Muggy day

It is one of those ugh muggy days. I am still trying to break in my Cyprus Crocs and I still have a spot on my foot, left foot-the bunion that is painful. So I should probably give up but I really like the way they look so I am sticking with it for now. I am going to get another pair soon. Gwen would yell at me for doing this while walking but I really don’t want to stop at the park today. I think it is going to rain soon and I am hungry. M and I might go see Chicago.

That is a really disjointed post. It’s what happens when I type e-mails on my phone while walking. I inspected my foot and there is a blister on my bunion. I will have to put a band-aid on it and tape over the band-aid. When the blister heals the shoes will be fine. I am still buying another pair, red and a different style, the one on the left, except where the picture is magenta, mine will be silver and where the picture is white mine will be red, Gwen is getting a silver pair, pictured on the right and she is getting this color. When we were in Washington, she saw this style and liked it, but the store only had a pink color she didn’t like. I am planning on walking to the Crocs store on Wednesday and buying them. If they don’t have both shoes in the colors I want, I will order them from the website. I got these pictures from the website. I have been having trouble with the site so I have to save what I have typed just in case.

OK so I couldn’t publish my post I will have to save it in a word document.

When I said M and I might go to see Chicago, I meant the band, not the show. Anyway, it is going to be all of use. You have to buy a block of 4 tickets to get the special price, so D ordered 2 blocks, so everyone can go with one extra. It is this Sunday, June 29, 2008. Yes of course I will post. Probably not pictures, they probably don’t allow you to take pictures. Maybe if I buy pictures I will scan them and post them.

Slept late


very late today. They were even looking for me on the WW thread! M went to the store and bought a torch for outside. With the swing, she wanted something to keep the bugs away. Since mosquitoes are the worst, she got a citronella torch. The oil has lemongrass essence in it so it smells nice. I took two pictures. One with my cell phone (on the left) during the day, the other with my camera (on the right) at night when it had been lit. M and Tigger said it looks like the Olympic Torch.

When we went to Target, me for hangers and oatmeal, M for boxes for Gwen and Tigger wanted to check out the Wii, I saw B for the first time. Not at all what I expected. Well, I have to go to bed now. I will be back tomorrow.

Pix messages in the blog

And here I am at the park that has become my favorite lunch place. But only when the weather is nice. When the weather is cold or nasty, then I like the Brazil, is smells like coffee and has though cool tables. This is Butterscotch or Buddy as the kids call him on ‘his’ new table. I am going to read some before I go back. I am tired.

I have discovered that I can send a picture, put text in it and the text and picture come through, how cool is that? I bought M some Crocs when I was on my way home from work. When I got home from the gym, she was sitting on the new swing we got for the backyard and wearing them. She loves them, thinks they are so comfortable, and says she needs another pair.

I requested The First Cut by Peter Robinson and picked it up at the library tonight and read it. The ending occurs in the last Alan Banks book I read, years later the protagonist shows up as a medical examiner killing serial murderers, then when Annie figures it out, she kills herself. Not Annie, the character in the book.

It is late now and so I am going to bed. See you tomorrow.

>Back at work today

>and I made the train after struggling to get up. I did my shoulder exercises and was going to put on my makeup but the Aussie conditioner had made a mess in the make-up case I put it in to pack it in my suitcase. That is why you should always unpack your suitcase right away.

Uneven hems seem to be back in style, I saw two women wearing them. They weren’t extreme, just kind of curved around, like a big ‘O’. One of the women had a purse bigger than her tote bag. Another woman is obviously a fashionista with her multi-colored gauze skirt over her tan capris with yellow Keds.

Tigger sent me a text message asking to download the “National Treasure” soundtrack. As opposed to the “National Treasure 2” soundtrack. He said it is not as good as #2. He used up all the Pepsi points to get it.

You can buy BioFreeze from Amazon.com but according to the BioFreeze website, you shouldn’t. You should only buy it from a medical professional. I sent the website to M. Of course she was like, you haven’t been at work for 2 weeks and you have time to search for BioFreeze? Well I used the computer search engine, takes hardly any time at all.

Then when the train was almost at Garrison, I started hearing pings against the window, sounded like hail. I don’t like hail, it hurts. Anyway, it stayed in Garrison.

>^. .^<

>Just sitting

>here on my bed doing nothing but listening to the kids outside. My shoulder really hurts. I wish it would stop. I am guessing it won’t until I go to the doctor, but I feel like if I do that I will get into the PT, then they stop, so I have surgery and more PT. I think I will wait until it just stops moving, then go see Doctor DiMarco. How does that sound to you?

D is out buying a new T.V. They are redecorating the living room slowly, lots of red accents. I should go upstairs to help but I really don’t feel like it right now. I am feeling rather blah right now so I am just going to lie here for a little bit longer.

M.L. sent me an e-mail asking me where I was since I didn’t post yesterday, I don’t think I turned my computer on at all yesterday. I only sent a quick e-mail to start a post here while I was watching some really weird T.V. shows. Some things I shouldn’t have been watching but sometimes I just can’t help myself. I really should go now, I need to type what happened on the way home.

