What I Did on My Day Off...

Woke up (surprisingly early...9:15ish)

Got out of bed

Dragged comb across my head*

Deposited some cash monies at the bank

Grabbed a sausage biscuit from Mcdougals

Called my mom to see if she needed anything before her neck procedure today

Left a voicemail

Had the car washed and vacuumed

My mom called back

Talked about ongoing family stuff

Said I love you

Went to an undisclosed location and inquired how much an oil change would be

Immediately bolted because I was told it would "run me about $42.00 + taxes."

Said to myself audibly, while driving out of the parking lot, "42...American?!"

Remembered  and drove to another oil change place 

Had my oil changed and my fluids checked out for a much more reasonable price at SpeeDee Oi on Monfort

Bought a broom  at the Dollar Store 

Went to Asel Art Supply to purchase fiber paper

Popped in to Dunn Bros to refill my portable coffee mug

Went back to the apartment

Debated on going upstairs first or just going straight to the garage

Started to go in the garage, but realized I needed garbage bags

Went back upstairs  to grab them and changed in to filth-ready pants

Reorganized my garage for my own sanity and for Betsy 

Swept beer cans and sawdust with the new broom

Mom called...still high...asked me to pick her up and take her somewhere

Got ready to leave

Was informed by my Mom that my Grandmother hadn't left but was just in the bathroom

Worked on a last minute  piece  for the Underground show next  weekend

Betsy called 

Guided  her to my garage

We bantered

Proceeded to answer questions about my studio on camera for the Artist Studio Tour initiative on KERA's Art and Seek

Continued to work as Betsy filmed some more

Said goodbye to Betsy

Went back down to the garage and worked...for about 3 hours

Went back upstairs

Talked to Mom...she was sober again...recovering nicely

Grabbed a bite to eat

Posted Heidi's Interview

Went back down to the garage and worked...for another 3 hours

Finished the piece that hangs tomorrow

Wrote this blog

Going to the Londoner, apparently...
