March - Just Saying ............

I've arranged with my Daughter and Son-in-law to swing by a couple of mornings a week to spend time with my Granddaughter. We chose Tuesday and Friday mornings. The first week, I went over when I got a text that she was awake and she's had breakfast, which was usually around 9:00. Then I got to thinking ... my Son-in-law works nights so if I were to go over when my Daughter leaves for work around 7:20, I could go in and watch the monitor while he sleeps in.

I would wake up around 6:00, do a few routine things, and drive to Dunkin' Donuts for breakfast which I would eat in the car. That first week, I noticed this white SUV parked off to the side. The only other place that's open this early is a Pre-school so I figured it must belong to someone in there.





I text when I'm on my way and it worked out pretty well.

The following week, I was sick with a stomach virus so I missed out.

The week after that, we got hit with a snow storm on the Tuesday. Fortunately, it was only about 4 inches and I cleaned off/dug out that afternoon. Unfortunately, they plowed me back in and it froze over. I had to wait for my Son-in-law to come over on Thursday to help me out. I was able to go Friday.

Last week, we moved my days to Wednesday and Friday. Wednesday, I was back at Dunkin' Donuts and so was the white SUV.

My Granddaughter and I had a good time and I left around noon. I decided to pick up a sandwich from Quick Chek. I pulled into their parking lot and saw this guy.



He was just standing in the Parking Lot scratching off a lottery ticket. It's been a while.

Point, press, Flash.

I drove to Subway's instead.

Thursday, I drove down to New Brunswick for my quarterly Blood Work. I was early and out quickly. I took my usual Route 27 drive home.

There was still a lot of snow around the corners. I noticed this bike rider darting in and out of my lane because of it.




I don't like bike riders but it was just too open.

Friday, I was back Babysitting and, again, left around noon. I tried for Quick Chek again, this time for their Steak Shredded Potato Bowl.

This time, I came across this poor guy.




I figured that he was having enough trouble, besides, I really wanted that Bowl.

Saturday, I picked up some Board Games for my Granddaughter's Birthday in April.

Today it was raining when I went out and the car wouldn't start. I'm beginning to think that she won't start when it's damp out.

I just got a call from my Cardiologist's office. For some reason, they didn't get my tacrolimus level results. They need that to keep my anti-rejection meds in balance.

I have to go back Thursday morning.

March can't end soon enough for me.
