    Nannie is so happy with the clothes I put on her, that she keeps showing me how the colors of her jerseys coordinate. 🙄 .....As if I didn't know. I just keep responding each time, "Yes, it's...

    The effects of the Prednisone on my joints was MAHvelous, but they have started twinging again 🙁. Nothing severe, but I again have a hitch in my git-along. I am still QUITE itchy on my neck,...

    SO! I did not get the dishes done yet, but did get the stuff in LR and Dr organized for future disposal and dispersal. And I vac'd both rooms plus the kitchen and hallway. Tweety, it's not so...

    One hour later, almost all done in the LR and Dr.....just have to vacuum, and then it'll stay that way until the next 'purge' happens. 😊 There's a bunch of stuff I don't particularly want, and I...

    Gonna have a quiet, Nannie-free afternoon, 😋 about which I am ecstatic. Having my 2nd cup of coffee, after which I am going to go up to the 'formal' living-room and dining room to reorganize...

    It took me forever to fall asleep, and then I slept late. I've been on line for a little while, catching up with what's going on in the world. Pretty depressing for the most part. Also time-consuming,...

    dianah, please repeat the recipe for making those cheese crackers. I didn't make note of it when it first came up, but now whenever they are mentioned, my mouth starts watering. ......so, 'time and...

    Low to mid 60's, cloudy, and scattered, intermittent rain showers. It is 9 AM. What the heck am I doing up and awake? I got up to pee, then had a hankering for some coffee, and fed Momo breakfast....

    I have just finished a word search puzzle, where I encountered "Ado Annie" and found out she was a character from OKLAHOMA. I never knew the origin of your screen name, Ado! Ya learn sumpthin' new...

    Nannie has not stopped fiddling with her sweater AT ALL today. Whenever I happened to glance over at her she was arranging and rearranging her sleeves. And she has NOT closed her eyes to doze for even...

    3 more days of Prednisone, and I'm done. The gypsies have a REAL RESPECT for Prednisone; like, whatever that insurance or investment company was that advertised, "When ___?___ talks, everyone listens"...

    Gouda🧀 Gnus 🐂 : Nannie has been asleep for 3 + 1/2 hours, I'm doing a small load of laundry that is just used dish-towels that have "accrued", along with those dishes. And now the dishes are...

    How can it be 72 degrees but with a "feels like" temp of 84 degrees? Especially since the humidity is only 35% ? Going to be partly, then mostly cloudy. No rain predicted. Interesting way Nannie...

    So, two hours went by in a blink, after I put down the laptop. 😴 ZZzzzzzzz! I have an interesting red mark (part of 'the' rash) on my inner right wrist......it is a heart shape, right next to...

    Mid-70's today, but right now it is 64 degrees. I woke up at 9 AM, fed Momo, made coffee, took my pills (except for the prednisone which I will take with some food in a little while.) I may have to...

    Oh, just got my labs back from the blood draw after the doc's appt. Not too bad, really! My HDL is slightly low and my LDL is slightly high, but the report said they were WNL and "near optimal". And...

    Tweety, I think I actually DID fall out of bed once sometime in the last year or two. I know it was kind of weird to wake up on the floor saying "WHAT??" Not something us big kids are known for,...

    My breakfast? Why thank you for asking! It was tough to make myself eat as early as I did (due to food required when taking Prednisone). I usually eat breakfast and lunch at 3 PM! I had an avocado...

    The horror-scopes are unsettling for today: *I* am supposed to tamp down the flash of rage that threatens to take me over today. Great! And step-dgt is supposed to "reach the peak of her intelligence...

    It's morning and I am showered and shampoo'd. I have about an hour before I have to leave for the doc's appt. The left fore arm rash has improved, in that it is not raised like it was, but it is...

    I made the phone calls 'early' (for me!) which means before noontime. Fortunately the bank card people say there have been no charges on the card since I used it on Friday, so that's good....

    Yeah I was 'shingle shot' last year; plus have had every shot for everything that is available to get! I really think this is some kind of reaction, like an allergy. My first thought was measles, but...

    Y'hallow Mundaie, which this week is NOT a day for Nannie to go to daycare. SiL called me last evening to ask if it would be okay if she didn't take Nannie to daycare today, but she will take her...
