Nothing New Today in meh...

There was a three day weekend due to the Memorial Day holiday. I noticed that the war museum was open. I caught it open once and took a lot of pictures. The history was wonderful, not the war.

I round trip traveled to take my grandson to his mother. It was only round trip because he didn’t want me to leave him. He was all, “I want my Gaddah…” and was about to cry. I let him stay with me a little longer than planned which was only an extra day. I had him on Friday evening until yesterday. We met my daughter at her bus stop and I made the mistake of saying I will see him later. Not a good idea. SO that made me ride that long distance to where she worked. I stopped at the gas station to pick him up some stuff. Grapes, muffin, juice, a hot dog and something else, but he didn’t want the hot dog. So I rode the bus back to where I started and got home at after 5pm. Did I mention I left the house at 11:15am? Riiiight.

We also went to a carnival on the mall parking lot. Apparently there is a deal where they do this every year. Took the son and the grandboy and they had fun. Even won some stuffed animals.

This coming weekend, there is a spring festival type deal occuring at my mom’s nursing home. I’m going to rent a car and make my travel easy. After my mom’s we most likely go home and then head out to the festival where I work. Last time we had this particular festival, Him came along and took me and the kids. By the end of the night, everyone was mad, but him. He kept ragging on my daughter, but he is like me where we just have jokes. She is one of those people who can’t take what she dishes. He spoke to my son in a way that pissed me off, so I knew then we couldn’t make it. LOL He later had the nerve to tell me that he really had a great time with me and the kids. He said it with such a seriousness that I thought he was going to propose or something. We see how that worked out. LOL

ANYway…

I invited my daughter to go and my son’s bff. Try to get them some time together before he ships off to California or Texas. My son and his bff that is. Other than that, life is what it is.

I’m going to see Flo’etry for my birthday weekend kick off. Saturday I don’t know what I’m going to do. And Sunday who knows? My birthday is on Monday and I’m trying to think if I want to be off work or not. I don’t see me celebrating much. Father’s Day is that same Sunday. I think maybe I’ll rent another car and do a day trip with my boys. I don’t know. I will see. I’m tired of having parties doing what other people want to do. I want to do what I want to do. I want others that will enjoy it because it’s no fun alone. But that’s how it ends up most times.

At any rate, my new job duties have yet to kick in I guess. I’ve been passing along all of my former department work along to my former workmate. She came to see me this morning and gave me a hug. It’s been crazy, this transition.

I’ve been reading this book, The Martian by Andy Weir. Makes me wonder if I could survive using my intellect and survival instinct. I probably could. I’m not a person that looks to replace things that are broken when they break. I find some way to rig them or find a way to keep it working until it just says “Fuck it!! I give up!!” That’s why I had a vcr for so long. I didn’t have a flat screen tv until my mom gave me her old one. I don’t believe I HAVE to keep up with the new gadgets only because I know what I can afford and quite frankly, I don’t believe in accumulating stuff and have it be a status symbol. I’m too grown for that. Things are nice, but not a must.

Okay so that’s all I have to say. I think.
Laters…

Repectfully yours,
Sister
