I was too tired last night to make a journal entry. But, that's okay. I went to bed early and got a good night's sleep, so even with the very busy day I had today I'm not totally exhausted. My day started with coffee in the Clubhouse, a quick trip to Comfort to drop off a water sample, then off to the bank. After I finished the bank run, I headed to Pizza Hut and treated my self to a nice sit down in the restaurant buffet. After lunch, I visited with Mr. Grinch for a couple of hours, then came back home.
I didn't rest on my laurels, or my butt for that matter when I got home. I gave the inside of SweetPea another thorough cleaning, including steaming all the carpets in her. Even with the new cabin air filter, on really hot days, she still has a little musty wet dog bad breath so to speak, when I first fire her up. After a few seconds the odor vanishes completely. But, that's okay, eventually that odor will finally get worked out. Right now, it is mostly in the vents. And, because SweetPea's previous owners had at least one dog, I am still vacuuming up dog hair every time I clean her. But, that's okay, in time, I will finally get all the dog hair out. The important thing is SweetPea is everything I need and want in a nice set of wheels for me.
As you may have noticed, "But, that's okay" has become a way of life for me recently. Things that would have driven me nuts in the past, are okay now. That is partly because I am too often overwhelmed and exhausted from all the bigger problems, to get bent out of shape over the small stuff. And partly because I know that most of the smaller things will work themselves out.
What is really important is that this afternoon as I was taking a break while cleaning SweetPea, Dr. Beeram's office called to inform me they had received the authorization for his chemo treatments. This is wonderful news for us because it means as soon as he is deemed in good enough shape to come home, he can begin the chemo treatments that will help him battle the cancer.
