I see my doctor at 10:30, and I'm hoping I can get more muscle relaxers and pain meds out of her.  I also need to call physical therapy and see if my referral for more sessions was approved.

Last night I had two dreams I remember bits of.  In the first, I was a 2nd or 3rd rate German comedian named Hans in a comedy act with my wife and another man.  In the dream, the other man had not show up, and my wife and I were performing on a platform about 12 feet wide and maybe 10-15 feet long, about 20 feet off the ground.  I was having major acrophobia issues since there were no guard rails , and the big crowd we were promised was a handful of people in a huge space.

In the second dream, my cousin Sue Ellen and I were in a store like Target or Walmart.  I was looking at the magazine rack for something, then I bought a chap stick at the register.  She and I went to a lower level to meet my dad to celebrate his 98th birthday, which will actually be this coming December 14.

Today's fresh hell:  as I sat on the toilet seat and sifted the litter, a drop of water fell on me.  I have a bad ceiling leak.  Because I currentl;y cannot stand up straight, it's an ordeal to look up,  The ceiling shows signs of a leak that has run across the ceiling above the sink and the toilet and to the corner where the litter box sits.  I am not happy about this.

Our neighbor has already plowed, which is a godsend. I'll still have work to do with the snowblower. But even more critical is the salting and sanding I'll have to do later, on the stuff that's still on the road from Round One of this storm.

We got about three inches of snow on top of that last night.

I winterized my bed in late October because of the sudden cold spell.  Since then I've been sleeping every night under a sheet and no more.  I don't know when the apartment's going to be cold again!

The building super just stopped by to check out the bathroom ceiling and take a few photos of it.  He then went upstairs to check on the neighbor above me.  He knows I'll be out for a couple of hours to see the doctor, so hopefully things will be in action by the time I return.

I dislike it when getting up the driveway almost doesn't happen.  Even worse, of course, was when I did not make it up the driveway.  In Ashland we had a scary road we had to get up before reaching the driveway.

I’m back from snow-blowing in the areas where the plow doesn’t go, and there were only a couple of places to shovel-scrape. Thankfully, Mister Sun is finishing the job of clearing the remaining snow and ice off the front slope of the driveway. Our early morning salting started the process. Hopefully, all is well for the next several days.

The allergy attack continues. I’m told it’s mold in the air. Many coworkers are suffering as well.

I am beginning to think Keith is right and that my allergies are just bad and not a cold.  A cold would have progressed some by now.

I read that about mold.  Also that the dust & dust mites are bad in the winter.  Years ago when I did allergy testing I believe my top 2 were mites & dust.  Grass & mold were high on the list.

Just a thought related Jennifer Tepper.  Maybe that's an advance that's not talked about enough, that  we've made in this inclusion era for theater;  Now millennial white non-disabled female producers can oppress struggling artists trying too get a break just like the rich older white male producers do.

 It's something.  Progress, right?

Like a whole new generation of anti-human rights activists.

Worked straight through lunch and up until 6pm tonight....but I completed a job the boss thought couldn’t be done by 1 person today

Unlike your old boss I am sure he appreciated the extra time you spent completing it.

They practically threw me a parade.  I have been so conditioned by the old place I was getting quite embarrassed

Turns out between specials and a credit I didn’t know I had I’ll be getting pizza, wings and a 2 liter for $5.49

The day just got better :)

At the most I would have had only one bite of that cake.  I hope you enjoyed it.

I spoke with Mom. She has Dad in the home that several of her friends went to, though I don't know how long she'll be able to afford it. They do have him under observation, so he won't wander off. But it sounds like they don't do anything else with him. He just sits there. As does everyone else. Not a good scene, if you ask me. But she might be able to get some rest while he's there.

This must be heartbreaking for you.  It does not sound like rehab at all.

It's not. It's a memory care unit. And it's sad.

I think one of the problems inherent in a series like this is that there's little tension between Poldark and Demelza. They're too much at peace and in love with each other.

I urge you to consider a home aide.  We were able to have help 7 days a week at home at a cost of about 1/4th of that of a facility.

For 9 years Echo and I visited nursing homes.  In Ashland I became very involved doing activies, going on outings, and working other activities on top of our pet therapy visits.  DR John my heart goes out to your family.

I guess I have that to look forward to.  My dad is showing signs of dementia.  It seems to have been coming on just in the last year or so...at least as far as I know.  Both his mom and my mom's mom had Alzheimer's, so it's on both sides of my family. :-\

Actually, both my grandmothers did have Alzheimer's, and they both died quite a few years ago with (from?) it.

That's good!  My dentist retired a few years ago, and the woman who bought his practice was part of a chain of dentists.  She left about a year later to move back to California because her husband had medical issues, then a younger (and fairly attractive ;) ) man became the main dentist.  But through it all, I've had the same dental hygienist for over 10 years.
