Dillards. Walking by the section where Shawn and I picked out his homecoming clothes. Smiling, remembering.

Snuggle hug from Tyler this morning.
Shawn seemed happy. At dinner last night, he said he'd turned in his missing history notes.
Beth stopped by, for a quick minute, so I got to see her.
Beverly, re: going to the office and getting me the copy of her driver's license, even though I said I could wait, as she hugged me, "I've been knowing you for forty-one years." I told her that I had just thought that somehow we did not hug when she first came in and out and how did that happen, and she said she'd thought the same thing.

Miss Beverly at Dillards\
I went to Dillards yesterday to see about some new clothes for Morgan's graduation. The lady who usually helps me saw me, walking up from behind me, greeted me happily. I remembered her name, "Hey, Miss Beverly," and she gave me a hug.
I know that's good salesmanship, but I still enjoyed the kindness.

Barry and I went to Rouse's last night, and he stopped at the Pop Tarts, asking me what kind Evan liked. He got a box to take to him at the Waffle House. We dropped the groceries off, went to Waffle House with Evan's treat, and then sat and had a cup of coffee and a piece of pie.
Angela sent me a text this morning.
Kennedy had planned on coming yesterday afternoon, but they worked later than expected, and traffic was stormy-weather bad, so she let me know they'd be coming today instead.
Daddy and Kathi called and both talked to me. They got their "Thank You" flowers re: Morgan's graduation, and said they were really beautiful. Daddy said that he had talked to the bank and was pleased to learn that Marianne had gotten some flowers, too. He said Andy overhears her talking about the kids, and that they are like family.
Tyler hugging me this morning. Not a hello or good-bye hug, just a hug.
I think we are rounding a corner out in the office, that other people are coming on board with the way we need to make things happen. More cooperation. Hope.
Beverly is going to be off on Friday, so we're going to see if we can't snitch some time.
Kim shared a post about the things the author liked about having an only child. #10 was "feeling complete" of "feeling like a family," or "like a complete family." Something like that. I wanted to comment but when I went back to find it, I didn't see it, so I sent Kim an email.

Well, that was kinda fun. All of the chores that I am going to delegate, with one small exception, have been delegated. So, I revamped my "Bookkeeping for Report Date" check off list, and grouped things in such a way as to a) Have all of Tuesday for Community Me, and to b) Have until 3:30 on Wednesday for writing. Mondays and Thursdays will be big days, and I may have to work late. Today, I'll have to work out HH bookkeeping after Barry and I garden in order to have the rest of the week go the way I need it to. I have moved its regular day to Friday, which kinda makes sense, since that is also the day that we pick up the mail. I say all of Tuesday --- I'll have to do the Daily Booked Loads report every day, and review Derek's report every day, but other than that... all of Tuesday.
I finished the hobby garden this weekend, or at least finished planting the things that might die if they didn't get in the ground. I have two more things to put in there, but I'm waiting for them to be easily discernible from a weed.
I cleaned up our entry way as much as I could. It needs to be mowed and edged, but I didn't get to that. I cleaned our bathroom on Sunday instead, and I spent a lot of time trying to find the pictures that I thought might be on Barry's computer. I'm not sure I can get him to take me to the river, but the pictures are gone. At any rate, I got a check mark for having looked in every possible, even found the jet skiing book on line for point of reference.
Kennedy and John came by yesterday evening and we had a nice visit, and then Evan and Chelsea stopped by for a short visit. Kennedy explained to me about the baroque period, and how it is her favorite.
Beverly and I got to hang out for a little bit Saturday afternoon, and that was fun.
