Rain, no rain, rain, rain....

Although it's been the whole weekend since I've written my blog, not that much has happened.  It's really just been day after rainy day - with a mostly sunny Saturday! - and my pute "grew" a poltergeist or something the one night I did get on to do what needed to be done.  It jumped from one page to another, and wouldn't load other pages.  It was strange, so I gave up.


4/17
I went down the road, got gasoline, then had my meal at Bob Evans before doing my grocery shopping, and forgot all about going to Walgreen's for my prescription, which I should have done first.  Off to a great start...

Got back home, got everything carried in, and then Ron texted me that they was on their way home.  Of course!  I didn't walk out to meet them since it was raining, but since I got my WalMart Walk in today, I thought I did okay in the exercise department.
Corgan and I had a little spat not long after they got here, which is not uncommon, and we didn't have too much to do with each other the rest of the night - until I went outside and built a fire in the firepit, then Corgan decided to come out and join me.  All was okay then!  Kids...
We had a good time sitting outside and enjoying the fire.  Ron slept through it all, poor guy.


4/18
Ron and Corgan got up and started working on the lawn mower, as planned.  I got up, did my Wii weigh-in (I lost another half pound! Yay!), got fancied up and went up to church for a funeral luncheon, as planned.  But when I got up there, there were plenty of other workers, so I came back home.  There wasn't anything planned for the day, since we both had those other things going on, so it was a rather unexpected thing.  Once Josh texted and asked if we wanted to go to Chilo Park for supper tonight, though, it became a different story.  For me, anyway - Ron just kept working on the lawn mower, which he got fixed!  Yay!
I had to assess what food we had that could be taken on a picnic supper and then make up to take on said picnic supper.  I had bought a few - not many - veggies, so that Ron and I could start having veggies for snacks, and I decided to clean and chop them to take, which I did.  That was about all I could come up with here at home, but Ron stopped and got some munchies, too, so we had a decent donation to supper.
I got down to Chilo Park first - Ron and Corgan were on the motorcycle - and as I was unloading the bin, I made a misstep and wrenched my back.  I didn't think too much of it at the time, it was just a "oooh" and go on type of thing.  We talked about walking, but decided not to - Chelle is fighting an earache and wasn't really feeling well, and Ron and I just didn't want to - and when I went to get up from the picnic table, my back let me know all about that little misstep!  Instead of "oooh," now it was "OOOOOOOHH!!"  I came back home, settled into my recliner, and stayed there for a few hours.  I did try to get on the pute but that was the night it was possessed and I didn't stay on very long.


4/19
Sunday.  Church and lunch.  Nice easy day, right?  Nope, not today!  Today after church, for our lunch, we are going to our friends' house for lunch, which means not just lunch, but lunch and visiting and playing dominoes - hours of fun!  A good way to spend a rainy Spring day.
Ron and I go to the store and get our 'donation' to the afternoon - a bag of ice and a couple (okay, four) bags of munchies - and head on over.  I meant to take some drugs (ALEVE, people) on the way, but I forgot, so I had to take some later on during the afternoon because my back still wasn't happy with me.  Oh, it was. not. happy. with me at all.
The afternoon went as we expected, and we had a very nice time and didn't get home until around 7:00, and, yes, it made for a very long day.  Ron and I both fell asleep in front of the TV!  I was lying on the floor in the living room, just because that felt better on my back.  It kinda scared Ron when he woke up and I was on the floor, but I thought he had seen me getting onto the floor - it wasn't exactly a small endeavor - but I guess not.  He woke me up shaking my shoulder, and then I couldn't get back to sleep after he went on to bed.


4/20
Today I have to run back to Walgreen's for the prescription that I forgot to pick up on Friday - I took the last of the one I have now, so no more putting it off.  Blah.  I don't wanna!  I don't wanna drive down 125!  Especially not in the rain...
I call my friend Bert to see if she'd like to go with me (and we can have a nice long lunch together), but she is on the phone with our friend Teresa, plus her house is like Grand Central Station with all the goings-on with her sister and the happenings with the settling of her house catastrophe, so she declines.  I stop at Gold Star to have my lunch, and sit there reading for a long time before finally driving down 125.
I went to Walgreen's and got my prescription, then headed for home.  Well, lo and behold, don't you know - now I have to make a pit stop!  I stop at WalMart, and while there, go ahead and get the makings for salads so that Ron and I can start eating big ol' salads for our suppers.  We have to get back on track somehow!
I stopped at Bert's on my way home, and that's where I was (still) when Ron texted that he was on his way home.  He beat me home.  He was glad to see the salad makings, too - he's the one that's been saying we've got to start eating salads again.  I think I like food too much!  I know that I need to, but - food is just too good.

We watched Starsky and Hutch while eating supper, then turned on dead guys, and that was our night.

Nothing planned for tomorrow - just playing Happy Homemaker.  Whee!
