OK, I know it is 7 or 8 weeks since my last post, Somehow I thought new posts would magically appear on the published posts even if I didn't put them out there. ( I still have my teddy bear from 7 years old.)
Meanwhile I am trying to get a topic going that I can fill up without going silly. Could it be refills on my scripts? There are a lot of them, the problem is that they just lay there, no action. I have been trying to get going on lots of topics, but none of the read well. I can't see how writers sit down, dip into the ink well and write a best seller. I have been trying to get the manuscript for my novel to be correct, but I just keep re-writing what I should leave alone. At the rate I am going to finish in time for my 80th birthday.
So OK I will drag what is left into the light, no read-right what is (above) finished, fixing typos as I see them.
C has gone to take a nap, and I could do the same, but I would wake up feeling worse than when I went to sleep. Its is nearly eleven and I just had brunch.
When I was well and hearty I went to see a doctor who was gradually losing losing her battle with cancer, but still cheerful, at least. I called her at her house for a quick yes/no that Dr. Number two recommended and she sounded like her usual self and the answer was "no". She remembered who I was and what meds I was taking. It was a real blow when she passed. I have seen more than 5 doctors since then and everyone has left for one reason or the other. The main one has been they missed too many of the kids' soccer etc. games, and the older ones missed too many grandkid's games. One of them said "I thought I could change the system but instead it changed me". I seem to invite all sorts of "secrets" and have no idea why. Once I repeated the words to another doctor that #2 was leaving and he had no idea. Whoops, open mouth insert foot...
Today being Sunday there are no nurse visits. Yesterday there were 4 visits from nurses, therapists, etc. and one would hardly leave and another would arrive. No doubt Monday will make up for today.
I am tired already.
We called the power company when the wind knocked a line down, and the guy (singular ) wrapped the line up in his hand and disconnected the power, I guess. He didn't seem too bothered. Makes mowing more straight forward. One would hope.
OK, that is it from here, hoping all there is OK. I will try to do better.
Bye for now!
Addendum: We were having not a simple cold, but Covid. C got it first, from R?, and it has knocked him down, good thing he is retired. I got it from him and I thought I would miss but no, just a a brief pause from the entire run of the illness. I have been trying to use OTC to ease the system, but no help. *cough*cough*. we all tested positive on the in-home tests and then R works in Family Medicine and I would expect she would have it already, but is cleaner yet.
I am still working on cleaning and sorting stuff, but it is hard to go into the closet when there is so much that needs to be sorted. I should offer an incentive to those per armhole? that needs to go, but there would be a massive dump. When N died, they went in the closet and outside of a sweater or jacket they just dumped them to Goodwill. Some of them were mine.
Anyway the deed is done, 5+ years ago, and if I ever get to go shopping, I will buy all new. With a new budget. And the closet will look radically different.
