Easter

I was rather lazy in the morning, which was kind of expected.  I did get up and get going and got the necessary things done.  I arrived with plenty of time to spare.  I was told that we would be eating at 3 but we didn’t start until 4:30.  They had a gaggle of guests and there was a mountain of food.  As par usual there were only a few things that I really cared for.  They got the usual Honey Baked Ham, which is always good.  Mashed Potatoes overloaded with Garlic, I took a small amount they were okay.  Frozen Peas with a stick of butter and some pearl onions (not so good), Asparagus which is one of my favorite things, but I don’t know what he did to them I didn’t much care for the taste.  Waldorf Salad which I passed on.  I think there was one other item but I can’t remember what it was.  Desert was Strawberry Shortcake with Strawberry Ice Cream and real freshly made Whip Cream.  Desert was the best part of the whole meal.  I was limited to one soda, I asked for more but no one brought me one.

Call me crazy but it just felt like I was a 3rd wheel here, the spark of the friendship didn’t seem to be alive.  I didn’t feel as welcome as I have in the past.  I did get to chat a but about life and hit the high points.  I stayed way longer than I wanted to and it was late when I got home.  Thankfully I had most everything in order so a little bit of work and I was ready for bed. 

I did take time in the morning to spend with Bear.  He nibbled on my fingers again.  I think that is so cute.  He loves attention and I have found some food that he loves.  The problem is that the rest of his body doesn’t love it.  However, as long as he is eating I will deal with the rest.  It’s just a part of the ownership experience that I signed up for or should I say that I was signed up for. 

Everyone got attention from Daddy.  Marv decided not to sleep with me last night, not sure why because I didn’t give him medicine.  I called and called but he never responded, so I closed the door.  This morning he was my long lost friend and of course he will be by my side tonight because he missed me.  I like sleeping with him but feel that he needs to get in as much time with his brother as possible, those two are really something else.  The poster children for brothers – they get along very well and know how to share.  They have their moments of playing and fighting but those are short lived.  For the most part they are happy kids, that do a lot of sleeping. 

I will have to do some tidying up on Thursday night or Friday morning so that the place is acceptable for the AC guy.  I am not crazy about Friday in general because it’s going to be a day of money and I hope that it isn’t a huge amount.  Plus we have warm weather in the forecast for most of the week so the house is going to be HOT at night and I hate that.  Hopefully by Friday afternoon that issue will be solved.  I want to take time to go see Furious 7 – I am sure that I will tear up when they get to the tribute to Paul Walker.  I had a wicked crush on him and it’s hard to believe that someone so young is gone.  Tragic but his memory lives on. 

So here we are at Monday morning.  I honestly thought about calling in just because I didn’t want to come to work but reminded myself that I have Friday off.  I am looking for a break and not sure that 3 days will be enough but I will take what I can get.  I hope that this is a fast moving week and a slow moving weekend.  Having the extra day, depending upon how much of it that I have to myself will be a nice change of pace.  I proved to myself that I can get a lot done in 1 day which was nice to know, just in case in the future I want to cram it all into 1 day and then spent another day at home. 

That is all I know for the moment.  Here is hoping that all goes well for everyone this week and that Friday gets here fast.  Take care and I will talk with you peeps later.
