Had hoped to sleep in til at least 8:00 this morning. But to no avail. The son left for school, and he know sooner got out the door and the phone rang. It was the son, and he firmly said "You know, you might want to get on that ice on the sidewalk. I just fell." Calmly I replied, thank you, and I'll do that. That's not what I wanted to say. Thank goodness I was in shock, othewise, he might have gotten a little bit of a lecture. Like, maybe if I didn't have to run around driving to soccer stuff, I'd have time to get that ice removed. Or this is a good one. Maybe if you worked on it on Sunday, instead of playing PS3 on your study breaks. But no, I just climbed back into bed, pulled the covers over my head, and quietly giggled to myself. Obviously he wasn't hurt too bad, because he didn't come back in the house, so I automatically went into visual mode and could just see him wiping out. Not nice, I know, but that's what came to mind.
At least it got warmer this afternoon and I was able to "get to" some of that ice. I know it would be much easier putting salt on it, but that just doesn't seem right. The ice builds up when the street plowers come by and all the snow blocks any drainage. Complaining - no, cause I appreciate have the streets plowed and every now and then the sidewalks too. I'll get on that ice tomorrow!!!!
Poem: This was written and put into Bill's birthday care in 1994. So the son would have been 1 1/2 and the daughter 5.
Happy Birthday Dear Father.
This song was for free.
We hope you enjoy it.
It’s from Patrick and me.
Now you call me Goobie.
Hey thats not so bad
I feel very lucky.
That you are my Dad.
Sung to “On Top of Old Smokey”
BODY: Got in over 11,000 steps today and lots of running around at soccer volunteering. It was fun seeing the kids again. There was a little boy who is not quite 3. And before the winter break, he would not leave his mom or dad and never joined the group. Well today, not only did he leave mom and dad, he stayed with the group, played with the kids and interracted with the trainers. I couldn't believe the transformation. Either could him parents.
MIND: Loiuse Hay "My intuition is always on my side. I trust it to be there at all times." You'd be surprised how often this proves to be true. And this affirmation is dedicated to Robin. She'll know why
Good night for sure (hey it's before 11:00 pm)
