I Didn't Blog Today
That was the thought I had at 7:03PM. Yes, I made my way to a body of water (one of my holiday goals), and yes, I read some fiction today (another goal), but my travel preparations for my departure tomorrow morning have kept me doing other things today besides blogging.
I did my laundry, including the bed sheets - because you always want to come home to clean bed sheets. I cleaned the finch cage, I vacuumed downstairs (while upstairs waits for me to finish this so-called blog entry) and I prepped my car so my friend can drive it while I away with the rental. Oh yeah, I also updated my iPod for the drive, because every now and then I might want to listen to some new tunes. (SO important, eh?)
There were other things that transpired today, including an update from my sister RE: my dad. Like, that he tried to strangle a nurse today at his new nursing home so they sent him back to the hospital for a dementia evaluation. Fun stuff like that! (Sarcasm.)
Seriously. I don't know what to expect when I arrive. The escapades don't sound like something my dad would do and I keep insisting that his meds are off or something else is going on. Which is why I won't know until I get there and see things first hand.
Maybe that's why I didn't blog today. Perhaps subconsciously I didn't want to write about my dad's woes again like I did yesterday. And yet, here I am.
So let me end on a positive note. I just had coffee with one of my spiritual sons and got to cuddle with my new grand-baby that just turned 1 month and 1 week today! The circle of life. How profound.
