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 - #56 - Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday my love!!  I hope you had a wonderful, heavenly birthday.  Doing whatever you wanted to do.   I made it through today ok.  I lazed in bed, not wanting to get out and face the day, for quite some time.  Then I got up.  By the afternoon, I was kind of in a groove.  But, when it came to the evening, I had a really hard time facing being by myself - staying in quarantine.  I was already out.  KayeLynn has to do all the shopping, because I'm not supposed to leave the house.  She was kind of wiped out when it was done, so she asked if I would make your cake.  So - I made the cake and then later made the biscuits and put dinner together.   You see, we had a full on, virtual type dinner.  All in your honor.  Susan thought of it and put it together.  It was all based on a dream she had with you in it.  She dreamt that we had been to visit and we left a box there.  The box was full of Red...

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...

Dear Ted #63 - Happy New Year

Well, yesterday was New Years Day. I just want you to know I had a great day!!! And it was all in honor of you!!! Because we couldn't have your birthday party in November - you know, I was quarantined - we had it yesterday. We went and had an effing burger in your honor. I have to say that I was not impressed with Habit Burger. I don't think I'll go there again. Then we rented out one of the Cinemark Theatres in Farmington. We watched the new Croods movie. It was pretty danged cute. But the best part, the kids could just do what they want. Especially my little Stinka. She ran around, stopped by everyone and took their treats. And whenever the sloth said DUN DUN DUN, so would she. We had a dance party at the end while the credits rolled. I have to say, it was the best day I've had since you left me. Maybe it was not our traditional movie marathon, but it made me very happy. I love you so much and your tradition lives on. This year, it was a little ...
