Monday Sure Comes Around Quickly

The Husband took a vacation day on Friday!  We played the day away - haircuts, movie, food, relaxing around the house in the evening.  One of those rare days when we just mentally relaxed - we both needed it.

Then the weekend seemed to pass all too quickly - with a few errands, a small delayed birthday celebration for the youngest son, visiting with a friend in a rehab center, church, home teaching, home teachers here and before you know it - it's Monday again.

Will I bruise from this blood draw?

Which we started out at the dentist's for a check-up / cleaning.  And Yay! No cavities for either of us.  (Although I have a cracked crown that will bear watching...it's an expensive replacement.) Then off to have our health assessment for some cash incentive from The Company.  Height, weight, blood pressure, blood draw.

It's official - again - I'm a fraction under 5'2".  (The 12-almost-13-year-old granddaughter has topped my height.)  Weight:  too much to document.  And blood pressure:  he kindly took it three times till it got down around where it usually is.  (Not fond of needles.)

Observations from the last few days:

 - The rain surely makes everything look green and lush and beautiful.

 - High Priest Socials are better when they're shorter.

 - Watched some people throw money on the table to compensate the wait staff for the horrendous mess their mostly unwatched children left.  It makes my heart sad that they found it easier to just pay for their ill manners than to teach their children to sit down (instead of wandering around the tables carrying/spilling/dropping food and drink everywhere) and behave appropriately in public.  I was supremely embarrassed for them all - parents and children alike.  And, correct, it isn't my business.  It does, though,  make me sad.

 - After a week without a treat that teensy square of Bake 360 brownie from the freezer nearly made me swoon.

 - Enjoyed being invited to accompany someone when they sing in church on Sunday.  Practicing for something specific is always a pleasure.

 - Primary yesterday wasn't near as much fun as usual.  Didn't enjoy how the Stake managed things for Ward Conference.  (Thankfully we're all different and everyone doesn't have to do things the same for them to be acceptable.)
