Got two hours of sleep. Yesterday I had to do major grocery shopping and then waited for my bro to get home so we could take his dog over to a friend's house. Friends will be watching the dog while he's away. We were going to stay over until it was time to leave for the airport, but our friends wanted to sleep. The dog did not want to cooperate. As soon as he saw the chain, he started trying to fight to get away. I had to catch him and drag him over while my brother held the chain and then I handed him off to my brother. Tossed and turned trying to get some sleep and then at 6:25am the phone rang-- it was my brother using his cell to call my mother (who was in the same room with him) as a joke, but it woke me up. So then my brother decided that I shouldn't go back to sleep-- even though we didn't need to be at the airport til 9am.
But I couldn't get back to sleep so we left and went to IHOP so my bro could eat before getting on his plane. Got to the airport around 8:40am. Ticket people told him his flight was running behind by an hour. I sat with him for a little over an hour and then headed out.
Stopped at HD to pick up some stuff and ask about windows and doors-- saw a trail of blood and some concerned employees-- door & window guy had cut his finger on something on a door (apparently he was the 3rd person to cut himself on it). I waited for him to get back & discussed custom orders of windows with tempered glass, got the pricing, and headed out.
Post office was closed for lunch so I decided to just go home and sleep-- only I got halfway down my road and discovered it was closed. They were putting in new culverts and had it blocked off. I sat a few minutes and then turned around to go back into town and hang with some friends. My brother's dog had managed to tangle himself up on something in the mud. I walked over to untangle him and the muddy s.o.b. jumped up and tightly hugged my leg and wouldn't let go. Finally dislodged him and went inside. Texted my bro to find out that his plane was an hour and a half late and that he'd bee sitting on the plane over an hour waiting. Eventually they had everyone get off the plane. There was some mechanical problem and it made him miss his connecting flight. He didn't get to leave until 2pm (2 hours after his connecting flight left). So, he had to wait for them to find him another flight but he has a long layover in LAX-- it said ETA would be 31 hours. I'm still waiting to hear more news from him.
Cooked mom some burgers for dinner and now I'm trying to get my brain to settle down enough so I can nap.
