I have been feeling somewhat sad today. We put the flags out this morning and I keep remembering that awful day eleven years ago. We have come far but there is still that nagggin sense of doom.
I went to Bunco last night and my friend from the band came over. She is such a sweetheart and a good friend. I don't know how I ever thank my lovely friends and neighbors. It was a good time and particularly welcome this month for some reason.
We have had a couple of bad nights in the last few days. A few nights ago Cowboy got up and put on his pants, nothing else, and was wandering around and went to the front door. I woke up about then and asked him what he was doing. He said there was someone at the door. It was 3AM. It took some doing to let him know he was mistaken. He was quite sure we needed to respond.
Last night he was thrashing about and pumping his legs furiously. Never woke up , never said anything, but he must have been having some kind of dream. I had a hard time going back to sleep.
I took Cowboy for a haircut this morning and then to IHOP. I had planned on taking him to WalMart for a few minutes but he wanted to come home. But before that he was insisting we needed to get to the dentist before we were late. His dentist appointment is for Thursday.
So home we came. A little later I suggested we put the top down on the convertible and go for a drive. It is a beautiful day and at that time was about 78 degrees. He liked that idea so we got out for a bit. He seemed to enjoy himself.
