Dear Ted #43 - Father's Day

Hello my love.

It's Father's Day - I hope you're having a good one.  In my mind, you're with your dad, my dad and you're all having a great time together.  I don't know if it's so, but it feels good to think that is what is going on.  

Been really laid back here.  Didn't really do anything, besides clean the kitchen a bit and get some more stuff in the trash.  That's how I spend my Sunday.  Putting crap in the trash.  I know it's your crap - usually - but I have no clue what to do with a lot of it.  Steve and Tom neither wanted any of the phones or anything.  So - unless I feel like it's good for something, it's going into the trash.

I still need to get down to Phoenix.  But Covid down there is sooo crazy bad.  Until it gets a little better, I don't dare go.  It's getting worse instead of better, so I'm almost scared to do anything right now.  It's bad enough just working and going to the store.

I'm thinking of going to Idaho sometime in July.  I have Saturday, Sunday and Mondays off, so I am thinking of trying to get there.  

I went the night shift for July.  Everything is so weird, that I decided I needed a break.  It's been extremely stressful there the last couple of months.  I am one of about 50 people that chose to work.  It's been insane what is going on.  I am so tired of admin and brown nosers and just completely exhausted.  It's just kind of too much right now.  On the first, about 70 people have been forced to come back.  They aren't pleased about it - cuz they've spent the last two months making more money than they would at work.  While I'm making 25% less.  I've been pretty irritated by the people off and their posts about how picked on they are to have to come back.  My cranky has been through the roof.  

I sure miss you.  I hope you've had a nice Father's Day and first day of Summer.  I miss you something fierce and love you even more.  Sure wish I could hold your hand, kiss your lips and rub your whiskers.

Dear Ted #45 - Independence Day

Today is the Fourth of July.  You aren't here.  It's kind of a weird one.  No public or big fireworks shows.  No parades.  Just a low key, don't get in big crowds kind of event. We had dinner at Crystal and Brandon's.  Didn't barbecue, had pasta with alfredo, salad, watermelon, garlic bread.  It was a tasty, very different, holiday meal. Then we made smores for dessert.   The kids played in the pool.  And did some snakes and smoke bombs.  It was a good day.   When KayeLynn and I got home, we just kind of watched TV.  Then the fireworks started.  The private, big package fireworks.  I had to go out and sit for a little bit.  I had to watch.  Too many memories flooded about how much you loved fireworks.  I just had to go out and watch for a while.  It was kinda a sucky show, but there were a few good ones.  It was nice and warm outside.   I've kinda been pretty blue the last few days. ...

Dear Ted #19

Hello my love.  It's been a few days.  Not that I'm not always thinking about you, I just don't have a lot to tell you from day to day.  It's been pretty normal.  Just working and coming home and trying to accomplish something.  Generally, I don't.  I had specific plans during my days off and I don't think I accomplished but a couple.  Sweeping, mopping, vacuuming and dishes.  I didn't get your shoes gathered up.  I didn't get the bathroom countertop finished.  I didn't get most things done. I heard from Discover Card finally.  I think that is everything.  I'm not 100% sure they aren't going to go after something, but I really doubt you have hidden assets, so I don't know that there is anything to worry about.  But, you know me.  I always will worry. I went to HOA last night.  For some reason, that was giving me anxiety.  I made it through.  I got the proxies out.  They have someone to replace ...

Dear Ted #24

So I've decided to give a new name to a certain day of the week.  I will now be calling it Productive Tuesdays.  I'm giving myself a goal to accomplish on that day and doing everything I can to meet that goal.  This Tuesday, I worked on our bathroom and our bedroom.  I finished up most of the painting, there is the other side of the beam that I still need to do, but it doesn't show - so I'm not too worried.  😂😂  Went through your nightstand drawers.  A lot of the stuff in there made me smile.   I also started painting our closet.   I'm doing the same colors as the bathroom.  I made a nice little shrine to you on your nightstand.  Got a picture of you in front of the flags from when we were at the Missouri.  I have your NSA mug with a bunch of little tools in it.  Your Jeeps.  Your Marine beanie and your Get Smart beanie.  One of your floppy hats. Your one Marine hat is hanging above the night stan...
