I meant to tell everyone. Derrick has a problem with his verizon phone.

So he is using just the A T & T phone which is my second one. It's also his
uber one. Well for some reason going to work yesterday he left it on the
couch headed out. So, he got to work with no phone. And no way to call
for a uber. Well, he walks in hollering, did I leave my uber phone here.

I'm like, how the heck would I know. But didn't say that. I said, how did
you get home. I knew the girl that brings him sometimes on Friday nights
wasn't working this Saturday night. He says the girl that took Tina home,
Brought me too. Which the other girl brings them both on Friday night.

The girl had offered. He has a really hard time asking for a ride, I guess
it has turned out that the general manager has told the bartenders that
they should really make sure the other staff have rides home. Especially
since a couple of the bartenders are offering the rest of them rides
home. Most of the bartenders are women. So, I think she thinks it's safer
for them to offer the rides.

I am just so glad that he is finally getting more comfortable asking or letting them help him. I guess because this girl doesn't know the area quite as
well he walked about a block or two to get down from the corner, to his house area.

But it wasn't bad at 9:30pm. With good lighting

We took the dogs with us out to Oxford. Then went to run some errands
around town. This is the most I've been out since my illness. I think I
did pretty good. My husband has been working to get my PT cruiser fixed,
its the battery. And my oldest Dan's car a new battery too. So he can loan
his car to a good friend. Their Car has a blown engine so they need something
to drive for about a month till they get a new car.

Derrick and I got lunch then went and got groceries.

We spent about 4 hours running errands then got home from the errands and things. So its time to relax.

That was nice of the girl to give him a ride home.Was this out of her way?
Did he offer her some gas money?
Does he have cash with him so he can offer.
Can you tell him?

I didn't ask him if he offered her some money. But I'm guessing if he
didn't it was because he didn't think of it. He is my tipper and giving
others money. Meaning he does the best. He has been really good
sense a 18 year old doing it. He has always bought my drink or my
food when he feels its his turn. So I'm sure he did if he thought of it.

I will not say anything this time but will remind him that its okay next
time to give her some.

He always offers my kind of best friend some gas money if she is taking
him to his doctor appointments.

I forgot he was taking cooking classes.
Good for him and how exciting!!!!
bizi keep us posted on his progress thanks

Dmom3005 01-14-2023 03:40 PM

He made sweet potatoes yesterday and he even brought me out some.
They were really good.

Now we just need to get his pictures that go with his report run off and to the ladies who need to sign it.

And it should help. Then get it to the people who need to sign the
report and then to the Special Olympic office.

It's done a few weeks early but we always try to get it done early.
