The alarm goes off at 0656. Sunday is swim day but today Missy wants to leave early for Ohio so we stay to help her get ready. Neither Missy or Akerke look as tired as they did when they arrived on Wednesday. The advantage of a couple of good night's sleep.
The car seat the Missy purchased from Baby's R Us is missing a part so she will stop by the store when it opens at 1000. I take Missy's car to the car wash. It has a lot of bird guano that it picked up when parked under the tree in our yard. I also filled the car with gas. Gas is now $2.59 per gallon. From everything I read gas prices should go up in the next couple of weeks.
Missy, Ms P and Akerke leave about 1030. Nancy and I head for Meijers to do our weekly shopping. The store was very crowded. Usually we are at Meijers 1.5 hours earlier than today and the crowd is quite light. Nancy did fix her world famous poached eggs for breakfast. After breakfast I read the front and sports page of the GRP and then headed for bed. I took a 2 hour nap. I just finished a 3 mile walk.
Nancy is fixing a light meal of roast beef sandwiches and tomato soup. Tonight will be a relaxing night of 60 minutes and then some bed time reading. The house is very quiet without Ms P or Missy and Akerke.
After a hectic three weeks of living in apartments and in airports, Akerke will finally arrive at her new home. I am sure that when she settles in a warm, stable environment her growth will accelerate.
Ossineke, MI this date in 1938. GG cleared the garden and got it ready for the plow. He also picked some beets and chard. GG worked in the post office in the afternoon. He gave the Salvation Army $1. Was a $1 gift in 1938 a big gift?
