Happy Memorial Day.
As of last night, today’s agenda consisted of:
- Get up around 8 or 9
- Head to Greensboro for a little shopping
- Visit
, Don and family for a birthday party for Thomas (their son) - Drive to Raleigh to pick up the ‘rents from the airport
- Dinner with family
- Home
- Open-ended evening, for spending time with the family unit.
That sounds pretty decent, doesn’t it? I mean, it covers a lot of bases, but leaves a fulfilled feeling at the end of the day.
Right?
Well, here’s the way the day really went:
- Slept in until 11:00
- Woke up with what I suspect was a lack-of-caffeination headache.
- Skipped the Greensboro trip
- Visited
, Don and family for a birthday party for Thomas (As if I was going to miss this) - Drove to Raleigh to pick up the ‘rents. I called Sib2, to verify the directions… she asked “You’re going to pick them up?! I was getting ready to go get them.” Turns out there had been many crossed wires on this one.
and I wound up going to get them. - Headed to Sib2’s to finalize dinner plans.
- Dinner at Mellow Mushroom, accompanied by a pint o’ Guinness.
- Home.
- Visited an aunt. Short visit turned into nearly an hour-long one.
- Home again. (Jiggety-jig.)
- Drove to Raleigh to pick up the ‘rents. I called Sib2, to verify the directions… she asked “You’re going to pick them up?! I was getting ready to go get them.” Turns out there had been many crossed wires on this one.
While we didn’t do exactly what we set out to do, it was an equally – if not more – fulfilling day.
Tomorrow: Three airports. Two planes. One Zion Curtain.
Namaste.
