Apr. 26th, 2021 03:16 pmYesterday turned out to be a pretty good day. Rick, Allie, and I all went out for dinner and then over to Kellie's, where Kellie and I got tanked while talking about the Ma Situation. I don't know that we've progressed any in our thinking about the Ma Situation, but I think that's largely because we've reached the end of the line with it. At this point we're just spinning our wheels -- things will develop as they develop, and it's more a matter of being ready to act when they do than with planning or setting anything in motion ourselves. We've agreed that we'll take turns visiting Ma after Rick gets his second vaccination so no one has to deal with her week in and week out, but that was really the last thing to address. Kel still has to run a couple things through probate, but again, it's a matter of coming up with the right documents and having the right amount of money on the days the courts set, not on figuring much of anything out ourselves, so.
I finally made it to the post office to pick up Alex's jeans, and he likes them! I'm really pleased with that -- Alex is very small, just like his father was at that age, and buying clothes for him is a pain in the ass. It looks like I'm going to be hitting the Duluth site again next payday.
Today is shopping and housework. It's been long enough since I've had to do housework on the weekend that I'm not down about having to do it. As I said Saturday (?), it'll be nice feeling productive.
We finished watching The Falcon and The Winter Soldier last night, and I really enjoyed it. My entertainment needs are simple and easily met; I did not have the problems I've heard discussed here and there with it. I think it's another symptom of my slow slide away from fandom that I'm no longer invested enough in anything I watch to get too overwrought about much of anything. That's not necessarily a bad thing -- I mean, I enjoyed the show -- but it does mean I no longer have the interest in or the patience for long rants about this, that, or the other thing about content that I largely enjoy for what it is.
And, it's about time to leave, so I better go find my shoes. I hope you all had a good weekend, and that your week has gotten off to a pleasant start!
