Blessed Friday!


Today was the day when the amount of daylight is the same amount of time as darkness.  There was also a solar eclipse and a super moon!  I know this because my 8th grade morning announcement crew mentioned it on their broadcast this morning.  My day at work was so very busy.  It went by super fast!  And then I was on my way for a weekend of babysitting my one year old granddaughter Skylar!

I chose to take the back roads to the lake.  As I drove slowly (less than 60 mph) on the single lane highway, behind several different semis with grey skies and brown grass, I reminded myself that I do not like the back roads and to take the main roads where the speed limit is 70 mph and there are at least two lanes!  The only good thing about arriving from the north is I get to travel around the lake for about 10 minutes on my arrival.  I love the lake!

I hadn't seen Skylar since her birthday, nearly a month ago.  She is so darn cute!  Always happy and goes to bed without a whimper.  Cheers to Spring!

5 Days Post Haylee

It has been five days.  The grieving process has begun for myself and many around me.  It's a  beast this thing called grief.  It attaches to or attacks each of us differently.  When my mother lost my sister Barb, she named her grief George.  I think I too will have a name for my grief.  I've been thinking about Clarence.  I always loved the character Clarence Odbody.    He was only doing what was right and tried to have a little fun along the way.  He kept things simple.  I like simple.  I won't mind if Clarence hangs around awhile. "Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives, and when he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?

Responsible

Responsible: having an obligation to do something, or having control over or care for someone, as part of one's job or role. I am responsible for many things whether I am at work or at home.  I don't always like it.  Sometimes, I do not want to be responsible.  I want to slack off or not care or just be the opposite of responsible.

Vaccine Day!

Image
Today I was able to get my 1st dose of the Pfizer - Covid 19 vaccine. Our county vaccinated 8,000 teachers in two days! It was very well run. I was in and out in less than 30 minutes including the 15 minute wait afterwards. It's been about five hours since and my arm is a bit sore now. I can't remember the last time I got a vaccine. Probably a tetnus shot. --- Those really hurt. Anyway, I'm glad to do my part to get this pandemic under control. As I look at my calorie tracker for the day: 1750 calories food and 59 oz. water.
