Friday night… I came home rested a bit on the couch, remember eating something just not sure what it was. I got my late partners monitor and hooked it up to my new desktop. Now I have 2 monitors, just like I am at work. The only problem is the color temperature is not as bright, but it does serve it’s purpose quite well. I am amazed at the fact that I made it fit, with some reorganization. It’s taking some getting used to but I think I will keep it. I found the receipt for it and I only paid $197, so not bad at all – plus it’s a 2nd screen that was just sitting idle.
Saturday… I got roped into picking my mom up and taking her to the lab. I did that and then headed for the buffet. I had a good meal but the drive to get away just didn’t feel as freeing. Mostly because I was tired already. I came back home and had an e-mail, earlier in the day I signed my mom up so she could get her lab results electronically. Only thing is she didn’t know her e-mail address, so I used mine. Wouldn’t you know it about the time I wanted to lay down and nap, I had to print out lab results and take them to her. Well she didn’t know that I was coming, so I got my nap in first and then went to see her. She was really surprised. I figured that I would take them to her since she has been chomping at the bit to get them for almost a month. Her surgery for a cornea transplant is supposed to happen next week. Hopefully, all goes well. She told me and my brother that she hopes Santa brings her a car for Christmas. That isn’t going to happen – besides that I think we both feel the same thing, she need not be driving.
While I was there I had some pizza and got to meet my brothers girlfriend. Her name is Barbie but she looks more like a cow. No really she is a chunky money, which kind of surprises me. She had her hands all over my brother at times and we were able to talk for a little bit. I kind of wish I had a guy I could introduce them to. My mom asked me so have you started dating yet? I said yeah I did that and she said so how did it go? I said not well. So now she tells me well it was too soon anyway. That’s nice glad you think that. Last time I checked it was my life and I was in charge. It may in fact be too soon and I may be rushing things and I may be anxious but it’s still my life. I didn’t say all that – those are just thoughts. I broke the news that I am a homeowner now and it’s all mine! Then mom starts up how we should all live together. Okay I think it’s time for me to go on that note. I have no desire to live with her or my brother and well you all aren’t moving into my place, that is for damn sure.
Sunday… Ah the extra hour of sleep. The cats are so confused and don’t know up from down. All they know is we need food. I got to sleep in but had to fight for that right. I had IHOP for breakfast, made it to 2 grocery stores and then home. I didn’t really single anything out for supper and I spent my money lightly at both stores. So I treated myself to Steak & Shake for supper. I wanted a milk shake but instead will have Ben & Jerry’s as I watch a movie. Thinking of watching Sex Tape, simply because it sounds funny and who doesn’t need a laugh.
I put BLU’s paw prints on top of his urn and well that was a little emotional and conjured up some feelings. I still have regrets when I think about him but it’s done and I don’t and won’t get a “do over”. He will always be alive in my heart. I wish that he and my late partner were coming back from a long vacation but I know that isn’t going to happen. Sitting looking through dating apps at different guys and thinking of who will be his replacement well that just makes me think I will never find said replacement. I am actually starting over, not looking for a replacement – but there are some qualities that are a must and I have to know who ever I decide to hitch my wagon to has my back at all times, at all costs, no matter what that no one or nothing will come between us.
The truck sure got a workout this weekend. It never goes anywhere and well it’s got it’s get up and go back. My mom still wants to buy it but we know that isn’t going to happen.
I did finish up Neil Patrick Harris’ book it was very entertaining and I learned a lot about him. He has done so many things that I wasn’t aware of as I suspect most of the world wasn’t aware of. David Burtka is one lucky guy, I say that all the time. So now I have moved on to How To Win Friends & Influence People in the Digital Age. I figured that might help me with dating. I rather enjoy audio books and listening during a commute well it’s better than music to me. I think Audible might just have there hooks into me.
Speaking of hooks well I should get upstairs and start on Ben & Jerry’s the night will be over after a movie. Plus the children await and there are still some wrap up chores that I need to do. So I will talk with you peeps again soon. Ugh, back to Monday tomorrow. Good news is that 2 weeks after this week it will be Turkey day here in the US and that means a very short work week, which I am so looking forward to. I hope you enjoyed your weekend!
