Dry Rain Day.

Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada.

Kathy had the lights turned off and the covers pulled up by 10:30 last night but I just wasn’t tired. Sitting back at the computers I read the blogs that had posted since I had last looked then played a few games until I got tired. Looking at 2:05 when I went to bed I slept soundly until 8:05 this morning and haven’t felt tired all day or yawned once. The last week even when I have a full night’s sleep I normally walk around yawning most of the day. I guess that is how we survived during our careers our bodies knew when we went to bed it was time to sleep and no messing around but when you’re retired our bodies don’t get that deep sleep the way we used to. 

After watching the Weather Channel during breakfast they predicted that we were going to have rain the whole day then we headed to the computers. I kept a close eye on the time and at 10:10 I brought out two bran muffins that would help tide us over until after Kathy’s test. 

By 2:00 we were once again back at Hotel Dieu Hospital for Kathy’s test. Using medications they wanted to see how much stress her heart could take before she started experiencing problems but also if there is any blockages. Being that Kathy was born with a Congenital Heart Defect she did rather well but they still gave her a rest period before doing the second part of the test which she had to lay very still for. 

It was 3:55 by the time we were in the car and heading back to the apartment. We stopped at Taco Bell and picked up a family pack which we took home and ate until we were satisfied. Guess what we are having for lunch tomorrow considering that there was definitely more food than we could eat in one meal. 

Since it is Wednesday we were heading out to our son Kevin’s for our weekly visit. Our route to his place takes us right past Sun Parlour Trailer where our trailer is for repairs so we stopped in to see how it’s going. It seems that Keystone is dragging their feet at sending out the parts that are needed for the repairs from the blowout. I’ll have to call Cathy tomorrow to see if I can rush the order for them. 

When we got to Kevin’s we found out we weren’t the only ones having problems today. Melissa had dropped her van off at the Chrysler dealership in Amherstburg in the morning for a scheduled oil change. Since she carpools her partner picked her up there before going to work. Imagine going to pick it up over ten hours later and finding out they never touched it. The dealership gave her the use of a loaner and a big apology to boot. 

We still enjoyed our visit talking about everything and anything. Besides all of us wanting to give some people we commonly know a good shake to put some sense into them we still had a wonderful visit with lots of laughs thrown in for good measure. 

With longer daylight hours it was a beautiful clear drive home driving along the Detroit River. It never did rain today and tomorrow we still have errands we need to run before we can even think of relaxing. Thanks for following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.
