What a day

Today started usual, then Precious refused his harness so waited a half hour before having our walk. P rushes downstairs to meet a neighbor coming in and P is ready to run into this guy's apartment. I hold him back cuz there is a large and small dog behind the door, I hear them barking. So go out and return to wait for time to pick up niece. Give her birthday present (6 next week) and watch Barbie Swan Lake. We read the book at bedtime. Then after supper, we put up the xmas tree (sister had note to clear space and I interpreted to put it up also). So force niece into hard labor picking up her toys and moving her toy tub and art stuff out of the way. She would pick up 2 stuffed animals and ask if we are done. Pushing the tree upstairs about killed me, but sliding it across the floor wasn't as bad, 9 ft tree. Niece was so excited. We couldn't find the ornaments or lights so let sister worry about that.

Time for bed and read our new books. Sister got new Halloween books from school. Read her birthday book, Are we there yet?, about a family going to an amusement park. Then hugs and kisses good night. Watch grown up programs saved on their DVR. I have panic attack when about 3 vehicles zoom down the street with lights flashing and sirens wailing. My sister hasn't called and very late than usual. 10 minutes I wonder if she has been in a car accident on the way home, but then she calls saying she went shopping after closing up the book fair and about to come home. Ok. I can relax. We chat and then say good bye. I lost a sock and then find it on the floor of my apartment.

Now home cuddling with kitties. I see my cousin has a site to keep family and friends updated on her progress with her chemo. I signed her guest book and looked at the beautiful girls she has. They grow up so fast.

Later.
