@Mizmo .. It must be a real challenge. We use our thumbs more than we realize. How long do you need to keep the bandage on?
 

Besides freezing and not sleeping all night my day isn't going well. It's 2 yrs ago today that my nephew passed away. I can't stop thinking of him and missing him. He left this world too soon. I'm waiting to hear from my husband who had to go to get a test at a hospital where he is having surgery this week. I pray the roads are safe since the storm yesterday.
It just seems like there is always something to worry about.

bandage stays til stitches come ou Feb 8th...driving me crazy...irritation worse than pain...supposed to keep arm and hand still to help grafting but that is impossible. Mad e a sling from scarf to help remind me...nearly choked myself in process copla timeslaff hand.gif
 
Today has been a gloriously sunny but cold day... I've been tired all day, not sleeping at night very well. Even tried CBD gummies, but they seem to have the opposite effect...so I think they were a waste of money, they haven't even helped with the pain in my fingers..

Vacc'd through the house today, but when I emptied the cordless vac, the dust container wouldn't go back on again.. couldn't see the reason why, so I've just put it away in the shed for now, and now going to have to use my much heavier Miele until the cordless is fixed..

Got an Amazon delivery of 3 packs of reading specs, .. got tickets for the ideal Home exhibition sent to me.. for Mid March

Just had battered cod and Sprouts for early dinner .. just turned the heating on, so once it all warms up I may go downstairs and see if there's anything to watch on TV... I watched the masked singer last night, I always just Fast forward through all the chat.. but I'm always amazed at the standard of the singing even tho' half the time I've never even heard of the people in the costumes once their identity is revealed .. :LOL:

I am very glad you got this done!! and it's good to see part of you;)

We are all hoping for a very good and full recovery for you!💌💌💌💌💌
 
@Mizmo, what? I missed the part about cancer of the thumb! Hope you have a full recovery and soon...like before you choke yourself on the scarf ;)

@hollydolly, I thought you got a job last week? You're still looking?

It was soooooo cold again this morning. I don't do cold and don't do hot and don't do rain or sNOw. I wanna live in Camelot! There's hope. Spring is only 48 days away.

So today, DD and I did our weekly Walmart run and stopped to get a Mega Millions ticket. As soon as I win, I'm gonna hire somebody to do the weekly Walmart run. Heck, I'll hire somebody to go to Walmart or wherever else every single day if it pleases me.

After we got home, I had a phone call from DS with a small financial emergency (anybody else the National Bank of Mom?) Handled that and will make a deposit to his bank account tomorrow. Then took my bony self outside to water the reseeded lawn. I see lots of little green shoots popping up.

In a couple of weeks, the spring flowers will be available at the garden centers. My absolute favorite cool-weather flowering plant is senetti and I can hardly wait to get a bunch of them to tide me over until warm weather. They are so colorful and cheerful...pink, blue, purple, some with white centers.

We went to Hoss' for lunch, stopped at Ollies.
Ended up buying box for Mac's toy & more toys for him.

Had a flat tire at Ollie's .
Thank goodness there was a tire pump that hubby could use to pump tire up.
Made it back home.

Looks like another thing to fix tomorrow.

question... ?.. when you mention names like Ollies, or Hoss...does everyone in every state know what or who you're referring to, because most if not all of us in the Uk do not..?.. I often wonder because the USA being so huge and the states albeit joined with one language.. is like 50 little countries.. and so by that, it may be that many wouldn't know names other than those like Walmart Maceys etc which are known even outside of the USA.. :unsure:
 
@hollydolly Well, duh...I was reading your question to JaniceM and guess it didn't go into my eyes right. LOL

Ollie's...I hadn't heard of it until a couple of years ago. There are a few of them in our area. They're super discounted stores and often have name-brand merchandise and prices lower than anywhere else. I was only in the one near me once and while the bargains abound, it's cram-packed to the rafters with very narrow aisles and without much rhyme or reason to where to locate things unless you just happen upon them. It's for that reason that I never went back.

When I shop, I want to go into a store, find what I'm looking for, pay for it and leave. Sometimes I want to browse, but browsing in there is nigh impossible because of the crowding of both merchandise and shoppers. I don't feel comfortable around so many people in this day and age of Covid.
 
I see Georgiagranny answered about Ollies.

How well Ollies is maintained ,orderly shelves, clean isle, depends on the manager.
I've been in clean stores & ones that looks like herd of rowdy teenagers ran through.

Hoss;s is a family style restaurant,, before the pandemic, they had large salad bar .
Now its order from menu & order salad or soup with the meal.

Wasn't an expensive restaurant before & still not badly priced.
