Day 37

Day 37

Sunday, May 4, 2014

Sunday was an odd mixture of good and frustrating.  Since TGF had never called, I spent the morning wondering what was going on, when (or if) she was coming.  I did get up earlyish; and I spent a bit more time getting the porch a bit neater looking.  There’s still more I’d like to get done, but it involves moving pots that are too heavy for me.  I hope someday my handtruck will be returned, but I’m not holding my breath.  TGF tends to “borrow” things but doesn’t like to return them, even when I ask.

I didn’t get much else done.  Not knowing what was happening, I didn’t want to get started on something and have to stop in the middle.

TGF and the 2 youngest boys got here about 2:00.  She had completely forgotten me on Saturday (had much more fun things to do). 

The boys decided to try to flush out the “extra” cat.  So they closed the kitchen door and started running around calling the cat.  Yeah, right, that’ll make it come out … NOT! 

She goofed on her timing, so we got to the play a little late .. about 2/3 into the first act.  We had to sit in the balcony until intermission.  But the seats we had (a friend had given the tickets to her) were front row center!  So the 2^nd act was good, and I could mostly tell what was going on.  And we could hear Really well!! 

After the play she brought me on home.  It was only around 6:00 by then, and the rest of the evening was quiet.  I started a new book, and sat up WAY too late listening to it.  It surprised me to stay awake, and just kept going.  I think I stopped around 2:00 .. it’s been many years since I stayed up that late.

This morning I remembered why. L  I woke with daylight, about 6:30 .. with a headache.  I turned the TV on, sound low but not off … and went on back to sleep for a couple more hours.  The headache went away, but I feel draggy.  I’m working on getting up the energy to get in the shower.  I really want to get the Easter things boxed up and back upstairs; go through some cabinets in the back hall for more discards; water the plants; do a load of laundry; bring some things down from upstairs; put up the Easter candles and get out ones to replace them … and right this minute I lack the energy or motivation to do any of that. 

I will start with  the shower and see how the day goes
