We had some errands to run on Monday. We wanted to stop at a new store, Gabriel Brothers, to see what it was like and also Bed, Bath and Beyond to buy a shower gift for Vicki. Then we stopped by Karen's to drop off the gift and to pick up some mail that had been forwarded to us from home. It's a good thing we have "Help" on both ends to keep our affairs in order.
Then we went to Sharon's to have dinner with her, Jim, Brad, Nicole and baby Noah. We always have a very enjoyable time with Sharon and Jim and Monday was no different. It was around midnight before we started back home.
I have been sleeping so good while here. I think it is because my head is not full of things I need to do. Tuesday was just such a morning and we didn't even walk out of the trailer until 4 pm. We decided to take a ride to the casino since that appeared to be the only chance we would have. We stayed about 2.5 hours and eventually left after making our annual contribution to the Lawrenceburg cause.
Today Ted took me to Karen's to do laundry. While I was there, he went to the grocery because we are having Jim and Sharon over tomorrow night for dinner. I also have a lunch date with Donna and Donna at noon. That's right, all of us are named Donna and attended K-12 together. I went on to work at Procter & Gamble with one of the two Donnas.
We have plans for Friday with Karen and Bill, friends going back to 1963 when I started at P&G with Karen. And Dan is coming in from Celina to spend the day with us on Saturday. Then we'll leave early Sunday for my flight to Florida. I'm not sure what Ted will do to fill his time while I'm gone but this is the best place for him to be alone since he knows the area and lots of people. I'm sure he'll be fine.
Language has created the word 'loneliness' to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word 'solitude' to express the glory of being alone. ~ Paul Tillich
