Well OK - now it's Monday and I'm sort of a day late and a dollar short. I guess I ran errands and dealt with meds - oh and got blood work done - the first days of last week. Thursday is clean the house day at Dave and Dian's and I'm in charge of dusting. Oh - and the coerced me into cooking the entire dinner. And I succeeded! Grilled pork chops, sauteed red potatoes, a salad, asparagus and applesauce. Got it all on the table hot and at the same time. Even got the chops right - and over charcoal no less!
Left Friday AM to go up to LA. Met Mike (possible new whatever) for lunch then to my brother's. Took a mammoth walk Friday night - over 2 miles up and down Topanga Canyon side roads - yikes - and one of the guys was 6'3" and I could barely keep up. Saturday three of us went to the big Pomona RV show - it was probably 1/2 the size of past years - and the vendor's tent was maybe 1/2 full. Quite sad. I liked the Airstreams, and the Rexhalls, and I suppose the new Nu-Wa's.
Yesterday I left Topanga, met a bunch of Morgan friends who were having a car rally to a winery outside of LA (yes, I own a Morgan - a car, not a horse). Saw friends from 40 years ago - that was lots of fun! Then drove to Vacaville, my first ex' house - stopping to see a friend from kindergarten on the way.
I'm sort of hanging out today - last year's bf Dale is on his way down from Bend. Tomorrow we go get a car dolly from UHaul and head down to Felton (out of Santa Cruz) to find my Morgan. Dreamed last night it was also missing it's dash & I was just going to part it out. I guess I'll know tomorrow when I finally see it for the first time in 8 years! Yes - it's a long saga of paying someone to do work and having both the car and the money be the victim of a poor young man with HUGE substance issues - it's kind of like the movie - Leaving Las Vegas. But - so it goes.
Wednesday - if all goes well tomorrow - I will be driving back to Escondido - maybe stopping to see Mike - and then Thursday I guess dusting - and Friday - who knows?! Oh - I know - I'm supposed to go to a Morgan club board meeting on Friday - yikes! It's back in LA and I'm not sure my gas money is going to hold out - although - perk of all perks - the wonderful friends I'm living with are also loaning me their BMW 535i! So - I'm actually driving something that is not only fun, but more economical than my truck!
See - Sheila and I may have to share the 'busiest' prize! AND my disability attorney's office just called - and acted as if they wanted to do something. I told them I'd been in touch with my senator's office - they have frankly been useless and yes, I'll be paying them $5400 when I get approved - and they will have done NOTHING - but gee, they called! A $5400 phone call! Makes me laugh. Otherwise I'd just cry - ya know? :)
