Daughter and Mother are looking for a bigger house. It seems Daughter has resigned herself to the idea that she is not going to be out on her own yet. i hope they get one that is all on one floor. For all our sakes. If they haven't moved by the time i get home, i have an idea wandering around in my head i'd like to talk to Mother about.
She called from CA, finally. Apparently Brother is working from home this week to spend tome with Mother. That is nice. Usually she goes out there and only gets to see him on the weekend. They probably won't do much, lots of school things for Babe, maybe a day trip, but Mother is moving very slow these days.
Auntie Nurse and Spouse are taking Daughter out for breakie this morning. This is the kind of thing Daughter needs. She seems so much happier with family and being able to get out and do things. She needs to be 'home.' She needs to be with people who love her and care for her. Not that he didn't, but their lives were so sheltered and alone.
Very much like Master and i, now that i think about it. For me it is by choice. But i have been seriously thinking about joining some social club thingie just to find a female friend who does NOT work with me. i don't mind being a hermit. i like being by myself. But there are times when i would surely like a female to yak too. Master is ok to talk to, but He, of course, looks at things from a male perspective. That can be so aggrevating sometimes. When that happens i find i shut down, and don't talk about the things that bother me. At least not in the same way. Good thing it doesn't happen very often i guess. Or i would be in a pickle.
i like being home. Yesterday and today i did laundry and hung it outside to dry. There is something so satisfying about hanging laundry. Last night i went to sleep in clean smelling sheets that were still warm from the sun. i took a long luxurious herb bath, washed and towel dried my hair, took my book and snuggled into read. i was clean and earthy smelling, bed clothes were clean and smelled of sun and ocean air. i read for an hour and then slept like a baby. The best night i've had since Master has been gone. i do like sleeping in the bed. It's just better with Him in there too.
In to the office tomorrow. Do the official grade list for the unit. A bit more research on the placement exam. i'm thinking about going out for lunch. i've got an itch for the Mediterranian Salad at Fresh. i'll take my book and go out for lunch. Maybe go to the Laura Ashley store and see about some lamps for the bedroom.
i always get nervous in the summer because this university pays the summer money all in May. i won't get another check until September. i have lost no money, i get everything that is owed me, it's just the thought of no check again until September. Weird. Like maybe the money won't last as long if i get it all at once rather than monthly. No accounting for how my mind works when i'm not on drugs.
The added bonus this year is summer school money. The uni pays well for summer school. Very well. If the weather didn't suck so , it wouldn't be half bad. And the shortened vacation. i've got to pack a lot of stuff into less than four complete weeks. Will need to come back here for a rest. i will take a long peacefull winter break. Perhaps i will go away by myself to a quite place. A retreat of sorts. Maybe that's what i need this summer. i wonder if Mother would like a week at a spa? i wonder if Daughter would? That would defeat the purpose. Quit thinking like that. ok. That thought's gone.
