Gingerbread Day

Today's Name Day: Bo

    I cancelled today.  Still really tired.  Worries me.  And not much healthy food here.  Or what is here I am too tired to fix.  Maybe spring fever.  I had trouble sleeping last night.  Doing some RA reading & that is part of RA.  I knew that.  Whether I nap or not I have trouble falling asleep.  Never get adjusted to it.

    I had Sprite/Orange Crush ordered to be delivered today,  Now delayed until tomorrow.  Dang.  I have a V8 power drink for tomorrow.  Hope it perks me up.  Gotta get a can in the fridge.  Cannot drink it warm.

    Cinder stayed with me most of the night but outside today.  In the heat.  

    I saw 91F. Far too hot for me.  but a nice breeze.  Had storms last night but nada here, as usual.  I just ignore the weather.  All the listings of who got an inch or so.  All I ever get is 0.1 inch.  Worthless.  Big rains forecast for friday & saturday.  Not excited.  We will get nothing.  Temps to stay around 90, give or take.  😫

    Not much communication today.  Normal.  Others have lives, unlike me.

    Been wearing my new glasses.  At first I did not like them, but now I do.  They are very light.  And sort of stay where I want them to.

    Still back pain.  Keep my heating pad on with pain cream.  Plan on working tomorrow.  I hate not being there.

    Photos today are from my memories.  I took many of them

                            

I took this in a meditation garden.

Mine maybe had it in my driveway.

My wheat.  Not looking this good this year.  Sad.

I took this one.  Lucky shot.

One year had a huge mushroom in my yard.  Took several photos & put the best 3 together.

Not mine.

Took both.

Sheltering in Place, Mood Of Silence, Day 228......

 Quiet and warmer day. I slept off and on last night.

Early this morning I took Nico out. I saw a head above the tall weeds in the pasture. A deer was watching us! Later I saw a very large bird fly up from my pond. No idea what it was. Maybe a heron. Not a hawk or vulture. I like living out here where  you see things not seen in town.

Stayed home all day. Almost drove to town but did not feel like it. Too lazy to get dressed. The longer the quarantine lasts, the less I care. And I sort of feel that no one cares about me either. Part of being alone so often.

Having less pain. Found a small bottle of pain spray. Seems to help. I was looking forward to seeing my doctor in Wichita but am having second thoughts. Almost all the ICU beds are full in Wichita. I do not need to go there. Dang. Maybe she can order a different med that helps with pain. Hard to show her what is wrong on a video. And she can only guess what is wrong with my hips. Just cannot win. Hard when I need help but to get it must put myself in danger.

Idiots are out today. Had to delete from my group on FB people who posted that Covid is a hoax. Just in Wichita with almost all ICU beds full of Covid patients, that is not a hoax. Same over most of the US. Good God no wonder we cannot get ahead of it. We are doomed with people like this preaching false things.

Warmer weather is here and no rain forecast. We got next to zilch the last two days. South of us got more than here. My county is almost 3 inches behind in rain. Other places got more and they needed it.

Today would have been my parent's 79th wedding anniversary. I added a couple of photos of me with them. One is me and Mom in a Glamor Shot. One is a very old Christmas card with my parents. Amazing, I used to be cute! What happened!?

Also have a photo of Nico playing like an ancient Blackjack dealer and edited photos.
