Saturday Plans

Every week by the time Thursday comes around  I start thinking about my week-end plans.  I like to tease myself that I will do absolutely nothing.  Just stay in my pajamas and read.  This week I had three errands to run on Saturday.  After that, do nothing.  
Friday night I packed a box of books to send to Millhouse.  I am trying to not keep every book I buy.  Millhouse and her "READING HUSBAND" appreciate books.  (I want a reading husband.)  I am able to give books I love to them.  Saturday I took the box of books to the post office.  Millhouse should have some new reading material in a few days.
I stopped at our Walmartish type store and then headed to the library.  I needed to pick up a couple of more audio books.  What did I do before audio books?  Answer:  had a boring drive.  Before I got to the library had a distressing call.  My brother that got out of the hospital on Sunday, back into the hospital on Friday, had a broken ankle.  That is when my lazy day slipped away.
This is not a complaint.  I enjoy doing things for family.  I picked up my sister-in-law and took her to visit my brother.  While driving to the hospital about 20 minutes from home, we got the news he was being moved to a hospital in another town, 30 minutes from home.  We still proceeded to Hospital A.  Chatted for a bit.  Waiting for ambulance to make the move.  We started the next leg of our journey. 
First I stopped at the Golden Arches for my new favorite thing, a Mocha Frappe.  Last week was the first time I tried a cold coffee drink.  Delicious!!  I am in love.  For some reason, I can never remember the word Frappe.  I find myself saying Frappachino.  I love that word!  Confusing to already confused voices in the Golden Arches little sound boxes.  My sister-in-law asked how I was enjoying my lazy day at home.  That was funny all afternoon.
Next stop, bigger town, bigger hospital.  The upside, Valet Parking.  I love Valet Parking at a hospital.  I do not love this big hospital.  Spent the next few hours chatting with two brothers, two sister-in-laws.  Sick brother was doing much better.  He is always doing much better after I say he is not doing great.  When a few of us are together talk always turn to family.  So many people that were so important in our lives are gone.  That makes me feel old.  Even though I still get to be the little sister.
Returned home in time to order pizza for a late dinner.  My favorite little people came to spend the night.  That provided hugs and smiles.
It was not the day I planned.  But it was a good day.  A day I was able to assist family I love so much.  We are not guaranteed forever with our families.  I want to know I enjoyed them while we are together.
By the way, still in my pajamas today.  House still not cleaned.  Books not read.  Lazy day.
