Surviving the Pandemic, Day 421....

What a day! Seems like my life is either feast or famine. I cancelled working today due to a meeting I had.

My non bio grandson wrote and said they were on their way to town and wanted to see me for lunch. I hustled and got ready. He and his girlfriend had the 2 oldest sons, my great grandsons! They are adorable! Had a nice but too short lunch. They hope to move here! They are looking for a house!

Meeting was shorter than expected which made time for a short coffee with my friend moving to New York soon. I won't see her again until July. I am sad.

My brother and I had supper at Jalisco's. It is JS's birthday today. I gave him his gift first thing. I always know what he likes! He was very thankful.

What a good day. Many hugs and lots of smiles and family bonding. I sure need it! Grandson and JS both give the best hugs! I am lucky!

Came home and sprayed weeds. Way too high. My nephew sprayed the back yard today too. Anxious to see if mine works. I was careful to avoid peonies and irises. Hope it works.

I thought my last iris had bloomed. Surprise! A new bud!! Peonies are ready to burst!!

Nico was quite peeved at me for being gone all day. I offered him a treat and he just glared! And would not come to me or take it. Big baby!

 Always be kind. Wear a mask. Avoid toxic people and situations.

Surviving the Pandemic, Day 409....

Mostly a quiet day. Too warm. It was 83F today. Did not feel too humid. Very good!

Supper at Jalisco's with JR and GE. Had a good visit and lots of laughs. It was very busy. And very large take out orders. Plus at least 3-4 large groups that came in that each filled a booth and a 6 person table. JS did make time to chat and even text me. He always has to tease me. He made all of us plus the other staff laugh. He is so ornery! Nice to laugh. Sort of rare when alone often.

A friend shared something that said he is no longer fazed by anything. I think that is finally me. Something recently happened that should have sent me into a meltdown. It did not. Shed a couple of tears. And it truly did not change a thing in my life. Not the reaction they wanted I am sure. After the last 2 years, nothing fazes me. Been to hell and back.

I have actually had less pain the last few days. Nice. But a new pain hangs on. Mostly at night.

Always be kind. Wear a mask. Avoid toxic people and situations.
