    New Years Day January 1st 2025

    Happy New Year! (I sure hope it will be!) Slept HARD until noon; after I got dressed and started out of my room to go down the stairs, there was Nannie who had come upstairs, she was holding on...

    Update......after all of that, including the mini-enema................absolutely NO results. But, I guess we got a lot of exercise in going back and forth, and back and forth, and back and forth, x3....

    So far, in the last hour, I have had to get Nannie up to the bathroom SIX TIMES because she thinks she has to have a BM. But her mind and body are not working together on this. She sits on the toilet...

    Hullo~ It is a gray and dreary day, with wind tossing dead leaves everywhere like schools of fish all whirling together in water. Which caused Nannie to say, "G-o-o-o-o-o-d grief! I woke up...

    Aaaaahhhh! A quiet house! ............................................................................If only it doesn't have to end when I bring Nannie back later this afternoon! I will have to leave...

    I'd have to say that -20 degrees is actually an exceptionally RUDE COLD SNAP! I gotta say, I mean, EGADS! 😳 <BUT, if you open your eyes this wide outside, your eyeballs would instantly crack...

    What's the buzz for today? The usual: laundry, dishes, and trash gathering. It amazes me how much trash two people and a dog can make.....but *I* am not the one who fills up the wastebaskets with used...

    RATZ. No sneaking upstairs to putter around. Nanny keeps "coming to" periodically, waking herself up by talking in her sleep, then squinting at me to find out what's going on. What IS going on??...

    50 degrees and raining. Tomorrow it will get up to a whopping 60 degrees and still more rain. // Momo woke me up at 11 AM, but I managed to ignore her until 11:30 AM. After I got dressed and came...

    I am up and dressed, but not necessarily awake. Nannie came out of the bedroom as I was coming downstairs, but I am making her wait in the recliner while I pull myself together. I am working on a cup...

    Christmas Day Wed December 25th 2024

    SiL and BiL gave me a gift certificate for a 75 minute Swedish massage! 😳 I've never had a 'real' massage. Not sure of when I might schedule it; it'll have to be sometime in January, when...

    Christmas Day Wed December 25th 2024

    Merry, Happy and all that good stuff! Had a friend once who referred to all this as "Happy Horror Days", which seems more appropriate for Halloween! Have to get Nannie up; we are due at...

    Christmas Eve Tuesday December 24 2024

    I must admit I have washed SOME of my bad attitude away in the shower, and now that my hair is "good", I feel better and am a happier camper than I was an hour and a half ago! Talking about good...

    Christmas Eve Tuesday December 24 2024

    I have to shampoo my hair; it's now or never! Will get in the shower in a minute so I can get it done before I have to go get Nannie up out of bed. She did that on her own again last night.....twice!...

    OMG, I seriously need to re-boot my brain! I have been thinking that Thursday is Christmas, and SiL just informed me it is Wednesday! Maybe I can get a re-set as a Christmas gift? SiL keeps saying,...

    Rose, don't change your screen name to 'somebody'! First of all, I have had ONE dead faint only once in my life and it was sooooo WEIRD! So, if you don't mind, I'd rather not do that again. Having TWO...

    Joe~ Warmer, in the mid-30's? YIKES! I was looking at our weather report, and was just thrilled that our high 'warm' temp today will be 41 degrees. {And before Nannie ever gets up and asks, .....NO,...

    Yeah, it was Jon Voight, as the paralyzed veteran returning from the war, in Coming Home. I worked with quads and Paras in my first nursing job at MGH (in 'Bahstin' or 'Bawstenn'.) so I was really...

    Okay, I'm serious, Tweety and j22, you are going to have a good day today! Sounds like yesterday was a total bust for y'all. So, No More! I mean it! Got up twice to put Nannie back to bed during...

    Oh WOE is me! This morning, my Keurig coffee-maker has given up the ghost; the pod swelled up and spewed coffee grounds, and only dripped a little water. All the selection lights came back on...

    I accidentally found the County Animal Shelter today, so was finally able to donate that huge trash bag full of blankets and towels that I have been driving around for over a week. And after I took a...
