It is now 4:24 a.m. here. Yesterday was a tiring day. We got up earlier than usual, and went to Lowe's to replace my pet vacuum. I could not wait to get it home and try it out. It was even marked down! Once home, we put together the pet vacuum and hooked it up. I vacuumed half the hallway over and over again to ensure that I was lifting the carpet fibers and getting to the bottom. The new pet vac got up alot of sand and alot of Bella's hairs that the old pet vac did not pick up. I was very happy.
We had plans to go to the Chinese buffet with Rachel an hour before the restaurant opened, since it takes that long to get there. We got there right as they opened, and the food was good! I really enjoyed myself.
Before we left to go to Wilmington to eat, Rachel and I put on makeup. She gave me some of her extra makeup kits, which I thought were awesome.
After we filled up on lunch, we went to Walmart so Caleb could spend the $20 that Rachel gave him. Then we went to Hobby Lobby and looked around the whole store! I had never been inside a Hobby Lobby before, so I wanted to see everything. Rachel bought some things for her kitchen, along with buying me a ball covered in pink reflective glass pieces that I found was really pretty.
By the time we finished, and made it to the Mazda, we were all tired and ready to go home.
On the way home, I could not resist stopping at Arby's for mozzarella sticks. Rachel got news that her mother-in-law wasn't feeling well, and she felt like she should go home early. Deborah has stage 4 kidney failure, so it's completely understandable to want to be there when she feels badly. We had fun while Rachel was here, and I really enjoyed her company.
After Rachel left for home, I went to lay down. My feet and lower back were in pain. I did not even want to get up to take my medication. Then my dad called. I did not call him on Friday because Rachel came over, and I was busy.
We talked about getting the headlight assembly with leveler for both headlights for the Volvo, and also for me to try to access my dad's myHealtheVet account to communicate with his providers so he can get referrals to replace his diabetic shoes and his CPAP. He was asking if I had them. I felt bad, but I don't have his stuff. I thought I might never see him again, and I needed to clear my bedroom of everything in there to be able to put my new bed in there. Christinia and Caleb cleaned out my bedroom for me when she was living with us. Everything that was left behind was bagged up and put on the porch. The old furniture that was on the porch was removed January 1, 2021, but I don't remember when the big trash bags were removed from the porch. They were on the porch for almost a whole year though.
I went through alot of emotions with my dad and Sharon being kicked out of my house. I don't see how my dad can expect to have saved his belongings like he just went away for a short while on vacation or something, because that is not what happened. I did not know if I would ever have a relationship with him again. I should not be made to feel like him losing his belongings was my fault because he had at least 2 weeks where Sharon could have easily put his belongings together to be moved out, and she didn't. They took all kinds of other stuff when they left. Nothing stopped them from taking his CPAP, or his diabetic shoes. You would think those things would have been important enough for him to replace them as soon as possible. I am not taking responsibility for his things being removed from my house the way they were. I had no reason to believe I should keep his or Sharon's things after what they said about me, and after what happened.
Today I think I will pet vac the rest of the hallway and possibly be able to shampoo the carpet. I would like to work and read some of my books too. I don't think I will have the energy to do both, but we will see.
I am kind of hungry and need to take my iron pill and orange juice. I'm tired too.
