VALENTINES DAY

I HAVEN'T POSTED ALL WEEK . I'VE JUST BEEN WORKING, NORMAL STUFF. WEDNESDAY WAS VALENTINES DAY AND MIKE HAD TO WORK AT PALMERDALE SO I KNEW WE WOULDN'T BE GOING OUT ANYWHERE. HE CALLED ME AFTER I GOT OFF WORK AND TOLD ME TO COME TO THE FIRE STATION SO I DID AND HE CAME AND GOT IN MY VAN. I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE WE WERE GOING HE DROVE ME TO FOOD GIANT AND TOLD ME TO WAIT IN THE CAR HE CAME OUT WITH 2 BOUQUET OF YELLOW ROSES AND 2 BALLOON'S AND HE DROVE ME TO GRAMMY'S (DEBBIE'S MOM) HOUSE AND WE WENT TO SEE IZZY AND GAVE HER ROSES AND A BALLOON AND LOVED HER UP AND TOLD HER HAPPY VALENTINES DAY. HE HAD TO GO BACK TO WORK SO WE DIDN'T GET TO GO OUT TO DINNER BUT THAT WAS OK BECAUSE GOING OUT TO EAT ON VALENTINES DAY IS AWFUL IT IS SO CROWDED IT IS UNREAL. HE SAID HE WOULD TAKE ME OUT THE NEXT DAY WHEN HE WAS OFF. I GOT MY FIRST PAYCHECK SINCE I HAVE GONE BACK TOO WORK (ACTUALLY THE FIRST ONE THIS YEAR) AND I GOT A RAISE . NOW IF I MAKE .10 CENTS MORE PER HOUR I WILL BE MAKING WHAT IT TOOK ME 10 YEARS AT DR. MELTON'S TO MAKE. THURSDAY MORNING I HAD TO GO TO THE DOCTOR FOR A BLOOD PRESSURE CHECK UP AND AFTERWARDS I MET MIKE AT JIM AND NICKS IN TRUSSVILLE AND WE ATE OUR VALENTINES DAY LUNCH. GRAMMY WAS GOING TO BUY OUR CEMETERY PLOTS SO MIKE MET HER AT JEFFERSON MEMORIAL AND I WENT TO WORK BUT I DIDN'T KNOW IT BUT THEY NEEDED MY SIGNATURE TOO. SO AFTER I GOT OFF WORK WE HAD TO GO TO A NOTARY AND SIGN THE PAPERS.
THIS MORNING I WOKE UP AT 4:15 AM AND COULDN'T GO BACK TO SLEEP I GOT MOM AND WE WENT TO PELL CITY GOT MIKE'S PAYCHECK AND TO THE BANK I DROPPED MOM OFF AT K-MART WHILE I WENT TO THE CHIROPRACTOR, TOOK MIKE SOME MONEY THEN PICKED UP MOM AND THEN WE WENT TO EAT CHINESE IN TRUSSVILLE AND TO SAM'S . WE STOPPED ON THE WAY HOME AT JACK'S AND GOT DAD SOME LUNCH. BY THE TIME I GOT HER HOME IT WAS ABOUT TIME FOR ME TO GO TO WORK. I HAVE HAD SUCH A BUSY DAY AND FEEL LIKE I HAVE BEEN UP FOREVER. MIKE TOOK OFF FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND WENT TO GRAMMY'S AND GAVE HER THE PAPERS AND SHE GAVE US A CHECK SO NOW MAYBE WE CAN PAY SOME OF OUR BILLS OFF AND MAKE IT EASIER FOR US.
I'VE ALREADY STARTED CALLING DEBBIE TO SEE WHEN IZZY CAN COME OVER THIS WEEKEND BUT SHE IS STILL NOT ANSWERING HER PHONE. HOPEFULLY SHE CAN SPEND THE NIGHT SATURDAY NIGHT AND GO TO SUNDAY SCHOOL.
