Shoveled out
My son insisted on coming over this a.m. and doing the parking pad so I am all shoveled out. I didn’t want him to because he had to stay at his work overnight (an assisted living facility) and h...
Ready for the snow
I am as ready as I can be for the snow storm which is expected to bring a foot or more of snow starting mid day into Thursday a.m. along with sleet and winds. Shovels, deck furniture in, porch ro...
Snowstorm coming
Between Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning the forecast is for a foot or more of snow, so glad I am not working as quite doubtful the courthouse would close. My only concern is going to a ...
Letting go
I have been selling his cds and today someone came for the amps and guitars. It is hard but I have to do it. I know he could never come back (nor do I expect him to try) but it is still hard. ...
X-ray results
Just what I needed! X-ray showed dilated colon in my mid section and left upper quadrant with moderate colonic fecal loading thru descending colon and rectum (taken from the results itself). Re...
Not a good day
First off, dreamt about the other woman and I was punching and squeezing her face her face. I try not to think about them, night’s are hard. I fall asleep but then wake up and sometimes cannot...
Son and covid
Last night my son had to interact with the resident who tested positive for covid as none of the night staff felt comfortable doing it. He had to attend to them twice and had all the protective ...
Covid
My son and DIL work at an assisted living place. A little over two weeks ago they had two staff members test positive. This past Sunday, just when they thought things were easing up, another st...
Applied for unemployment
Have no idea what is up with my job. They have never reached out to me, I have always contacted them. Last I talked to my direct supervisor was the beginning of October and she said court was s...
Soooo
How do you get over someone. Someone with whom you shared almost 25 years with, good years up until a few years ago when faced with stress from parents dying, health issues, friendships ending. ...
A week
It’s been a week since he left and I have not had any contact with him. I did make the mistake over the weekend of seeing his FB—he hasn’t changed anything other than unblocking her. I was able...
Trying to come to grips
It is very hard coming to grips with things and realizing that Jeff does not share the same sense of values as me. I thought he valued marriage but his take is that if it isn’t working anymore t...
Long overdue
This is a very long overdue entry and now when I thought my life was getting back on track, everything fell apart. Was able to finally move back in the house August 1 altho there were some minor ...
Apartment
It is really nice, if only it had gas cooking, I would be really tempted to stay! I grew up with electric cooking and my house had electric til we converted to gas so I could convert back I gues...
Good and bad
The good is that insurance found, per my suggestion, a really nice 3 bedroom apartment that if it had gas cooking, I would be tempted to stay 😆😆. Short-term lease is for 4 months and hopefully wi...
Fire update
To say it has been overwhelming is an understatement. The whole upstairs of the house has to be gutted. There is a company for clean up, one for clothing, electronics, dishes, a company that wi...
World blew upin smoke
Yes, my world literally blew up in smoke Saturday night. My house had an electrical fire issuing from the bathroom vent. Luckily I smelled something funny, checked things out, still smelled som...
Fryeburg fair
Last weekend I went with my daughter, the grands, PrincessL’s boyefriend and my daughter’s bf to the fair. It was pretty nice, most definitely not like the “great Allentown fair” in my town. We...
Stuffed and exhausted
Just came back from a smorgasbord in Amish country that my aunt and uncle took me to in celebration of my retirement and I am stuffed. We also went to some stores associated with the restaurant ...
I am a survivor
Five years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer and needed a mastectomy. Initially it was just the one breast but after thinking things over decided to have a double. I have not regretted tha...
Gorgeous day
Such a glorious day for the last Saturday of summer. Sunny, not too hot, just a gorgeous day. Went for a 10 mile bike ride, by myself altho there were other bikers on the trail. Went along the ...
This is retirement?
Only have been retired a week and I have been busier than ever! There has not been one day that I haven’t had something scheduled and it looks like this week up to Wednesday is going to be the s...
First "official" day of retirement
Didn’t sleep in but then again I don’t sleep very well to begin with. For my first day of official retirement, a friend and I went to NY City. We just walked around enjoying the sights, went to...
Retired!
Today was my last day and I am fficiallynretired altho I will be going back on a part-time basis in about 6 weeks so I am looking at this as an extended vacation. Retiring is bittersweet because...
Two more to go.
Of work that is. They had a surprise lunch for me today which was very nice. A few weeks ago we had talked about a crock pot soup day and I had said to do it before i retired and we had tentati...
