Really, nothing special happened today. This makes me wonder if something special has happened everyday before this, or did I just not pay attention today? I woke up late, it was so nice, to the thunder of a huge rain storm. I just lay there, listening to the rain and thunder, and thought that it has been a while since I have had that privilige. With nothing to do, I picked up a historical romance that I had started reading, and turned on the light. I read for a bit, and got bored. I picked up my latest crochet project, worked on it for a few minutes, and got bored. The TV was off, the dogs, Martin and Aunt Cheryl, (who is visiting again for a few days) were slumbering soundly in various positions. Hmmm, what to do? Suddenly, the phone rang. It was Becky, wanting to know if I wanted to go shopping. I quickly agreed, but told her that I could spend no money, as I am trying to be an Ant, and I don't know what to expect in the near future money wise. I told her that I would let the other slugs just sleep, and we would sneak out. "Who you calling a slug?" asked Martin. "Yeah, I heard everything" said Aunt Cheryl. I told her that we were going to Target, and invited her along. Martin jumped out of bed and announced that he was hungry, and going out to get something to eat. I thought about suggesting that he let me fix something for him, but Becky would be waiting, I had to get dressed, and Aunt Cheryl was getting herself ready. I have no courage sometimes. I go on and on about how I am going to save money, and just one little announcement from Martin about his empty stomach, and I roll over like a fat sausage. So, off we all go to brunch, something cheap, and then we part ways, Martin to go home a wallow in front of the TV and the rest of us off to Target.
Later this evening, Aunt Cheryl and I made enchiladas for dinner, and had David and his family over. Later we played a board game, and laughed and had a great time.
It is time for bed, and like I said, nothing special happened today, but it was a wonderful day, with lots of love, companionship and laughter. Most of my days are just like that, so maybe that is why it didn't seem special. Truly though,
