Well now. It looks like I have survived until Friday.
I'm actually so very tired right now that I should not be writing.
But, I DID have a clear thought or two earlier in the day.
I was thrown off by that little yellow guy on Google Maps.
Have you met him?
My friend Anne told me that she had been walking my neighborhood trying to find my house.
Since she had stayed with us at our last address, she found that (the map seems to be from the early fall of 2007 as the house is still there) and took a walk to our new address.
This is just TOO weird.
Of course, I find weird things to be fascinating (think: thggm) and spent some time traveling around the neighborhood myself.
Yup. There was Daughter's car in our driveway.
It must have been between 3:15 and 3:30 by the number of cars exiting the school down the street.
But I had places to go and people to see and could not sit at the computer.
I was gone for hours and hours in the afternoon. I picked up my dad from the nursing home to bring him to an appointment with his primary care doctor. All of that went well. He shall be coming home on Monday afternoon.
As soon as I walked through the door I sat back down at the computer and took another walk with that tiny yellow guy.
This time, I zoomed in on the state of Wisconsin. I took a walk with the tiny yellow man down the road past the white barn with the American flag painted on it, down past the beautiful red barn across from the meat market and stopped, turned and looked up the driveway at my aunt and uncle's home.
Seriously.
How weird is that?
Go to Google Maps and try it for yourself.

This is just the kind of thing that will have me at the computer for hours. I love it.
Now, tell me...was photo number two taken after several hours with the grandbabies? Mercy, by the end of my day my nice, neat ponytail I start out with in the morning has been taken down and rearranged so many times! My clothes are all disarrayed from playing 'bridge' and 'lion' and 'peek a boo'...but who cares? Dear Hubby still thinks I'm beautiful so I'll leave it at that, HA!
