Have you heard of Five on Friday? Well, let me present Six on Saturday. Time to take a look back at this week and share a few happenings from it. And let me tell you, it’s been a week. Whew!
Here are a few highlights.
MONDAY
Did I mention that on my walk Monday, I ran into my brother? So that was nice. He was walking their old dog in a stroller (blind now) along with my niece’s dog who they dog sit while she works. We chatted for a minute or two.
TUESDAY 
Another day, another walk. This one with a feline guide. The sweet cat pictured up there followed me halfway down the trail before I decided to turn back so it didn’t get lost. Went to the nature center to inquire and they knew about it. Just comes to visit and follows people on the trails, they thought it lived in the neighborhood next door. Enjoying the nice weather just like all the people. Honestly, it was a little healing having this little talkative cat follow me on the trail a bit. Super sweet cat.
Maybe my sweet angel cat was looking out for me a bit? Sometimes it feels like she’s sitting behind me in the chair or jumping up on the bed as I’m about to go to sleep.
Then, the nature center cat found another playmate and I went on a different trail and saw a few birds (funny how they didn’t appear when I had company, ha!) 
WEDNESDAY
This was a lovely day.
My husband went to go hunting but surprised me by bringing me breakfast first (nothing fancy, just a breakfast burrito from McDonald’s but I rarely go there so it was a treat).
Due to the holiday, my son was off to work and came over while he was getting his car oil changed. After, he invited me to go shopping with him. We went to Target (of course), World Market, Dollar Tree, and Half-Price Books. The Dollar Tree is a new one and still smelled like paint. It was so new, I didn’t even feel that I have to use hand sanitizer RIGHT NOW feeling when we left. He went home after lunch (I treated him to Panda Express).
Then, Wednesday night, I went to Mom’s Night Out where one of my friends was having a fire pit because of the amazing weather. It was a great time!
THURSDAY
Not the best day. 
I woke up and then, had a bit of a dental issue. Had a part of tooth break but it didn’t really hurt. Still upsetting. In talking to my husband about something else, he said it might start to hurt and I would have to go to a dentist.
Not sure if I’ve ever shared here that I am SO SCARED of dentist. I was brave, and after googling to find a dentist for scaredy cats, made an appointment. By the way, don’t google dentist for chickens because then you get results about animals.
They worked me in and were SO NICE. Turns out that I’m going to need a crown on one tooth and the tooth that started it all was part of a wisdom tooth.
Anyway, I have to schedule another appointment but they did give me a prescription to deal with all the anxiety for that on the day. Can’t drive myself to it so I have to get with my husband to go over his schedule before I schedule that appointment. And I’m totally fine to do whatever until the appointment, no big dental concerns/emergency stuff.
I’m proud of myself for getting myself there despite being so scared. And also, why does the weird stuff always happen when my husband is hunting? Always. Kids were little, that was always the week the stomach flu would hit them. When did I find out I was incredibly allergic to penicillin/amoxicillin? A week when he was off hunting, of course.
FRIDAY 
A much calmer, better day here. Ironic since it was Friday the 13th.
In the morning, I watched The End of Oak Street. Honestly, I wasn’t impressed and found myself glad I hadn’t seen that one in the theater. And that’s saying something because it’s the kind of movie I normally love. It’s no Meg or The Meg 2. Both of which I’d rather rewatch than that movie. I do actually rewatch them sometimes.
In the afternoon, I went with J to the DMV so he could renew his driver’s license (he didn’t need me except for directions because the location had changed) and then, we had dinner at Culvers.
TODAY
It’s been an easy morning so far, a lot of it in the kitchen. Made muffins and bacon for breakfast. J requested chocolate/chocolate chip (mix). Then, decided to make a couple of ham/cheese quiches to have on hand for quick meals during the upcoming busy season. Those are cooling right now.
Did a couple loads of laundry, later I need to get myself to the library and grocery store to pick up some chocolate chips as J requested a cookie cake for his birthday tomorrow. So nothing too exciting on tap for today.
Tomorrow is J’s birthday and he’s settled on Subway and cookie cake for the main festivities. Hopefully, the Chiefs will give him a birthday win (not that he cares, not a big football person).
