Monday Nothing

 

BERJAYA
I have a new Amaryllis, not this one. 

Today, we both spent over two hours on the phone, trying to rent a car. No such luck. At midnight, I asked him when he was going to get a car. What car? He said if I wanted to rent one, get it. So, no doctor trips this week and no Christmas party.

PT person was an hour late because she forgot the time to come. That meant she and cleaner were both here, and Tommy was paying cleaner. So, I tended to Tommy, cleaner and pt person. It was a wild, to me, occasion. Tommy and cleaner hooked up lights to deer and electricity. 

There are four candles on a gold deer antler, but I only had two batteries, just enough for one candle. Oh well. We will buy more. 

Four people with two lift chairs and one chair not available (stacked too high) made this room so crowded.

PT hurt lots, but they were easy exercises...like raising leg 20 times. She did not tell me to do them every day, but I will. 

I lost another 4 pounds today. That makes 32 lbs in last three months or so.  I don't think I have noted the four pound loss yet

PT person was trying to hold onto me. I had a time making her stop touching me! It makes me feel off balance! I do not want to fall. She was about five feet tall, not enough to keep me from falling. She put together my Ellipse. I tried it a bit. It seems very fast even though it is slow. And, I had it on the slowest speed. 

I did have cleaner dust in living room, shake bathroom rugs, and vacuum hall, my bedroom, and kitchen. I told her to vacuum, not move things, so this was a middle of floor vacuum. She did little, but it was not her fault there was someone here. I told her to leave rugs outside for Tommy to wash, but she did not, and he did not. I was too distracted by PT. 

It was 67F degrees today. I finally had to turn on AC. It has been so hot at night I may turn it on tonight.

The coughing and sneezing are somewhat less. I find it hard to believe I will be well by Christmas. However, I am making progress. Since I cannot find all decorations since last cleaner moved them somewhere, the three tomato cage trees will be te last of decorations.

News of lollipops is upcoming.

Are your Christmas plans coming along? 

I have not gotten any cards mailed. How about you?

SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT

 We had a wreck!  A car slammed right into front side and fender. The driver was going fast, entering the roadway from our right. He hit side front and ripped around front of the car, dug his way into median, crossed road coming from opposite direction, went off the side of the road, dug out the shoulder, turned and came back up across the median behind us! 

Whew! Then, he came limping up by Tommy's window, still in the median, said something fast in Spanish, indicated knee he was holding and went back to his car. He drove up onto the road and stopped by my window. He said something and pointed to Chicago Bulls patch and said "Burro, Burro." Then, he his the gas like a bat out of Hell, sped away and ran the red light ahead and continued speeding. 

We called police. Tommy said there was a policeman right around that corner watching for speeders. They got him! We only know he got a hit and run. What else? We have no idea. 

The car will drive. But, wheel or something scrubs. I have to fight my way out of the car and try hard to close it. Oh, Nerves are shot.

I was warning Tommy about his encroachment into our lane, but it all happened so quickly.
