An Update -
Sandra called.
Today, (Thursday) they moved into their own place in Fort Dodge. They are renting a townhouse. Ryan has been working the restaurant he was previously; and just got a job managing a golf course and club house. He will hire Sandra to be a part-time bartender. They hope to come here Sunday and pick up the rest of their things. It sounds like they will bring Lilly. I'm almost afraid to get my hopes up for seeing Lilly.
I had a short, but very productive day at work. It was still a long day over-all.
I went clearance shopping after I got off work. Even though my injuries seem to be healing on outward appearances, I still don't have much for endurance while walking - even for a few minutes. Global Bazaar went 75% off today. I snagged a couple of new lamps for downstairs. Willie already has our old ones at his place. He really lacked light over there.
I also splurged on the new James Blunt CD. Either you love him or you hate him. For me it was love at first listen.
I got home and Willie came over. This is our pay week and bill paying week.
Read that as "I spent the afternoon doing Math with Willie" (which will be the title of the book that is in my head). For such a small budget, he sure can argue a long time.
I re-arranged the small things in my office this evening and cleaned my desk.
Which interestingly enough, I did at work yesterday too. I am no longer in the cold drafty corner. I am six feet away with a file cabinet to protect me. Now Phyllis and I can much easier share our small space heater. I also re-did my files to suit my needs with our new programming.
Phyllis starts vacation tomorrow. I am on my own with the rest of the clerical work for the next week. I hope I remember everything I am to do.
I promised Mom the link to Spoons again. If you haven't read this before, I highly recommend it now. And welcome to my world.
I thought with our nest become so empty, clean and organized; I could get Rand off this "want an apartment" kick. He joined me at Target for supper last night and I learned I was wrong. He is still in the mood. Mostly I think he is done with maintenance and upkeep. He's tired. Luckily, I have a few years to change his mind. Hopefully, our lives will slow down and inner rest can come as well.
Who knew? Rob is actually going to graduate! I might have to request that day off!
I should try to sleep. I'm having a nice painful flare up. Sleep doesn't come well with these.
I think the blogger spell check was invented on the short bus.....
