Wayne is stopping in to pull my garbage bin down to the alley for me. I haven't set it out for four weeks so it's heavy and full. I wasn't sure how I would manage as it's difficult for me to pull even when the yard has no snow. I have an early Monday morning doctor appt but when I called to ask them if I should reschedule, the woman said they'd understand if I can't drive but we'll just play it by ear. Took me a month to get that appt so I hope I'm not put out another four weeks. But....if I am, I am. I had to reschedule my ophthalmologist appt a few days ago because that appt was also early morning and they planned on dilating my eyes. I knew driving on ice was not going to happen, especially if I could only see things in a blur. That appt was postponed for -- yep! A month away. We obviously need more medical people in this community. But then I suppose patients everywhere have to wait, no matter where they live.
The cold temps have sure done a number on my body this winter. Seems like I hurt all over and in several new spots. The latest being my right thumb and wrist. I meant to buy a wrist brace when I picked up my pills and I forgot. I suppose I could go out again but I'm not in the mood. Traffic was kind of heavy in spots.
I got a new jigsaw for Christmas and I brought the box in from the garage this morning as I intend to mess with it while the white stuff keeps me homebound. I've also got my sewing room back now that the carpet is laid and the flooring in the house is done. I've got a new twin mattress on order for the bed in there but it won't be in until this weekend so I probably can't get it home until the end of next week. Depends on how brave Wayne feels about driving. Since he drives for a living, he's used to it but I don't want to take advantage. But I will. I can certainly entertain myself inside easy enough but I DO NOT WANT my power to be interrupted. I can tolerate the dark but not the COLD!
I decided to turn on the news first thing this morning to GMA and Today to see what their weathermen were discussing. Right off the bat, I have to listen to a woman being found stuffed in a suitcase. The second story up was a politician messing with some woman. Good Lord! Nothing changes on those supposedly morning news shows. They might as well put Maury Povich on! I turned it off. Same thing I do anytime Trump shows up. Don't need to listen to that garbage.
Here's various pictures I kept to post on my blog whenever I got around to writing a few lines. Most I've already posted on Facebook but then not everybody is a fan of FB.
This is so true!
After Wayne left, I made up the bed. It sure feels softer than the double one I tested out at the store but I'll make it work one way or the other. I plan on sleeping on it tonight to see if I do any better than on my 'bed in a box' mattress. If I don't, I'll deal with it. At least I have a nice guest rooms for overnight folks now -- and right next to the bathroom.
I decided to sit down and put new shoe strings in this beat up pair of sneakers that I'm not quite ready to toss yet. They never stayed tied and I don't know why it took me so long to change the strings. If there's anything I hate, it's having to bend over in the street or a store to tie my shoes. I'm sure I look like a cartoon.
Mary brought me a box of old 45s that I had stored at her house or gave her? At any rate, Wayne collects them so I'm gifting them to him. I typed up the titles so he could research them easier to see if any are worth money. He thought two Elvis ones that have four songs on it might be worth something along with Yesterday by the Beatles and Hats off to Larry by Del Shannon. If I can get it to cut and paste on my blog, I'll post it below. Meanwhile, have a nice February and stay warm.
