ONWARD! THREE THRU FIVE

ONWARD DAY 3!



Today is a different kind of day.  I had a doctor appointment at 8:45 this morning.  So, I was up at 6:00, had breakfast, took a shower, fed Penny, and headed for my doctor who is in Columbus, GA.  He is changed my blood pressure meds again since I am still having problems. Of course, I didn’t get out of his office until 10:30.  On the way home I stopped and filled the gas tank on the car.  I then made several phone calls when I arrived home.  By that time it was time to feed Penny (again) and eat my lunch.


Okay, so I ran late with my morning chores.  I didn’t do them until afternoon.  I did most of them.  I’m just running out of steam.  I need to rest and relax for a while.  Sorry to say this has not been a very good ONWARD day.  I have a really bad headache and took a really long nap on the couch.  Now it is suppertime.  Don’t really feel like eating, but I have meds to take so I need to eat something.



I’ve done my physical therapy.  That’s it for today.  Tomorrow will be better!



ONWARD! DAY 4



I was up bright and early today.  I finished all my morning chores including taking a short walk.  Next I headed to Phenix City.  Went to Walgreen’s to pick up my prescription.  While there I looked for support hose that Dr. Miller told me I should wear.  They did not have what I needed so I went to Walmart.  They informed me that they no longer sell them.  I ended up buying a set of Corelle.  They are just plain white.  After that I came home and had lunch.  Fed Penny.  Made a few phone calls. 


This afternoon and evening didn’t do much.  I did walk up to the mailbox several times.  I also took my trash up.  I considered that my physical therapy for the day.  I also started working on my notes for the Hennessy side of Jim’s family.  That would be his mother’s side.  Her dad was Hennessy and her mother was Ryan.  I haven’t found much on either one of them so far.



So much for ONWARD today.



ONWARD DAY 5



I was up bright and early again this morning.  After breakfast I went outside to do a little work.  I cleaned up the mess on my parking area.  Kevin had used the weedeater and the weeds were so bad that they were just clumps of dead weeds laying around.  I picked up a lot of it them hosed everything down.  Next I added water to my two birdbaths, and watered two of my new trees.  I really need to start doing yard work.  My yard is a disaster except where Kevin has cut the grass.


Finally finished my morning chores and did the first half of my physical therapy.  Also made a few phone calls.  Did a little research on the Hennessy family, but still no luck finding anything.



This afternoon was really hot.  I am putting the Hennessy family book aside for now.  I was getting rather frustrated.  Not sure what my next step will be with this one.  I am starting the Aker family tree now.  Hope that goes better.



I did part two of my physical therapy.  That’s the part that really wears me out, so I rested for a while.  Fixed a pizza in my new toaster over.  The oven works great and my pizza was really good. 



Didn’t do much this evening.  Finished a book I was reading, talked to Jana, watched some television, played with Penny, then called it a night.

Sounds like you're doing plenty to me! Just keep plugging away.

Isn't it frustrating when you can't find something in the stores. I take 1 Culturelle probiotic once a day. The type I take is Digestive Health. Meijer's had it on sale, after going to two different Meijer's (they don't even have a spot for it on their shelves), I gave up aggravated. Searched online, and got a much better deal ordering through Amazon.com!! Yay for me! Trying searching online for your support hose.
