yay!
wifi
i'm at chloe's watching jordan and blogging on mo's laptop
it's been a long time
19 days
i left work on saturday knowing that i don't have to go back till 01/02/10
i've really been looking forward to this
lot's of stuff has happened but i can't remember most of it right now
chloe and jeff gave me an early christmas present
a burgandy walker with handbrakes and a seat
it has a basket that goes under the seat but i haven't been putting it on because it interferes with folding it up
i really like it
now i can mingle with people at social occasions instead of having to sit in a corner by myself
i can go shopping with faith
what else has happened
i sang the song i wrote at the cr big meeting on 12/04/09
it went well
julie thought it was awesome
oh
pastor stan has referred another person to me
i've talked with the guy about cr and jack's program
jack has said that he'd be happy to drive him to a meeting sometime
jordan and i are going to be leaving soon
i have to go to the bank to cash a check
then i pick up faith and we go to get jim to take him to lunch
after lunch we'll go to the local nursing home to visit jim's grandmother
then back to chloe's till either jeff or chloe come home
well
i'm tired of typing now
God bless

signing off
bye for now

so
somonauk library
blogging
yesterday was a good day
went to men's small group at panera at 7a
took bill with me
another new guy showed up
ken - a pcc member
got home at 9a
faith was at school
she went back to work yesterday
she missed monday because of bursitis/arthritis (????) in her right hip
doctor gave her a prescription for celebrex
is that safe to take these days
anyway she felt better yesterday and went to school
i listened to the 1st 2 discs of the girl who played with fire
i think this is the way to do it
read the book
then
a week to a week-and-a-half later listen to the cds
when faith got home we just hung out
at 5:30 we started watching the news and then stayed tuned in for the president's announcement about afganistan
he compromised
send more in the pull out
then the biggest loser came on and we're totally hooked on that show
then to bed
actually faith went to bed after the first hour
i stayed up to see the marathon and the weigh in
this morning i drove faith to school
then i went to the bank and the gas station
then i went home and got skippy and drove to jewel
i used the last of the gift card i'd gotten from work (+ $3) to buy 3 bags of candy to take in tonight
to reward skippy for behaving so well i took him to the park for about 15 minutes before going home
i listened to discs 3 and 4
then i had something to eat and went to pick faith up
we came straight here
i have chess at dummer at 3p
then
go straight to work from there
that's it
you're up to date
God bless
