This is Allison in the Chapel of Love! She is standing in the spot where she will be married . i love it!
Yay tomorrow is planned with the help of Erica amy's and my helper. We're picking Amy up for lunch and any necessary errands and then returning to amy's house in time for SPA DAY!! Amy asked me to stay for some of it so I am bringing along the Queen Helene Beauty Mask and some whitehead removing strips to add to the fun. Just called Walgreens and they do have more of the mask so I'll pick up another tube. I offered to take Amy to see the movie called Valentine's Day but she wants to spend the time talking and I know why. She needs to get things off her chest and just talk. I know she can't do that with the other clients in the house but I also know that most of the staff do converse with her. This week she told me that one of the women overseeing the house told her to only tell me happy stories when she calls. Right. And they don't like her relating things about what goes on at the house. One of the staff last week told her to try to put her own gloves on and then said "I don't want to be your mother". Does she understand her JOB is working with disabled people and its not up to her to make judgments about things like laziness. i tried like heck to find mittens this season and i was too picky about what they looked like and ended up with nothing. a bird in the hand......................
woke up this morning freezing--the bed, the air everything was cold. i listened for the heat to come on and when it didn't I got up and saw that the temp in the house was at 60 but the thermostat was set to 70. what's that about??? turned it up after i let the dogs out and went back to bed and slept way too late. I had steel cut oats for lunch and a double portion since i'd skipped breakfast. I am very aware of arteries, blood pressure, and cholesterol these days. there is so much one can do to add to one's health so i'm doing it. I have the most wonderful family and i want to be around for a spell. who knows, i might even find "love" although that is the last thing on my mind. Anything is possible as i start looking and feeling good not to forget walking , look out.
i need to be well for so many reasons. i hope i can work and earn money without losing my ssi. i don't know about that one, tho. i would like to tutor maybe and make cash out of pocket--someone else's pocket. maybe teach guitar. plus most importantly, i need to be up and able to be involved in amy's life in many ways more than ever. plus i have al and annie living hours from me. can you say ROAD TRIP!!??
my kitty is doing well now that he is on insulin and i'm not so worried anymore about the cost because it looks like that vial of insulin is going to last a long time. immediately after beginning his meds he drinks much less water. he is due soon for a blood test to check out his levels.
been riding my stationery bike twice a day --yesterday for a half hour and then again for 15 minutes. also walking around with the walker but that is real work. it winds me and hurts for a good part of the time. gotta be able to get out of my wheelchair and then i can travel in my new little car. yay. happy valentines day to ME!
