Dear Brian,
I haven't written in a few days, it's been busy. Well, I guess not more busy than normal, but it seems that way when I'm not sleeping well. The doc prescribed Ambien ... YICK! So I tried a couple different brands of melatonin and found one that I think is going to work. I actually slept last night, so today was a good day. But then again, any day not working is a good day, right?! lol
Had a filling replaced this morning, then went for groceries. I think getting groceries is one of the harder things I do right now. Even when you weren't living with me, since you popped in to get your mail every now and then, when I made a trip to the grocery store, I always bought a treat or two to slip into your "mail bag" hanging in the hallway. Now ... there's no one to buy treats for except me. And I sure don't need them!
Today, I saw two things I would have bought you: Bison Jerky and Perky Jerky. The bison is explanatory, but the Perky Jerky I think was pork jerky with some caffeine added in, hence the perky part! No idea if you would have liked them, but experiments are always fun! And I liked surprising you with .... oddities! Or old standbys, like Skittles (taste the rainbow!)
I'm boiling chicken in Dr Pepper and Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce (again) so I can have that with brown rice and broccoli for suppers this week. Food has lost it's ... I'm not sure how to put it. When I eat something, it's just food for survival. Sometimes I hardly remember eating at all. But I'm eating, and drinking water, so it's all OK.
The AC company was out for there annual inspection today. There's a couple motors up there that will need replacing soon ..... with my luck, it'll happen in the hottest part of the year next summer!
The butterfly and dragonfly wind charms were looking a little rusty, so I took out the crystals, washed them up good and spray painted the wires so they look spiffy again. And I finally finished taking out the rest of that "bush" that had turned into some kind of tree! It was too big for the space; now if only you were here to help me dig up the root ball .... *sigh*
I've been trying to find some kind of bracelet, or necklace, created in your honor, but haven't found the right stuff. Yet.
I miss you always,
Love, Mom
