Today’s weight is 144.6. I am skeptically surprised. I thought for sure it would be more. After my physical and my cholesterol being high, I did cut down and stopped with the peanut butter and not eating past 7 pm. Then Halloween came. I was not a pig. I had some tootsie rolls, little mini […]
The year is 2023. Who would have ever predicted that The Beatles and The Rolling Stones would both be on Billboard’s Top Hits List! Again, at the same, both bands, as always deserving This week a new single was released by The Beatles. A song, “Now and Then,” recorded by John Lennon had been given […]
This is my favorite time of year, that’s why I got married in October. I love the cooler temperatures, I’m able to work outside for hours and I am always in awe of the beautiful landscape as the seasons change. It is hard to describe the joy that I get seeing the beautiful colors of […]
Thursday evening Pete and I went and got our updated COVID booster. We both have always gotten the Moderna vaccine. I thought nothing of it, I previously had no side effects. I felt fine the rest of the evening. I woke up on Friday feeling sore, tired and achy, with flulike symptoms. I attributed this […]
As you can see from my previous posts, I’ve been going to my yearly checkups; physical, blood work, dentist, eye doctor. My latest was my yearly mammogram.

He is so thorough with his research, with assistance from historians, and countless others, and he is a master […]
It is now Monday morning and I have gone three whole nights with no pain. On Friday the 13, (last post) we went food shopping at Kroger and I bought XS Acetaminophen 500 mg., (generic XS Tylenol), and got talked into buying Anbesol, gum number. This too, I bought generic. Anyhow. I took two of […]
Last night I woke up 3 times in severe throbbing pain. My teeth again. This pain is so intense that I cry, (I am not a cryer). One move of my head the wrong way and it starts. Yesterday the pain started at 2 in the afternoon. I couldn’t eat, afraid to open my mouth. […]
Since my physical, 2 weeks ago, I have been trying to schedule my yearly mammogram. Easy, right? Let me tell you. I called right away, (Bon Secours), and after 15 minutes was connected. Person on phone took all of my information including medical coverage ID numbers and all. I was on hold while she looked […]
