I need to apologize for yesterday. I cut short the blog because I failed to finish it. And I wanted to attempt Tuesday, so I published what I had. Don’t hate me. Maybe today is a makeup game of sorts. Or not.
Today is a special day. The annual slurry seal of neighborhood streets for our driving enjoyment. So I had to get out to the car and move it somewhere I could drive it from. I had to get out early. Emily set the alarm for 545, ouch, and just figured she would leave an hour early for work. That’s some fancy figuring cuz I don’t want to get up early at all. But I have to in order to get her breakfast and lunch done by the time she leaves. Even the dogs had a hard time getting up at the crack of too damn early.
Well I did manage to get all the usual crap done. And I had to drive a block and a half to find a legal parking space that got me out in spite of the slurry.
I dragged around the house till 10 before I left. Not sure what I was doing but it some serious time. Amazingly enough. Tomorrow I am up early enough to leave by 730. Going to Auburn to look at more houses. One of these days we might find one we like.
I went to work thinking I had nothing to do. Which turned out to be untrue. By nothing, I mean nothing scheduled. Got a text while in route reminding me about a one pm appointment with someone I don’t know. Was not in my book. I figured what the hell, I will be there at one anyway. Will find out then.
Got to work and jumped into the usual shit I do every day. My desk is really almost cleaned off. Work done. Paper filed. When that’s done I may have a serious amount of time free.
My one showed. Oh yeah, Joe my RE brokers neighbor. I know him. And his girlfriend Gail whom I met 20+ years ago. I really know her. And her kids. And ex. So I guess I take back what I said. We had a nice chat about tax things for an hour and they went on their way. Worked perfectly. One hour.
Really no plans now. I know you’ve heard it before, emails, calls, texts, letters and a couple tax returns for my race car tech. In his honor I spent a half hour on the internet in search of the perfect supercharger. I consider that half hour the best one of the day.
Emily called at 430, going to yoga. I told her I was going home at 6. Had to be in Dixon at about 7 so why leave early and wait.
I killed time processing more paper till 555 and left. Nice ride home, no real traffic. Hit Fixon at 645. Tonthe carniceria for taco Tuesday. Hey, it is to important. Had a chance to speak to the owner, Eduardo, and we compared our vacations. He is a pro but mine beat his for a change. Of course he goes on some form of vacay every month. Wow.
We got home at exactly the same time. Got the mail. Fed the damn animals. And finally got our dinner. I wait an entire week for Tuesday and I want it now. Or not.
After dinner we went to the pet store, no pets, to get my Cocker his prescription dog food. It’s over priced but keeps him alive. That’s good, right? Well we got it.
We are watching bad TV now. A common thing for our evenings. We don’t bother with the no cable options. Too much trouble. So bad TV wins. Again
Soon, bedtime.
