Tomorrow, Tomorrow...

Nothing much happened today; not that I can recall anyway. It was a Sunday like every other. The kids played, they argued, they played… Ellen and I went to storage to get some warmer clothes for Dolly. She didn’t have anything really warm and it’s getting cooler in the mornings now. She’ll be set for a while now. Other than that, running to the supermarket, things weren’t all that exciting. I’m tired right now so I may be forgetting something, but I don’t think so.

I called the lady about the place to live and she got back to me saying she’d call me later in the afternoon; she had some things to take care of first. I never heard from her so I just figured I’d wait to see her on Wednesday. That’s the day she and I initially decided to meet. Then, when I took the kids upstairs to get ready for bed, I couldn’t find my cell phone. Sonny kept calling it and said he could here it, Ellen did too, but I didn’t hear a thing. I’ve got bad hearing, though, so that doesn’t really say much. Anyway, I finally found it, a couple of hours later.

I remembered that the last time I saw it I had been sitting with Dolly on the sofa watching “Hannah Montana” and I got up to go into the kitchen. Dolly was still in the living room playing then ran outside onto the porch to play with the boys. She had also been playing with my laundry bag (I’d been doing laundry and she’d taken the bag before I got it back upstairs). I also remembered that I hadn’t seen her bring the bag back in. I went onto the porch, got the bag, dug around in it, through all of her things, and found my phone at the bottom. Whew! I guess I’ll be talking with little missy in the morning about that. Anyway, I checked to see if I’d missed and calls and the lady had called me around 7:00. Her message said she was busy with family, that she was sorry, but that we definitely would meet up on Wednesday when her sister is in town. I’ll call her tomorrow, per her request, to get that solidified.

I also have to go back to the Heartly House tomorrow to get the packet of stuff my caseworker has for me. I’ll do that when I pick up Dolly from school. Then we have to go to the Community Action Agency to see what, if any, help they can offer me. Maybe they’ll surprise me and come up with something that nobody else has so far. Everyone keeps offering me the same contacts so far – the exact same ones Ellen and I have already found over the last year. One little new one tomorrow would be great. Fingers crossed.

After I drop Dolly off at school I have to run to the second elementary school to enroll her there in the afternoon Pre-K. Then she’ll be able to start there on Wednesday and that will give me more time in my day. I will have to run and get her from Head Start and transport her to the Pre-K but that’s fine. It’s what has to be; I have no other choice. So I’ll be busy tomorrow, the kids are off from school on Tuesday for the primary elections, then I’ll have another busy day on Wednesday. Meeting with that lady; possibly meeting up with my friend Sylvia from Independence, MO who’s in town for work for a few days; and also getting an eye exam in the morning. I can’t wait for that since I haven’t had my eyes checked in almost four years. I’m getting older and can’t see anymore. It happens.

Sorry my posts aren’t very exciting; there just isn’t anything happening right now that’s causing me to jump out of my skin with excitement. I’m sure something noteworthy will happen soon. I hope it will, at least; I’m not sure of too much anymore. One thing I am sure about right now is that I’m tired and going to get some sleep. I’ll update about everything that happens tomorrow, tomorrow.

Until next time…peace to all.
