just what i needed.

Iffy- ya gotta teach yiddle how to really get on my case

Back when we pulled a trailer for business I would drive the highways so DH could rest and nap. I never attempted to back it up, that was definitely his job! But he is very good at it. Now that we have downsized and everything fits into a big cargo van, we still share driving duties.

I will try to video Geordi in the ring with his breeder. Don't know if I will have someone to video if I get to take him in, but we shall see.

We haven't seen him in so long. He's probably all grown up & ready to go pro!

i achieved a new personal record the other night...

according to the fire dept (911 responders) my blood sugar was 21. Yay!!! Personal record!!!

they stuck in an iv, fed me 2 of yiddle's glucose tablets (which were in another room) and then made me a sammitch. after that, i got up and danced a little jig, and they decided i didn't need to go to a hospital.

i *think* i forgot i already took my meds and took them again, which, apparently is a bad thing for a diabetic. might have also forgotten to eat. it's kinda fuzzy

i remember waking up in my computer chair and the entire left side of my body was totally useless. i thought i'd had a stroke. my phone was handy, but my hands didn't work so i couldn't dial 911. somehow, i managed to dial my daughter, who called me back. sensing my inability to speak clearly, she called 911. smart girl. when the fire dept showed up, they asked if i could unlock the front door. i said "sure" since my computer desk is near the front door, and then promptly fell on the floor, where i stayed immobile til they finally found me.

much like my last incident, the fire dept was highly impressed that i could actually respond to questions when my blood sugar was that low. i should soon be in their HOF...

the highlight was when one of the firemen asked if i needed something to drink with the sammitch. all i have in the fridge are diet teas. apparently, he's a rookie, so all the other guys just gave him crap til they all left. "You gave him a diet drink, rook???"


fun times. fun times...

You need to write it down when you take your meds & eat. If it's not written down you didn't do it. I set alarms on my Mom's phone to remind her when it's time for meds. No need to remind her to eat.

 

[Kenna]

Lucky- yes

OK- prolly never

Every time so far!

Say, did anybody catch the History channel show, D.B. Cooper, Case Solved? ? We did and the guys who were trying to track down THE guy had some very compelling circumstantial evidence. It was a good show and I won't give away the ending in case some would like to catch it in re-run.

I missed it! And missed recording it too!

time is rather meaningless to me

being retired, i have no reason to be awake at any particular time.

sometimes, i sleep all day. other times at night.

seems pretty random to me

ETA: dammit, i missed your point. i suck

 

[Kenna]

VV is so correct, longer trailers handle better... <What, honey? Oh, just a lil' discussion 'bout my years as a shortstop><Yes dear, supper comin' right up...>

So true! I had a Suburban & could back the thing into a parking space with ease using only the mirrors. I backed it into a space once that left under 2" on either side, just to prove to my sisters that I could. My Tahoe is shorter & not nearly as easy to back in.

in college, i took every french class offered. i could have minored in it, but that degree cost extra and i was perennially broke

i used to think in french. it took several years after college to stop doing that

it was rather strange



i don't recommend it

Unless you're in France.

And have you taken your meds this evening?

 

[Kenna]

Hopefully it's sooner....later may be too late....

Let's take up a collection & hire someone there to shake some sense, (or kick his hinny), into him, Yiddle. And yes, that sentence is phrased correctly.

if only i could have afforded france when i was fluent

and i've been trying to take my meds in daylight hours, so, hopefully, yes

i may end up getting a roommate


free rent in exchange for occasionally waking me up and saving some 911 calls...

I still haven't watched Roots. I loved the original & am just afraid this version will dissappoint. Sometimes "too much" just ruins it.

French...

You got it! [emoji23]

Hmm....not sure if you're implying that I think I know it all, or...that I can't learn anything new.....both interpretations are incorrect as applies to moi...

Just maybe some common sense is finally awakening....
