First on my heart today is Brett’s birthday…he would have been 43.  When the kids were in band, we were always getting ready for a band competition or having a competition on his birthday.  He always acted like he didn’t like the attention…but for most people…celebrating with him was a way to give back some love.

So….I woke up today worried about where to put the Christmas tree. CrAzY!!!! I’ve moved some things around in the living room and my Christmas Tree spot is gone…apparently I gave this a lot of “unconscious mind” thinking.. judging how I woke up with the shock of it all.  I have a month to figure it out…”he” always loves to hear the words…I’ve got an idea…bwa hahahaha.

He and I got new cell phones yesterday… I’m very happy…the piece of crap androids we got last March had us both in little hissy fits of rage.  Freezing up – slow – forever to turn on – had to stop apps to save battery..I was really worried he was going to hurl his across the room…that is why I purchased insurance for his..okay..not the only reason…there was that fishing incident where he put the phone in the pocket of his waders…and you can probably figure it out from there.  I always roll my eyes with the story..but I agree with him..waders are waterproof…why would you not think the pocket was…

My last day off – this is my last day off from my latest cycle of  not working a 6 day week since the first of September.  Back to the grind tomorrow – working full weeks…no scheduled extra time off until Christmas…how depressing and now I’ve got the Christmas tree to worry about….

Until next time….
