Anybody notice today was Friday the 13th. I am not a superstitious person but boy was today a doozy.
I went to see Cowboy this morning. There is a fellow named Archie who came over to him and tried to take his walker away. Cowboy just went ballistic. He yelled and jerked it away and caused quite a commotion. It took two staff folks to solve the issue and get Archie to go elsewhere and sit down for lunch.
Cowboy was really cranky and even was cranky with me which doesn't happen often. Doesn't make for a good day. We had catfish for lunch which is about his favorite meal in the world and that helped a lot.
I had plans to host my two sisters at my house in October and was so looking forward to it. We haven't been together for six years, although I have seen them separately. Originally there were six girls but we are down to three. It is time to make a connection. Found out today that my older sister has roof problems. This has been going on for a while but bottom line she has a 55 gallon barrel in her living room catching water from the unusually heavy rain they have been having and won't be able to leave for a while til she gets it all resolved. I am very disappointed but understand her situation. Hopefully we can get together later in the fall.
My eyes are doing great and I can see very well, even without reading glasses. It takes about a month before they decide exactly where you stand but right now I am feeling really optimistic.
Have a dulcimer practice tomorrow and a concert at the library on Sunday followed by a neighborhood Luau Sunday night so am going to be busy for a couple of days. Have to make the punch. It involved buying 6 cans of orange juice, 6 cans of pineapple juice, 6 cans of lime juice, a bunch of ginger ale and orange soda. Seems like should make enough for an army and I am just trying to make enough for 90 people. Hope we haven't overestimated tooooooo much.
Feeling pretty good but a bit tired. Have to finish my book for this month's book club by next Thursday. We are reading "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" by Maya Angelou. Very good book but I have a ways to go. and this month is at my house, so am going to have to tidy up before Thursday. Think I will turn in and read for a spell
I wrote this without glasses. I am going to really like the freedom of not depending on "specs" all the time, although I will still need sunglasses and sometimes reading glasses. Can't wear anything on my face for seven days and I am one of those folks that just looks washed out without a bit of makeup but we will get through it.
How did I ever find time to work for a living?
