Thursday and a Great Night's Sleep

I slept well last night without any help from any drugs. I woke up twice but got right back to bed and back to sleep.  I got up at 5:40AM, made up my bed, dressed and got myself ready for the day. I ate my oatmeal and had my coffee and Chai.

Then I fed the cat and her kittens.

I have read the Chronicle news and forwarded it onto those I share it with.

I will go back over to Coffeyville to give blood at 1:00PM. I am to work as an escort afterward until 3:00PM. I will be going back over a little early to get John's birthday gift first.

Leslie contacted me about when we will leave tomorrow for our retreat. I will go out there at their house at 10:45AM. and we will leave at 11:00AM for Joplin, have lunch there at noon and shop at the mall there for awhile before going out to the campgrounds for the retreat. She will let me put my car in their garage just in case of bad weather.

More later....

I left about 10:00AM and went to Coffeyville. First I dropped by the library and returned the book I found I had already read. Then I went out to Walmart and bought some vanilla for my smoothies.  I then bought John's birthday gift.  I will give it to him when Leslie and I get home from the retreat on Saturday. Saturday is his birthday. Then by that time, it was time for me to go help at the Red Cross bloodmobile at the First Baptist Church. At 1:00PM, I gave blood again. Afterward, I came on back home, read my mail and the newspaper.

It is 5:15PM right now. I will do the crossword puzzle in the Reporter.

I did the crossword puzzle and also played some solitaire and at 7:00PM, I took my bath and put my PJ's on. It appears the Schwans' man isn't coming because of the rain. About 7:30-PM, he finally arrived but I was not dressed so I told him he was too late. I didn't need anything anyhow but I had planned to buy some chicken. But not in my PJs.

I watched an episode of "Murder She Wrote" and then decided to go on to bed. I had begun packing for our trip but will need to finish in the morning.

It's 8:40PM now and I will go on to bed.
