Yesterday, Tuesday, proved to rival Monday. It started out at six a.m.with my cell phone waking me up with the sound of a text message being sent to me. I looked at it and it was Desi who was at the airport leaving for his trip. He said a few nice things and I sent him a reply.
Since I was awake I got up and got myself ready for the day. I had a call from my friend who had items to give me for the Veterans the night before. I called her at 8:00 a.m. and woke her up. She always got up early and I always slept in, we have changed our schedules to be exactly opposite.
I made arrangements to drive to her house around 9:30 a.m. to pick the items up to deliver to the man that collects these things to be delivered to the homeless Vets. I then drove to a restaurant to see the owner and give him paperwork on the charity I'm working on. I'm after him to donate some dinners and place an ad in the brochure. After the meeting with him I segued to a craft store. I'm doing center pieces for the fashion show that is being held this year and the State dinner that will be in April.
I found the things I needed to do the centerpiece prototypes, then drove home. By this time it was the middle of the afternoon and I decided I better rest up before going to pack the items for the Vets in Afghanistan in the early evening. I arrived at the club, went back to pack boxes and then ordered dinner. After the dinner I went to the meeting that was being held. I usually don't stay for the meeting since it goes until 9:30 or later. I left after the meeting and decided to stop at the restaurant I had been to in the morning to see if the owner was there so I could talk to him again.
I walked in the place and outside on the patio, which is positioned as you enter, was a group of people I knew. I told them I couldn't have an affair if I tried, everywhere I go I run into people that I know. I sat at the bar and said hello to the young girls that work there. There was a man sitting next to me that was, per his statement, a lawyer. He had just feted his daughter and grand daughter and decided it was to early to stay home an came out for a drink.
I had one drink, on me, since the owner wasn't there to talk to, got up to leave when I finished it. The lawyer handed me his card and said, " give me a call." Right, I'll do that, when hell freezes over. Good grief it is always raining men.
So today I'm home most of the day and then tonight I'm taking my step-grand daughter to dinner.
Have a good one!
