Travel
Life has been fairly quiet since I've been back, but I thought I'd just pop in and say "Hi".
I finally got back to my chiropractic treatment today, and already I feel so much better. He told me that I actually had done pretty well over the last month, and he will do a re-exam next week to determine the next stage of treatment.
I'm keeping up with the lo carb, lo sugar, hi fat diet, although sometimes I really crave dessert or at least something sweet. I need to get some dark chocolate for when I get those cravings - dark chocolate tastes good and it can actually be very healthy.
I miss my NY family and the grandsons, but am happy to see the CA family and grandchildren. It's a shame that my kids are separated by a continent. I haven't returned to "normal" yet, as I'm still tired from the long day of travel plus the 3 hours time change. So far I like going to bed earlier and getting up earlier in the morning. I sure do miss the cooler temps in NY though, and wish CA would finally cool down.
My TV and internet are working fine. The tech who came out to fix the problem and then came inside to push the correct buttons on the box was so nice. I explained that I couldn't really see the labels on the boxes, and it turned out I was trying to find the power button on the wrong box! I'm happy to have the internet, but I think TV programming has gotten worse in the month since I last watched it. All I can say is, "What a waste of time!" TV watching, that is.
- Weather Woes!
Poor Ara, went to the airport last night and was told the flight had been delayed until this morning. Today's flight left, but there was a delay of several hours in Houston; I haven't heard if it finally departed, but I hope she is home...
- Jet Lag?
I know it is more difficult to adjust to the time change when going west than it is the other way around. I thought, however, that driving made a difference, and it does, but I seem to be dealing with a bit of jet lag now. Since the last two...
- Not Much Today
I drove from Monett, MO to Western OK (in the Panhandle) for a much greater distance and time than I like to spend on the wheel. Eight hours, and I haven't figured the mileage yet. Northern OK is ok but mostly it's been boring. US...
- Sugar High
Today I bought my last Entenmann's Butter French Crumb Coffee-cake, or at least I hope so. I rarely get them but when I'm in NY my oldest grandson and I have coffee-cake together in the morning. I tell him he has to eat something healthy...
- Something Going Around
My daughter told me that yesterday her mother-in-law, who has been congested and coughing a lot, drove herself to the hospital where I was treated for pneumonia. She went to the emergency room and they determined that she also had pneumonia. After X-rays,...
