Friday, December 16

Fridays are trash day.  We put it on the curb for the pickup.  There is a tub for recyclables that is sorted by the company that does the pickup.  I got up this morning about 7:30 to find Cowboy already up and dressed in his jeans and the paper in and the trash out.  When I took some more out I found that there were newspapers blown from our house for about a block.  They were everywhere.  It did not occur to him that if you put a lot of newspapers on top and there is a breeze, they are going to blow out of the tub.

It was about 45 degrees outside and my hair was wet but  I took off and gathered up as much of the mess as I could.  When I came in and told him he just laughed.  I could have smacked him but what are you going to do?

I had three hours today while Marsha was here but felt tired and not much in the mood to do anything.  I went and bought our tax software and went to the grocery store.   Laid down this afternoon for a bit.

Nice quiet weekend coming up.  Just need to get Cowboy bathed and medicine applied, etc and then can relax.  He ate well tonight.  I had bought a rotisserie chicken and made some dressing and sweet potatoes. 

Lots of Christmas cards coming in.  I really enjoy getting them.  I read some of the notes to him but he doesn't seem very engaged.  Not sure he remembers some of the folks we have heard from.
