I’m running late because I’ve been pretty busy today.

I feel so-so, but not super good.

Learning to take each day as it comes.

The problem with Walgreens is not yet addressed.  They seem to be dawdling.

That’s first on the list for tomorrow.

One of the things I’ve got to do is establish some sort of schedule.  Truly, some days I feel like I’m really floundering, but maybe that is par for the course.

Widowhood stinks.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

One of my worst traits is to overthink and worry about things.  It’s a really bad fault and I honestly try very hard not to do it, but it rears it’s ugly head from time to time.

Today I had to go to the store and I was already slightly semi-frantic trying to figure out what I would do if my car wouldn’t start.  It’s been over a week since I used the car and I was absolutely certain it would not start.  We’ve had a number of pretty cold nights .  But lo and behold when I turned the key, it started right up.  Thank you, Lord.

That meant I had to take my ride–so I took a trip around town and up by the hospital.  It was a good hour.

The changes they are making in this town are not for the better (are they ever?).

Then after that and having lunch, it was time for my monthly call to Walgreens.  I only take one prescription, and I just wanted to make sure I would have the prescription on time.  It is a once a day preparation, to be taken at the same time every day.  I was on hold for close to half an hour, then when I got to the pharmacist she told me they were out of it and had to order it.  Before I could say another word, we were cut off.  I did not have it in my heart to go through the same rigmarole again, so I’ll let that go until tomorrow.

By this time it was fairly late in the afternoon.

Hence the lack of posts today.

At least my car started and that was a big worry.

Have a good night all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

Can’t figure out why, but I can’t.

Yesterday was good, today not so good.

I did respond the the Jury Duty request for Lee, and the woman who I spoke to inactivated his account and will send me a form to fill out.  Other than that I don’t have to do anything more.

Good.

But there were other things I wanted to do, but just did not have the energy.

Guess I’ll just take it as it comes.

I do have a few WordPress issues that I want to ask Jill about, but I have to have a clear head for that, so that did not happen today.

Maybe tomorrow.

Other than that…

Have a good night all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

This day was only so-so for the best part of it.

Finally, this afternoon, I bit the bullet and started on a particularly onerous task that I have just dreaded even starting.  Now that it is underway, the whole resistance business is gone.

Sometimes a person can just be their own worst enemy.

I will be able to finish that job tomorrow and move on to something else.

There’s a great deal to be done, but I feel that getting over that particular hump was a major achievement.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

I always get hit with schiff like this on the weekends,  when I can’t do anything about it.

I brought in yesterdays mail and there was a summons for Lee for jury duty.  I went online to fill out the form and there was no way of doing the farshstunkener thing.  There was no place where I could indicate that he was deceased.  It was a mess, so I have to call them on Monday.  It is a true pain to have to wait til Monday–it will bug me all weekend.

Then, this afternoon while I was working online, I realized I had not used my inhaler.  The first time I got messed up was a couple of weeks ago when I went to the doctor.  I was sitting outside, waiting for the taxi when I realized I had not used my inhaler that morning.  By then it was one in the afternoon.  I came back in the house and took it, but I have to change the dose time in 15 minute increments to get it back to the usual time I take it.  That was a total first.  Well today was the second time I screwed up.  I normally would take that around 7 in the morning.  So now I can start all over backing up the time in small increments.  You cannot take more than one dose per day, same time every day.  The 15 minute adjustment is acceptable.

Plus I had zero energy all day.

I wonder why?

I know I am always saying tomorrow will be better, but that’s really what I must say.

I also believe it.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

Woke up today feeling fine and ambitious.

Then about ten thirty, my wheels fell off.

I know why–I had interrupted sleep last night.  I woke up around 2 am and could not get back to sleep.  That happens every once in a while and it’s a real pain.  I’m very tired after supper and go to bed really early.  That pattern started when Lee got so sick.  I usually do fine and wake up nice and early,  but last night was not one of those nights.  I also have to sleep with a light on, and the computer telling me stories.  If I tried (as is strongly recommended by those who know) to sleep in a dark, silent environment I would never sleep.  Do any of you do this?  I’d love to know.

Hey, everybody’s different.

I managed to drag myself through the day without sleeping, so hopefully things should be back to normal (whatever that is) tonight.

I only have about 6 or 7 major tasks left–but they are big ones that will not be able to be finished in a day or two.   More like weeks.

Upward and onward.

Life goes on.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

Some days are better than others (like with most folks) and today was not too bad at all.

One silly mishap, though.  At lunch, I decided to have a nice brioche roll with a couple of little balls of fresh mozzarella on it.  I took a good sized bite and one of the little balls of cheese popped out and disappeared.  I usually eat at the computer, so I looked under the hutch, also in a couple of pairs of shoes that were under there, all around my chair, and over by the bookcase.  It was gone like it had never existed.  You probably remember when I was talking about my mice woes– the last thing I want to do (since they seem to have departed) is to set a nice buffet out for them.  O boy! Cheese!  A little later on I looked under the hutch with my powerful flashlight and found the culprit nestled up against one of the hutch wheels.  That was my biggest problem today and that was nothing.

I’ve got some plans for tomorrow.

We’ll see how that works out.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

First, let me say I am not a person prone to depression.  Let’s get that out of the way.  What I am trying to describe is not depression of any sort.

I was fine this morning, did a few things, then around noon I just started to feel really blah.  That’s a dumb word, but it feels about right.  Physically I feel fine, but a little edgy–like something is bothering me, but I don’t know what.  Did you ever feel like that?  It’s a new thing and certainly is not at a high level, but it made me feel uncomfortable.  That’s why I took refuge in posting those delightful animal pictures.  They always manage to raise my spirits and divert my mind to pleasant things.

I talked to my daughter this morning, and to my friend Carol.  All OK there.  I will probably talk to my daughter again when she leaves work.  I couldn’t reach my friend this afternoon, but she’s probably still out with her husband.

I am also not a person who believes much in premonitions or anything of that sort.

Just have to live with it, I guess.

Wish I had some pleasant or exciting news to share with you, but thankfully, it’s been quiet.

If anything turns up relating to this I will let you know.

Have a good night all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

I was super busy, being as I felt really well, so I had to catch up on a lot of things that I had bumped over the last couple of days.

One of the important things was picking my new prescription drug coverage plan for next year.  That took some time.

A lot of what I did today does not have to be repeated, so there’ll be time for me to get a half-decent number of posts tomorrow.

I hope everybody is feeling well and rolling along.

Have a good night all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.
