A Day in the Life

I have a lot going through my mind and will create another blog entry for today.

As minor as it seems I think a lot about blue jeans. I have perhaps 10 pairs of jeans and none of them fit. I can cinch the belt but they still have a tendency to fall off. I hope we can resolve that this weekend when Diana is home and can take me to the store. In the meantime, I look like the falling pants video.
I usually get up before Diana leaves for work. I loaf around a while sipping a cup of juice and then eat a light breakfast. Then I take a nap. That lasts until Diana arrives at work and gives me a call to let me know she arrived safely, an important thing.

The next thing in line is cleaning up. We have a very nice shower with hand braces but I feel shaky using it so I don't do that unless she's home to call 911 in case I fall and concuss myself. We do have a seat for the shower but I am not comfortable using it.

After that I recline on the couch and scan through news items on my iPad. That is a super device. In addition to being able to browse the web I can play the occasional game. The current favorite is Card Shark Solitaire. I play Klondike 3. I have downloaded a version of one of the most popular games, Crazy Birds, but it hasn't grabbed hold of me... yet. Oh, yeah. I also play Australian Patience. My current win percentage in 5%. Not easy.

Light lunch and some more napping. Under other circumstances I might feel guilty but  I don't.

I usually watch a movie I've recorded. Showtime and HBO were on my bucket list. Every now and then there's a good movie. More often it just becomes background noise.

Kibbitz has adapted herself to my schedule. She snoozes a lot. Right now she is having eye problems. The vet first diagnosed her with pinkeye. Whatever it is, it's more serious with that. Our vet can't cure it so we will take Kibbitz to a dog ophthalmologist (limited office hours) later this week.

Diana returns home in the early evening. She fixes supper. I did that once this week and make a horrible mess.

Kibbitz perks up and we play with her a while.

We then watch one, maybe two, of the shows we've recorded. Current favorites are "In Plain Sight,"  "Warehouse 13," "Rizzoli and Isles,"and of course "The Big C."

Diana just let me know that the Comments button doesn't work. I have to adjust it.

Enough for now.
