Saturday, November 8, 2025 The POTD is Sophie imitating me today. I can sleep on my left side now. And I did. I got my medicine drop at 8am before Keith left for rehearsal, then slept until 11am. He brought lunch. I went back to sleep until 5pm. I felt so much better after all […]

Friday, November 7, 2025 I slept in a chair using an inflatable airplane pillow thing. It worked pretty well except I found out that it has a small hole in it and every hour or so it would deflate and my lack of breathing ability would wake me up. I got more sleep than I

Thursday, November 6, 2025 A lady with the biggest hair I have ever seen on a real person came into the waiting room just after we got some forms to fill out. She was the driver for the other lady who was supposed to check in 45 minutes after we just had. She looked at

Wednesday, November 5, 2025 I have been on my right side all day. I watched some TV and listened to an audio book. Being just still makes you think you are sick. I got up a few times and toddled out to the family room like I was recovering from something. I am perfectly fine

Tuesday, November 5, 2025 Louise won!!! I am so happy our community will benefit from Louise’s thorough, careful, thoughtful, informed opinions. I am so happy our community was smart enough to vote for her. YAY! I was just on my right side for most of the day. Resting on my right side causes inadvertent naps.

Monday, November 3, 2025 Alexander saw an ad for a puppet extravaganza. He invited us to a secret anniversary outing and we were very excited. He didn’t tell us what we were doing (aside from sitting outside for an hour – dress warmly), so that added to the fun. It was a beautiful, warm night

Sunday, November 2, 2025 We started with Dracula by the Collide Dance troupe. Donna, Michael, EB, Keith and I went. It was spook-a-bunch. There was an intermittent audible narrator, but it was primarily just dance. At one point, we were watching the lovely “bride” dance before her wedding – up on her toes so beautifully

Saturday, November 1, 2025 I sat down in the chair. The optometrist asked what was going on. “I have a shiny spot on my left eye on the left side. It started yesterday.” (Keith reminded me it started on Thursday after I got home) He gave me the paddle and I covered my left eye.

Friday, October 31, 2025 There is so much Halloween at Disneyland that it makes you feel like you are celebrating a big deal holiday – a whole holiday season.. It was nice to go from Disney Halloween straight into real Halloween. I went to school dressed as the word of the year – six seven.

Thursday, October 30, 2025 We were so sore everywhere this morning. It was pretty comical. We Lyfted to the airport, got on the plane, watched two movies, Alexander picked us up (with pastries!) and we had McDonald’s. Now I am going to bed. Less happened today than recent days.
