Sunday, March 18th, 2018…… I’m finding my new ‘alarm clock’ comes
in our room around 7:00am to check to see if I’m up yet! She’s pretty quiet but
each trip she gets a little louder hoping I’ll get out of bed and get dressed
and take her for her walk. I managed a
few more minutes today but I got up and got her out. She knows the drill – we walk the property
and she does her business once out there.
We stop at the trash can in the garage where I dump the doggie bag and
then pick up her leash. Once she sees
that, she heads for the end of the driveway to get hooked up for her walk up
the street. She finds another spot off the road there to drop another present
(all of these always get picked up). We
get back and I throw the chuck-it tennis ball a few times, then we go in and
she gets fed. After that, we can get showered and cleaned up and ready for the
day. Not much to get ready for today. Lydia started a crockpot pork roast and
carrots dish for dinner and that was about all any of us did. I did get out to the shop for a few minutes
to prep my stuff for more work tomorrow on the steps. That was about it for me. Penny caught up on
calls to her friends and we watched tv and took it easy for the rest of the day
and evening.
Monday, March 19th, 2018…… This
morning I got up (same time, same alarm) and we did our morning routine. The
weather has been great all weekend, just a few sprinkles, otherwise nice and
sunny. I keep hoping to get that call
that the concrete truck is coming! Dana did call last night to let me know they
are trying to expedite things but all they are told is ‘maybe this week’. We’ll see….
Lydia and I
decided to run over and check my sister’s house today. Her neighbor is parking their vehicles in and
out of her driveway so that’s good. Her
mailman knows Tina, our mail carrier, and he’s giving her Penny’s mail to add
to my box. Try having that happen in
SoCal! The house was fine. We picked up a few items she asked for then we
headed over to Ace to get the rest of the material for my steps. I worked on
that and Lydia and Penny hung around the house.
My plan was to get my project done and then come in and vacuum the
carpets and then swiffer the hardwood floors. Only problem was I discovered
that my back was tightening up so I came in and took some Aleve and called it a
day. We did go out to pick up Carl’s Jr for take-out for dinner. Quick and easy. We finished up the evening
watching tv until bedtime.
