Owls and other small things


Only three people walk the main center aisle of this home.  The aides insist this is because of the virus.  They act angry when I want to walk.  Gosh.  If I went back to the other nursing home, I bet I couldn’t walk there either.

So what am I doing.  Watching Animal Planet...owls in one episode today, typing here, getting dressed, eating their food stuffs…the deserts and soups are good, and reading.  I am so grateful that I can read again.  I have a box full of Elvis Cole’s adventures and the historical volume “Hidden Places.”  Fascinating stuff.  I know I have read them before, but that last volume I read scared me to death.  Then there is “ Free,, free, free…”  We already have our rebates and deposited them.  George wants me to stand up and sit down every five minutes.  It’s a struggle as I am wider than my chairs and so get stuck.

And going to a AA meeting using ZOOM.  I used to run a program called  MIRC…ZOOM is smoother.  I don’t care that everyone knows I am in the Program, G cares.  He has bushels  of friends who don’t know him personally, but he worries.  Me…I have recorded in detail my many drunks in my older journals.  Everybody already knows my sins.

  1. Can they get you an arm-less chair Mage? Surely there must be one there. I just picked up on Zoom. Hugs to you.

  2. George has a good idea but you need a different chair for sure. Take care Mage.

  3. Madge, it's better and better every day to hear you.
    You know, when I had the stupid red bus accident, they kept me in a coma for 30 days to drain the tbi and whatever else. When I woke up, that was all I could do. I had to work like a dog to be strong enough to sit, to stand, to walk. I was another whole month before I was passable, and then just barely. So, I'll agree with George and the others. Get you a decent chair. One of the wide ones from the lobby! Just kidding. They can go down the basement or in the attic and find you one. Then stand up and sit down a lot. Please. Love from Joanne

  5. Zoom is an amazing thing. All the in-person meetings and activities Hubby and I attend have transitioned to online.

  6. I just read another blog that the boomer guy hit in the comments. Anonymous coward, of course.

    Does MIRC still exist? I haven't used it for a very long time, and I never used it much.

    I am glad you are not ashamed of your truth.

  7. Haven't tried Zoom yet but hear it is amazing. It is a wonderful tool during these times. What a great way to continue with the AA meetings. I wondered how people were managing that. You keep sounding better with each post. Stay safe and well.

  8. You sound so much better. So glad to read you. Keep doing the up and downs...to hell with the chair issue. JUST DO IT!! Also, can you walk around you bed? Count how many times and than add to more rounds until your numbers are really up there. MOvement is sooooo important. Can they get you small hand weights?? God I would drive you nuts if I was there.

  11. We all love you dearly--and your past is just that, your past. It has made you what you are and you're a wonderful person and I am so very grateful to have you in my life. Now, get up and then sit back down again! LOL I have been making face masks but don't know that they'll be used by anyone. But it gets me up out of the chair every 5 min. to iron a strip of cloth or go to the bathroom or get something to drink. Movement is the order of the day! Love you!
