Today was a most interesting day. I woke up later than expected because I set my alarm clock for 7:15 P.M. not A.M. Which is pretty scary because I’ve done it quite a few times. You would think after the third time doing it, I would check the little dot to make sure it’s in the right place.
I woke up and made my way outside to head to the gym. I love mornings like today because the sun was already shinning and there was a bite in the air. I walked over to the gym and did my weights. I was kind of rushing through them because I was supposed to meet my running partner at 8 to run bearhole. I just had a knack in my gut that she wasn’t going to show that early. When I got back to my house at 7:58, she wasn’t there. So, I called and got the voicemail. I gave her 10 minutes to call me back and then I was off. I was doing it for two reasons. One, I was in a hurry to get ready for the funeral. Two, I’m tired of waiting for people all the time. I’m not being inflexible. I just have more respect for my time than other people do.
I went to Josh’s grandpa’s funeral and it was very nice. People spoke many great things about Jimmie. He has a great life and was well respected and admired by many. Josh did a great job speaking about him and was able to keep it together. It really is funny how much we are alike for just being half-cousins. We are both threes with very big two wings. He wants to take care of everyone, but he so desperately wants everything to go back to normal. We threes are very resilient creatures.
We then went over to his g-ma’s house and enjoyed a nice little reception. I was playing wii with my cousin Zack and his cousin. That is a pretty cool game system I’m thinking about getting. It’s pretty easy to use and the graphics are awesome. However, they are still hard to get ahold of at the moment. Sigh. I’ll just keep researching for it.
After the reception, I went over to my sister’s house to finally get my Christmas present. This was also a bonus because I get to play with my nephews. I know they are crazy, but they are so damn cute. They are full of life and energy and I do adore them–even if one peed in my fridge. We were on the trampoline bouncing and running around–it was fun. Connor is even learning how to ride a bike. He got his training wheels on today and was slowly learning how to turn. It was watching that where I was jealous of my sister to have the boys. But then again, I’m going to Europe this summer. So the circle of life continues to turn.
