Yet another busy day today.

Minnie bit Mom yesterday, hard enough to get her in a bad spot – well anywhere on the hand is a bad spot. When she woke up this morning it was swollen and sore all up her arm. She arrived at the emergency room just as red streaks started to appear (thats blood poisoning). They gave her a shot and a prescription for doxycycline. The antibiotic kind of wiped her out and she spent the day resting in bed. The power of Facebook is amazing – Mom’s sister called her this morning, having found out from another family member who happened to check FB earlier!

I had a bunch of errands to do today, and had to take Dot with me. We ended up having a good time, though. First to the extension office, to drop off some soil samples of my garden, where Dot kept taking a dog sculpture off of the lady’s desk. I also forgot the checkbook and don’t carry cash either, so I have to mail a check! At least it only takes a couple weeks, just in time for planting.

On to the library to turn in some books, and a drive by boJangles to pick up a snack, where I parked and sat in the back seat with Dot while we ate. Then we went to visit the dentist office, missing Jessica yet again! We got to see Julie, and I picked up some toothpaste for Poet to use for prepping for his whitening treatment. I dropped off some mail, then returned the candy that Poet had gotten from a gas station that was expired by three years! He was VERY nice about it and gave me four candy bars in exchange for the two large icky ones. Then we went to Kroger and waited for Mom’s prescription. We returned some orange juice that had calcium added to it, that we bought by mistake. I was pretty tired by then and didn’t really need to do any shopping, so Dot and I just sat at the pharmacy, reading a couple of children’s books. We hit Wendy’s on the way home and enjoyed a hamburger right before naptime.

I kept up on Facebook and did one or two things on Jade’s site, but I was feeling incredibly unmotivated to do anything. This is definitely hormonal (and maybe eating two candy bars this afternoon helped it along) because I have a ton of exciting things I could work on. I ended up reading the book on perennial vegetable gardening.
