LIFE WITH ITS UPS AND DOWNS-ok

I guess it’s good that life has its ups and downs. Things don’t get boring. There is always something new under the sun. There is always a different bump in the road. I guess it keeps us on our toes. It keeps us from getting too complacent.

I just spoke to my daughter. She has a cold again. I don’t know why. Is it because she doesn’t look after herself? Is it because she goes from the heat into the air conditioning. I don’t know.

Anyhow she told me that she read something on Facebook written by my ex DIL. Apparently a few minutes after my DIL wrote it she deleted it. It said something to the effect that someone pretends to love my grandson BUT she is only pretending and trying to control people’s lives. I am not sure who she was referring to. I know she called my son the other day and was very upset. She didn’t really explain why. I have a feeling my ex DIL was writing about my son’s girlfriend.

Yesterday was my grandson’s birthday. We arrived home from Toronto in time to attend the party. I don’t know why we have to be there. It is really for kids. We bought my grandson the Nintendo DS and everyone else got him games so he was a very happy camper.

Today I went shopping very early in the morning because my cleaning lady needed some supplies. Boy I hate spending money for cleaning stuff. Use soap and water!!!!!! Then I went on the treadmill and did some back exercises.

I had breakfast and then did a little reorganizing. I brought the TV from the guest room to the kitchen as the volume from the TV in the kitchen didn’t have a good volume control. On some channels I couldn’t hear anything.

I took up the filing boxes from my hubby’s room and put them into my book room as I do the filing now. I am able to see exactly where our money is going.

I also brought another table to the book room so I would have more room for my art supplies. I wonder just how many times I have changed things in this house. We have been here over forty years!!!!!!!!!!!

This weekend we start camping. I am not sure when we’ll go – probably early Friday.

We have some doctor appointments. One is for hearing tests. One for the gyno. One for a bone density test. I hope it shows I don’t need the pills anymore. Probably not as I don’t take them very regular. I also have to go for another blood test as the last one showed an overactive thyroid. So I will be busy with doctors. YUK!

I think I’ll go relax now although I had a nap this afternoon. I feel so warm even though the air is on…………..

family dynamics can be tiring…it will be good to get away camping for a bit. Colds are a viral thing….but if her immunity is low she will of course be more subseptible to one. I was just listening to a radio expert and he says people who sleep less have a lower immunity to colds. Thats why we need rest when we are ill I guess. hugs P

Oh boy your family sounds like mine. Hope daughter gets over that cold quickly. Vitamin C, and zinc plus lots of rest. So orange juice is great for a cold and then zinc. Love,

I’m pretty certain that the bone meds are for life. If you quit taking them, they begin to get thin again.
