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 - #71

Holy hell. It's almost been a year since I wrote to you. Ten months, actually!! WOW Just thought I would catch you up on a few things. February I took Harper to Disneyland. We had a great time. I love that kid. That was the last time I traveled. Crazy, I know. April, I had gastric bypass surgery. I decided the rest of my life should be as healthy as possible. However, I've been pretty weak since having it. I actually did ok until I had Covid in June. That nearly killed me. Not really, but I got so weak I couldn't walk for twenty feet without thinking I needed to sit down and relax. I'm still dealing with that. Rustie had her gallbladder out on Friday. On Monday, I will be picking up the three girls. They will be staying with me until Saturday. Then I'll be taking them to Russ and Nancy's - I think. On Saturday, KayeLynn and I are heading to Grand Junction. Randi and Iri moved to Delta, Colorado back in May. So, we are going to go see them...

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 - #70 - Two years

Well, it's been two years. I can't even believe it. I worked all day and kept my mind off things. Since being home, it's not as easy. I love you more than you'll ever know.
