Catching up in Just the ordinary things
Things have settled down a bit. J isn't being as rude as before, but I'm still a bit twitchy. I don't like riding this roller coaster at all. I am working at getting the living room cleaned up....
Dealing with the opposite sex... in Just the ordinary things
Last night I really screwed up dinner, and J has been pulling the silent, 'you are invisible' treatment. It's enough to make me want to slap him around a room a few times. But he would probably e...
Today has gone far better than I hoped. in Just the ordinary things
It's been a hectic day, but it's not bad. The repairmen came today, and had the job finished within two hours -- now we have a new water softener and a reverse osmosis filter for the kitchen. We'...
Miserable day in Just the ordinary things
It has not been a good day. At all. Woke up deprived of sleep, and with a headache to boot. I think of a lot of it has to do with pollen -- it's all over the place around here, and even having th...
The repairmen cometh in Just the ordinary things
Yep, the water softener saga is nearly over -- the repairmen are coming the day after tomorrow, and with luck, it will all be done soon, and I will never have to cope with it again. Thank god. I'...
Endless circles in Just the ordinary things
I am getting terrible at staying updated here. There just isn't anything happening in my life right now. Well, annoyances with J not getting a vital house repair done -- the water softener needs ...
Me and Mother's day, not a pretty picture in Just the ordinary things
Most folks welcome holidays such as Mother's and Father's day. It's a time to treat your parents, have a great dinner, and with luck, a happy memory for everyone to look back on with pleasure. Bu...
A busy day for me in Just the ordinary things
Today was a rather busy one for me. I am, more or less, homebound, due to the fact that I can't see very well any more and I need a cane to help keep me from falling. Every six months, my partner...
A question in Just the ordinary things
I am trying to learn how to make Korean food -- it always looks so yummy on the Kdramas that I watch. I have a couple of cookbooks, but the exotic ingredients have thrown me for a loop. Namely, I...
Yep. I've been away a bit. Sorry about that. in Just the ordinary things
I've been busy on bubblews lately, building up a heap of reviews so that I can get a decent revenue stream going so I won't loose my break on my spenddown. It's complicated. And I've been dealing...
t's been one of those days. I slept very badly last night, I think I only got a few hours, and so by the time that morning rolled around, I was feeling pretty ragged. Still I was able to get up a...
Argh. One of those days. in Just the ordinary things
It's been one of those days. Ache terribly, quite a bit of pain today, so I'm taking it a bit easier. Scheduling screwup at the centre, so I have to go back in tomorrow for the psychiatrist and m...
No, I'm not watching the Oscars in Just the ordinary things
Instead I started in on season two of House of Cards, and OMG, what an opening! I won't say what happens, but it was a shocker. I can see why this series is getting plenty of acclaim -- and right...
Russia, House of Cards, and the like in Just the ordinary things
Mu is recovering nicely, although not as vocal as usual. Poor guy. We have to pill and medicate him twice a day, and the vet had to remove yet another tooth. I feel terrible, but also he's sevent...
Licking my wounds in Just the ordinary things
Still smarting and angry about the Epinions debacle. It still hurts, but there's very little that I can do about it all. In the meantime, I'll keep posting my reviews at Booklikes and Goodreads. ...
Bad news for me. in Just the ordinary things
I just found out that the Epinions.com site is shutting down -- as of today, you can't review, post, anything, and as they say that's all folks! I know to many of you this sounds like something p...
Mu the Terrible in Just the ordinary things
We've found out what is going on with Mu -- hyperthyroidism. So now we are giving him pills, and hoping that it will at least stabilizing him. And I hope, making him comfortable, as he tends to w...
Today was the horrible, nasty vet day. in Just the ordinary things
All three of the cats were loaded up into their carriers with a great deal of chasing and drama, and with great howls of despair (which dropped property values as we drove past) it was off to the...
Guess what, it's SNOWING again. in Just the ordinary things
I had my meeting with my therapist this morning, which went pretty well. Then J and I went on up to the local megamart to get the groceries. It was fine then, no rain, roads nice and dry, and the...
And, dammit, it's snowing again. in Just the ordinary things
It's snowing again. How much more can we take before going absolutely nuts? I am praying that J brings home dinner tonight, as I really don't want to cook. I don't mind it, but it would be nice t...
Some thoughts in Just the ordinary things
A few of the folks that I follow from around here have mentioned cabin fever. Oh I have, I know I do -- this endless cycle of snow that we're being plagued with is making it nearly impossible for...
And that's right, you guessed it, more snow! in Just the ordinary things
Flurries mostly today. The mailbox (my gauge to determine snow depth) is covered to just under the box. I think this is the most snow that I've seen since moving here to the NE. Oy. Now reading ...
It's official: I have had enough of winter in Just the ordinary things
I am so sick and tired of winter. This morning, J couldn't get to his job -- the snow on the road didn't get plowed overnight, and it was deep. Even though his job was pleading for people to come...
Last couple of days. in Just the ordinary things
Wednesday I was able to meet with my new psychiatrist, Dr. G. I am still getting used to being in a new place, and meeting with new people. It's a bit jarring. Dr. G was very understanding, and l...
Still cold, still iced over in Just the ordinary things
It's been another cold, nasty day here on the Hudson. C'mon spring! Still reading The Thief of Time and Packing for Mars. Anyone who is interested space, and getting out there, should read that l...
