New Things

On monday evening I started a Swedish class. The teacher, G, expected maybe 20 people. There were 33!!! The room was not large enough! It was a fun class. We worked on pronunciation.  I think it helps me that I know some Swedish. I can read some. If perusing a newspaper  I can figure out what most of the articles are about. And even read some. But pronunciation is hard. G has a good way of explaining and I find it easier than I have in the past.

Monday afternoon I went to Abilene to pick up some meds. And there was a delay. No refills on my insulin. How does that happen? I cannot live without it. Dumb doctor's office. Pharmacy finally called the office. Well, someone there said my new diabetic doc had cancelled my insulin. Not likely. What an idiot. She looked further and saw that was wrong. I finally got an order. Good to know I won't die this week. I have pretty much had my fill with dumb people. They are multiplying like rabbits.

Tuesday a friend and I went to visit a sick friend in the hospital. What a change from last week!! Great to see!! And I got news tonite they removed her feeding tube. Before we visited we ate at the newly renovated Swedish Crown. It is gorgeous! After the visit we had tea at the White Peacock. Great place!

Today was a good day. Went with my daughter N to Salina. We ate at a  Chinese buffet. Awesome! Fun to be with her and visit. Unfortunately my knees were bad today. Shopping was miserable. I really wanted to browse some.

We did make it around the new Ulta, sells makeup, perfumes, hair care. I got a gift for a friend and makeup for me. I love that place!

Then home to nap. Even though I am sleeping better. Taking Melatonin is helping. Why did I edever stop?

Very sad about the huge earthquake in Mexico City. I have friends there. I heard from their brother here and from them also that all are fine. What a relief. Scary. We have little ones we can feel here sometimes. Do not like them.
