I've been up for half an hour, since 2.00...I've been playing with my messages, renewing library books, checking email, etc. I will look at the manual for my new phone...need to figure out messaging.
~~~
7.00
I did a load of laundry, showered, figured out some of my cell phone questions, called my carrier to get more clued-in about messaging. Got more organized.

So, I went to sleep at about 23.00 last night and awoke at 5.00...I was busy in my preparations ( called Verizon Wireless, my cell phone carrier) and at the computer until about 9. I went grocery shopping with Mom and Dad in the Strip District, then we had lunch and more shopping at the Big Bird Market District. I took a nap 16.00-17.00, then played with my cell phone some more.
I helped Mom with laundry, and also with future vacation plans via frequent flyer miles.

I arose at 2 today. I went to sleep at 19.00 last night, woke up at ~21.30 and watched fireworks on television. I had a late-night snack and fell asleep about midnight.
I've been surfing the Internet since then, and answering email messages. Playing with my new phone.

I fell asleep @ 6 and awoke at 9. We waited for Kelly, who was to stop by on her way home from vacation. I ended up going with Karina to the craft store in the Waterfront, then to Giant Eagle (Big Bird, as I am wont to call this store). I worked on an organizing project, and on my address list of my friends. Liz gave me her phone numbers, and Kim and I gelled plans for later in the month.

I awoke at 2, went back to sleep, arose at 5 (to the strains of the alarm), and was up until ~9. Took a nap after breakfast and photocopied the rebates for the phones, preparing them for mailing.
Mom and I met up with Dad for noon Mass. We all scurried off afterwards so that they could make it to their Bobby Vinton concert bus pick-up location.
Karina and I went to a craft store to get supplies for our projects. We got waylaid at Rita's Ice for mango ice and mango "gelato." We each made a project in the car. I made one with her help, utilizing a sentimental object from my childhood.

Today I arose at 5, went back to sleep at 7, and took a little catnap just a little while ago.
After Dad ('d like to think inadvertently) deleted ALL my files from the family computer, I spent the afternoon recreating the files and emailing Mom some of the files for future reference. I failed to restore my CV. I can't believe that he did that after I expressly told him that they were important files, important in case of an emergency. I am almost at the point where I have lost hope in his ability.

2 to 4, 7 am again...
Those were the hours I was up in the wee hours of the morning this morning.
At about 7:30 I received a call from Mom that Kelly was visiting and up and about, William and his family were at their home, as well.
We enjoyed breakfast (true Pilipinos eat ANYthing for breakfast), karaoke (a.k.a. Minus One), and being serenaded by Mom via her first go at the accordian (at one designed by Walter, no less). Mom played childhood favorites and Pinoy folk songs, accompanied by Kelly on the accordian.
I worked on my budget for the next two months (through the end of August).
This evening we met William's family, and Marissa's parents, aunt, and cousin Will at the Frick grounds for a picnic dinner and to enjoy the musical sounds of First Friday at the Frick.

3, 9, 5, 7
These are the times I have arisen this week...Today I arose at 7 (but awoke and went back to sleep at 5).
Monday Dad drove Mom and I to get our hair/s styled. We went shopping afterwards (I got a small calculator), and had lunch at the Chinese buffet.
Tuesday I spoke with my health coach in the morning. Mom, Dad, and I went to the Waterfront to update our cell phones. Maureen and I met Jeff to celebrate her birthday over BBQ chicken pizza. We had fun chatting.
Wednesday I had an orientation meeting with Laura D's office. I met with Stacy at 19.00 hours for smoothies. We also went to the Frick Fine Arts building to bask in the setting sunlight. Last night, Mom and Dad brought home summer sweet corn from Robert.
