Monday has started out pretty good. I connected with an old friend and met a new one. All at the Dr.'s office. It is quite entertaining to see how a person interacts with a family member, when that is a new side to them that you haven't seen before. My friend Lorri had taken her mom up to the Dr.'s office. Her mom is kinda like my mom. Has a lot to share! Also I met the Dr.'s nurse, who come to find out lives on top of the hill from where we are building our house. Nice lady, nice to know she is there when Mike and I eventually have our heart attacks, lol. She scared the crap out of me, I need to take my heart health much more serious. I want to live quite a few more years.
I was up late last night and ordered a beautiful crocheted baby blanket off Etsy for the granddaughter of some friends of ours. Hope to take it Labor Day to the Lake and deliver it. Hope they like it! Going to go stain some trim now, got cabin laundry done to the point that I have rugs and a few towels left.
I spent hours, yes, hours, staining wood trim today. That give a person lots of time to think. I thought about the behavior of some athletes that I saw compete last night in the Olympics. One person, an American vaulter, fell on her butt last night. And yet she showed the most emotion I have witnessed out of her, when she did NOT win the Gold medal. Hello! What planet are you from? You fell on your butt! And still you hoped for the gold? Get real.
The other was the men's sprint race (100 m). These guys are the racehorses of track and field. And apparently as high spirited as a fractious horse. I am sorry, but these are professional athletes. They SHOULD be role models. The winner,a guy from Jamacia named Bolt, was acting out and generally being an idiot making faces and showing goofy hand signs... I was appalled that a man could act so stupid. Of course, being a sportsman would just be too perfect. We need more thletes to act like sportsmen.
Sometimes you just never know what you will be thinking about during the course of a day.
