Tuesday Evening 1/10/22

6:39p.m. I seemed to have lost half an entry. Oh well. Such is life life. I just wrote about my boring day.Aftet breakfast I slept most of the morning. They had  wake me when they served drinks. I had the usual two cups of coffee and a glass of oj. I had the usual breakfast food eggs. toast and oatmeal cereal. Coffee and this good food did not perk me up. I slept most of the morning away.

I woke up just before lunch. I was looking at my call log. I saw where Chocolatechip gave me a call at 6:25a.m. I returned her call. She said it wad a mistake. We had a nice talk. She explained to me about the permanent breakup. She said it had nothing to do with me. We parted on good terms wishing each other the best. I felt a little better.

Then I had a delicious lunch. They served fish Florentine, roasted potatoes, dinner roll and peas. I had a fruit cup for desert plus the usual coffee and juice. I felt a bit better after eating a good meal but was still sleepy.

I didn’t get much sleep this afternoon. I had physical therapy right after lunch. I did the usual exercises designed to improve dexterity and my ability to reach. I had a hard time with one exercise but Lynn, my coach.said I did a good job. Then I had to stand I stood for over three minutes while holding onto the parallel bar. I think this was a record. Lynn wanted me to try again but my knees were hurting too much.

She took me back to my room. I was really proud of myself. I read /listened to my book Restless Giant: The United States from Watergate to Bush v Gore by James T Patterson. I started on Chapter 4 with here the author discussed the Carter and Reagan years. I got a bit sleepy when the author began talking about Ronald Reagan.

I put the tablet down when I was getting sleepy. It was getting close to supper time. I had a double hamburger, beef vegetable soup and French fries. I didn’t eat the fries because they were cold.

That pretty much sums up my day. I’m going to get lost in my book for the night. 

10:12 p.m. I am having a very pleasant evening. I am reading !y book Restless Giant. I managed to finish reading chapter four. I started reading the next chapter where Patterson discusses Ronald Reagan. He thought gave a brief bio then talked about the election of 1980. I found these chapters to be very interesting. I was twenty-nine at the time and remember those years well.

I feel pretty good tonight. I’m tired and despite sleeping in my wheelchair most oof the day I want to stay up and read. I’ve been in my wheelchair since five in the morning. I’d like to try and stay up to read one more chapter. But my bedtime depresseds on whenever the aide puts me to bef.
