I am stymied just now in my programming efforts. Just waiting for a little epiphany there. It will happen. Meanwhile, slogging through online tutorials and books. Haven't yet taken the plunge and started the coco2d stuff. Sigh.
Yesterday, I went and helped Mary again for a little bit. I didn't really do much - she had two young lads who were doing all the lifting and toting. I did help her clean out her office some more. Throwing away a lot of the "floppy" disks that older machines used. Made me want to go to NC and throw mine away. Sigh. I really need someone to help me be ruthless with my crap down there. One day. Then Jackie came by - who I still think is attractive - and they started talking - and I was just standing around, so I came home. Yay home! It was a Ginger day - mom and she started working on the front hall closet. Got some good cleaning done in that area of the house - washed windows, washed the front door curtains, wiped stuff down, cleaned stuff out. Yay! Sadly, the coats are still in piles around the living room. I doubt many will be gotten rid of - but I really don't care if the aren't replaced until two weeks from now. (Next week is mom's shower and that takes up most of the hour.) It isn't like we have a lot of visitors...
My plan was to go out and have some beer last night. But it wasn't to be. Mary made a last minute call to drop off more alcohol she didn't want to lug away and a huge older dictionary that she had no need of - like we do? - (that being said, I am always happy to see any book come into the house - yay books!) - and some freezer food that she didn't want to throw away. I also helped her with getting a reservation at a Motel 6 on the route she and the truck are taking today. I hope we picked a good one (I think we did). So I stayed home instead. Does that mean I get to go out another night? Yes. Yes it does. I am leaning towards Saturday night (eeek) - maybe heading to the lovely Leaf Kitchen. We shall see how I feel.
Big truck! |

Does Geneva have one of those services that provides hot meals for seniors? You could provide your Mom with made-in-advance cold meals as long as she gets one hot meal a day. (You're not planning to be gone all that long, right?)
They do Jeff. I am planning about a week - which is why I am thinking of taking mom. That is not long, but it is long, if you know what I mean...
