Dog A$$ed tired....

[steve201]

well...
I haven't been on the board for a bit cuz I've been running since about 6am every morning....to show you how my day has been going...I get up at 6am..grab a shower/shave and run out the door to work...hit the office running and get some things done before I run out at 11 am to drop my stuff off at the house.. ..I get marsha and we run to a dentist appt....from the office we talk to the dentist to make sure that everything is going right with this latest procedure marsha has to have done...she's getting 2 pins (which to me look like wall molly's bolts and 2 phillips head screws ) installed in her right lower jaw.....ouch!!....
then after grabbing some lunch I drop her off at the surgeon to have the work done...she gets drugged. drilled and tapped ...while I leave and run a few errands..one to west marine and the other boat store to get my parts for some touch up paint for the boat..(I dinged the side a little...)
while driving for home I get the call that she's ready for pickup...so..back to the surgeons office to pick her up...take her home...get her in bed (cuz she's about as wipped out as you can get from all the pain meds)...
once she's all settled in and comfy...I run out to a buddies boat ..we've been working on his engine for months...machine work....painting...assembly...installation into his sailboat...him miss wiring the instrument panel and burned some wires...rewire the panel....finally I get over to his boat this evening while marsha is resting...we have a few problems with the wiring..finally get that straightened out...start the engine....doesn't want to start....we do some trouble shooting and after about a half hr...we finally get his rebuilt engine running...after some final adjustments...the engine runs nice and his sail boat is a real boat again...
then I race to the local chinese restaurant for some soup and chinese food for dinner...(she likes that when she's not feeling well)...
after that I run to the store to get ice cream ..flowers...a get well balloon....and ice cream....then I have to clean up the kitchen...tomorrow's garbage pickup day..so..take out the garbage and recycle stuff...
finally I get a chance to relax and answer something like 30 emails on my home laptop...

it's now 9pm and I'm beat....down right exhausted...
sorry for such a long post but figured now is a good time to tell why I'm not on here much...every day seems to be race from sun up to sun down every day...

Now that is really busy. I am tired reading it.

You sound like a wonderful caregiver and partner. I hope Marsha heals quickly and is not in too much pain.

Maybe the weekend will allow you to slow down a tad, fingers croseed.

We are finally having summer in the midwest.

Take care and try to REST.

Steve, That sounds like a woman's life every day (working a job, taking care of the kids, running them here and there, making breakfastes, lunches & dinners, doing the laundry, keeping the house clean, and on, and on, and on). I'm glad my kids are grown and I'm finally retired!!!! Ha!

Hope Marsha feels better tomorrow. You're a good man!!!!

[grammie]

Ya, retirement is good ....but I think I'm as busy as ever....but the business I get to sellect!

Steve, hope Marcia is feeling better by now. She is lucky to have your kindness and for the gentle care of her.....hum, flowers even!!

Hay, You aren't putting the boat away this early are you? It sounds like it is 'clean up for winter'. You still have some nice weather for boating don't you?
