Jun. 16th, 2019 08:37 pmFriday night I went out with a friend after I did grocery shopping with Dad.
The friend just came back from Florida to meet a man she has not seen in 40 years... to get to the next part of a real relationship... and jumping full throttle into living with the guy because what else does she have left at 55. The trip went well. They had fun. They stayed in her hotel room as he lives in a rooming house. He made her feel happy and loved and she had a grand time. She is planning on going back in August. I just want her to be happy and safe. She is on disability so I know this person isn't after any money.
We went out to eat and hear her musician friend sing. We had a fare bit of alcohol too.
The trains are still messed up from a derailment on Tuesday so it took over an hour and a half to get home.
Saturday came too early. Dad and his sister wanted me to go with them to North Conway, New Hampshire. The trouble with Dad is that he wants to be out the door at 6 AM... oi. No sleep for me. We had a nice day but were not home until 11 AM. TIRED.
While the day was longer than what I wanted, spending it with my Aunt was nice. She talks to me... she makes me feel good. She listens to me. Hell, she liked my new hair color.
Up today early because Dad wanted to go to breakfast on Fathers Day and then wanted to go to the cousins....
The cousins had said that they wanted to take him out for Father's Day, but because we were busy yesterday they changed their minds and when we arrived at the house found out that the day would be baseball on TV and cabbage stew. Ummm... couldn't we have at least ordered Chinese Food. Sigh. 5 hours of listening to them bicker and eating cabbage... sigh...but it was Dad's choice...and his day...
.... so glad I am away next week.
I told him that I am not hanging around anymore just to sit and go to someone else house to watch sports...WHEN I DISLIKE SPORTS. 4th of July I am going the beach...my beach... he is welcome to come...but I am not sitting in that house. If it is raining I will go to a museum or something that is open. I don't care. Or I will just paint. I said that while I want to do things all these ridiculous chores and wasting my time with TV is keeping from what I want to do...which is just chatty up on what I can't get done and PAINT.
