Thursday.

     I was beginning to wear thin a little.  Cooped up at home with my sister now in residence.  Enjoying every moment I could.  The house wasn't terribly hot, thank goodness.  I can always deal with heat better than with cold. 
     Routine I admit was  wearing a bit thin.  I was longing for change.  Back among people.  Just being out of the house with a purpose was enough.  As I mentioned at the beginning, I'd had 3 open heart surgeries when young.  Times were different.
     Television was still interesting, even though we didn't have cable.  Being  young was fun.  Mom at the time was a stay at home and that was fun.  A big trip for me would constitute going to the mall.  Now because of germs, they were overly cautious then we went early.  I mean before most stores opened.  But it was sheer delight to just wander.  And at one point I'd be allowed to  go the the video game place, oh rapture.
     This was just around the time of Atari 2600, so it wasn't like having games in the palm of your hands.  It was heavenly having an entire game store to myself.
     As an adult.  You know you need to get back to routine.  A couple hundred channels and nothing on.  I'd even tired of my judge shows which I simply adored.  Even told that to my manager when he called, we had a good laugh.   He's into the judge shows as well.
     I figured that the upcoming weekend would be a good idea for a road trip.
