Bayfield Al wrote a very interesting post yesterday on the aging process, and I experienced it this morning in a novel way. I was sitting in my rocker/recliner and for some reason looked up at the ceiling, where I saw a small bug crawling slowly across the wood paneling. I haven't yet painted this part of the living room, and still have the old brown paneling. I grabbed a tissue and stood on the rocker/recliner, which immediately started to rock, and tried to dab at the bug. I seemed to miss it and when I looked for it, I noticed another one further away from my chair/stepladder, along the same line of the paneling. After nearly losing my balance and falling out of the chair, I went to get a small step stool from the kitchen, and stopped to get some paper toweling and a bottle of spray cleaner.
I stood on the proper step stool and looked to see if the bugs were still there, and sure enough they were evenly spaced along the paneling. I finally realized they were small nails holding the paneling up, but I was sure I saw them move. I thought of Al's post, even though he hadn't mentioned hallucination as part of the aging process.
I'm going to walk with Jeannie today if she ever gets here, and maybe the fresh air will help my eyesight, balance, and overall health.
- In A Cleaning Frenzy!
Now does this sound like me? You're right, I've never been in a cleaning frenzy in my life! A woman who will switch sleeping on sides of the bed so the sheets only have to be washed half as often, doesn't get in that kind of frenzy....
- I'm Cold!ii
I've been cold all day, and while the sun is finally shining it's too late for its rays to warm me or my house. There's no doubt I could have warmed myself by getting busy and doing things around the house, but wrapping up in a fleecy...
- I Drug Myself To Walmart
There are a number of items I want to buy but haven't found them elsewhere, or if I found them they cost way more than I wanted to pay. So I made my "about 4x-a-year-trip" to Walmart. Nothing has changed there - I had several things on...
- Ho Hum Monday
I'm sure anyone out there who blogs gets spam comments. I received one today that makes me laugh out loud. I knew it was spam because of the subject - Comment on your post "Cost of Surgery". I haven't had surgery in years...
- Another Hot One
At 8:30 pm it is still 95F in Sacramento, which is really unusual as it normally cools down when daylight is on the wane. I got some items together today that I can use for camping, and will probably leave on Tuesday morning. I need to get my car serviced...
