I’m taking my mid-afternoon computer time. Today’s notes:
- I loved the blouse Blanche was wearing yesterday, it’s a really nice white flowing cotton she says her daughter got for her in Turkey. i asked her to leave it to me in her will and she said she would. hehe
- My roommate is supposed to be going home next friday. it can’t come soon enough… let her family put up with her talking/yelling at herself and weird noises! she has her nice moments, of course. i got her a cookie the other night and she almost cried.. “you’re so sweet, can i pay you?” i told her you don’t pay people for being nice to you lol she really likes me because i am nice and patient with her… i do realize she is older, in pain, and not all there in the head. that doesnt make it any less annoying for me though, so i just vent elsewhere!
- It took them awhile to come get me after dinner last night (i have to wait for someone to walk with me). Blanche, who arrives at all meals fashionably late and leaves last, said they must have forgotten about me. I said “oh, they’ll realize sooner or later how quiet it is down at their end and realize they’re missing something” haha
- Today has been a great day so far. Jocelyn was here again to help me out, Lisa came by with the sandals i need to walk with my new brace AND she brought me some awesome stuff… including the sunflower painting Emma did for me, a photo album she put together with pictures of my kitties, and a box of Purdy’s chocolates! THEN, around 1:00 AH came by with Tim Horton’s coffee and visited for awhile.
- I have the most thoughtful friends on earth.
- Now I’m off to join in the “ice cream social” before walking with my new brace. Later tonight my mom and Bob will be here and we’re making another attempt to sneak in the kittens. Cross your fingers!
Ice cream social?!? I need a room in this Care Centre! LOL.
Wait a second-I left the Care center around 1:15…lol so once again I missed AH’s entrance-I swear, he has got this all perfectly timed so he can continue to be all mysterioso with us! lol
Your roomie is so cute-I loved how she was listening to you get her to put on her slipper and saying, “Ok” just like a little kid. Priceless. Too bad I couldn’t spend time with you in the garden outside but the weather is going to be SUPER nice so I hope to be able to sit in the garden again in the sunshine soon!!
It looks like my Crocs are a hit at the care center-lol one lady stopped me while I was on the cell phone to ask all about them-not to mention the other 2 ladies in the parking lot! ha
Now I gotta meet Blanche so I can feel all good about myself with her comments!!
Ps-Michelle, the real ticket is the care center-ice cream socials, people who tell you that you are a goddess-that place is where “all the party at” lol
And-so glad to hear the kitties made a visit!!!!
LOL, I was going to say anywhere I get called a Goddess would be a good place. But then I remembered that an ex used to call me that and it brought back all the memories of him.
I don’t think I want to be called a goddess after all!
Hi Donna! Got such a shock when I found out you’d broken your wrist. I’m so sorry for you, been thinking for you all day.
You probably don’t want to hear me being all gushy over you again, but once more I have to say that you’re handling it like a star. You are strong, woman.
Who’s looking after Pita and darling Pepper?
Get well soon.
(Oh, and you have my sympathies with the roommate. Been there, done that, lol.
