GRANDKIDS - SQUEEZE 'EM UP, SUGAR 'EM UP, SEND THEM HOME.
I have no clue who said that, but I found a neat wall thingy with that written on it and I thought I would pass it along.
Yes, Dad and I had a nice field trip today. He called around 8 AM and told me he had some errands to run and I was driving! Yes, I caved but since I was in the middle of cooking chicken for noodles, I told him I would pick him up at 10:30. This is the first time that I have attempted to take him out and about. I was nervous that he might run away from me, so I told him I was the boss today, and that he had to mind me. Well, that didn't go over so well. He informed me that HE was doing the bossing. However, he did mind his manners and didn't try to get away from me. Around 9:30 I got a call from The Club asking me if someone was really coming to take Dad for a few hours. Apparently he was sitting by the security doors with his coat on, waiting for me. All in all, we went to the bank, ate lunch at Burger King, got his hair cut by his usual barber, drove past Jenna's house so he could see where she lived now, then went to my house so he could see how nice his truck turned out after being repaired. When we got back to The Club, I gave him a photo album that I have started sticking pictures in and told he could look at that when I left. He was really eager to look at it, plus he said he needed a nap. Me too. I'm telling all my siblings to pony up some old and new snapshots to fill up some albums, because he seems to enjoy looking at them.
Years ago, I heard about a woman who wrote a book entitled "I'M DANCING AS FAST AS I CAN". I'm not sure what it was about, but the title certainly fits the last few weeks. I am so happy to be able to use my arms again, but there seems to be soooo much cleaning to do. It kinda snuck up on me, but no matter what I do, I can't wait to get started on another project. I was hoping I could get the carpet cleaners here tomorrow, but they can't come until Monday unless they get a cancellation. It's supposed to be 71 degrees and sunny tomorrow and would be a perfect day for such a project. I am crossing my figures for a cancellation out there.
Good night! I'm hitting the sack!
GOD BLESS YOU ALL
