Good Evening Ladies! Sorry it is so late, but it has been a busy day. Most of the morning was spent trying to get my driver's license. I ended up making four visits to motor vehicles and four to the eye doctor's office over the course of three days. First, I had to wait in a long line to get the form to take to the eye doctor on Monday. Then, I had my eye exam yesterday afternoon. I took the form to motor vehicles, and the people in Phoenix (where they need to fax the forms) thought the form looked altered (the doctor had gone over some of her marks). So, then I got a new form, and took it down to the doctor's office. She was busy, and they told me that they would call me if she filled out the form (so I could come back and pick it up.) They called yesterday afternoon (about closing time), and told me that I could pick up the form this morning.
So, I dropped off DH at the club (went fine), and then picked up the form and went right to motor vehicles. After waiting for about an hour, they said that the doctor failed to write the exam date on the new form. So, I had to drive back to the eye doctor's office, get the date added and initialed, take the form back to motor vehicles, wait for the people in Phoenix to say it was okay, and finally, finally got my license.
Then, I only had a few minutes to make it to the newcomers lunch at a local restaurant. After lunch, I came home and changed -- went to the gym. Came back in time for the plumber to show up, and left him while I picked up DH. The plumber replaced the ring in the toilet, drained the hot water heater, and checked the insulation on the outdoor pipes. I paid the plumber, and finally had a chance to get back to posting.
Needless to say, I am ready for a nap.
Glad you had a quiet day twinny, and I really hope things go okay with your Mom's new home. Difficult time for all involved.
Interesting about your DH's relatives, Charlene. I hope the dinner went okay, and that his brother didn't try to hit him up for money or whatever. I think it must be so difficult to grow up in a family like your DH's. While my parents weren't perfect, they were so much better than your DH's family or Arlene's Mom for example.
Sorry some of you are having nasty weather, and I hope no one has problems with flooding, etc.
Guess I better start thinking about dinner. Fortunately, I have some leftovers that will be a good start.
Waves to LindaR, Rosa, Arlene, pinky ann, snicks, Bernie, Marijane, Susan, Karen, and all of our posters and readers. Sleep well everyone!
