD now has to pay it forward. But, I will too. smile

A chance meeting leading to a wonderful kindness. I love when that happens.

LOL, it is 39 & raining. I am probably the only person in town still wearing open toed shoes. I just last week finally committed to long sleeves. It dips & then goes back up to the 60s. Plus at this stage of life I'd rather be cold than hot.

flan327 · Itty bitty's Grammy

My story:

After DH1 died, I still had to work nights & the occasional weekend. I hired babysitters, of course, but also asked my friends to help out (3 main couples). I hated, HATED to impose on them & kept waiting for them to say: "Enough."

Of course, they never did.

What I did not understand until years later was that they WANTED to help. They had all known & loved DH1, and could not bring him back or ease our pain, but they COULD help me by babysitting.

And it made me feel good to help that poor gal.

This stage will pass and then you will be forever..... cold.

Pre-menopause I was always cold. I remember wearing layers & socks with slippers. Now I set the thermostat at 64 & wear a thin cotton gown & go bare foot. I can't wait for it to pass.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

So 2 and a half hours and $121later Caitlyn now has antibiotics and a note for two days out of work.

Serious sinus infection.

But she got z-pack so she should be good in a day or two.

Lexxy · My dog name is Sasha, too!

Those z-packs work great for sinus infections. She will probably already start feeling better by tomorrow.
