A short night

 

I’m feeling a little sleep deprived right now.  Yesterday was an extremely LONG day – even by my standards.

I was up yesterday at 5:00 for work and didn’t hit my bed for sleep until 1:00 am this morning – and up again at 5:00am for work. Add to that waking up around 2:30 this morning due to the storm that blew through our area.  Four hours of sleep is not enough for me.   What was going on you ask?  Besides the normal day of work, I had yoga classes last night (rescheduled from my normal evening of Thursday – tonight- due to availability of The Bunker). I then made a quick trip to the grocery store for the “emergency list of items” my hubster said we couldn’t “live without”, you know….pop, ketchup, toilet paper, bread, and the most important…… chocolate! ~L~

Then up to the hospital to see my sister Peggy who had surgery yesterday. Nothing serious, though she will be in the hospital for a few days.  They had her on morphine post-op and apparently she got a little wild with the staff (chuckle).  My nieces are here from Minneapolis and they were relaying just a small bit of events from yesterday afternoon.  Oh my!  I think she needs to wear a medic-alert braclet so that she never gets that stuff ever again!  So the girls could eat, I stayed until 9:30pm last night –long enough to see that she got her pain meds (no morphine) and that she was resting comfortably.

Home by 10:00pm only to find a message that hubs was going to be harvesting as “late as he could go” to try and finish the oats before it stormed.   I could have gone to bed but I hadn’t eaten yet, and I know that he hadn’t either.  Sooooooo….we ate supper last night at midnight.   Yeah….I know!!! NOT good for the digestive system at all.   I made something light – as much as I could – and we sat together and ate and discussed the days events (as much as we could between bites of food and falling asleep).  ~L~ 

The bonus to yesterday was that I had two great yoga classes, I got to talk with my sisters, and I saw Joan and Karen (nieces)! 

So yeah, it was a short night!

Welcome to the Shit Show!

 I'm trying not to breaking one of my hard and fast rules - do not  talk politics or religion .  But for the love of all things holy, I cannot not   comment on the total shit show of last nights presidential debate.     America, we're screwed!     I want the chance to write in a candidate.  I think anyone would be a better option than the two we have right now.  UGGGHHHH!   I'm soooooo tired of the bickering . right vs. left.  I'm tired of the media, I'm tired of black lives matter (ALL LIVES MATTER, shit heads!), cop kiilings, riots and the disrespect and downright hatred  of the flag, of our Country!   I'm scared for everyone concerned.  I feel  the anger, the despair, the lack of consideration and respect - not only for the country -but for humanity .   I heard Savanna Guthrie , NBC Today Show, say that Social Media was the cesspool of society."   I couldn't have said it bet...

Merry Christmas!

For Christmas 2022, I had promised Blaine that I would take him to Million (aka Michael) and get his UJ (University of Jamestown) tattoo recolored.  Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate and I couldn't fulfill my promise to him. Christmas 2023 I was  subtly  reminded that I owed him his gift from last year!  He forgets  to brush his teeth or clean his apartment but gosh darn he sure remembers if it's something he wants!  Michael was all about making it look like new again and hooked us up with an appointment yesterday.   What a day!!! We started out with coffee and egg McMuffins and plenty of conversation as we rolled down the interstate! I think his mouth was going faster than we were traveling! We covered so man y topics! We laughed a lot but cried a bit too as we remembered the farm and grandpa and grandma. After the tattoo, we went ro Scheels for a few more Christmas gifts.. a swim bag for his Special Olympics swimming gea...

A Repeat...

Once in a while I receive a request to "repeat" a blog post. This is one of the repeat posts that I hope you all enjoy the 2nd time around. It was originally posted in May of 2008. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Greetings Everyone, I received an email about 9 years ago from a far-away-friend that touched me to the core. It was entitled "Life's Lessons." I printed it out and tucked it away to read when I needed some inspiration. I ran across it awhile ago and, not surprisingly, it touched me as much now as it did then. So, to my friend Lee - wherever you may be, thank you for sending me something so beautiful and for thinking of me. Be well My friend. Life's Lessons Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, they serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be; your ...
