Mostly staying home


I didn't think I would post an entry today, but decided to make this a short one. I spent late afternoon and early evening yesterday at Jeannie & Donald's house, celebrating Donald's birthday with the rest of the family. Most everyone got into the pool. As hot as the weather is I had no desire to get into the water.

It was getting to be the last light of day around 9 p.m. and I realized I'd better drive home while there was still some light left. I just about made it; there is a big difference in what I don't see in the dark! One thing I'm noticing is a very slight improvement in my eyesight, day by day, although nearly imperceptible. I'll happily take improvement in tiny doses, and maybe in 5-1/2 weeks the doctor will pronounce me fit to rejoin the human race!

The heat continues and the hotter it gets, the less I want to cook or eat. I should be eating more, but just can't stand the thought of having to cook anything. I'd even think about eating out, but the two trips I have to make outdoors with the dog every day are enough to make me run for the cover of my much cooler apartment. I'm still not having to use the A/C, and with temps of 101 the last couple of days, that is pretty good. It probably gets up to around 80 inside, so the 20 degree difference really makes a difference. I have to find a cooler place to live next summer.




- A Short Update
When I think I'm going to write just a short piece, it ends up getting quite wordy!  I can't help  it. Update on chiropractic care - I am noticing, and the doctor says that my posture is improving quickly.  Jeannie had to have a...

- Saturday Is Flying By At Warp Speed!
I really wish the days didn't speed by so fast, although I'm sure it has something to do with age. Yesterday evening I went back to Jeannie & Donald's house after our gym workout.  Donald had made pizza dough beforehand and left it...

Late yesterday afternoon Jeannie called and asked if I wanted to have dinner at their house - Donald was making enchiladas, rice, refried beans, guacamole, etc., all from scratch.  I hadn't felt well most of the day but I wasn't about to...

- Still Awaiting Test Results
I haven't any word yet on the test for Valley Fever, and I can't imagine why any test these days can't be run faster than this one. I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow, and maybe by then we will know about the blood test results....

- Natural Air Conditioning
My outdoor thermometer was showing 80F in the shade this afternoon, and it was much hotter out of the shade, at least 90. The indoor thermometer in my bedroom registered 68F. I sure hope this holds up as I definitely don't want to run and pay for...