>Just stuff

>Power purify and some weird Japanese foot sticky patches to purify your body and lose weight, i saw those two commercials on the T.V. tonight. So weird.

When you watch late night T.V. you see the really weird commercials, like the ones I mentioned above. And ones for phone sex chat lines. Those really freak me out, if those girls are really that beautiful, why are they on the phone? Why aren’t they somewhere you can see them in person? Anyway I don’t remember the name of the Japanese foot things but the power purify do the same thing. You stick them on your feet and in the morning they come off dirty. Freaky HUH? Well, I really can’t think of anything else to say, I think my brain is taking a break from thinking right now.

>Last vacation day.

>Today is the last day off I have, the weekends are always days off. My shoulder is really bothering me now. I will probably have to go the doctor again. I am trying to avoid it by doing the exercises from PT, but I don’t remember them all and it is getting really difficult to lift my hands over my head and take clothes off over my head etc. I am going to try doing my exercises 3 times a day and see if that helps.

Anyway, I have to go help Gwen, then we are going to have a driving lesson and then go to Ron’s, see you later.

>SO HAPPY I’M HOME

>Slept in my own bed and woke up feeling good, except for these monster blisters on my feet. I need to get back to posting so I can keep up to date with my life. I am on battery power but I should have enough to finish this. Tomorrow I will update yesterdays NIGHTMARE travel adventure.

Had a doctor’s appointment this AM. Dr. Sharma said my lung function is good. Gwen went with me and we went to Target, I had to get food for poor Butterscotch who when I got home had no food or water in his bowls and very little food in the cat food container. Then M called because they were not able to leave the building to get food so Gwen and I went to pick up their lunch. After that we stopped at Ron’s. Then came home and just vegged, oh we took pictures of the roses. I would post one but I don’t want to get up to get my camera.

Tonight I went with M to the high school to help her with the snacks after the Senior Awards. When I got home Fred wanted his present, that Gwen told him I got, but wouldn’t tell him what it was. I got him a representation of Mt. St. Helen made from the ash of Mt. St. Helen. I really have to get ready for bed now.

I had planned on getting up at 6 to do some cleaning and go to Allsport before my shot appointment but I overslept. Then I thought I would be able to get the oil changed before my appointment but then Stitch & Gwen HAD to use my car to take clothes to Fred so I didn’t have time, I haven’t even had breakfast yet and it is almost 10:00. However I should be home by noon so that should work out.

Just finished breakfast at Panera and now I am waiting for my post to WW to get sent. I will repeat it here because that way I don’t have to double type.

Good morning all. Thanks for the start up Nan. I do not have time to post to everyone I am busy with last minute stuff for my trip. I got my laundry and hair done over the weekend, today is the car and exercise and a manicure and pedicure, hopefully I can fit it all in and packing of course! I will be back later.

It’s a shame ron doesn’t serve alcohol I am here with the boys, i am starving and they are being themselves. It is a shame they don’t serve alcohol Posted by Bella at 7:25 PM 0 comments

Obviously I sent that last message from my phone while waiting for food at Ron’s. The boys were just being themselves, unfortunately I was so hungry I couldn’t stand it. It serves me right for waiting until 7:25 to get dinner.

I have finished my packing. I am ready to go. Well, I do have to print that e-mail from Travelosity before we go to the airport, but I kind of want to go to bed. I can’t think of anything else I need, except to clean my purse. I don’t even feel like doing that tonight. Except I just thought of something else I need to take. An extra pair of contacts and my glasses.

Mom asked me a question from my sister-in-law when we were on the phone and then tonight I got an e-mail from her asking the same question. I answered her e-mail just in case me or my mom forgot something. Now she will have too much information. I am so nervous about going.

>Call me stupid

>Yes REALLY, I have been feeling so bad, I completely forgot what weekend this was, my weekend to feel bad. Yes that weekend. Anyway, I managed to watch NCIS, had to restart it several times. But I managed it and it was a sad episode. And the team is split up. Well, Abby, Ducky and Palmer are still there. Abby has a really cool ringtone for her phone. Now I have to go take care of laundry.

I am sitting here, well I shouldn’t say sitting here, I am sort of reclining waiting for laundry to be done. Gwen’s laundry in the dryer and mine in the washer, anyway, the dryer just buzzed so I have to go.

Day is over and I have to go to sleep. Lots to do tomorrow, Tuesday I leave for Washington. I am taking my laptop with me but don’t know if I will be able to post from my parents house. I will be sending e-mails from my phone of course. Tigger said he was going to send me text messages all day long. We will see, M was threatening to take away his phone because of his recent behavior.

After the meeting M took the kids to Allsport so she could work out and they could swim. She called me to let me know they were coming home and did I want to go to the grocery store with her, D got home before they did, so M told him we were going to the store to get stuff to go with the chicken. Tigger wanted fries, for instance, so M had to get them. He said “OK”, well actually he kind of grumbled it, then we got in the car to go. M says, “Men pout a lot.” Since I don’t have a man, I didn’t know what to say, so I just went UH huh. So now, I am going to bed. Bye Bye
