Today started off like all the others with the alarm blaring away at 5:30am. Why can't I be like some folks and NEVER have to set an alarm because my inner alarm automatically wakes me up at the same time every day? I probably could if I'd go to bed at a decent hour and stop trying to deprive my body of the rest it needs. My brain has just gotten too big for its britches, I'm telling you!
So it's pouring down rain outside, right? And today is garbage pickup day - go figure! Now let's see, that means that I get to go out into the rain and stack all the recycle stuff in their respective bins (in the dark), and drag the can (thank God it's on wheels!) to the end of the drive. When I was a child I had no idea what fun it would be to grow up and be an adult! Seriously though, I really don't mind at all.
On a more somber note, today is also Jeri's stress test for her heart. I'm taking the day off to take her and give her emotional support. She is so worried about it that I don't think she rested well last night. She also didn't read her instructions about not taking Atenol both yesterday and today. She knew she wasn't supposed to take it today, but further review of her instructions found she wasn't supposed to take it yesterday either. She is going to call the doctor's office and make sure that she should still have the test today or perhaps reschedule. I'll let you know what happens. Please keep her in your prayers.
After all the snow, ice and now rain, my car is absolutely filthy! I'd be humiliated to be seen in it if it weren't for the fact that nearly everyone else is in the same boat! Oh well, there will be plenty of time to clean the car when the rains stop.
Well, better get that garbage out. After all, I don't want to miss out on all the fun out there! LOL~

I hope everything's OK with Jeri.
I hope everything turns out OK for Jeri. I'm sure Jeri is glad you are able to be there for support.
Thank you both! Yes, she is very glad to have my support, but we've been best friends for nearly 30 years so she is more like a sister to me than a friend. We've been through each others ups and downs like all good friends are. She is the funniest person I have ever known - she should have been a stand up comedian. I'm serious! Some future stories may involve some of our escapades over the last 30 years. Thanks again for your prayers and concern!
