We went to Chili's tonight, well, this afternoon for dinner. They were having a special two for $20 that included an appetizer, 2 entrees, and dessert! We had a gift cert from Christmas from Richard, so I thought, why not!!! Mom still does well going out to eat so off we went! I had two lessons earlier, was supposed to be three, but turned out to be 2. It was still a good day. Mom and I are now watching Walker, Texas Ranger, season 5 disc 4 episode 2. We love this show. After this we are going to go to bed, it's been a long day for her. I might read a bit in my room. I am reading a really good book right now. I have read it before, but it still good. Mom gave it to me for Christmas. About 2 days before Christmas she said she wanted to give me books for Christmas so we went to the used bookstore for them. I got 7 books for about $21. Mom saw a Curious George Christmas book and I asked her if she would like it, she said yes, so I got it for her. It was expensive! It cost about $14 but she likes those kind of books and doesn't have much time left so I got it for her. A small thing to bring her much pleasure. I also got her a puzzle book, the type where every page is a puzzle. There are about 8 pages in it. It was Christmas theme. Next year, I don't anticipate a very good Christmas for her, I don't think she will remember much by then so I am trying to pack as much as I can into this year for us, despite the shortage of funds. She likes simple things that don't cost a lot of money. We watch a lot of movies and TV together. She likes that a lot, even when she falls asleep during them briefly. She is wide awake tonight, I don't know why, but hey, I am not questioning it.
Pain is not so bad considering I am completely out of prescription pain pills. The refill will be ready Monday, but I don't know if I will have the money, if Grace has a lesson, then I will otherwise I will need to wait until Wednesday. I have Tylenol so it isn't like I have nothing for pain and if really necessary, Advil. I don't take Advil because of the blood thinners, but if I really need it, I will take it.
I hope your day is as good as mine was.
Hi Heather, I am sorry you are in pain..I hope you can get your meds..saying a prayer you can..I can't take advil or aspirin due to the beginnings of an ulcer..so tylenol it is when I don't have my ultracet, it takes the edge off, I would say. This wet weather we have had all week has wreaked havoc on my body..sometimes I want to just sit and cry but that does no good does it.
ReplyDeleteGlad you have some good books, wish I could get into reading again..I think its the depression. This should be an email! I will get an email out to you later today to check in.
hang in there
hugs!

Hope you feel better too. Depression is hard isn't it? I hope they can do something for you on that. I am not supposed to take advil because of coumiden, but I do sometimes anyways. I hope it stops raining for you soon! It can't rain forever can it?
