2025- notable events in my life

It's going to be a really busy week for me.....

Without going into details, Dio's procedure went well today. He'll just need a few days to take it easy and heal up.

Tomorrow, I go to a new dentist. I want a second opinion on my problem. If I like this guy, Dio and I will both switch over to him.

Wednesday, Mom is having a repair person come to the house to find out why her landline is dead....AGAIN!!!

Thursday, I go to my old dentist to get my crown.

Friday, back to Mom's house to pay her bills, etc.

I'm tired just thinking about it all!! I don't know how much time I'll have online, but I'll check in when I can!
 

We had quite an adventure last Monday.....

First of all, our new car was ready to be picked up!! The dealer was about an hour away, and just before we left the house the weather radar said that there was a light rain that we would be driving out of.

Well, it POURED!!!!. It came down by the bucket full! I was soaked, just leaving the house. There was flash flooding and the major roads were under water in more places than I could count! We ended up getting over 3 inches of rain in less than an hour!

Good thing we left early! It was a slow drive for the first half of the trip, then we drove out of the rain. We got to the dealer on time, and the new car was ready and waiting for us. The people at this dealership were so easy to work with, and in about an hour we were on our way home in our new car! Of course, the rain started up again as we got closer to our house.

As soon as we got it parked in the barn, Dio cleaned it up.....and that's where it stayed for 4 days, when the rain finally stopped!

Even though I was reluctant to get rid of our old car, surprisingly, I really like the new one. It's so much like our old one that there is not a huge adjustment on my part. We are both very happy with it!
 
Oh no, it always rains when you are busy doing something! What kind of car did you get? I was always so sad when I got a new car because I hated to get rid of the old one. I get attached to them (or I used to, no car now).
Our old car was a 2017 Chevrolet Cruz. It was very reliable, and I thought that I'd miss it, but......

The new car is a 2025 Nissan Sentra. It is the first time that we haven't had a Chevy car in over 50 years! The Sentra looks a lot like the Cruz, but it's soooo much better! I'm loving it!

Not a normal morning for me, today. My Mom called.......
She fell out of bed and hit her head on her nightstand. She said that she couldn't stop the bleeding, and didn't know how bad it was.

By the time I got there, most of the bleeding had slowed down. I had to clean her hair and head before I could see the damage. The gash is about an inch long, but most of it was not very deep. One spot, in the middle, looked a bit worse and that was were most of the blood was coming from.

I cleaned her wound with water, and let it air dry, just giving a light dab at the blood, as needed. Next, I cleaned the blood from her PJs and blanket. I used almost a full bottle of hydrogen peroxide, there was so much blood everywhere!

She also dripped blood onto her carpeting from the bedroom, all the way down the hallway, through the living room and into the kitchen. She will clean the carpeting herself, the best she can.

By this time, her wound was drying up, so I cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide. I told her not touch so that it can make a scab.

After that, Dio and I started to move her nightstand farther away from the bed.....but she sure didn't want that!!!!! Right about then is when she decided that I had done enough, and she kicked me out! LOL

Things could have been much worse, and I'm just happy that she's OK!
