Day By Day 64

 Today the cleaners were here, and I went for a walk with my friend Marianne.  Then we had lunch, and I watched a romantic movie. Right after my best friend Sharon called with news that she has Covid and so does her son, daughter, and granddaughter.  She’s bummed out but has gotten the Paxlovid and will be fine, I’m sure.  But it is a bummer.  Also, her last aunt died at 106 in her sleep.  So now I’m writing the blog while Bill gets my prescriptions, then we will have dinner and watch a movie of some sort.  He likes to watch sci fi and I don’t, but we usually watch what he wants to watch, because I can never figure out what I want to watch in time.

Day-by-Day

  Well, I’ve decided to go back to a day-by-day blog, with whatever happens to me that day being my source of the blog.     Pretty simple, if not too clever.     I’ve done the blog about the right speech issues, and more recently the blog about how my past has changed after my strokes, so this new blog will be very mundane, about whatever occurs to me each day.     Today I did my exercises, walked with my husband, then we had lunch and I watched part of a movie, then finished my last blog, and now here I am, being a new fresh person with only the thoughts that occur to me right now.     I have been excited about reverting to something superficial, and that includes allowing the fear of not much to say be foremost if it must.     Today I wondered again how much I might need to show that I have a mind that is active and occasionally exceptional.     I am worried this week about what to do and not to do.     Do I vi...

Day By Day 17

  Today I had my one-month checkup after my Catheter Oblation.     Things are looking good.     I feel great and have no lingering side effects.     I hope to be able to stop the sotalol.     For 2 weeks I’ll do half a tab then hopefully discontinue it.     Let’s see how it goes! Today we had the cleaners here in the morning, then we took our walk after that was over.  I had lunch, and then rested until the conference call.   Now I don’t exactly know what to do about the rest of the day.  I guess I’ll try to call someone and talk.  Deb or Sharon, perhaps.

Day By Day 13

  Today was crazy, as the last few days have been. First our TV arrived at 8:00 am.     Then after breakfast, I did my meditation with Anam Thubten online, then the dharma talk, which was about equanimity.     It was a good one.     I also tried to eat a salad, two peanut butter sandwiches and a pear.     Then I rushed inside so we could be ready to follow Jessi, Scott and the boys to a pumpkin patch an hour away.     It was a great place, but very windy today with a lot of dust being kicked up.     We met some friends, and then did our best to keep track of the two grandsons, two other kids, and various adults.     Lewis and I had a great time listening to the music, and he really loves it.     We saw bees, piglets, bunnies, chickens, a burro and a cow.     We saw a frog and caterpillars and pumpkins galore.     I got very tired, from the wind, the dust and other things, so after we...
