Excuuuuuse Me

I really thought I had posted on Saturday, and was surprised just now to see that I didn't. The memory is going, going.

As is the hearing, since I had to take my hearing aids in for repair. A little piece chipped off the left one, and since that was going in, and my warranty expires next month, I asked them to take apart the right one and get rid of the battery that got stuck in there some months back and that rattles around a little when I bend my head down. They'll also let me know about extending the warranty, because anything that costs that much ought to last more than two years, and I know they'll die the day after the warranty expires, and new hearing aids aren't in my budget at the moment.

So my world is a little quieter for the next week or so. Too bad there's a retirees' dinner on Thursday; I guess I'll just listen to whomever is sitting next to me.

We had some nasty cold rain yesterday, but today is surprisingly pleasant. (It was supposed to rain all week.) You just don't want to leave the house in that kind of weather.

The Sibs is coming home from California late tonight, yay! We should be able to go book the Disney trip Friday afternoon, or Saturday. The dates are all worked out, since it turns out that the Sibs' commitment and the Cousin's are both at the same time, so that leaves a a good week to work with. Even so, I won't believe it until I see it. I won't even start to pack until I know that we're really going, and that's taking will power.

I did remember to jot down three smiley things today, which follow, along with a picture. That little signature area down there is getting to be longer than my actual entries.



Seeing Mary and Sue (two teachers), who are buddies, greet each other in the morning, which made me think of E and the Chum, and I smiled, remembering, instead of being bummed because my besties aren't here anymore.
I came into the library from the hallway and saw the line-up of kid-friendly books on top of the first bookstack.

Leaning over to put something away at the side of my desk, my face came right up close to the picture of my parents I have framed there.
