Thursday, September 22

Some days are better than most and then there are those days that you wish you could avoid.  Today was one of those.

We had a 9AM appointment for Cowboy to have his eye checked.  The surgery went just fine yesterday.  I set the alarm for 6:30 and when I get up the first thing that happens is I step into a pile of dog poop.  It seems our little dog had a tummy ache last night and by the time I stepped in it it was all over my foot.  Quick shower and then cleaned up the mess.

Cowboy gets to have breakfast and coffee this mornign before we head out on our appointment.  It takes about 40 minutes to reach the clinic and about 10 minutes into the drive he has a tummy ache and soils his clothes.  What did those two eat yesterday?!

Back home, shower for Cowboy, calls to the clinic letting them know we will be late.  The appointment goes fine.  I had called Marsha and let her know to come at 11 rather than 10 and then I took off for the base for errands and shopping.  I usually go on Wednesdays but it was changed because of Cowboy's surgery.  Well, it seems they let the troops off at 3PM on Thursdays and I was leaving the post after my shopping at exactly the same time as maybe 40,000 soldiers.  Not all from the same gate, of course, but it was a challenge getting home by 4.

After getting home, I had to put away about a million grocery items and then fix dinner.

It is only 8 but I am pooped and am going to bed to read.  Cowboy just went to bed so everyone is tucked in.
