Tuesday, April 21, 2015

     Today was an association day.  I started my day getting up at 730am, going across the street to feed and water the dogs, feed the birds and squirrels.  At least I think I fed the birds and squirrels, I will have to count the empty bags tomorrow morning to see if I forgot to do it.  I was in a bit of a hurry as I needed to get back to my house and take a shower in order to take hubby to work so I could have the car.  I had therapy at 10am and hubby was supposed to be at work by 9.  But we were running a little late so didn't get hubby dropped off until just after 930 and then I got back to my therapy session a couple of minutes before 10.  Yeah!
     Steve, my therapist, and I talked about Cassie's wedding, the plans she has made, the wedding planner and where she has the wedding set up for now.  How hubby is doing the invitations and I offered to address all of them and send them out for her, if she has time to get me the addresses.  We talked about how that even now sometimes I still feel like I am in competition with Cassie's dad and sometimes in competition with her soon to be mother in law.  Sometimes I am jealous that Cassie is so close with Becky, they live in the same house and Cassie loves her.  I wish Cassie and I could have a close relationship like that but then Steve and I talked about how Cassie and I talk quite often and she has listened to me and taken some of my advice.  Cassie and I are closer than we have ever been.  As for feeling like I am in competition with other parts of Cassie's life, that simply is not true.  Cassie has enough room in her heart for all of us.
     After I was done with therapy, I headed home because I left my phone there and needed it for later in the day to call hubby later and let him know when I was going to change the car with him.  Then I ate lunch and went over to Judithmary's.
     Judithmary is my Red Hat Queen and I made arrangements to go over to her house.  She wanted to get my opinion on some things, learn a little more about me.  And she wanted to show me the Red Hat dolls she had made.  She had also bid and won several dolls on eBay, but was disappointed in one that was supposed to be a grandma doll and it turned out to be a grandpa doll.  So Judithmary found this doll maker, Sue, who had a company called A Doll Affair that she ran out of her house and invited me to come along.  We took a couple of the disappointing dolls with us to see what Sue could do to make them better.
     We had a nice visit with Sue, saw some of the dolls she had made and she inspected the dolls Judithmary had and said she would be able to get some parts, feet for her dolls and a new body for the grandpa doll to make a grandma doll.  She would be able to get Judithmary information on a wig for it too.
     I exchanged the car with hubby and he dropped me off at home then returned to work.  I sat with the dogs for a little while then went to take the neighbor's dogs on a walk and feed them dinner.  I spent a couple of hours with them, they are relaxing nicely now and getting used to me.  I took them for a walk by myself and we walked for about 25 minutes.  This makes the 3rd day in a row that I have been walking and it feels good.  Tiring, exhausting but good.
