  • What I did today (8/24)

    Well, I got up around 6 am after a fairly restless night. I’m not sure why I couldn’t sleep.    I was fairly exhausted when I got out of the shower. The day before was kind of irritable. I hadn’t made some progress on this game despite my brother’s and mine best efforts. My brother has also Read more

  • Was ready to go

    It’s no secret that I was in sorry shape before going to the House. My weight had dipped below 80 pounds, some of that didn’t count because my legs below my knees where so bloated, not to mention how much the steel in my back weighs.  My hair, which I think is one of my Read more

  • Classes at the House

    I’ve been thinking a lot about the House lately. It’s probably because the country fair is coming up and I was shipped of about a week after it left. Dr. U said something about checking my osteoporosis and provided me a date of my last one… which happened in the House.  Apparently, for insurance to pay, Read more

  • Little lost boy

    It’s been raining here. –  I mean, really raining.   Like three inches here and four inches in another county. It hasn’t gotten so bad that the highway has closed, but cars have made some nice water wings going through it. I like the rain.   I like the thunder. I don’t think people understand or respect Read more

  • I saw Hereditary yesterday. It was a 1:10 showing and about a handful of people where there.   One was a child – a girl I think – maybe 13ish.  She was sitting behind me and, as far as I know, watched the whole thing. This was my third movie I’ve treated myself to in the Read more

  • bash, bash, bash

    Look, okay, I know that I have quite a few health problems. I’m really very aware of them, what’s going on, and what the future could hold. Heck, at this point, I probably could almost be a doctor. I’ve been poked and prodded in just about every imaginable way over the past two years.  I’m getting to Read more

  • Okay, yesterday I had a rather good eating day. I limited myself and didn’t really overeat. –  I fell off the wagon a little when I saw there was Wheat Chex. Oddly enough, Wheaties is probably one of my top 3 cereals.   I just like the taste.  Wheat Chex mostly has the same taste, but it Read more

  • Mother’s Day

    This year has been particularly difficult on my mom. She’s homebound, probably in some pain, and can’t do yard work or do a garden, which some of her favorite things in the world. After everything and yadda yadda yadda, I’m glad she’s still with me, despite how ornery she is.     I know she’s ornery.   It Read more

  • A rocky vent

    There’s this odd phenomena happening.   From my limited observations, this could be a global issue.  All I know is that it has happened in my home town, surrounding towns, and even in Florida. I think this happens when a bunch of people gather who have to much time, money, and misplaced good intentions. I really Read more

  • … and I walked.

    Since coming to Florida, I’m guessing that I’ve walked between five and 13-ish miles a day, save the one day that it was raining and a couple of days I stayed in to catch up on work. –   My mileage may vary, as I still can’t find the wire to charge the Fitbit, but today’s Read more
