A better day
Got together with a couple of friends last night and I feel better today. Found out that the AL resident was tested again and she does NOT have Covid so that made me feel better as well. Schedule...
Not a good day
Had a bad spot of pain today on my left side. Best way to describe it would be like a bad side sticker. I had taken a muscle relaxer and Tylenol but it was slow to kick in. To make matters wor...
Worried

Assisted living drama
The residents are very nice, some I like better than others. Have already pinpointed the ones who are complainers, the ones who are nosy rosies, and the ones who are just sad. There are a total...
Surgery
Scheduled the hysterectomy for Friday, March 26. Hoping I will be as fortunate as I was with the breast cancer and treatment will be minimal. Will have to wait two weeks after to find out the r...
Home
Released from the hospital late yesterday afternoon. They think my shoulder/neck pain is muscular altho I do need to follow up with a neurologist in about 6 weeks just to keep an eye on things. ...
Room with a view
Nice view from my room on the 7th floor of the hospital. I went to the ER Friday morning and have been here ever since. I went in because I had a knife like pain by my heart and also in my shou...
Good/Not so good/angry
All those applied to yesterday. The good was that I picked up two shifts at the AL place. Not so good is I finally heard from one of the supervisors. She apologized for not getting back to me ...
2nd shot
Had the 2nd shot yesterday and am feeling fine. We were told to drink a lot of water which I did but then of course I was going to the bathroom a lot, lol! I have developed another issue and am ...
Second shot today

From the AL place and it was more than I expected! I worked 11 days for about 2 and 1/2 hours each day. Supposed to work from 4 to 7 but most days we were done by 6:30 and I couldn’t justify si...
Not too sore
I walked out to the store yesterday dodging sidewalks that were not shoveled, then came back and cleaned my car off, shoveled my back walk and a bit of my deck. I was out from 12 to 2:30 and onl...

Saw the baby
Took precautions with wearing a mask and when I held her, my daughter had me lay a blanket over my clothes. OMG, ana is sooooo tiny but she has a LOT of dark brown hair and is so, so cute. She ...
Sad blast from the past.
