I just double checked by reading my last entry and Sheila was right. She told me that I needed to start off my blog tonight by admitting to a faulty memory. I had written that I did not make it to all of our kids high school graduation. In fact, I did. That is if you count Sharon's when I was sick and just made it over to the high school where I waited in the hallway to see her when she came out after receiving her diploma. I guess it was the college ceremonies that I did not get to. So I do admit to that faulty memory, but I can claim that I was right when I wondered about Nicholas' ceremony only lasting an hour and 1/2. Sure!! It wasn't too much over, but it did go over that 90 minute limit. What may have made it seem longer was that we got there so early. I do try to be on time to things, and all of my planning this morning went well and we arrived about an hour early. That meant that we were first and had time to stake out the seats that Sherri wanted. For this day I learned how to switch my cell phone to 'vibrate mode' and used that for the first time. We were in the right spot for pictures of Nicholas as he was receiving his diploma. Afterward we were treated to a meal at the Sizzler. I try to never pass up a free meal. On the way home while Sheila was talking to Shelli on her phone I about got us killed by changing lanes in front of a huge pick up truck. Sheila stopped breathing momentarily and also stopped talking to Shelli, but when she came back to life she explained that I had swerved through 3 lanes. A few moments later she did admit that it was really only 2 lanes, but she still counted it as 'one' against me for scaring her that way. If I get to 3 in any single trip I have to let her drive. I admit to being old so when we did get back home near 5pm I had had it for the day. Work was the furthest think from my mind so I pretended to be busy in the office, but really I just switched to zombie mode and sat out the rest of the day. Even now I am doing this in my sleep so I will finish and go upstairs and yell at the grand kids once again before I go to bed looking forward to tomorrow when I actually plan on getting some work done.
