My Darlin' Chahles,
This week has been pretty relaxing for the most part.
Yesterday was beautiful. There was fog settled down in the valleys, and I managed to catch a sunrise photo. It was one of those quiet, still moments that just makes you stop and look for a while. Then later that evening, I came home, took a quick nap, and on a whim decided to head out to Allegany State Park to find a sunset spot.
I found one. Sat there and watched the sun go down… and then just stayed. All the way until the stars came out. I could hear frogs, and some kind of bird that sounded almost like a peacock - but not quite. Close enough to make me stop and listen though. It was peaceful. I wish you had been there with me.
Today started off fine… but by midafternoon, things took a turn. Because of a “falling through the cracks” snaffu, I didn’t get my regular paycheck. So that put me in a bit of a bind. But by 3:30, things started coming together.
My young - and apparently very kind - coworker, CC, loaned me $300 and told me to text him if I needed more. And PM R handed me a check for $743. Which my bank promptly decided to hold until the next business day.
Of course they did.
So here I am… temporarily funded, but not exactly liquid. I’m hoping next week brings my regular paycheck plus two weeks of per diem. That would fix a lot of things.
After work, I stopped by the pharmacy and picked up $150 worth of medicine (because why not pile that on), grabbed a Famous Bowl from KFC, and came home to my little apartment.
Changed into something more comfortable - basically an oversized T-shirt - and settled in.
And now… I’m sitting here feeling like I might be coming down with something. Scratchy throat. Achy body. Headache. Perfect timing.
No real plans this weekend.
If I venture out at all, it might be to Hobby Lobby or somewhere like that to grab some thread and a few things for the sewing project I brought with me.
Otherwise… I may just lay low and let this pass. It’s been a week.
Some really good moments… and a few bumps along the way.
I sure do wish you were here.
I miss you terribly.
Love you always,
Me
