Fifty-seven years ago today, Mike and I got married in San Bernardino, CA - a day that started our life together, raising our two sons, having lots of adventures, and becoming the best of friends. It’s so sad that only 45 of them were spent together. I miss him.
I cleaned house for Cassie and Tommy and made an easy $100 that is always good for the pocket. After I got home, I walked Joey and while walking, I got a call from Judy asking if I was coming to art class. Oops! So after getting ready for my next appointment, I headed to class and we made a mosaic painting that turned out really cute. After class, I went to my bone density test appointment and was ready to veg out at home when I got back home.
I packed up and was on the road and heading to Stoughton by about 9:15. The drive was easy, road conditions were great, and the trip went fine. I saw huge flicks of pelicans along the Mississippi River and several Herons in the sky too. Traffic was quite heavy after hitting Wisconsin Dells. I visited with Dawn for a while and then went to see Pat and Tracey - it was great to get hugs again from them. We had Reuben sandwiches for dinner and then I headed back to Dawn’s house.
Friday was a whirlwind, starting with coffee, a nice walk, and breakfast with Dawn. I then went to visit Judy, who stopped dialysis treatments last October and is still doing fairly well, although I do feel that this might be the last time I see her. We had a very nice visit, reminisced about a lot of things, and then we hugged and said ‘see you later’. And I cried when I got to my car.
My next stop was to see Susan and Joey and Rocky finally met - they came quick friends and got along fine, although they didn’t play together. We had a nice visit, always finding lots to talk about. We have been good friends for a long, long time.
Pat and Tracey and I ordered pizza for dinner and watched “A Million Ways to Die in the West” a fun parody of the old west that brought lots of laughs.
I spent most of the day today with Pat and Tracey, helping Tracey clear out her closet (she still has difficulty getting her hangers hung) and part of that is because she has way too many clothes in there - not much room to hang more. I also helped her with her laundry and then made a pasta, meatball, cheese and marinara hot dish for dinner that turned out to be yummy. I will definitely make that again.
