Pulled most of the weeds and uncovered the wild violets that
are beginning to grow. I like them and they cover the ground beautifully. Later
I walked for the ant traps and decided to walk home the long way. Part way I
had an episode of losing control of my walking. It was a brain condition thing
where if I didn’t run I would fall down. Made it home by holding on to poles.
Hollie saw that I was in trouble and recued me.
Important day for our family: covid vax all around. Hollie
is caregiver, Chuck is disabled vet, and I am old. We will go to the airport
for the event. I’m glad we will have the
protection. After the frost melts,
I’m going to walk again. It feels so good to get out on my own even just around
the block. Walking is such a big part of my life and it has been hard to stay in so much. Might get weeding
started in the roses.
The news from yesterday is I walked around the block! First
walk in weeks of back pain and weather. It’s clear and frosty again so I’ll wait
for 50 before I venture out. Today I’m going to Home Depot and get ant traps
then to the bank. Megan needs the date of the first covid check for my taxes.
Nice to have an in-house accountant. I don’t need an appointment. I watched two
episode of the second season of Heartland.
I like the family dynamics.
Frosty morning with sun promised later. I feel the need to
go outside today. Maybe walk to the bank and cash in the government debit card.
I will borrow Hollie’s vacuum cleaner and get the webs off the sunporch
windows. Thanks to Rosalie, I started a story that needs details. It was fun to
work out an idea and write. My handwriting is shaky and typing is full of mistakes
from the tremor and I want to write anyway. First ham and avocado on pitta.
Loud hail storm in the night rattled the skylight big time.
Cold rain this morning. I suppose I’ll turn to Netflix again and find something
new to enjoy. Rosalie asked me to read a prompt and decide if it stimulates my
mind. I know it needs a shake up as the moss is beginning to grow. I will do
that as soon as I finish this post. We brought home lots of supplies so good nutrition
is available but so are chips, peanuts, gingersnaps and chocolate.
January brought an hour of daylight and two pounds of belly fat.
Time to get back on the wagon with no bacon and potato breakfasts. It’s so easy
to snack in the gloomy weather. Yesterday I watched Dig. It was historically
interesting and Junebug that was weird and a waste of time. I like entertaining
shows. It is one year since I gave up the car. It’s been okay thanks to Hollie’s
generosity. I was no longer a comfortable driver. Inside day with no agenda.
