Monday, Monday

Hah! I beat the WordPress weekly reminder 🙂

So, today is Monday and it’s Martin Luther King Day.

I had an appointment across town near St Anthony’s this morning, and decided to call a taxi early !

Reason being….all kinds of streets and their intersections are blocked off ! I was not able to ride my Scoot over there, because of getting stuck on the way back by all the blockades.

All turned out well, anyway. It’s just the cost of the taxi , round trip.

I have had lunch, checked my two email accounts, straightened up around  my place, stood watch at the front desk for the desk clerk while she took a  bathroom break, and called a friend who is out of the area.

Now I’m waiting on a return call from a friend , Charlie, who will go up with me to Gateway Shopping Center. I need several items from there, and also need to look around. Office Depot is my most very favorite shopping  retail store.

 

Snooki Gets Tested for Her Ethnicity

This is something I have always wanted to do. I have always been curious about who I am and where I came from. Snooki and hubby and baby are so beautiful !

I never watched the tv show, Jersey Shore, but  could’nt help but be kept up with the show by tv interviews and internet goings on, lol 🙂

Here’s To The Best Stuff for 2014 !

My sister, Janet and I are not really close, but we are ‘close.’ In heart. We have decided to call each other more this year. In fact, it was my sis who suggested it ! 🙂 That makes me happy! 🙂 Here here ! Cheers !

 I wonder who was sitting here ?

FREEDOM IS NOT FREE .

Monday Monday

I’m all poo-ed out tonight.  I did several banking changes this morning, then came home and made a light lunch and had a cup of decaf gree tea.

 Later on around 1:00p.m. I took the bus downtown and transferred to another one that took me to Office Depot. I love that store! All I bought were some more DVD discs and some cases for them though. I played with the new Toshiba Thrive Tablet, I lovesss that marvelous grownup toy!

 I arrived back home at 4:00p.m. and then Scoot and I went to the grocery store and I bought a few food items. I still did’nt get that cake baked ! Too tired out. Good night , have a blessed one. 🙂

Twitter and WordPress

I cannot seem to get Twitter over there on my sidebar! I have done everything correctly, I think. Haha, “I think”  are the key words here!

Oh well, I don’t have time to search and figure this out now, as I’m about to cook breakfast and hop in the shower, and then Scoot and I will drive over to the professional building for a second appointment ( follow-up) with my new endocrinologist.

It’s Friday and It’s Payday!

Yay ! It’s finally here, payday.  🙂 Scoot and I have already been out and about this morning running errands and also stopped by the pharmacy to pick up a couple of prescriptions that were waiting, and some personal items in the  http://www.cvs.com  store.

We went downtown first though. Now we are back home, waiting for Scoot’s ‘surgeon’ to stop by and pick up his check for the balance for Scoot’s surgery. It was $160.00 and well worth it.

Oh. I have another fractured rib in the left top side. But life goes on, and we do what we have to do! 🙂  Pain or no pain, I’m the one who takes care of  ‘me. ‘  It happened Tuesday morning as I rolled over in bed, yelp !   I can breathe easier than just yesterday 🙂 YES ! That’s something to smile about ! 🙂

This weekend I hope to begin packing again. Yes, I’m moving across town to the area that’s safe and oh so beautiful. where I lived in the area before. I was called by the administrator just yesterday, and she asked me for several  items of proof documents. Since it’s only  seven blocks away, Scoot and I went to my bank and  I had copies made, and we drove right over there. I’m on a wait list, but  the administrator told me it could be July or August that she will call me so I can give a 30 day notice here at my present building.

I have contacted the movers and Steve called me back just this morning. We set the wheels in motion.

Now I’m going to go make some DVD’s of some of my movies so Mom  and her companion friend, LG can see them too.

Whomever reads this, I wish you a HAPPY WEEKEND !  🙂

Better to Smile Than to Frown

Where do I begin ?  I guess I’ll just start typing. There has been so much going on in my real life that’s been both good and bad. In fact more bad than good. But: the “good stuff” is what I look at and that keeps me going on.

I had not even recorded anything in http://www.singsnap.com since May 14th, so I finally did, just this evening. Tomorrow I’ll go visit   a few friends when I’m able to do that. I sang : “Waiting For The Times To Get Better.”

http://www.singsnap.com/karaoke/r/b4882abaa

It really helps me to sing.

I did get a list of to-do things all finished except for the laundry.  After  sweeping and mopping floors and vacumning the living room and bedrooms, it was all I could do to just get the 3 loads sorted out !

That’s all for now, be safe be well !

Scoot Takes Me Places !

Scoot is what I affectionately call my little scooter, which is a Shoprider Echo 3 Model # SL73. I will be driving Scoot to the Doc’s in about an hour, and ten will come right back home.

I feel so great at the moment, because the injection is all wore off, lol. Sounds weird, but it lasts in my body usually for a week past the time I get injected again, every Wednesday.

An update on my walking: I’m not able to walk for blocks at a time, however, I am able to walk around in my apartment and also outside  and also I’m able to catch a bus  and go to the store without Scoot if the store is close to the bus stop.

Yay for determination and small accomplishments. One. Day. At. A. Time. 🙂

I hope to visit some blogs today when I get home, if the injection does’nt zap me first !

That’s all for now. 🙂

This is the next custom art I will order for my bedroom.

What Really Happened Wednesday May 11th 2011

Yesterday began with the usual…getting out of bed and walking to the bathroom , for which I am very thankful to be walking around my apartment  once again. I showered and got ready to start my day.

Scoot was still charging , so I did’nt unplug him until it was time to leave  for my appointment. Around 8:45 a.m. Scoot and I left for the doctor’s building in back of  Bayfront hospital.

 My R.A. doctor’s nurse, Ginny, is kind enough to give me my injection every Wednesday until my other doctor gets back from his volunteer duties over in Africa , which will be  June 20th.

It did’nt take us long to drive over there, but had to be very alert and wary of dumb speeding drivers hurrying on their way to work. If  some of them keep on driving like they do, one of these days, they will end up in ER or worse.

I only had to wait for ten minutes and my name was called. Before five minutes were up, Scoot and I were on our way out of there. Super ! 🙂

I spent some time with my friend Bob after getting home, as he needed to have company. He’s used to working part-time, but is still on doctor’s orders to remain at home. He is doing well .

Last night I was over in http://www.singsnap.com  and had some fun singing and listening to others.

I took two naps during the day because  methotrexate will make one zap out whether one does not wish to sleep, or not !

Other than this, I just rested and relaxed. I so want to dance ! Those days are over though…because of my knees, and my lung capacity.

I might as well write a bit about today as long as I’m writing.  There’s not much going on, LOL ! 😀 I drove down to the post office and mailed a letter , and then  went over to Publix food market. The ride home was nice  and hot! It’s great to be out in the sunshine ! 😀
