    Change of plans. Today, I was going to head back to the gym.  But, my left leg has started to feel spongy just like my right leg, except in a different spot.    It’s getting to be kind of painful to walk any distance.   —  Guessing it’s pulled muscles from the 70+ km I did Read more

    This is day two of my Groupon extravaganza. My little Hoosier hometown and surrounding areas aren’t big on Groupon.    This place in Florida is.    My blessed sister has gotten into a habit of buying Groupons for me for various relaxation and well-being services. For example, yesterday I met Dustin and Jessie, his wife.  Read more

    I passed through Macy’s last night while chasing down a Snover. (Yeah, yeah.   I play Pokemon Go.  So what?) Anyway, I saw these black sequin boots.  From toe tip to high heel to knees, they were nothing but plastic black sequins.   You know what I’m talking about, right?   It’s not beads, but flat plastic disks.  Read more

    There’s nothing wrong with having an off day, is there? Silly question, I know.  I know it’s okay, but I always wonder if it’s okay. Well, if it’s okay for – me – to have an off day. Lee’s visit has left fairly melancholy. While this is a somewhat familiar mindstate at home, this is Read more

    Here I sit, like a twit – waiting on the air conditioner guy from the soon to be defunct Sears. I have no energy today. I did a lot yesterday.    There’s still a lot to do, just a slightly lesser amount.  I just don’t know what my deal is.    It’s practically noon and Read more

    Back in Florida. This is my third whole day. Saturday was my first, which we ran around going places and to a park. On Sunday, we went to Wagon Wheel, visited the Awesome Jean, and went to another park. I’m going to go to a lot of parks while I’m here and I’m a-okay with Read more

    Well, today has been pretty much a bust. It hasn’t rained or snowed, although I’m sure it’s freezing out there. I’m half packed and spent most of the day napping. While lounging around the house is some people’s picture of a perfect day, I find it fairly madding.  I feel like I have to be Read more

    Wednesday –  Cold – like the high of the mid to low 30s.  That’s about zero degrees in Celsius.  Good times. I think I drove the truck for the last time today.  Well, the last time for a couple of months.   It’s supposed to snow and rain tomorrow.   I don’t really have a viable reason Read more

    I’m exhausted. What’s with the pink? There were pink walls, pink robes (the ones that tie in the front), and pink plastic bags. There was pink wrapped candy if I cared to pick any up. The pictures where ugly pink flowers. Pink. Pink. Pink. Pink. I get it.   Breast cancer awareness is a pink ribbon, Read more

    Admittedly, I’ve made the past couple of days harder on myself than I needed to be. The Wednesday routine mammogram turned up something.  This something was so something that they called me back on Thursday for additional pictures. Neither I nor my doctors are sure what it is yet, but I have two theories. A:  Read more
