A beautiful day!

Well, granted it's been awhile since I've posted anything. All has been rolling along and taking me right along with it as life does everyone. I still feel I'm on the outside looking in, but that's the natural state of affairs for me, anyway. Things certainly haven't been bad. This is the first weekend in two weeks that I've spent any time at home. I am kinda feel'n lost, but hopeful. Two weekends ago I drove my friend down to Cincinnati to visit with, and then bring back with us her son who attends Cincinnati University and hasn't been able to get home for a visit since Christmas. That's way too long to go without seeing your son, so off we went as soon as he got the go ahead to take off some time from his job. Then last weekend, my friend, her son, her step son and I drove back down to Cincy to take him back to his home away from home and back to work. All went well on both journeys and I even got the chance to visit with my oldest sister and her husband as we all needed something to eat just as we came within 20 miles or so of where she and her husband live in Marion, Ohio, on our return trip from Cincinnati. We all got together for a bite to eat at the local Applebee's in Marion, Ohio and I was able to buy a meal for my sister and her husband, in part to celebrate her up and coming birthday of May 22, and also to celebrate, Mother's day, which it just so happened to be that day. Also, when I went down to visit my sis and her husband last time, they insisted on buying out meal when we went out to Applebee's , so it was pay back time. I went to a local theater last night with my girlfriend and saw a co-worker of mine in the play, "I Hate, Hamlet". The actors were excellent and we enjoyed ourselves tremendously. After the play we met up with a couple of my friends co-workers and watched some very, and not so very, talented people performing 'karaoke". We danced quite a bit and then moved on to another place where my friend knew the members of the live band playing there. Once again, we danced. Then we went to a great greasy spoon in town for a "Jack's Omelet" that will last through about 3 meals and then home, finally, at around 4:30 am, safe and sound! Whew!!! Anyway, I'm trying to get motivated in some direction today, the weather is fine, the time is mine and all I've accomplished thus far is a bath and talking to two friends on the telephone, one of which is going to take a nap and the other on the way to help out her parents for a bit. All is well with the world as far as my world goes, as far as I know. Love to any and all who find their way to this post!!! That's all folks!!
