Sunday

I woke up Sunday morning with the light in the living room rather bright. No wonder! It was after 7:00 AM. It was a rough night with lots of bad dreams (giant tarantulas can't really spit poison in your eyes, can they?)

I warmed up a cup of coffee from yesterday and went in to finish the Blog entry.

I was typing along when Caley hopped up on the desk and ran across the keyboard. I smacked her on the butt and told her to get out of here, but the damage was done. The computer screen said, "Switching to standby" and everything went dark.

Totally pissed, I tried every F-key, right click, left click and the other keys and nothing came back up. I finally gave up and called the Web Master (feeling a little bad I might be waking him up).

He suggested holding in the power button for about 20 seconds, which I did and it worked! I finished the Blog entry and posted it.

I ate a Pluot for breakfast. What's a Pluot? I dunno... it looks and tastes similar to a plum, but it was called a Pluot on the sign at Westborn.

Lu called with an update on Mom in the morning, and then called again at 2:30 PM to let me know she had passed away. She said she wanted to call Jeremy, so I called Jake, Melissa and Amy.

As I said earlier, I didn't sleep well last night, so around 4:00 PM, I took a long nap.

When I woke up, the Sunday supper I'd planned seemed like too much work for my mood, so I ate crackers and cheese for dinner.

My brother Jim called around 7:30 PM and suggested that I might want to stay at my Mom's house in New Baltimore during the next few days so I didn't have to make that drive. I appreciated the offer but I declined (Hey, if I can't get any rest in my own house, how would I in a strange one?)

I fell asleep watching my Sunday night show. Since it was being taped, when I woke up I just shut the TV off and went into the living room and my chair.
