Package Arrived

Have I mentioned that I am not a morning person?  Never have been, never will be but when you have to work for a living…well you have to make adjustments.  I wrongly assumed that when I retired I could give myself the luxury of sleeping in late but so far it has not worked out that way.

Of course we all have different definitions of what sleeping late means.  I define it to mean not getting up till noon or later.  Then again I am a night owl so if I say I went to bed early, I mean it was before 3:00 a.m.

All this week I have been getting up “early” and frankly I am worn out.  Had to make a trip to Home Depot, Wal-Mart and the post office before the heat of the day set in.  Finally received the package I was waiting for, well one of three packages but it was the most important one.  Had I sent it off when I should of instead of procrastinating like I always do, I could have already been to Houston and back.

Speaking of Houston, are there any bloggers out there that live in Northwest Houston?  All my friends and acquaintances live in the City of South Houston, Pasadena or Deer Park and that is an hour away from my house so have no way of knowing if it has rained or not and if we are under watering restrictions in my sub-division since I am in a MUD district and not on City of Houston water.

The only neighbor on my street that I trust has a special needs child plus two grandchildren she takes care of during the day.  I therefore do not like to call her unless it is an emergency. The other neighbor lady lives a street down but most of the time she is under heavy medication that has her sleeping for days on end.

Yesterday when I drove into town regular gasoline was selling for $3.39 a gallon and today Wal-Mart was selling it for $3.32 a gallon…nice .07cent drop in price, and hope it goes even lower!

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
