Valentine's Week

Tuesday: left work after 6 pm and stopped by Kroger to get C some Valentine treats. She had driven home from SC and stopped by Augusta and later the Dekalb Farmers Market. We went out and brought home two Zaxby's Zalads. Neither of us finished, so we piled the leftovers together. Watched The Middle and Hallmark Channel. I went upstairs to bed before 10 pm. Barney wasn't feeling good. He slept downstairs. He came upstairs during the thunderstorm but stayed on the floor. Not sure if something's wrong, or if Okie had worn him out again.

Wednesday night I discovered our 78 year old teacher on Wednesday night used to referee professional basketball. Bob Serafin. Perhaps the ABA. I'll have to ask him for details. He mentioned that when the blizzard hit Atlanta in 1973 he was out in California refereeing. He's not a big computer guy so I found hardly nothing about him on the internet. He's constantly telling stories, chasing rabbits in a way I love but Ceil hates. Hilarious. Pretty good how he's still teaching at JFBC.

Made it home after the meeting. Watched the ever-zanier Hunted, in which private investigators are bullying potential sources of information despite having no legal authority. Then a funny Modern Family episode with guest star Peyton Manning. Blackish was funny as well. I went to bed at 10 pm but woke up early for a workout, for a change.

Barney was feeling better Wednesday night. C had taken him for a walk. Perhaps he's just now realizing how much fun it is to be able to play with another dog, and that he has spent his entire life not being able to that. Then again he may consider himself a person, though he watches TV mostly to see other dogs and other animals.

Let work at six Thursday night. Stopped by two eyeglasses places near North Point Mall looking for frames I like. I really need to get my eyes checked. Got a battery for my watch.

Ceil grilled chicken and tossed a salad. Made me an apple pie for valentine's day. Gory episode of Chicago Med.

Speaking of reading, I checked out a book of Stephen King short stories. A little on the gory side but King explains how he got the idea for each one. Good character development and details. He's just a nerdy kid who never grew up.

Ceil's cousin Phil and his wife Teresa took a trip to Charleston. For readers who don't know them, they live in Jefferson, are the life of every party, and are great beach companions. Phil works at Nucor Darlington. The puppies from across the street from them continue to steal hearts. The same puppies I had recently posted a video of.
