Well the year isn’t wrapping up quite as we had planned. I have all kinds of issues at work and have about 10 hours to fix them, Lori is having problems getting her wacko ex-employee’s old emails to find out what she did and didn’t do, (she didn’t do much!) her arm is killing her so bad she thinks she might have torn it again, I’ve had a headache since yesterday morning related to my neck from sleeping funny or working out and we both need to figure out how to maybe go out of town at the same time next week. Lori also needs to finish over 20 surgery set ups and interview a bunch of people next week to fill the position she’s been handling. She has to get this done before her Doc comes back a week from Monday. Not sure how she’ll get all that done, especially if she’s gone.
I was supposed to go out of town next week and if I don’t get the orders I need to today, could fly out as early as Monday. Lori is trying to figure out how to go see Dixie to find someone to come in and help her out but we don’t know how that’ll happen if I’m gone, and there’s a big snowstorm coming in next week. Throw in Mojo running down the stairs this morning and having his legs slide out from under him and then letting out a big yelp (hope he didn’t tear anything) and we’re having a great two days. We both want to crawl back in bed and just stay there for a week as we really didn’t have much of a break over break. Wish we could just get a break!
Yesterday Lori, Jag and I did make it to Denver where my Mom surprised me with a great birthday present and before that we managed to get Jag some new shoes and clothes and Lori a much needed pair of shoes. Dixie also sent me a card with a present, thank you. I returned some jeans I had shipped to me a few months ago but never took back. I also bought myself a short sleeve golf shirt at Nordstroms as the one I was wearing had a button break earlier in the day. Lori told me to just throw away my old shirt as it was a white shirt that wasn’t white anymore. To be fair, I did have it for 20 years. I didn’t know that was a long time to have a shirt, ha. We also went to a record shop called Wax Trax that’s been around since I was a kid. We bought some old Elvis records for a friend of Jag’s who has a birthday coming up in a week and she loves Elvis. It was really fun to be in an actual record store again, especially this one as I used to hang out there 40 or 45 years ago. There’s a big resurgence in actual vinyl records again which is pretty cool.
We made it home by about 6pm and thankfully had a pork roast in the crock pot. We forgot to put it in the fridge last night though so it sat out all night, ugh. Not sure if it’s any good anymore. We were just too tired and forgot.
Guess I’d better run, Ty has a dentist appointment at 9 and Lori I think needs to work today and over the weekend and I have a bunch of things that fell apart yesterday afternoon that I have to try to figure out how to put back together again. Not sure I can do it but I need to keep trying. Lori is still not driving so I need to drive her to work. She thinks she can drive with one arm and one in a sling but shouldn’t. Oh well, it is what it is, right? God Bless.
