Sheltering in Place, Mood Of Silence, Day 320....

 Got up way too early. Picked up JS and off we went to McPherson. Stopped at one dealer. He will call later. Another place had one car he liked. Time will tell. Smart to wait to find what you want and not rush in and make a bad decision.

Was rainy all day. I like rain and fog and snow. I rarely get a normal winter. Everyone is so excited for spring. Not me. I guess it is better that everyone is happy. Never seems fair to me.

Lunch was at Wendy's. Good but I was not too hungry. At home I tried to nap. But a small headache kept me awake.

Nico was sleeping but then he had to get into stuff up on a shelf. No amount of scolding stops him. He is upset because he thinks it is time for people food. He gets only a taste. And too early anyway.

Miss Kitty just made a horrible noise down the hall. I do not know what she gets into but I go to check, and all is well. It scared Nico and he dashed through the house ---- scattering the full dog food dish all over the floor. What a mess!!

Yesterday after I got home I realised I had lost a bracelet. A nice hand made one. I looked in the car and the yard and all over the house. Just now I spied it between my sofa cushions. Wow! I am so relieved.

I think my chauffeur days are over. Makes me sad. I had fun. We got to talk and laugh together. I am too used to sitting at home alone.

A friend sent to a place to sign up for the vaccine. And amazingly they asked for more than just my birthdate. They asked about my health, if I had anything on a list that was there. I actually feel hopeful for the first time. See what happens. Having serious health concerns that hurt my immune system should count for something. One would think.

Catching up on my soaps. I am way behind. Saturday Night Live is finally back on. Ready to laugh! Did have CNN on. Scares the hell out of me what happened. And we do not even have a clue of all there is. Why can things not just be good and happy?

Photos today are just a mix --- photos from today and others I just like. Nothing special.

Sheltering in Place, Mood Of Silence, Day 308......

  I seemed to be up more with Nico last night, but probably just because went to bed earlier. Ended up not feeling too rested.

I had lunch with a friend who I had not seen in a long time. A great reunion. He had lots of news ---- new job, engaged, and bought a house. And I caught up on his mom and brother. We exchanged phone numbers so easier to keep in touch. Had good food and good conversation. After lunch I got a tour of his house. Very nice. I like it. We will do this again soon!

I went to Dollar General for groceries. And forgot something. Go back tomorrow.

Came home for my usual nap. Not tired. Could not sleep. That is odd. Nico curled up so I rested next him and caught up on FB.

I have not felt quite normal. In many ways I feel better but still feel strange. Thought maybe my blood sugar was screwy and it is perfect. But getting better is good.

Nice weather today. Slight breeze and warm. Cooler tomorrow, warmer Wednesday, then another cool down. Maybe chances for rain or snow. Ha! Not here. Will be close but usually misses here. I think next winter the kids and I need to relocate to parts north.

Several people I know got the vaccine today or tomorrow. Wish it was me. Scared of Covid. Scared of getting no shot.

Photos today are some I took and some I saved because I like them. Mine will be shown first.

Sheltering in Place, Mood Of Silence, Day 253....

 Had a typical day at home alone. Just me and the kids with little contact online or otherwise with anyone. I am sort of used to it. But I dislike it. Did email one good friend several times. Always good! Wish we could get together.

Last night we had snow then rain come in. Rained into the morning. Did not amount to much. Rain and/or snow tomorrow. And cold.

This morning was special. Kisse is not a cuddly cat. She kind of used to be when she was little but I think Nico speaks enough "cat" to have told her to leave me alone since he is jealous. Big baby!!! They play and wrestle and eat out of the same bowl. But he is still jealous. This morning she came on the bed and curled up next to me. He ignored. She stayed a while. Maybe a first. Hope it happens more often.

Outside this afternoon and I saw the most beautiful long haired black cat. It was stalking something. Was a smaller yellow cat. They fought until I was seen. That is exactly why Kisse never goes out. Dangerous things here.

Bought some summer sausage that I ususally love. Different brand. It is ok but it makes me so sick to my stomach. I will eat no more. Dang.

Lots of news about the new vaccines. I try to be hopeful but the reality is I am no one important or rich. I live in a state that is almost always forgotten and in a tiny town that is overlooked. How long do I have to wait to get a vaccine? There is a whole world in line ahead of me.

Photos today are altered. Some are mine, some are not. And one or two I just like as they are. Not mine.
