This morning, I was up and ready to get moving. I had plans to go walking, clean the kitty litter, clean the kitchen, and do laundry. At the same time work on my Christmas beading project.
Well, Heck No! That wasn't what the universe had planned for me! Instead, I got laundry going. Then was ready to go clean the cat box when I got my phone call from my cousin.
Which turned out to be 3 hours of genealogy time. MATHESON family is HUGE!! I must have entered 200 names with him on the phone. BUT WAIT! There's more - every time we were interrupted with "this may be monitored or recorded," as well as every so many minutes we were disconnected, and he had to call back. How many times you ask? - Well, how about 7 times. By the time we finished - and trust me - he wasn't finished, but I was. He called me back and I told him I had to go. Which I did, because Debbie called and asked if I wanted to go to Dutch Brothers to get some tea. I said sure, but my cousin is calling and I would call her back when I'm ready. That was about another 1 hour. I called her and said, "Okay, come get me." She laughed and said she was on her way. I asked if she was going, and she said she was coming back. I tried to tell her not to worry but she told me she needed to have company and was coming to get me.
Long story short, we went to Dutch Brothers, got Patrick a drink too. Then came home. I got the new padlocks on the boxes she had and gave her 2 keys for the 2 padlocks. Patrick had to cut the old ones off because we didn't have keys for them. Now the boxes can be put out for donations.
After she left with 2 cards to be signed, I went back to the computer and tried to work on where I left off with Bryan. I did add more names to his part where he left off. Now I just need to print out a new list for him to look over.
Had supper and then sat to play games. I'm beat! As for best laid plans, that didn't happen. I did get the cat box done between the phone calls with Bryan. Other than that, not so much. Okay, so I wasn't broken up about it, but I know I need to do it tomorrow. Will it happen? The way my luck goes, probably not, but I'm going to try - yet again! Which means there was no way I could be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
