silver_chipmunkWoke up at 9:00 because I forgot to reset my alarm from yesterday, but I didn't get up til 10:00. Then I had breakfast, and coffee, and showered and washed my hair. Then I got dressed and called mashfanficchick and told zer that I was heading for the St Nicholas Church Greek festival, and would ze like to meet me there?
Ze agreed, so I headed out. It was a smaller festival than I expected, but quite sufficient. I started by going to the flea market, where I got a small glass animal for my collection, and a plastic recorder, identical to the one I got in grade school, that I treasured for years and then got broken.
I walked around the rest of the festival, and got a baklava while I waited formashfanficchick. I watched a very cute young priest who was taking care of an adorable toddler (nephew maybe?) and that occupied my time. Eventually ze got there and we had lunch in the food tent. I got an absolutely scrumptious gyro sandwich, and a pina colada.
Then we walked around the festival together, starting with the flea market again, where I got something I had been thinking of getting for the Kid for Christmas.
Then we split up and I took the bus home. By then it was close to 5:30, and I was tired, didn't take a nap but lay down and rested until 7:00 when the FWiB and I tried to Team. Something bad happened to his computer though. It's not working at all, and he's going to have to take it to the Apple store. We had our nightly communication by phone instead, which is unsatisfying.
At 8:30 I called Middle Brother, he's doing fine, looking forward to Memorial Day, and had been to Target and 7'11 yesterday.
After that I called the Kid and talked a little, she was in Manhattan celebrating her birthday,
Then I did a few random chores, and finally it was pet feeding time.
I talked yesterday with Robyn, and she is going to bring Oldest Brother's ashes to me atmashfanficchick's place on Tuesday. I also have my gyno appointment that day, so it will be a bit complicated, but I'll manage.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. Middle Brother is well.
3. Fun time at the Greek festival.
4. Baklava.
5. Clean hair.
6. Getting the ashes back.
