Sunday 10/9/22

5:40am I never did finish that chapter. I fell asleep. I didn’t sleep very well. I had one nightmare after another. I do not remember the dreams except I woke up screaming several times. The aide came in to to wake me up at 5:30.

Well, I’m above the dirt and in my wheelchair. I won’t be functioning until I get  my coffee. I hope I can stay awake . I’d like to read my book Freedom from Fear. But it doesn’t look like I’m in going to make it till breakfast. 

1:36pm  I had a messed up morning. Breakfast was good. I had my favorite , pancakes, scrambled eggs, hot uuverel and two coffees. I tried to read after I ate. I managed to finish the first chapter of my book. But I fell asleep and spt most of the morning away.

Lunch was good. I had hpork, baked potato, peas and a piece of pumpkin pie. Coffee was nice and hot. I talked with Chocolatechip after I ate. She complains of having bronchitis and upper respiratory problems. Chocolatechip says she has bee coughing up mucus most of the morning.

She also complained about the ongoing bed bud problem. Chocolatechip said she felt one last night. Chocolatechip also said she doesn’t see then sll that much. She got rid of her couch, air bed and sprayed her apartment. Chocolatechip is pretty yclean and an excellent housekeeping keeper. They are coming in from someplace else.

We talk for s long time.  We talked s little bit about the fun stuff we used to do. One time the Senior center sponsored a trip to the Pittsburgh Zoo. We went on that trip. It was a nice trip but we bought the got paranoid about being stranded up there Despite that we had a good time.

I have been using my new Kindle. I accidentally dropped Ed my tablet a couple days ago. I’m having a hard time using the keyboard. A lot of the letters will not type. I’m afraid I might have to invest in another tablet next month. The Kindle is working fine except it will not play my audible books.

So it is back to reading the old fashioned way. I kind of like reading the actual written word. I think I learn more and get more from reading a book rather than actually listening to one. I immerse myself in a good book and forget about everything. Besidesthese audible books are very expensive.

I am having a good day. I am not in a lot of pain. I enjoyed my meals and talking to Chocolatechip. I do not feel anxious or depressed.  Life is pretty good. 

8:26pm I didn’t like my supper at all. I had a veggie and pizza. It was more like plain baked bread with no topping. I had a tossed sld s well I’m and that was good. I never thought there would be a day where I didn’t like pizza for supper.

I talked with Chocolatechip fter I ate. I’m very worried about her. She is still pretty sick coughing up mucus. I wondered if  her illness will run it’s course. She said if he it is a respiratory I’ll see she will need meds. But she isn’t going to the doctor for it. We talked about different subjects unto 7 then she went to bed.

I started to read my book Freedom from Fear: The American People in Depression and War. I finished the second  chapter in my book. It  was about the beginning of the great depression and Hoover’s response. I read for a couple hours and learned something new about Hoover.

I should be going to bed now. I’m tired and wired at the same time. I probably will read some more. I want to start reading chapter 3
