It's the start of my weekend, and I'm taking Sunday off, so I'm off for three days. I have a dentist's appointment tomorrow, but it's at the relatively civilized hour of 1 PM.

I guess that I am going to see Star Wars this weekend. My boss wants all of us (the full-timers) to see it this weekend so we can discuss it on Monday.

My friend at work said that she'd drive me to the train station when I'm going to Chicago, so that's one issue off of my mind.

My dad is "surprised" that I want public transportation wherever I retire. He said that he and his wife will be driving "until age 90 or they kick the bucket, whichever comes first". Not I.

My mom is leaving for Chicago this weekend, and I hope that she'll stop if the drive gets to much for her. She has been kind of tired.

I'm feeling really cold even though I have a sweater on. I need to see what the wacky thermostat is doing. 66 degrees F. I just convinced it to turn the heat on.

Back home from the dentist and errands. Apparently I was in the mood to spend money because I caught myself thinking "Hmm, that would be cool," etc. Then I'd tell myself "No". I did come home with a very cheap pair of ballet flat type shoes because they're so comfortable that they feel like wearing slippers. (I don't do high heels anymore.) Love getting shoes at Walmart.

I'm using an app that gives you points for going to certain stores, scanning your receipts, etc. Basically you're trading a lot of info about what you buy and where for a gift card. I'm doing it though. At least, I'm doing the check-in to to the store and scanning receipts. You can also get points for scanning certain items in the store, but forget that. Not worth my time. I don't have much luck with coupons, so this will give me a chance to get a little cash back.

Just ate something. Trying to decide whether I want to take a nap or not. Maybe I'll start doing stuff around here and take a nap if I get tired.

Oh, and I'm getting hooked on the "Fixer Upper" show that they were playing at the dentist. I don't know where they get some of their remodeling ideas.

Mom Report

I did take a nap and really zonked out. Until I talked to my mom, I unpacked some stuff in my bedroom. I tried on some boots that I've had a long time, and they're too narrow to fit! Don't know what I was thinking when I bought them. Into the thrift shop bag they go.

Mom is feeling pretty good and is almost ready to go to Chicago on Sunday. She promised that she'd stop if she feels tired, and will give me a quick call when she gets there. (Funny how our roles reverse.) She now wants to stay here through New Year's Day, which is fine with me as long as I can get some stuff done around here.

I was going to stay up and do some "quiet" stuff, including listing some stuff for sale on Facebook, but maybe I should go to sleep early instead. My mouth hurts though from the dentist, so I'm waiting for generic Tylenol to kick in.

Harlee is complaining about something, so I should see what she's up to.
