A day late.....
Friday Follow Up #2
Sunday is always busy. It used to not be. That was until last July when I enrolled G into drum lessons. Those lessons are now on Sundays at 3:30pm on the dot. I'm up at 7am to get dressed and ready for church, out the door by 9am, pick up Punky at mom's and head to church
This week, I took Geni for the day so my mom could catch up on sleep, get some cleaning done and go to the grocery store without distraction. I reveled in those days when Grant was little and I could escape and peruse the aisles endlessly until I felt prepared enough to return home. We left to head to lessons and while G was at lessons, I hurriedly went to Macy's to look and try to find a new purse. No luck!
After lessons, I dropped Grant st home, took Geni back to my mom, and went to the Dollar store to grab a few things. I realized before walking in that I left my wallet in her diaper bag, so I trapsed back to get my wallet. I think i was home by 6pm and I was spent! I just wanted to sit down and not do one more thing for anyone, lol.
Monday cane quick and I had it in my head to REALLY get all the Christmas decor out away. No such luck. Grant called me from the bus to say he forgot his lunch EVEN after I reminded him to make sure he got it. I ended up getting the dishes from the weekend loaded into dishwasher, pitting in some laundry, folding towels and whites, and ran to school to deliver a lunch box. That was his free pass for the year.
I went to Wal mart to see about ordering new contacts but my RX is expired. Therefore, I need to make an eye Dr. appt to get an exam and new script.
It's been raining here and dreadfully cold. I picked up just the necessities and stopped off at mom's to deliver toilet paper and puffs pet request.
Cane home and finished folding laundry and made dinner for G. We have an evening ritual of watching Jeopardy together and other mutually agreed upon t.v.
I decided Sort a last minute to join some people in Smyrna to watch the GA vs. AL game. I'm trying to branch out and go out of my comfort zone to meet other people other than those who I'm close to. It was fun and intense because the game was a nail biter. I got home later than I wanted and ended up falling asleep in the recliner.
I only got about 3 hours of sleep because the pupster, Odie, had a grooming appointment at 7am. What was I thinking?? I had to be yo anyway in time to make an 8am Dr. appt. Blood work, med check, etc....
By the time I was done with that, Odie was done. Scooped him up, came home to eat breakfast, take a shower and dozed on & off until noon. My "nephew" who will be 2 next month is visiting grandma ( Melody-my sister from another mister) and I agreed to watch him while she worked.
He got here around 1pm and we watched Netflix and I got him to take a late nap @ 4pm. Grant got home from school, I made dinner and played with Chrstipher. Put him in the tub and watched him play. Waiting on Melody to come from work to get him. Grant is good with litttles, but he is not ready to be one on one with them for extended periods of time I guess that's just how teen boys are. They see toddlers as annoying for the most part. Melody arrived and we all hung out for a bit. I headed to my cold sheets and down comforter and finally exhaled and was gone in seconds.
Thursday, I decided to go and get my nails done. It's the one thing I'm committed to when it comes to self care. Besides, if I didn't have these pretty nails, they would be destroyed because I'm a horrible nail biter. I picked up some lunch at Panera and cane home to wait for Christopher. We played and watched Zootopia for the third time and his parents picked him right in time for me to head out for dinner with my friends.
There was no school on Friday so the G and I basically stayed in and did nothing. We are so boring on snow days, Lol!
