Memorial Weekend
Well, this past Memorial Day weekend was pretty much uneventful. Friday Grandpa, Jessica and I went to see Grandad for a little visit. We visited and helped him put up his goodies that he had bought in the cantina and we took him a couple of big packages of chewing gum. He has taken to chewing gum instead of the chewing tobacco. It is a lot cleaner and he can swallow with that. He chews a whole package of five sticks at a time. Jessica was with us when we took Grandad the gum and she told me in a wisper that Grandad put ALL that gum in his mouth at once ( 5 sticks). ROFLOL... She was not sure if he should have done that. I told her that is was ok, he had a big mouth, LOL... No, he did not hear me tell her that!
Before we left, we went in to the business office and I bought a meal ticket for the cafeteria. For $20.00 you get 10 punches worth $2.00 each. It takes 2 punches for each of us to eat. That was not bad. Every time that Jana or RoRo said that they were going to go eat with Grandad in the cafeteria, we couldn't go because we did not have a ticket. We got to the office on Friday just before they closed.
Saturday Grandpa and I went to Lindsay to fix the tire on the riding mower for Grandad, but it has a hole in it so Grandpa took it off and we will have it fixed here in the city some time this week and take it back down and do his yard, later. Grandpa told Grandad that his yard really looked like a redneck lived there now, because his riding mower is up on blocks with a tire off of it. Grandad actually laughed about it.
Grandpa and I got a call from Jana letting us know that she and RoRo and Sara were headed up to eat dinner with Grandad, so we ran by with them and had a very nice dinner with him. I was so glad that I had taken the time to buy that meal ticket the day before. They do not sell them on the weekends and the ladies in the cafeteria do not handle money.
After dinner we all went down to the family recreation room and played some pool, played music on the jukebox and laughed a lot. It was honestly a good time. Grandad called on Sunday and Monday, wanting someone to come down and see him again. We should have gone again, but sadly we did not go. I guess we should be kicked!
Sunday and Monday both, we thought about going fishing, but it was so windy all weekend and there was no reason to even go forth. I did however finally get my fishing licenses. We just did not get to go fishing.
We stayed pretty much around the house after going to the grocery store on Sunday. I hate going to the store.
We went to Uncle Chuck's on Monday, to work on his dryer and then to lunch at Crabtown and we went home, we thought for the rest of the day. Daddy hurt his shoulder moving the dryer aound, so he went to bed and took asprin. About 6:14 p.m. Uncle Chuck called again and his wheelchair had a flat and so did Roses truck. Well, Grandpa to the rescue again. He fixed the wheelchair, but he could not get the truck tire fixed with his compressor. That will have to wait. Since Grandpa is pretty much going to be out of town all week and the weekend, everything will have to wait until next week.
Ok, time to go make some more Memories, Jessica and Jordan are here for a little while. Thomas has been home this morning and they have been having a good time. The girls think that he is thier own private toy. LOL
