01-14-23 Friends and Commitments
I slept in, puzzled for a bit, did some laundry, showered and put together a gift for my friend Gordon before heading to visit him. We had an over 2 hour visit which was positively lovely. It was good to spend time with him, to hear firsthand his journey through his pancreatic cancer experience. He reminded me that I knew back in August when I saw him that something was wrong but at that time he thought it was just an ulcer and brushed it off. I hope to visit with his wife and son next time as well. Our hug at the end was precious and he looks forward to celebrating my 60th with me in April. Hope reigns.
I went to Home Depot from there, looking for Ice Melt. They had none so next stop was Home Hardware where I picked some up. They had a mug that amused me but I would like the saying on a t-shirt as I don’t need another mug, lol. I have so many faves already.
next stop was Arby’s as I was getting hangry. I met the newest employee and was highly amused by the way my name came out. I wonder if he used to work at Starbucks!
I cashed in my 6th scratch of the same kind which on the original $20 I have now netted 120.00. I did buy one more which I didn’t win on so I am done. It was fine while it lasted
The evening involved bartending for Cabaret at Key City. I worked with someone who caused me irritation for the first time. I have generally enjoyed everyone I’ve been paired with. This woman challenged my peace of mind but it is likely I won’t have to work with her very often and the patrons were happy so that is what matters. I look forward to actually seeing the show tomorrow afternoon.
