Getting What I Always Wanted!
For years now I've been interested in getting a Jitterbug cell phone, and this morning I called and placed my order. I used my Tracfone to place the call as I still had almost 300 minutes to use in only 5 days. Would you believe that with placing the order, asking all the questions I wanted to ask, and getting all the details of the phone, I only used 10 minutes! I really dislike the whole idea of a cell phone and would cheerfully toss it in the trash and never again be bothered, but my kids feel better about my traveling with a cell phone. For myself, I truly don't care.The painting is finished, at least in the living room. Jeannie came over on Saturday and put the final coat on ceiling and walls. I did a little bit of the trim, but mostly just watched her work. It was exhausting! Of all times to have to undergo that stupid time change it would be Saturday night. I will try to finish the kitchen painting soon, which only amounts to four bottom cabinet doors and 12 drawers. The worst part will be the cleaning before I even start to paint. I'm so happy with the way the living room looks and I'm really anxious to get the kitchen finished. Not sure if I will do the bathroom, but it's an ugly pink color, is a very small space, and it would be nice to brighten it up a bit.I haven't been feeling well lately and think I will try to eliminate, or at least reduce, the amount of dairy products I'm consuming. In trying to gain weight I cover all vegetables with a liberal dose of cheddar, plus sour cream; eat a bowl of cereal each morning with whole milk, and then have a big bowl of ice cream every night. I will use up the products I have left, and then just use half & half in my coffee. If I don't feel any better I'll go back to the rest of the dairy products, but it's worth a try.The flowering trees are in bloom and already I can feel and see the pollen everywhere. I had a bad enough headache a couple of nights ago that I got out of my warm bed to go take an aspirin. Since I rarely get a headache it was enough to make me wonder if the headache might be a sign of something else. Evidently it was a combination of pollen and paint fumes, and not anything worse.For some reason I haven't even been turning on my computer lately. Once in a while I check email, but I think I'm close to OD'ing on computer and television. Don't know what's going on but thought I would check in from time to time until I figure it out.

The Primer Is On
Between Jeannie and me, mostly Jeannie, we got the primer on ceiling and walls. We even did the wall that needs to be replaced, because I won't have the money to do the job right for another year and will just go with what is there. Strategically...

Cell Phone Dilemma
I've often complained about my cell phone, and now I'm about to drop it altogether. I have about 180 minutes left and 4 days of usage. It will cost a minimum of $20 to top it off, which would add about 60 minutes and a couple more...
