A Nothing Day To A Busy Day

This morning, I thought my day would be just relaxing before the rest of the week got busy. No such luck. I was eating breakfast, when mom called to say she couldn't hear out of her right ear. The hearing aid wasn't working. She was in a panic and needed to get to Costco. I told her I would call her back. I was going to go to Debbie's to get the information for brother Patrick. She was having someone come at 1:30 pm, so I would have to work around that. Patrick called when I sent the message to him about needing to go to Costco. 

I ended up getting in the car, going to moms, and then taking her to Olympia where Costco is. We were able to get in a good spot for her, so she didn't have to walk too far. We went to the counter for her hearing aids. They took both aids and said it would be about 15 mins. Mom wanted to get peanuts since the peanuts and peanut butter is going to go up in price due to the southern states losing their crops this year. After 15 mins, I went to the counter and was told her piece wasn't working and they went to replace it. There was a hairline factor in the casing and when they tried, the casing broke. So, they gave her a temporary one and said they could order the casing, or she can schedule a hair test for a new set. Since they are 4 years old and she already replaced the left ear one, she decided she better just get another new pair. So, she's scheduled to take the test on Saturday. 

As we were leaving, Debbie said she was home. I told her I forgot the thumb drive and was at Costco. Since it would be 1:30 pm by the time I got home, I told her to let me know when it was free to come over. 

I did get home at 1:30 pm and ended up cleaning up a bit. I had stuff on the table that needed put away. I have paperwork that needed done. I reimbursed Patrick for office supplies and then I sat down to play my games. Debbie texted she was free. 

I headed over to Debbie's about 2:45 pm. I got the information I needed for her. Then I came home to fix supper and work on the thumb drive for Patrick. I realized I had to print out some forms for him and then scan them. That would take forever since I have 60 veterans waiting on quilts. So, I did the ones we are going to do and will figure out what to do after that. May have to have Debbie scan them and get that to me. It's going to be interesting how that goes. 

I finally got to sit down and do "nothing" for the last hour. UGH. It wasn't anywhere near Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
