A Very Nice Day Gone By

Yesterday, the center had off because of the holiday and Sr. Tess had gone out to do errands with the other Sister, so we went in anyway and had the place to ourselves. 

We’d ordered for Casey and KC a program called, “Catz” and it had come in.  We’d had earlier versions that were enjoyed.  For those unfamiliar with the program, you adopt “petz,” and then you need to play and give them your love.  They grow and take on their own personalities and you can let them romp around rooms, or come visit you on whatever screen you are working on.  Very good company keepers for the girls!

We are still working on reports … this particular report is a performance analysis.  We’re doing quite a bit of statistics for it.  We’ve gotten through updating quarterly reports for the individual’s goals and then we did a work analysis.  We enjoy the work, but find that everything we do just gobbles up time ... trying to be ok with that. 

We left the center at 1 pm and met Forest Path at our home.  We’d bought the fixings for a holiday meal, but he convinced us that we could eat it earlier.  Fortunately, he usually does the cooking.  Although, I’d thawed it overnight and it came precooked, it still took a couple of hours.  We had turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, green bean casserole, buns, cranberries, and pumpkin pie.  Very, very good!  Lot’s of leftovers!

Throughout all, we did what we do best … just talked and talked.  We get to catch up with each other’s cares and concerns and there is quite a bit of enjoyment and laughter.  The evenings are usually short and we discovered that by 7 pm, we were ready to call it a night and get some sleep.  It was a very nice day.

Now today is beckoning us and we’ll need to go check that out.  Hopefully we’ll make good progress on the report, and then there is the Thinking Group.  We figure we’ll continue to work through lessons on behaviors.  The outline is already set out.  Nothing especially stellar, but part of the path we’re journeying.  Hope your alls' day goes well!

Glad you had a great day, All. Talking is a good skill to be best at. It goes hand in hand with writing too. Good talkers brighten the day, as I'm sure y'all do quite regularly!!

That Happy Chica,

The two of you will remain in our hearts as luvs. There's just so much to respond to out here in this world. Not a day goes by when there aren't changes to be adjusting to. One day at a time, right? Our love, Corey
