  1. No Stars In My Eyes

    Saturday March 15th 2025

    Forgot to mention Nannie's spot-on horror-scope for today: "You're kind of in a bind, as you don't exactly know what's going on...." TOOOOO true! Mine sez there may be strained relationships...

    Home on the Range, so to speak-----It's going to be cloudy all day ( I'll leave out the 'discouraging words') and in the lower to mid-70's. Tomorrow is the day we are supposed to 'experience the...

    Word to the wise: NEVER say the word "out" in any sentence or any context spoken at, to, or around Nannie. BiL said he was going out to power wash the back wall and Nannie said "Can I go, too?" He...

    Nannie is conked out in her recliner with her head tipped over on her right shoulder in spite of how I try to support it. I still have not found the neck roll I had purchased for her....nobody knows...

    Going to be in the mid-to-high 70's and partly cloudy. It's okay, even though I don't care for summertime weather....at least it isn't high 80;s or in the 90's. That's my one silver lining so far...

    I have discovered a new side-effect of arthritis! It goes like this: Anytime I get up off the sofa to do something for Nannie or the house (multiple-multiple-MULTIPLE times!), Nannie asks so sweetly...

    Although it feels like Saturday, I know it is only Toozdae. Nothing planned, but have to put my laundry in the dryer, and of course there are the omnipresent dirty dishes in the kitchen sink. Wish it...

    Today's forecast is supposedly going to be what yesterday's forecast was supposed to be, but which didn't happen yesterday. Clear on that? Momo ate her breakfast just before we went to bed at 10...

    My back and knees feel about 70% better now. Still sore but not hobbling me quite so much. Naturally I have done laundry today because Nannie is so "generous" with her urine. As Nannie...

    The sun is trying to shine, but the weather report sez 53 degrees and rain. I am so achey I can't stand it; I woke up in the middle of the night and put a wrap on my lower back (which is now...

    PS: Nannie's horror-scope sez her "energy is all riled up, so get out there and find a party!" EeeeeeYIKES!

    Sunny, 70 degrees, and windy off and on. Her's a complaint, but it is a relatively new-ish one! Why have the drugstores stopped stocking Capsaicin topical cream and the roll-on Capsaicin? All I...

    Yes, a Sisyphean Domestic Cinderella.(with no Grand Ballroom Dance to attend!) No wonder my legs ache after a day of all that pushing uphill! And where is the 'sweat equity' of that?! One hour...

    Gouda Aphternoooon. According to some story I just read on-line, today is a day for all folks to 'reject' screens....ie, turn off and don't use cellphones or laptops to communicate. How the heck...

    When I woke up this morning at 10 AM, I MADE myself stay awake. Yes, I certainly would be able to sleep more if I closed my eyes, but getting up at 2 PM yesterday was AWFUL! So I am trying to make a...

    Computer (or All Nurses site?) wasn't cooperating when I tried to post earlier. First of all, last night I MUST have been a LOT more tired than I knew. Nannie only got up twice last night. Then...

    Better to be a RESCUE ANNIE instead of a "resuscitation Annie"! Sorry, I could not resist making that comment! But good for you for keeping her off the ground~ (That's a pretty hard wind to knock...

    Nannie's horror-scope today said "Sometimes you end up in an experience where you don't know what you are doing." AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Nailed it right on the head! So, here it is Tuesday...

    Geeze-beeze-louize! I started by washing the dishes. Then I saw the sight I have been ignoring and trying NOT to see, all the storage bowls and covers heaped in every-which-way in the cupboards. So I...

    Low to mid-50's and sunny today. The itinerary is the usual: dishes, laundry, trash. I get to go pick up Nannie from daycare around 4-4:30 PM. Can't get much more exciting for a "day...

    WOW! Great, and a bit strange, ice sculptures! Is the squirrel aiming a gun? At first I thought it might be that it was playing a stringed instrument, and maybe the owls were dancing to its music?...

    Nope, SiL and her dgt and mother are going out to play BINGO! She kept apologizing to me, but I told her it was okay, I was just trying to figure out if I needed to take Nannie out with me. And I...
