Thursday Thirteen - Why I was late AGAIN
Thursday Thirteen - Why I was late yet again!
1. I was having so much fun reading Wednesday night I forgot to start it.
2. I decided to do one that had 13 links and I hadn’t chosen all the links yet.
3. Knowing I didn’t have enough time this morning, I started writing it anyway.
4. This is AFTER we slept for hours after our normal wake up time….
5. We left to go get lunch (told you it was late) and mail off his passport renewal.
6. After standing in line at the post office, we realized he needed a doctor, lawyer, engineer, cop, teacher, judge, etc. to countersign his application… Dilemma.
7. Back at home, we realized as luck would have it we knew ONE of those people, his doctor - and he had to go there to get his fire ant allergy shot anyway. I got a square knitted on the way, during, and back.
8. Back home to reprint one page we lost and to get mail address for a special package I was mailing.
9. Trip to Ben Franklins to get black yarn to send later to Shelly for SAS, but ran into
Donna who had spearheaded the Yarn Yoga group’s 156 squares for SAS. They have done a few more!
10. Spend time watching teeny green inch(?) worm on windshield and trying to get good picture… and a movie that flopped…. View from inside the car:
11. Back in line at the post office TWICE more (don’t ask). Too many dollars in postage later because I am impatient and want them sent NOW.
12. Early dinner (remember, missed breakfast), lingered over it making plans for future.
13. Walk the mile round trip with slight hill in our cul-de-sac.
14. Try doing Thursday Thirteen, have to fill out interview form… Took the easy way out! But today was one big Stolen Moment with Leon — worth every second…. Next week will be the 13 links!
The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

Congrats on your new blog. I have not took part in TT forever. I’m always busy blogging about something else. lol You had some good reason on being late.
Rose, thanks! I love TT, love it! And the only really crummy part about yesterday is now I have to try and read all the Poetry Thursday Poems AND TTs today and I don’t have enough hours! I miss your TT, by the way!
Very cool worm.
Sorry your day sound so stressful! Happy TT.
Aaahhh, thank you, Crystal. I made it sound more stressful than it was — and having Leon with me as a stolen moment more than made up for it! I really wish the movie had come out of that sweet little worm, but someone who will remain nameless, thought he had the camera turned on when he didn’t and turned it on instead of off and videoed his feet and the car seat instead…. grin.
Hi Marcia! Sounds like an adventure I would have at the post office. Aaaaaaaaaarrrgh. Love the itty bitty worm photo. So glad you had a terrific time with Leon! Loved the lighthearted take on your day with all the details.
sending friday hugs
Thanks for the hugs, Shelby! It was one of the easiest TTs to do! No links.
Your T13 is one I’ll have to do sometime, and probably should have done this week.
I can’t wait to read yours…
