Uncomfortable

I sat for awhile today reflecting on life. What came to my mind were the people, places and things which make me feel uncomfortable.
One of the things that popped right to the forefront was needles. As a child I hated getting shots. I remember when we received shots at school or even the doctor’s office, [...]

I’ve Lost a Day

Somewhere along this week I’ve lost a day. It really took hold yesterday. I went to take my medications and I always take the ones right next to the empty cubicles. It’s a medication separator by day and time of day.
When I realized I was taking Friday’s meds I had to stop, I thought the [...]

I’m a Dummy

I am a stickler about my money. I keep my checkbook register up to date and balanced right down to the penny. If it is only pennies I may make an adjustment and call it good.
Yesterday though, I don’t know where my mind was and stress doesn’t help either.
Michael and I were combing monies so [...]

Guess Whose Birthday It Is?

Seven years after I was born, my sister appeared in the world on this date.

Call’s to Make

Today I need to make a call to an organization called HICAP – Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy Program. They are up on the area’s aging and the services available to them.

Stoopid Movie Night

Saturday is our “stooped” movie day and night. Our satellite station has the SciFi channel. I don’t know if the Midwest or the East Coast gets this channel but as the name implies it is all science fiction.
The station it appears has theme nights. One night it was snakes. Another night it was birds that [...]

Another Foggy Day

Every morning this week, I have awoken to foggy skies. It doesn’t make me want to get out of bed. Although I have this furry little cat nipping at my elbow; he truly is my alarm clock.
I did find out why he wanted me up. The food bowls were empty and Bailey was hungry. He [...]

Another Irritating TV Ad

I was watching television this morning and I’ve found another irritating commercials. It is the ad for Colgate toothbrush. It’s called the 360° toothbrush. This toothbrush will clean all of your mouth’s surfaces in addition to brushing your teeth.
The part that really, really bugs me is the tongue cleaner. Okay, so I spend an additional [...]

Chaos in the Fur Kids Household

Yesterday was a stressful day for all of us, at least me, one cat and a half of a cat.
It began with Bailey, the year old, began picking on his big brother, Max. Enough so that Max was meowing about it. Michael broke up the tussle. Bailey can be such a bully at times. Not [...]
