Starting to get my life back after this sickness. Hiking with Candy today on Oak Hill this morning. It should be pretty. On Monday I'm getting this bothersome tooth out. I moved back in with Dave last night and gave up isolating in my room. Next week I hope to get my covid and flu shots. Next month I'll see about getting the cataracts taken care of ( Read more... )

I'm up early this morning so there's time for writing before I start my day for real. I have a dental appointment (cleaning and check up) today that I really would like to go to because of the toothache I had last week but I don't know if I should go with this cold. I need to call them as soon as the office opens at 8 and see if they still want me ( Read more... )

Decided to not even try to hike today. It's supposed to storm on and off all day, plus I would like to spend time with Dave. It's our anniversary today. Though I think the only thing on his mind is his garden. Now there is a little rabbit getting in there and eating up things. The rabbit is small enough that he goes right though the fence. Dave ( Read more... )

Last I wrote here was on Sunday. On Monday Candy and I biked around Lake Wilhelm. I was kind of dreading it. It is HARD to do Wilhelm (I think) so many hills to go up. I guess I don't like the sensation of having my heart pump and being out of breath. But Candy challenges me and I try to not be a wimp so we did it. This spring when I first got ( Read more... )

We watched Stan and Ollie (2018) last night and really enjoyed it. I always did like Laurel and Hardy. I even named my 2 pet turtles when I was a kid after them. Fun to see some of the old skits and learn more about their real life characters. Pretty sweet really ( Read more... )

I wish I had a house cleaner but I don't. Well, I do - but it's me. Darn. I cleaned before company came for Easter dinner and it looks like another cleaning would be nice already. I think it gets dirty fast cause of having the 2 dogs and we don't take off our shoes when we come in the house - that would just be very annoying to have to do - the ( Read more... )

Posting this with my new little keyboard and tablet this morning. Happy Labor Day. This was the day that Ma Boden went into labor delivering Dave 67 years ago. I think she always enjoyed being able to say that, (she was laboring on Labor Day) and this year his birthday actually falls on the holiday like it did the year he was born ( Read more... )

...that is even a bit early for me. Though I did go to bed at 9 last night. I've been reading Oliver Sacks at bedtime - Uncle Tungsten: Memories of a Chemical Boyhood‎. Lots of scientific references that I barely understand but I love reading about how excited he was to learn these things as a kid. I have liked every book I have ever read of his. ( Read more... )
