Alex has really been racking up the hours at Culver’s this weekend. He worked Saturday from 11:30-7:00 and again today from 3:00-7:00. Things went generally pretty well, though it was a really long shift on Saturday and he wasn’t really feeling it at the start. But, he rallied after he had lunch and things were better for him after that. He did slip and fall at one point so we may have to look into better shoes. Still, he’s excited about making some money…..Saturday was the Donut Dash 5k at Heartline. I ran it, but chose not to eat donuts at each mile marker. I had one afterwards. Trey ran and had donuts, which he regretted almost immediately. Anyway, I ran as fast as I have in a long time. My official time was 24:18 or blazing fast, but the course was considerably shorter than 5 kilometers. I ran around the parking lot a couple times to get my distance up to 5k and my phone clocked my 5k time as 25:10, which is still really fast for me……Saturday while Alex was at work Beth and I did some yard work. I finally got the rose bush in the trellis dug out like Beth’s been wanting me to do for months, and finally got the lower branches on the spruce tree trimmed, got the lawn mowed and the back yard swept, got the bird feeder filled back up and most of the backyard furniture into the shed…..Sunday I went to FW to visit Mom again, since I won’t be able to next week and possibly the week after. She was sitting at a table when I got there and did not seem to notice me when I came in. Nor did she talk much at all, or respond to anything. She didn’t recognize anyone from the same photos I show her most visits, even the grandkids, and I think she soiled herself while I was sitting with her. I did get her to get up for a little walk downstairs, but she didn’t even seem to notice the birds as we walked by, even when I pointed them out to her. The whole visit was pretty much a bust…..
