I had a very interesting Monday. I took my friend's dogs to work and that was a pain. I took them for a walk at break and then I took them to my house at lunch because they barked at people walking by my office - not good.
I had a feeling about the day - somehow I convinced myself that the farmer would be at the dance and so I did all the things I needed to do: walking the dogs, and dinner with my neighbor on her birthday, and walking the dogs again. But I put my dance bag into the car just in case the birthday party finished in time - I finished eating later than I expected but I was compelled to go to see if my hunch was correct about the farmer and dragged the dogs with me cuz I felt guilty about leaving them in the car. OMG the farmer was there! I flat out invited him to my house after the dance and he flat out turned me down.
But the real story of the night is that at the break the violinist came down to pet the dogs and I got to talk to her about my dad who died of the same cancer that her mother died of in the spring and how it gets easier but not ever really easier to lose a parent, and to hug her several times though we have barely spoken to each other in the past 5 years we have known each other. She hugged me like she really needed a hug. I think that my father's goal was fulfilled. If I had not met the farmer or bought the car or agreed to watch the horrible dogs I might not have been in that right place at the right time to be comforted by comforting someone who is a part of an important aspect of my life.
So I think tomorrow I will really get back on track with the diet because one distraction is over and my daughter is coming to pack up some stuff tomorrow, yay!
Happy Tuesday!
