It seems that a good day is usually followed by a not-so-good day, and yesterday was one of those bad days. I had an early appointment to get my hair cut and didn't have the time or appetite to eat much breakfast. Donald dropped me off and picked me up since Jeannie was using my car while waiting for a part for hers. On the way home I began to feel really nauseated, and napped most of the afternoon. I never felt like eating but managed to get a little food. The pain almost had me reaching for something to relieve it, but I made it through the day without meds.
This morning I'm feeling much better and started the day with my favorite part of breakfast.
That's bananas, strawberries, blueberries, and cherries cut up and sugared, all organic. Then I relax with my coffee before having a big bowl of cereal. All is well this morning.
Jeannie's car was ready late yesterday afternoon, and we went to pick it up. I drove my car back home, the first time I've driven in a long while. It was like I'd been driving all along even though it's been several weeks.
Today will be another day in the 90's, but tomorrow that will drop 10 degrees and then continue downward into the 70's. I don't want to be out in the heat of the day, for sure.
I finally started using the Record option on my uVerse service, and like it very much. What I don't care for is the Guide - I wish they allowed it to take up more of the screen so it would be easier to read and use, as well as show more of the programming at once. But technology isn't designed for people like me, which is pretty much ok, because I will never be addicted to technological devices to begin with.
A few weeks ago I hung a new hummingbird feeder from the porch roof where I can see it from my recliner. It took about a week for the birds to start using it and now there is a steady stream of the beautiful little birds. I'd like to hang a regular bird feeder but my past luck with squirrels has been so bad I'm not sure if I want to deal with them again. At least I wouldn't be bothered by bears!
I hope everyone has a good weekend.
- A Case Of The Jitters!
I'm not concentrating very well this morning. I went into the bedroom and dropped something on the floor - when I picked it up I noticed quite a bit of dust, so into the kitchen I went to get my dust mop. While I was there I decided to...
- Waiting Out The Heat
It's still unbearably hot, but after the triple digits all this week we will get back into the 90's. I never thought I'd be relieved to be in 90 degree weather. Have I said how much I hate hot weather? I dropped...
- They're Back!
I set out a new hummingbird feeder a week ago and was wondering if the birds would ever come back. Two days ago a big one appeared and stayed for long enough that I could get a good look at him. I was thrilled and to celebrate I fixed myself...

I just went outside to get my mail and walked into a beautiful sunny afternoon! Though we desperately need rain, I am happy to see the sun, especially right now. This morning was very chilly, and I hurried to the kitchen to start my coffee maker. ...
- Get A Move On!
That's what I keep telling myself. I plan to leave in about 10-12 days from now, and will just get there the easiest way possible, hopefully not over I-80. I had vowed I would never again drive through Bakersfield or Barstow, but I may...
