No screeners today.  More interestingly, no mail - I really don't think our mail person shows up a couple of times a week.  There's always some junk to deliver, and I've been home all but an hour of today and have certainly seen no sign of a mail truck or person anywhere.

I have been out of bed since about 5:30, not because I was rested; but rather because I was having severe leg cramps.  That is usually a side effect of being exhausted.  I will probably have to nap a couple of times today.

Most my life I have been prone to severe leg and foot cramps.  Fortunately they aren't as bad as they used to be.  I discovered it wasn't easy to maneuver through a mosquito bed, without falling, when getting out of bed in the middle of the night to walk out a cramp.

With your difficulties HOW do you work out a cramp?  You have my great sympathy. 

That is why I was up at 5:30.  I couldn't work it out.

I have found wrapping the cramp in a hot/extremely warm wet towel helps.  Oddly a heating pad doesn't help much.

I have decided that this December - now that it is December - that my mission will be doing errands for my working friends.....I have let it be known that if anything needs to be picked up or purchased or driven to, I would be glad to do it.....just make sure it's on my schedule in a timely manner.....although I do expect a couple of emergency runs.....

I am glad to hear this -  do you deliver to Long Island?  I need some stuff from the grocers

DR Jane I finished that book by Maggie Stiefvater that you were asking me about (book 3).  Don't read my review though cause it has spoilers from book two, which I dot' think you have read.

Thanks.  Does the series end with book 3?  If so do you suggest I finish reading them?

DR Ginny I hope you can take the leftovers to your mother tomorrow.

Time will tell, DR Jane, because freezing rain is predicted from 4am to 1pm.  I'm supposed to go to Dayton for lunch with the grantwriters, but I won't take any chances.  I told Mom today I probably wouldn't be out to see her until Wednesday.

I'm sure your mother would rather you stay home and be safe.

Of course.  I'm never all that serious in my post rantings.  It's just a "thing."  I would like us to outlast Facebook, that would be my fervent hope and prayer.

I suspect more will become disgruntled with Facebook and there malarky at some point.  There is currently one imploding actress on there, telling people if they don't like her negative screeds they should unfriend her and it's "her" wall and she can just post whatever the HELL she wants.  That's fine, but does her no favors publicly.  When she started, I told her I'd be happy to send her a copy of There's Mel, because I'd gone through exactly what she's going through right now and had finally realized that all that negativity I had just bred more and it was killing me and almost literally so.  I thought that story might help her.  I sent it to her - she has never acknowledged even getting it let alone reading it, which I doubt she has.  Like me, she is not in a place where she can be helped, either by others or, more importantly, herself.  My point is - thank the LORD I did not have anything like Facebook when I was going through that crap.
