Wednesday, Dec 4th, 2019…… The day started out ok. Temps in the mid to
high 30s. I never thought I’d say that would ever be comfortable weather! But I
was good to go. I guess I’m getting used to it now! I got Rylee out and walked and fed and then
headed out to get breakfast/coffee/tea. I had one more thing to do regarding
decorations - the snowflakes. I went up into the alcove and put those up there
and also did the front windows. I think we are done decorating now. Today was
bingo. Lydia opted out of mahjong yesterday because she didn’t want to sit for a
long period and have her ankle swell. But today she took her shower and then
decided to go give it a try. I know it was hard for her but she wanted to go.
She sat there and enjoyed herself for most of afternoon and got through the
pain and actually won a game! But she
was hurting when we left. Afterward, we stopped by and picked up some
poinsettias from Teri, the lady who cuts our hair. I got her back home and she
took some Tylenol and rested her leg and tried to relax for a while. I went out
later and picked up dinner and we settled in and watched Survivor and The
Masked Singer before calling it a night. They unmasked The Butterfly. I didn’t
guess this one because I was not familiar with Michelle Williams so we had no
clue. But we have gotten six of the ten so far and we think we know who three
of the last six left might be.
Thursday, Dec 5th, 2019…… Nothing on the agenda today. The weather is back to yucky. We actually had
a nice sunny day yesterday but today it is overcast and/or foggy. Today was not a good day for Lydia. She is
still under severe pain in her foot. It hurts when she walks (so she has been
trying to stay off of it) and it also hurts when she’s in bed – more of an aggravating
pain that won’t go away no matter what position she puts her leg in. We have
the adjustable bed and she has her feet elevated as much as she can but nothing
really helps. I googled neuropathy and found that she has advanced symptoms
which is causing the pain she is describing. But since the doctor has seen the
mri and thinks it’s a stress fracture, there may be some treatment available
when we go in next week. Meanwhile, I am trying to get her needs taken care of.
Sometimes I go get us breakfast, sometimes she just wants toast or an egg
sandwich, which I can do. Today, she pretty much stayed in her jammies all
morning and only got dressed after noon. We didn’t go anywhere but she wanted
to dress anyway. I guess that’s a good sign. I went and got us Jack in the Box
burgers for dinner and we settled in for the night and watched our programs until
bedtime.
Friday, Dec 6th, 2019…… No rain yet, but it’s supposedly coming later
tonight. I decided to try omelets for breakfast. Not my strong suit! They sure didn’t look right but they at least
didn’t taste bad. And they filled us up.
Today was
picture day. Our realtor, Aimee’s office does an event each year at the Carousel
in Albany. They have refreshments and photos with Santa. This was last year’s….
