October 2019... Share your Day...

This morning I'll be going grocery shopping with another resident in my building,she has a car.
She always told me 'anytime you need to go,let me know'.
My close friend,Marcia is back home,she called me 45 min ago asking if I could take 'buddy boy' on his afternoon walk.She'll be gone for most of the afternoon,it will be the highlight of my day
 

Been getting up earlier the past few days. I have set my cell phone to wake me. My dog always tries to get me up, too..lol

Today I am supposed to get a CT Scan of my lungs. I have 2 small nodules on them that the dr. has been watching for almost 3 years now. He wants to see if they've grown and could potentially be cancerous. The prior 2 scans have shown they've not grown so that's good. I'm hoping for the same results again. I've quit smoking since January.
 
Yesterday, we had blowing snow, 18 for a chill index for the whole day. We got about 3 inches. So, today it is in the mid 40's and snow is still around and slushy on the streets. Lots of sunshine. Pleasant day overall. Stayed home from the senior center where I would be playing cards and having fun with friends. But, all decided to stay home and avoid possible falls.
 

Good Morning Fellow SF'ers...
It's Saturday, not really sure where that week went, feels like forever ago we voted for a new government... But after that time flew by... Saw the diabetic doctor yesterday... Put me on a new drug... a pic once a week called Ozempic, so it has the same medication I am all ready on, but it's suppose to help with my belly size, so we'll see if it works... But what is strange in won't be taking daily meds anymore for diabetes, because the needle is once a week...

Well, that's about all the news I have, it looks like it's going to be a sunny day today, so that's nice... suppose to pour tomorrow... Well, Kids, I hope YOU all have a wonderful day, and God Bless...

I hope the Ozempic works Mike. I see it advertised on tv all the time here. Hope it's as good as they say it is. I hope you have a great weekend buddy!
 
Well, I waited for my insurance co. transportation yesterday and it never showed up! I called and told them that and the people said they were there and they knocked on my door and called me on the phone. They did neither one as I was sitting right here. No one can knock on my door either as there as buzzers here at the apt. place they have to use. Maybe they had the wrong address I don't know but I missed my ct scan. I made an apptment for another one in Nov.

Anyhow I slept well and am feeling good today. I think the St. John's Wort is working for me. That's good. For a 2 mo. supply it only cost 3.34! That's a real deal there.

Supposed to rain today. Oh well, I guess we need it? I don't know. Grass looks green to me.

A good day to all!
 
Mike,I hope your new medicine helps you
This morning,I strolled over to see my friends,Marcia and Dave for our weekly chat.Dave and Aker aka buddy boy' weren't there.Dave had taken him to the vet for a checkup. When they returned 20 min later,'bb' heard my voice,came racing into the living room still had his leash on,wagging his tail,happy to see me
It was nice to see Marcia&Dave and find out what's happening with them
My mid morning walk went to local independent book store,bought 2 books
 
Good Morning,
I haven't been to bed yet, but going to try again very shortly... Well, yesterday we drove over to Lorie's cousin's house, to see how the rebuild was coming after the tornado just over a year ago... She should be in her new house in February. Even though it's cleaned up pretty good around there, still got an eerie feeling in my stomach... Helped her around there for a few hours... came home, started a fire in the back yard, and sat around it for a few hours... and that's about Saturday... Today it's supposed to rain and be cool most of today, suppose to start raining in 15 minutes they claim on my phone... time will tell...

I hope YOU all have fun or a relaxing Sunday... God Bless YOU all...
Mike

I love this service because its in our chapel a more initmate place..We usually have 20-25 mostly 'regulars 'who come I like we have communion every wk,good sermon,we get out in 45 min.
The rest of my day reading the paper,if the rain stops may go for a walk
 
Good Morning, or maybe Good Night... Haven't been to bed yet... Having trouble sleeping again... Going to try again in a few moments... Didn't do anything yesterday... Watched the hockey game last night... It was nice to see my Sens win their third game... Anyways Kids... I hope YOU all have a wonderful day... and God Bless YOU all...

Mike,I hope you can get some sleep today
YIPPEE!! today is the last day of our elevator being down.My knees are certainly happy with this news.I usually would walk up/down stairs twice/day not 4.I've noticed during the shutdown,I would start to doze in my chair or recliner around 8:30pm
My usual Mon volunteer morning at Canopy of Neighbors calling members
 
yesterday was the first dry sunny and warm day in 9 days... I can't remember ever having rain for so long! It meant that we had to spend the day fixing up the garden after not only the rain but the high winds...! It was lovely to be out in the sun again..but last night temps had dropped to 3 deg!!

I slept so soundly after the first day of real exercise for over a week, that I missed the postman with a delivery this morning...

Another sunny morning but quite cold at 52 deg!!

At the other end of the country we've had the first rain in ages. Obviously nothing like rain that disrupted travel down south, but random heavy showers. We did our fortnightly grocery shop this morning, so that's us stocked up for a while. Fortunately we dodged the rain and it's been dry most of the afternoon.
 
An update from my morning post
On my afternoon stroll,went over to Marcia&Dave's she was home,'buddy boy' was happy to see me.He took me on a 2 block walk,has been a beautiful day here in Buffalo,temps in low 60's.Marcia&I had a nice chat
The elevator is now working YIPPEE,I took it from the basement where I was getting my mail&my neighbors to our floor {3}The techs did a terrific job,a vast improvement.My knees are happy
 
Good Morning Kids... Well just getting up, had a pretty good sleep, once I fell asleep... Update on the new med they put me on... No sugar highs or Lows... Not as hungry as I have been during the days... We went on a very long walk with Carl yesterday... and no sugar lows high or low... So I think the first dose is working, Just find it very strange not taking a pill in the mornings...

Suppose to start getting cold here Thursday, like winter colds, Brrrrrrrr, and yuck... Have to get the stakes in the ground for the plow...Maybe after breakfast... Yes, it's breakfast day today...

Well, not a lot else to report... So I hope YOU all have a GREAT day... and God Bless YOU all...

Good news about the elevator , Sue... (y)
 
Good Morning, and Happy Hump day Everyone...
I had breakfast with the boys yesterday, and could not eat my entire breakfast... Since this new drug, I find my eating patterns have changed, and that was only one poke... Not a lot new other than that... So I hope YOU all have a GREAT day... And God Bless YOU all...

Another lovely autumn day. We went to see another 'Castle' - Castle Fraser this time.
Not surprising it was the home of the Fraser family until that line of the family died out and the property was lest to the nation. It dates from the mid 1400's when it was a small tower house and this was extended over many generations into the present castle.

Had a very interesting tour and a nice meal in the café.

Good Morning Kids, or Good Night, Nope, another sleepless night, actually going to try sleep in a few... Well taking Carl into the vets now at lunch... Getting worried about the itch he got from running through some Stinging Nettle... We've got him on three Benedryl a day, but not sure if that's doing it...

Got the Grand Son today... I miss the little fellow soo much... Other than that kids, not a lot new... I'll get November set up after this... I can't believe it's the end of October already...

Well Kids, Hope YOU all have a GREAT day... Hope YOU see lots of Trick n Treaters tonight... God Bless YOU all...
