So today... just wow.

So today... just wow.

Shaun was working in my yard... and I would say that he got a splinter, but that would be the understatement of the year.  Something impaled his thumb pad and ALMOST came out of the tip of his thumb.  But, it didn't, so he then spent hours digging into his thumb with a knife and tweezers - to no avail.  I checked on him occasionally, but mostly felt helpless and sad.  He did get part of whatever was in there out, but part of it is still deep in there.  He is going to the doctor in the morning.

I hated to leave him, but I was running late to meet my brother so I really had to go.  I briefly saw my dad and shared him some cake, then ran by my mom's.  I shared them some cake, too.  Cade bought me nail polish - nothing I had, and all great colors - so woohoo for that!  😃  Mom got me an owl painting and some owls I asked her to fix for me.  I wasn't expecting anything, so that was pretty fucking awesome.  It was all wrapped up, too, so that was even more fun.  😃

Then me and my brother went ahead to to CiCi's pizza.  The food was gross and the people we were meeting were sick.  Like, snot dripping, boogers on noses, OMG, SICK.  I was SO GROSSED OUT that I actually felt nauseated.  I think they might should have stayed home, but my brother had fun so I guess it was worth it.

Anyway, after that, I thought I would drop off my recycling before I went home.  Yeah... I turned off my car and it wouldn't start again.  So, me and Shadow were stranded in the cold until Shaun could pick us up.  Holy cow, y'all.  You don't even know how tired I am getting of that.

So, that has been my day.  I think yesterday was better.  The highlight of today was my chess cake, unexpected presents, and of course, all of the birthday wishes from you.  That made me feel pretty special.  Thank you for that.  ❤
