Last Day of the Month

Here I sit wishing I could sleep.  Poor Dusty has to stay up late to close accounts for his company, so here I sit with him because I have a hard time sleeping when he's not there and I'm anticipating him coming in.  Last month he was up until 2:30-3 finishing it. 

Too bad the lady at Lowe's was incorrect and tomorrow is NOT 09/31, or we wouldn't have to mess with this because it's a lot easier to close on the weekends because you have the whole weekend, and not just one night.  You'd think there might be a more efficient use of a worker's time.  Too bad he's not hourly...well, never mind.  That would be awful.  At least he gets some semblance of flex time.  But getting back to the lady at Lowe's.  You're what 55?  60?  You don't know that September only has 30 days yet?  I guess some people will never learn.

Please be in prayer for Don Cheney and his family, those of you that know him and haven't heard.  He was recently diagnosed with ALS, and has been given 18 months of life left.  Also, you who knew Dan Fitzgerald know that those will be some of the worst moments in his and his family's lives because of the tragedy and deterioration that is that disease.  It crushes me for them, but especially Ashleigh.  She's trying to hold it all together for her 3 boys.  Man, lots of sadness the last couple of days.  Flooding in Norfolk, my friend's baby, Don.  Hopefully that's the 3, and there's not anymore.  Not sure I could handle much more in the way of painful diagnoses.  I'm praying there aren't anymore.  Only positives.  Or negatives, whichever would be positive...or negative.  Never mind...

Hannah gets a new-to-her bed tomorrow.  It was mine when I was living at my parents' house, and it was my mom's grandmother's bed before it was mine.  I know Hannah doesn't understand the heritage, but I do, and my mom does, and that makes tomorrow a very special day.  She also will have the dresser and nightstand that I had that match the bed.  The question is, where exactly will all of this furniture fit?  Perhaps there will be a dresser smack in the middle of the room.  Would that fall under Feng Shui?  ...  Doubtful.  I think we might have to relocate the roller coaster (yes, roller coaster) that's in our guest bedroom (it was a Christmas present from his grandparents.  What were we supposed to do with it?) and place a piece of the furniture in there.  That may work.  Right, so I'm going to go to bed now, with the hopes of falling asleep and the closings to be fast, before I start telling you about my chipped toenail polish and my frizzy hair.  Shoot.  Too late.
