A Quick Trip

Today was not a good day.  I felt miserable.  So, I packed for my weekend trip to Ohio.  Packed Penny’s stuff for her stay at Companion Boarding.  Worked on my genealogy.  Read a little bit.  Talked to Jana on the phone.  Visited with Renea (she came over to see my curtains).  Talked to Brian on the phone.  Saw on facebook that Steven is home.  Did my physical therapy.  Can’t believe how tired I am.

WOW!  We had a doozy of a storm last night.  Lots of thunder and lightning and even some rain.  Miss Penny snuggled with me.  I don’t think she liked it. 

Today is getting ready for Ohio.  Just plan to be there over the weekend.  This afternoon I will be taking Miss Penny to Companion Animal Clinic.  I board her there when necessary.  They spoil her just as much as I do.  I am all packed and everything is sitting in my dining room.  Miss Penny knows something is going on.  In fact, she makes me feel guilty.  She hides under the table or a chair and looks at me with such sad eyes.  But, I know she will be fine staying with the girls at Companion. 

We left Friday morning.  Kevin drove.  We went in Renea’s car.  Had a nice trip to Cincinnati.  Went up I-75 and it took about ten hours.  Went straight to Jana’s house, unloaded the car and met Mattie.  She is adorable.  The four of us went to Skyline for supper then Kevin and Renea went to Brian’s because they will be staying there. I stayed with Jana.  I did my pt and went to bed at the usual time.

After breakfast Saturday morning Jana and I went to Shoe Carnival.  I bought two pair of East Spirit shoes.  I have more trouble finding the kind of shoes I want, but I know they will have them.  I bought New Balance the last time and I do not like them.  Went back home and had lunch.  Jana and I then headed to Brian and Tracy’s.

We had a really good time.  It was hot, and a lot of the group went swimming.  The rest of us sat on the deck in the shade.  Rita and Bob were there, and it was good to see them.  They put their house for sale on Sunday.  Minnie and Frank (Minnie is Tracy’s Aunt) were there.  It was good to see them also.  Brandon was there, and his mom and her fiancé stopped by later in the afternoon.  Samantha and Brandon are engaged, and her ring is beautiful.  And, of course, Steven was there.  He was the reason for the party.  He will be in town about a month.  It was good to see him.  He is so grown up and looks really good.  Tracy’s sister came bringing food and her son Dom.  Several of Steven’s friends stopped by.  Bradley and Brianna were there.  James and Kerri stopped with their two girls.  Needless to say there was a good crowd to see Steven.

The day before Steven and Brian spent the day cooking so they wouldn’t have to do so on Saturday.  The food was delicious!  And, they had plenty. 

Jana and I left shortly after supper.  The heat and trip to Cincinnati finally caught up with me.  We went back to Jana’s and basically crashed. 

Kevin and Renea picked me up Sunday morning about seven o’clock and we headed for home.  Had a nice trip back.  Didn’t do much after arriving.  Just got a good night’s sleep.
