This Night Owl Blog has given so much!
It is a fun place, we don't bash and we have fun being "tedious"!
We offer advice, give love, lots of free food and an open forum which can be about anything that is important, thought provoking or just plain silly.
And sometimes we just March (some to different drummers, but all together). :)
It is not about a single person, it is about all the people on any given day blended together.....Goldie!
Hi there! Dianne, your car is a bute! Glad you bought a GM/USA product. Sorry Louis fell again! Doesn't he use a cane? Jim refuses to use one on his walks. I think you should at least look into a retirement place. He might be surprised how nice and convenient they are now. They have come a long way from the old grungy places. Living on a single floor home would be good for the both of you. We have had a couple of days of heavy rains. I haven't had to water my garden or flowers :) The tornados have stayed further south of us, thank goodness! Matthew & I have been busy trimming limbs that hang low that make it hard to see going out of our driveway. We live at the bottom of a hill and hard to see cars coming. I think the hardest part of trimming, is dragging all the limbs away. Matthew is good at prepping the John Deer tractor/mower . It is not an easy task for a big mower. He has to take the snow plow off first then put on new blades and check all parts before mowing. I had lunch with my friends last week and a meeting/luncheon with my GM/UAW retirees. It's really the only connections I have had with anyone. I have an 80th birthday party this Sat. and one next month. Both are gals I worked with at Chrysler Trim until it shut down. I loved working there. It was only 6 miles from me! The town was devastated when it closed dawn! Well, back to laundry,cleaning kitchen (Jim wanted pancakes today), dusting, sweeping, changing bedding, feeding birds, and getting all my stretches and Tai chi and short walk in. Later a bit of gross-ery shopping. Later...
Hi. I don’t know where my post went darn it . I’m doing ok. I think I told u all,that Louis fell down at the dealer in the bathroom. Floor was wet and he slipped . Got skinned up,and hit his eye but was ok. He laid on the floor yelling help,until,someone heard him . We went to “look” at cars and came home with a gmc Terrain..red. It had 10 miles on it I love the color and cameras. I asked Barb if she drives anymore? We live in a ranch house. There is a finished basement where Louis had his bedroom but he is upstairs now. We never go downstairs as everything is up on main level. Louis just isn’t very stable We met a friend for lunch and he told her he can’t go there anymore..too hard we’ve made the decision he’s not going to Branson in Sept. I’m going with my aunt. Things r pretty much paid for now. I’m too worried about him falling there.. he will be ok here with people checking on him. I feel relieved. I’m signing off now you sleepy
Just checking in to the ghost blog. Did you two print some naughty words? lol! All good here in Mich. Hot, rainy & humid. I had my yearly physical this morning. All is good, well, almost. I have to have my hands ex-rayed and my boobs smuched. Both of my hands have been giving me trouble for a couple of months. Trigger fingers on both hands are causing me a lot of pain when they "lock" up. Dr thinks it's arthritis. I thought it was from all the extra duties I have been doing because Jim can't. prolly too much Hoe-ing around, weed wacking, sweeping, mopping, peeling taters etc.& lifting Zoie too much. I will go next week for the ex-ray and July 14 for my mammo. Read this before it disappears!
Hi all. Mary, Louis had trigger finger surgery on two fingers. My neighbor just had it too. You do too much Mary. I really think,u need to try and cut back on duties. I had asked u if you’d been to the casino, lately but you didn’t answer. Does Jim still go there?. I have secret news…That I don’t want Louis to know But I think his one daughter is going to,drive out here while I’m in Branson. It will be a surprise.. I’m hoping Louis will be glad to have someone here with him ..I hope. I’m glad it’s just one daughter because this is my favorite. It will be some nice bonding time between them. I know I’m going to have to help pay for gas which I’m not thrilled about but then she’s helping me out. Less money than hiring someone to stay with hi, ,which he insisted I would not do. . I’m excited about it plus it gives me some relief. I’m really looking forward to this trip. Not much else new around here. We had r carpets cleaned today. They were so dirty from the firemen coming in last time. He almost fell again not using the walker for a short space. He CANNOT move without his walker. I screamed bloody murder when it looked like he was going down. The couch caught him. Whew. I don’t want him to fall and I didn’t want those dirty shoes firemen on my new clean rug! My granddaughter Emilee turned 25 yesterday. Her dad is having a big restaurant birthday dinner for her with the family and then they r all staying at the hotel,where restaurant is located. $500:a night and there will be four roms that his wife will be paying for ..we were. NOt included kind of hurts my feelings but we usually aren’t in those expensive finners. The fathers dinner was $2000 for 8 of them. I feel very awkward at those meals when we used to go. Tmrw is nails day and lunch with my SIL. I went to my friends house today as she’s not having great health right now so we just wanted to catch up. I ended up staying about four hours. We still weren’t done talking! We’ve been friends for many years. Hope you’re all doing well and am anxious to hear from the others. How r unfeeling, Barb?
Dianne. I went to the Casino Wednesday. I lost my hiney lol, but I had some good "Mary time". Jim's Birthday is July 7th. I ordered a small cake. He is hard to buy for. He likes chips from the casino, or lottery tickets. The only thing he needs is another pair of Levi s. Everyone he has , has a worn out spot on the left lap area. I bought iron on patches and patched all but on that was way too bad to fix. He sits so much and crosses his leg on the left. I watched him lol! I hope Barb & Lin can post :(
