What Day Is It?

Ok, let me first think of what day it is and then what I did on this cold, wet Wednesday! I slept until 10:20 this morning and I went to bed around 10 last night, too. I took no Klonopin but I did sleep well.

I went for a 30 minute walk today because it was raining. I don’t like walking in the rain so I did the minimum walk. Every time I reached a place in the walk where to turn one way would be longer and to turn the other would be shorter, I opted for the shorter one. Oh well, that is why I have choices of which way to turn. I am not going to be down on myself just because I chose the shorter routes; I certainly did do the minimum 30 minutes.

This afternoon I got a call from the library that last month’s book club book was reserved for me! I told Lee that I didn’t need it now. She also mentioned that the children’s librarian had left me the paperwork for  a reading mentor program I am interested in and so I decided to walk over there, return my library books, pick up this paperwork and get something else to read. The first thing I found was that it is a good thing that I got Reading Lolita in Terhan from Amazon because Amanda had still done nothing about borrowing extra copies from other libraries despite all her talk. I told her I had bought it and that she didn’t have to worry {ha!} about me.

Then I chatted to Lee who was working and she got me the paperwork which the children’s librarian had left for me. It all seems pretty straightforward except I have to give the names and addresses of six people who have known me a year! Well, I can’t put these people down as references unless I ask them so I have talked to three of them and am waiting for call-backs from the other three. {Short pause here because one of them just called} I also left a message on my older son’s machine because I haven’t heard from him in so long. Actually, I will try him again later because I always forget he lives in the Central Time Zone and I live in the News-At-Eleven Time zone and he was probably still at work!

There was a tiny little panic here this afternoon because I had totally forgotten I had a dental appointment at 2 pm! I had just finished lunch and was unwrapping a Schwan’s fudge stick {50 delicious calories} when Fred said, “It is 1:45! Aren’t you supposed to be at the dentist’s at 2 pm?” Whoops! Put the fudge stick in the refrigerator, quick trip to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wish I had not eaten that salad with the onion in it, and I went flying out of the door! As I walked in, I saw Penni, the hygenist, sitting waiting for me which is unusual since I usually wait for her. Anyway, I apologized and she laughed and said I was only one minute late. I also apologized for the onion-breath! She made my day by asking if I had lost more weight since I was there six months ago and so I got to tell her I had. The whole trip took about an hour, cost me $85 and I now have sparklingly clean teeth. Actually, I do take care of my teeth. I have a Sonicare brush and I floss at least twice a day and very often more often.

Ok, I just saved this and noticed the date is still on yesterday. For some reason it does not update automatically for me unless I hit refresh! I do know it is December 1at even though my diary doesn’t.!

Until later…
