Today

 Today I drove to Brandon for that TB test I need for the drugs the doctor wants to give me. It was like entering a prison!  Once I was admitted (arm band and everything) I was directed to turn right at the doors. What doors???  I realized  Once I got there, that the hallway had doors. So, the doors are locked. Look around… press the button and face the camera!!  The doors open. A very long hallway with no people at all. Finally I see people. They told me to go sit on a chair and they would be with me. I had to go back and ask, cause all the chairs were reclying treatment chairs. So, as I was sitting there, the only person other than staff, I could hear them answering the phones. “No, we are booked solid all day. We can’t take anyone else???  Anyway, they injected something under my skin and said you have to sit here for 20 minutes. I said “ you realize I am missing curling for this?”  The nurse looked around and said “ no one else is here. Come with me”. She took me to the dialisis room and turned on the TV. I got to see the 6th end where Canada stole 3!  I have to go back Monday for a 5 second appointment. All they have to do is look at my arm to see if I have reacted. 1 hour in and back each,  plus parking☹️. I might try to see if their is a friend available that wants to go shopping. I will be in bed early tonight, cause, for some reason I was really sick last night (both ends) and didn’t sleep well. I was afraid I would be cancelling , but this morning I felt okay. I only had a few sips of 7-up and a cracker, just in case, but I made it okay. And, ( believing I was rich😜) I bought grapes today!! ( no lettuce, not that rich).  Love you guys♥️♥️♥️

The energy-sucking garage sale panic is over.

  We both made it through the day without faltering, very much looking forward to a good nap once things were over.  But then were so high couldn't sleep.  Both Loren and Amber were there to help us, with Amber stopping at Tim's for breakfast on her way.   I was up and immediately dressed at 7:00 (Omg!  It even hurts to be able to say that)  Then off in the car to set up 5 signs.  Of course, each stop one has to find a place to park, get out of the car, place the sign, and reverse the process.  That finished, I parked in the mall across the way, pulled my walker out of the car, and trudged off home.  I was so glad to have the walker during the day, mainly because the float was hidden in the small zipper compartment in the walker and I sat on it most of the day.  We moved the patio table and umbrella to the front yard.  Amber and I spent most of the day there, while Loren and Dave spent their time in the garage, until later in t...

Baking

  Yesterday I forgot to mention that I've become concerned about how much money we've been spending on muffins.  So I decided to try baking them on my own.  We got rid of all my baking pans at the garage sale so had to make a trip to Dollarama for a new one.  It's silicone and soft and wiggly, but also dishwasher safe.  I've made some Blueberry muffins that didn't rise very well.  Turned out the baking powder was over a year past it's "best before" date.  Went out and bought more. I've found recipes on-line for Banana Chocolate Chip, Chocolate, and another Blueberry that uses frozen berries rather than thawed--great--as all of mine are Frozen.  I'm also going to look for a recipe for Bran, but not today.

Yes. It is Sunday again

  Time keeps passing. Faster and faster every day. We had freezing rain last night and this morning but it seems to have stopped for now, but that damp chill goes right through me!  Lucky and Ally are both sleeping so is almost like having time to myself. I did walk Lucky this morning but we stayed off the road. We went around the trail cause it wasn’t icy. Less dangerous for both of us. I snuggled down this weekend but I will have to venture out tomorrow.  Hopefully the roads will be clear. They don’t look bad right now so it is promising. I get my flu shot on Wednesday and Ally has a vet appointment on Friday. And I’m going to call for a lawyer appointment tomorrow.  Chloe is going to have her “old people” birthday party on the 18th. Kik and I will go together. And I told Kik I would go to Winnipeg with her on the 14th. I hate the time change. I was awake very early this morning, even though Lucky stayed sleeping until 6:30!  It’s just going to be an extra lon...
