Today was a busy day. I started by getting up at 7 this morning, in order to get hubby to work about 8am. Today was month end inventory day, so he had to be there early to get everybody started counting and start running the reports for the college. He works long days on inventory day.
So today my therapist, Steve, was back from vacation and we were meeting. I asked him how his vacation went and he said wife and he went to a beautiful place and promptly got sick. Wife got sicker than him but it wasn't a good time for either of them. Then we talked about how my daughter, Cassie, set her wedding date for Mary 16 and how I need to let go of the jealousy of Drew's mom that Cassie lives with and is helping her out with planning the wedding. Cassie is talking to me about the wedding and I have made suggestions so I can't be too jealous and that is what Steve is trying to get me to focus on. And how to face the idea of being around Cassie's dad and his wife and possibly his dad and brother and sister and their spouses. It's a lot for me as I don't have pleasant memories associated with any of them.
So after therapy, I drove over to my friend Diana's place and met her to have lunch and take up some carpet in her apartment. She said she had permission to remove some of the carpet in the entry way and she bought some linoleum to put down. We used the box cutters I brought and cut the carpet, then pulled it up. Then she got out a hammer and a screwdriver and started to take out the carpet tack. We rolled up the carpet and started taking out the padding when she had to go to the bathroom and I called hubby and told him that I was going to tell Diana that he needed the car and I had to leave. Frankly, the dirt from the carpet was really bothering my allergies and I needed to get out of there. Well, I think Diana overheard me and I hurt her feelings because as soon as I said I needed to go shortly, she rushed me out and wouldn't even let me help her take out the trash.
I drove over my Red Hat Queen's house, Judithmary, and showed her the doll that Pat from the estate sale, was telling her about and she didn't want it. Judithmary just wanted to talk and catch up on what has been going on and tell me about her disastrous Red Hat trip to Phoenix with some of the other ladies in our chapter. There is a little dissension in our ranks and one person is the troublemaker. Judithmary was a little concerned about what happened and was talking in confidence with me since I have both been in therapy and been on the other side of someone in therapy. It was nice to catch up and I am looking forward to our outing to Fargo's, a Colorado Springs local attraction, a really neat pizza place.
Then I was done with all my errands so I called up hubby and arranged to exchange the car. He drove me home and went back to work to finish his reports. I settled in for a Medium marathon.
Tomorrow I have to get our taxes done so I need to find our 1099s and our w2s. In the morning.
