On a positive note, my blood pressure has come down into what I think is the normal range, for the first time ever (other than a brief moment here and there). For which I am very grateful! This is great news

Good Afternoon Kids! It is sunny, but blustery out. I could literally attach a sail to my car, & probably get pulled into a neighboring state, the wind is blowing SO hard.

My son in law is down at the office of my apartment, trying to get the repairs I need taken care of. Hooray for sons in law Right? I don't know what was said, or the results yet. But he said he'll be my pit bull any time. LOL And he said, he thinks I will be happy with the results of the conversation he had with the manager. He will contact me tomorrow and tell me about it. Also, I talked to the office again about my missing package. It's DGD1's birthday on Saturday. I need her gift! I was told it isn't there. To contact the seller for a refund. Instead, I contacted PayPal and filed a claim. (I contacted the seller yesterday) If I haven't heard from the seller about my claim by the 10th, I can request a refund on the 11th. DD2 ordered the same gift on Amazon, for me. It should arrive tomorrow. I sent a venmo to pay for the item, to her husband. It's a Mini Chef Set. I think she's going to like it. Now I need to think of a gift for her sister, next month.

I hope you get repairs done today. Me too! I haven't heard anything yet. But hope to hear something soon. The office doesn't open until 9AM. I guess I should get up and shower.

It's cold here, this morning! They said on the news, it felt like 31° at 7:30.
But it seems to be clear. And I'm getting great TV reception! Better than normal.

Good Afternoon Kids! It feels like it should be a Friday, but it'll be here soon enough. I met a church friend for lunch. That was fun, because with everything going on this year, I haven't had much of a social life, outside of doing "wedding stuff".
We got steady rain this morning. That has stopped, but it's still cloudy & gloomy.

It's rained off and on all day. Not storms to wash away grass seed, though!

6AM and it's raining heavily again. I haven't heard any thunder, or seen any lightning though, so that's good.
People are filling sand bags, to protect their homes and neighborhoods.
I needed to go to the store yesterday, but didn't. Now I regret that decision. I'll have to go this evening, after I leave DD2's.
Maybe I'll get pizza for dinner? It will last me through the weekend. Esp if I freeze some leftover slices (2 per pack).
Or maybe I'll get pizza for us, for lunch?
I might melt in the rain though. 😳
Enjoy your day!

Good Morning Kids! The stay started off well, with the sun up & shining. As soon as DS's ride picked him up for work, I went to Target early to beat the crowds.
Late morning I got a call that DS had a seizure. It's the 2nd one he's had at work. But, it was a quick one, and he wanted to go back to his normal activities once he came to. I told them to call me if he needs to come home early, as sometimes seizures really wear a person out, and you literally need a good nap to feel normal.

Thank you for the good wishes. He is home from work now, & looks pretty good, considering. But, I'm making him take a nap before dinner, because seizure ARE draining on the body.

One more good thing -- my rehabilitating knee passed the pivot test this week, so I can start running very slowly.

I fell outside today, at DD2's. My left knee is killing me and has been all day. Although it's getting worse. As is the rest of my body.
I've taken 4 Tylenol, but they haven't helped.
My check battery light came on in my car and doesn't go off.
Tomorrow is DGD1's 6th birthday. But I don't want to go to dinner with that many people, even I my car is running.
I can't afford a car repair. I've been on the verge of tears, all day.
I want to go to sleep and forget everything. I'm tired of adulting.
Sorry for whining.

Pssst! NancysSummerSip! It's Cinco de Mayo this weekend, in case you want to extend your celebration. Congratulations! toomuchreality, some days it's best just to go back to bed. Tomorrow should be better. Put some ice on that knee, and if it isn't getting better by tomorrow, have a doctor check it out. And, since you have a sore knee, that's the best excuse in the world for skipping that birthday party.

I had to drive at least 15 minutes or more to charge mine up. Rest your knee. I hope rest lessens the pain for you. Go to sleep and deal with things in the morning.
