Tuesday 10/3/23

9:39a.m. I had a fairly good night. I read until mine then fell asleep.  I didn’t have any nightmares or weird dreams. Aides woke me up at 4:30. Then I slept in my wheelchair until breakfast. I had toast and cold scrambled eggs The coffee was hot but I could of used a second cup  I fell asleep again and slept until Chococolatechip called.

Chococolatechip was in good spirits this morning.  She had a quiet night and slept good. She went on a about never ending doctor’s appointments and budget. One thing s he talked about was getting me an Amazon gift card. Chococolatechip said she wants me to get that new John Grisham novel, another r favorite author. I said there are no end to the books I want. The important thing is for you to get a backup air bed. She agreed but said she might have money for a gift card. We talked briefly then she wanted to clean her kitchen.

I was like a zombie this morning. I fell asleep again. I slept until it was time for the Coffee Social.  They are having it at 9:30 now. I’m in the Fiesta Room room drinking coffee my second cup. I hope the extra coffee will finally get me going. 

1:12p.m. I was half asleep at the coffee social. It took four cups of coffee to get me going. Then I had a big lunch. They served baked fish, paprika potatoes, blended  vegetables, a dinner roll and peaches.it was pretty good and I ate it all. Coffee and a good meal finally brought me to the Land of the living

I made my way back to my room after I ate. I called Chocolatschip. She is expecting groceries from Krogers this afternoon. She also said that her daughter Anne is going to get her al new keyboard. And her daughter Theresa is getting her a new winter coat from Amazon. K dId that was wonderful. Chococolatechip said she refuses to end up so low on groceries at the end of this month. This means no more hamd outs to Eddie the  Moocher I said good! 

I didn’t read at the Social. I was just too damned tired Besides my Kindle app was giving me trouble. I did not feel like messing with it.  I just sat in my wheelchair like a drunk with a hangover guzzling one coffee after another. I’m awake now thanks to food and coffee. 

4:54p.m. I had a bad afternoon. I had pain down below thanks to dried urine and the Hoyer pad. I sat in it until 3:30. The aides finally came to put me to bed and changed my briefs. I feel much better being off that damned Hoyer pad. Despite the pain I have did a lot of reading. It took me two hours but I read almost two chapters in my book which is getting good. I just finished reading a particularly scary chapter

I’m having a good supper tonight. They are serving Swedish meatballs over noodles. Lunch didn’t make me sick so I’m looking forward to this meal. Despite eating a lot  I am getting hungry.

6;19p.m. I had two greasy turkey with Swiss cheese sandwiches and Garlic tater tots. Supper sucked! I ate the sandwiches. I hope to God I don’t get sick tonight Also, the coffee was cold. I had enough coffee anyway . This makes a perfect end to bad day.
