We are now in the process of waiting for people to call us to schedule his physical therapy, speech therapy for his swallowing problems, and the visiting nurses.

Since the computer disaster I have not been able to check on all the appointments I had in there. So far, it has fucked up my dentist and cardiologist appointments.

I haven’t had time to run my computer over to the repair people.

Therefore, I once again have cursed the (I hope his dick falls off) damned hacker.

I have three wishes and they are:

1. To have my house cleaned and painted from basement to attic.
2.  To have the front porch repaired
3.  To have my yard landscaped/hardscaped so the erosion stops and it is easy for me to take care of year round.

Three things I would wish for but know they are impossible to fulfill:

1. A cure for The Curmudgeon’s MS
2. To live on a beach for the remainder of my life
3. To never have to worry about money again

With a throat on fire, ears all wonky, and a headache that wouldn’t quit, I told The Curmudgeon that I was off to our doctor’s emergency and walk in clinic. He knows when I say that, I am SICK.

I hate going to the doctor’s.

Worse thing is, I have another appointment on Thursday.

Sigh…more pills to take.

Now I’m going to follow doctor’s orders and get some rest.

Come on Momma. I willz snugglez wiff you and make youze awl beddor.

I’m already sick of the election and it isn’t even 2016 yet. If the idiot in the toupee makes it to the primary I think I’ll seriously look into becoming an ex pat.

I hate mud-slinging and I can’t abide idiots. This is a record year election for all that already.

Constant injuries to my back from lifting and moving The Curmudgeon around has me grateful that I have my tens machine.

On days like yesterday, when I wake up in so much pain I don’t want to crawl out of bed, it does give me some much-needed relief.

I do not want to take pain killers or have surgery so this is how I deal with it.

Even though The Curmudgeon had a rough start to his day, I HAD to get out.

G and I dropped off the old router at the UPS store. The guy behind the counter was a hoot.

Then we picked up my Sit-N-Cycle at Bed, Bath, and beyond. On sale fifty dollars off and G had a coupon for an additional twenty percent off. I saved eighty bucks!

Time to go out for lunch after that and Longhorn Steakhouse waved us in. We shared a mussels appetizer and we both had a lovely prime rib sandwich and fries, yummy!

After that, we needed some exercise, so we went walking around the nearby mall. G found a wallet for a good price.

It felt so good to get out of the house after two weeks of being shut in with him.

I will have to get out once more this week. We need some groceries. Another lunch out sounds good too. I wonder who would like to go shopping with me, lunch is my treat.

Did someone sayz lunch?

At least we had sun yesterday.

Much better than more rain.

If only energy had come along with it.

I might have accomplished something.

As it was, I cooked dinner and did the dishes.

Wow. So much energy. Not.

For a couple of days now we’ve had our heat turned on and I’ve had to wear a hoodie to take the dogs out.

I am not ready to face another winter.

The house is not ready for another winter.

Brrrr.

Where’s my beach?

Another day where I felt as tired when I woke as when I went to bed. This has gone on for a solid two weeks.

No amount of coffee consumed upon rising has brought me to full alert status.

I need to go grocery shopping but have been getting up too late in the day to go where I don’t have to contend with crowds and idiots. Now I’ll wait until after the weekend because I never shop on the weekend where all the people are in all the stores.

I think I’ll need some of that five-hour energy drink stuff.

So the Verizon guy arrived two hours early.

And you know what that means.

Yes, I was in bed.

The Curmudgeon let him in, he put the new back-up battery in and left.

Without taking the old router.

So now, (when I have a spare moment) in addition to having to take the paper-weight computer in for repair because of the damned hacker,  I have to go to a UPS store and mail out the damned router that the S.O.B. could have taken with him or we’ll be charged for it.

I still haven’t been able to go grocery shopping or anywhere else with all the other (The Curmudgeon’s doctor appointments, lab work, tests, etc.) running around I’ve had to do.

Ah, the frustrations in dealing with technology and the superior attitude of Techs who are young enough to be my grandchild.

I had to teach myself everything I know about computers today, I didn’t learn it from elementary school on.

I wasn’t allowed to touch a computer in school since I wasn’t a math genius. Computers then were rudimentary.

I bought my first computer when they became cheap enough for me to afford one and taught myself how to use it. I had no classes or teachers to walk me through it. Instead, I worked through every tutorial I could find, sometimes staying at it all night.

Now, if I can stay calm enough, have no big frustrations doing it, then I can pretty much figure everything out on my own.

That said, if I come to you asking for help, remember that I have other insurmountable obstacles in my life and this irritant is a fire ant on the toe of my zen. Don’t smirk, don’t judge, just do your effing job.
