AJ At The Beauty Parlor


AJ At The Beauty Parlor

Today I was supposed to go to the home of the elderly and work on his bathroom, cleaning it. I don’t know whether it was because I have been on the go so much with AJ’s appointments and errands, or my eye infection or the heat we have not had for months, but I am tired.

I got home from taking AJ to get his free grooming and I made sure he ate and went potty then I put him in his cage. I got…

I Will Win. Not Immediately, But Definitely


great inspirations!

A Mixed Bag

When I saw this title on a new page I found on Facebook through Terry Shepherd, it struck me like a rock. We all look at things and say “I can’t do it” or “It’s not possible” or “It will never work”, and it’s true, some things will not work. You can’t breathe in space without aid. You can’t stand underwater with no oxygen for 24 hours. But you can get through hell. There is so much you CAN do. So much that you can win with. If you look back through your life at things you won through with, you will see that it is possible to succeed where it seems success is nowhere in sight. If you don’t give up, if you don’t quit, you will get there. As it says, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but you will get there.

Thank you to the following for…

Am I Losing My Marbles?


I wore a lighthearted post a few minutes ago. Now I will be a little more serious. I don’t know what is happening to me. I am not terribly scared over it; but I am becoming alarmed.

Dropping things constantly. Items just fall away from my fingers. Forgetting things and being anxious or confused. Today, for example.

I had to take AJ to the beauty salon at 11 am to drop him off. From there I had to get a baby shower gift for my daughter-n-law. We are going to be having another addition to the family in about a  month. A big, baby girl, bundle of joy.

I also had to mail my book, Dahlia to four bloggers that had requested it. I also mailed my daughter’s birthday gift out. Her birthday is the 15th and I doubt she will be up here for that.

After that I had to go to the bank, then went to meet a  lady to pick-up an item I wanted. Finally, I stopped by Taco Bell and grabbed some lunch, then off to pick-up AJ.

Not really a terrible list of things. All in general area of driving. While at the bank I forgot to place the disability tag on my mirror. When I came out of the bank ten minutes later there was a yellow paper on my window.

Looking at it I was surprised. I had been ticketed $50.00 for parking in a handicapped area with no tag. I almost broke down in tears. I had never received a ticket in my life. I got in the car and cursed myself for forgetting to place the tag in view.

I didn’t know what to do. Fifty dollar is a lot of money that I didn’t really have to spend. I drove down to the police station and went through the double doors. A nice looking lady was sitting behind the glass shield.

I started to explain my temporary sanity I seem to have anymore and then I broke down into tears. I explained about my brother passing away recently, and then she offered me some tissue and said she would ask the officer if these charges could be dropped.

She said someone would call me. Knowing I have heard those words before I didn’t think too much about it. I concentrated more on  how I was going to get that money. While picking out the baby shower gift my cell phone rang.

It was the officer. He explained he had been told my circumstances and waived the charge and dropped the ticket. I told him thank-you for being so understanding and then hung up.

I thanked God for saving me, but I am concerned on why I seem such a ditz anymore. People tell me things and then later will bring it up and I have no idea what they are talking about.

They try to rattle my brain by reminding me of when and where they told me, but I don’t remember. The dropping of things, and constant marbles in my head are making me begin to wonder if I am getting Parkinson’s Disease like my father, his mother, and her sister had.

I hope not, I pray I don’t, for I live alone and I would not be able to do that forever. I am almost too afraid to pray about it; for fear Satan will get a hold of it and toy with me.

AJ At The Beauty Parlor


Today I was supposed to go to the home of the elderly and work on his bathroom, cleaning it. I don’t know whether it was because I have been on the go so much with AJ’s appointments and errands, or my eye infection or the heat we have not had for months, but I am tired.

I got home from taking AJ to get his free grooming and I made sure he ate and went potty then I put him in his cage. I got online for about twenty minutes and my eyes were burning.

I laid down at three and I never woke up until six pm. I feel about the same as I did before I laid down; but I usually feel more tired at first if I take a day-time nap. Anyways AJ ate and I ate the last of the left-overs.

I can tell you I am about tired of left-over food. I have done it ever since Al could no longer eat food. What I wouldn’t do for a home-cooked meal fixed by someone other than myself.

Well here is a couple of photos I took of AJ today.

A Day With AJ and the Doc


A Day With AJ and the Doc

Today I had to go to the doctor unexpectedly. I have had this same infection times four now. I was told by my eye doctor that as I age the tear ducts in my eyes grow thicker. Along with my allergies in the Spring, I get an infection.

I was around the fire pit last Saturday evening and got too much smoke in my eyes. I washed my eyes with Baby Shampoo as instructed by the doctor, which I do daily…
