Hallmark is going through a gigantor transition. We're took down Father's Day, moved the Kid's Wall and are putting up Summer Sale items, the new Girlfriend Collection AND the ornament wall for Premiere weekend. X_x It's nice having stuff to do, but also very tiring.
I'm actually really working on putting a really big package together for my Germans. They sent me an email recently to tell me how much they missed me and that Felix died. I got really upset because I miss them a bunch and Felix is gone and they're all growing up and I haven't sent them ANYTHING, etc. The package is going well, but I need someone to come with me one of these days and shop. :D
We need to plan for the festivities in August. Sometime after the 11th? Or when the fuck ever. I just want to ask it off and put it in my calendar so I have a deadline.
Going to see my family tomorrow in the cemetery. Mom is accompanying me. I renovated my grandma's tropical MuMu and now it's real mod. Haha. I'm going to wear it and take yellow roses. I'm pretty stoked.
Birthday was great. Woke up, went to Goodwill, ate at Chipotle, chilled at home, went to the party in Muncie. It was super fun. I got to dress 70's and drink with my family and dance and such. After Muncie, I went to Gammon's house with the boy and drank more. Played Kings, smoked some decent chronic and passed the fuck out. Father's Day I went to see my cousin before he moves to fucking Italy with his family for the Air Force. His girls finally started to not be scared of me. They both let me hold them and love on them, so that was positive. That and I just got to see all of my family.
Turns out, grandma Jenny has ... Chronic Kidney something or other and is in stage 3 of 5, so she's still in a lot of pain, but maybe they'll prescribe her something she can actually afford. I just am not ready for her to die and I don't think she is either, but for now, it's nothing to worry too much about. Uncle Larry's MS is getting really bad too and I know I'm not ready for him to go and my dad certainly isn't. I just don't understand why such wonderful people have to suffer so much. He was a Navy doctor and is a fantastic father and a fantastic man and he's honest and worked hard all of his life just so he could be restrained in a wheelchair, unable to hold his own drink because of the tremors. He looked so sad the whole night because hardly anyone was talking to him. :/ I can't do this to myself and sorry for randomly rambling about it.
Good news, the boy is being really good and I think I've made headway, but knock on wood because I always think I'm making headway. At the party he wasn't very chatty and wouldn't dance with me, but he just left and walked and smoked to blow-off some steam whenever it was bothering him. If things keep the way they are, then maybe things will start to work-out better. I've been happy for the past few nights and that's very new to me, so I'm glad.
Tonight I'm home and glad of it, just wish that I had been able to see someone other than family, but I didn't put out any effort and no one else does because no one ever knows where I am.
I think I've gone on long enough. I'm going to bed and I get to cuddle with my Odie tonight! :D I can't wait to have an apartment of my own with a dog of my own.
PS - I miss you, Ashleigh Matthews. I wanted to mention that I like Prince now and would like to watch some of his movies and listen to music of his with you and you can tell me all about him. :D If you want to, of course. I might call you out of the blue sometime and come pick you up and we can shop for my Germans and for August and stuff. Or whatev. Crafts? I'm totally down for a pit-stop at Michael's to pick something up to do. I dunno. Ideas?
