I Definitely Want To Move, But...

.....Having lived in the same place for twenty years, I had forgotten how much trouble it is to do that sort of thing. Right now I am just working on papers to apply for an apartment in the complex where Sister Nila lives. We have talked about doing this for years now since Son Ribcage passed away....

I Thought I Was, I Thought I Was, I Thought I Was...

.....Yes, I thought I was a good keeper of important papers that I would continue to need no matter how old I got. But today, I found out I'm not. I am so bedraggled from looking and finding everything under the sun except for the paper I need. As I have found papers I no longer need, I have stopped... Sign in to see full entry.

An Evening With Neil Diamond...

.....It is a great pick-me-up, rocking in my recliner or up and swaying on the floor to the music, his singing, the musicians, the lights, the reaction of the audience. With the concert in Dublin, Ireland in 2002 just ending on youtube I'm tempted to start it all over and do it again.....or turn on... Sign in to see full entry.

Counting Steps

The geese are loud today, and many, and active, pooping all the way, both coming in to and out of the lake and flying low overhead. A wonderfully sunny warm day with the temperature still going up, but soon to drop drastically and quickly to freezing temperatures. Phil is back to adult day care this... Sign in to see full entry.

It has been a big perplexity since Phil grew teeth...

.....Phil's teeth..... A big problem for Angelman's Syndrome people are the teeth and chewing because the teeth and jaw are not in synch with each other and good chewing is a big problem. Another problem is dentistry because they do not usually cooperate with anyone getting into their mouth. Every... Sign in to see full entry.

Worn Out...

.....I forgot how active and fun teenagers can be. They want to be busy doing something all the time, not just sitting around talking. So active, so energetic, so intelligent these days. I just spent three days with my Florida Son and his family. They left this morning and after picking up a bit and... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy President's Day ...

....No matter who you voted for, or whom you plan to vote for this year, no matter who you have liked as our President, or whom you have despised, have a blessed day....a day of love and cheer, a day of good remembrance, and a day of prayer for our country and its problems, a day of enjoyment of its...

Celebration Overtaken By Evil...

....At the winding down of the wonderful CHIEFS Super Bowl Celebration, while the CHIEFS and the Kansas City Mayer were still on stage in front of hundreds of thousands of Kansas City happy fans, bullets rang out, fear reigned, CHIEFS and Mayor were scurried off of the stage and fans not knowing...

Kansas City Knows How to Celebrate

Even though I'm too decrepit (I really tire easily these days) to even think about going to town to Celebrate with Kansas City, our CHIEFS' Victory at the Super Bowl, I definitely am watching from my living room. I just turned down the sound lest I become deaf before my time. It is hard to believe... Sign in to see full entry.

What I Intended vs What Happened

It was quite pitiful actually, but it finally ended well. Old ladies do get dry rough skin on their feet and hard to clip toenails so I was going to sit in the bathroom and soak my feet and then cover them in lotion before I took my late afternoon nap. When I did get my feet out of the tub and go... Sign in to see full entry.
