Best Laid Plans …

My plan, as always, was to have the blog ready to post to you, this morning.  That didn’t work out.  So, I’m sending it a bit late.  But, still on the same date the post was scheduled.  I needed to have the assistance of Karl, my blog guru, to get the article ready to send.  Since I’m not using my desktop computer at home, but am in Wisconsin for a period of time, I needed to be able to access the blog from my “remote” laptop.  Of course, Karl had already explained that some time ago, but do you think I could have remembered to bring the instructions with me on my journey?  No!

First and foremost, Larry would have been eighty-three, today.  Thinking about that didn’t help either.

Also, today was the date scheduled for Daughter #3’s second  complete knee replacement surgery.  We were at the hospital at 6:15 AM.  She drove because it was dark, and I don’t drive in the dark, anymore.  Next week, I plan to introduce you to my trip of several days.  It had some hiccups along the way, but overall was very peaceful.

The temperature here is many, many degrees below the temp I left at home.  Lady spent the day in the car in two dog coats, wrapped in a blanket to stay warm.  When I would go out to let her out of the car for a short time, she always acted as though she was freezing, but I would check the temp inside her little cocoon, and she was warm.

Again, I do apologize for not getting the blog out in time.  Sometimes, life is like that – it just doesn’t let you follow your carefully thought out plan.

Be safe and be well.
