I am waiting for a package to arrive with my birthday
present from Ted in it. We had wanted to go to Muskogee
today to visit a friend who is in a nursing home and the
weather is perfect for a small road trip. Instead, the
package was delayed a day which is really frustrating.
We have had a package of Omaha steaks stolen from the
porch so I don't feel I can take any chances.

I am caring for Mandy, Ellie and the girls are in Nashville
for spring break. I go over three times a day to care for
her and give her cuddles. She is precious and she has not
been eating well since they have been gone. She was
Bobby's dog and still sleeps on his body pillow. I spend
about thirty minutes with her each time and today I hand
fed her in order to get some food down her. She ate well
and needed the T.L.C. I can not bring her home with me
because Rex will not tolerate another dog, being a jealous
mess. I dread their going to Europe because they will be
gone ten days and she will be very lonely. If we go to
Muskogee tomorrow, I am going to take her with us.

This little chore has me walking again. I only drive
over when it is chilly. Three blocks is not much of a
walk but two round trips add up to a mile. I hope to
get my stamina back. I have been lazy this winter.
