Maybe it'll be bigger than ours!

I don't know, the vacant lot where they want to put this Aldi isn't that big... it's been vacant for more than 10 years, well most of Cowboyville has been vacant for longer than that

That honestly doesn't sound like a bad thing. There are lots of times I wish our city was less populated, but it's mostly noise pollution that bothers me.

I slept on my side last night. That means my ribs are finally healed.

Yay! The rental-car-versus-deer incident is finally resolved to everyone’s satisfaction (except the deer’s, of course).

As I’ve just donated several pairs of shoes, I ordered a replacement pair. Granted, they’re as-square-as-the-box-they-come-in orthopedic shoes for my destroyed feet, but still…new shoes!

My eldest brother and his wife just dropped in as they were passing nearby on their way back from holiday. I took them to the pub for coffee and a chat... it really cheered me up.

Yep…I never realized how much I’d miss my oldest brother when he moved…even though we didn’t see each other much when he lived in the area.

I always make a point to visit with him when he comes down to look in on our parents, and we always have a great time.

Taking part of the day off tomorrow and going to the Oriental supermarket and restaurant that serves gluten free dim sum.
Might not sound like much but it (hopefully) signals the end of a very manic time here so I’m very happy with that

I never thought about the day I'd be buying orthopedic shoes but glad I did!

After two weeks helping my son job hunt and not a single bite (which was very depressing for him) yesterday he got three job offers in one day. He’s cock a hoop. Deservedly so

Everybody close woke up today!

When I was on the intensive care ward for a week back in January I was receiving one to one nursing care with each of my own nurses working a 12 hour shift. Along with their job of monitoring and filling in charts they also keep a personal diary of my care and everything that happened to me whilst I was there including of course the milestones I ticked off.

I got a letter today from the senior ward nurse telling me that the diary was ready for me to collect if I wanted it. I am going to drop into ICU on Monday to pick it up.

What a lovely thing to do for each patient.
