One more step forward...

 Yesterday we moved my things from the main floor back downstairs to the master bedroom that I rent from my friend's parents. It's nice to be sitting up in a couch instead of the recliner. A lot more cushy and more comfortable. Also, now I can watch whatever I want on all the streaming services we have downstairs and not just on an iPad with earbuds on. 

The best part, I get to be with my furbabies again. Evie settled right back, snuggling with me, rubbing her head against my phone. Mal just gave me a look of, "oh it's you again" and went about her business. Hans, well he's Hans. Came over to say hello and went back to doing whatever he was doing.

It's nice also being a lot closer to the bathroom. The downside is we have mini fridge, so the freezer doesn't hold as many ice packs and we only have a few down here. At least I don't need the ice packs as much as I did last week. 

Slept so much better on the couch than I did in the recliner. It may take some adjusting to figure out the best position of the pillows. At least the windows are behind me, instead of in front of me. I was waking up when the sun came up since the light was directly hitting me.

Yesterday morning was a little rough. I had hoped to shower again, but my injury was hurting too much. The hematoma was hurting for the first time in a few days. At least that's what I think the burning chest pain was. It's the same spot each time, usually when I overexert myself.

Sometimes the dental implant screws hurt more than my injury. Sometimes they both hurt. At least I can recover from them both at the same time.

Maybe now I won't feel so bad

I figure I'll get one or two mean/rude customers a week. Yesterday I got two in one day. Fortunately, I only had one today and it wasn't till the end of my shift. Well, I got home and I saw I had an e-mail from Groupon advertising their special for Dodger tickets for the two day games on Wednesdays during the next homestand. I thought about it. Last time I checked it out, it came up to 13.90 just for my ticket. I coughed up the $14 for the Saturday game anyway at the Stadium. If I go to the stadium to my tickets, I can get top deck seats for $12 instead of paying $14 for the reserve ticket. The Groupon says it's $7 but there's about an additional $7 in fees you still have to pay. Plus, if I go when the team is on the road, I get to see my favorite ticket seller. While on Groupon, I noticed an advertisement for a competitor's deal. I checked out the competitor and looked at their FAQ, prices, and "reviews". Then I went on Yelp and really looked at their ...

Talk about a Manic Monday

Long long day today. Where do I begin? First off, I had to report for Jury Duty today. As I wrote earlier. They let us go for lunch around 12. I went down to the Los Angeles Mall because there was a Carl's Jr in their food court. Line was too long by the time I got there. I even skipped taking the elevator down to the ground floor by taking the stairs instead. No wonder my calves were hurting! They still do a little. Add the new shoes that aren't the best for walking shoes plus lugging my laptop bag around... I ended up getting spaghetti that came with salad and a slice of wheat bread. Too bad I didn't walk around the food court more. I would've found the Sbarro and gotten that instead of the random little cafe type place I ended up at. I should found Ruth and asked her where she was going to lunch. Turns out, one of the ladies from church was in the same jury pool I was. She caught me during the break but when they dismissed us for lunch, she left before I could find h...

At First Sight

“ I needed to be part of a story I know would end happily. ” Allie Parker, pg. 83 “ Ask me Craig! Ask me if I’m doing anything New Year’s Eve! I know it’s stupid and old-fashioned, but I’m one of those girls who like to be asked out by a guy. ” Julia Parker, pg 184 So, I just finished reading “At First Sight” for the umpteenth time. Last time I think I threw it against the wall. Don’t get me wrong. I love the story. I love Allie and Ben and Tim and Julia and Craig. I hate to be all “woe is me” in this entry… but man … that book sure brought on an onslaught of feelings. Mostly the kind where I feel hopeless. Of course I have been feeling hopeless for awhile now. It’s something that keeps coming back. It hasn’t gone away and I don’t know if it ever will. See… times like these I need another Parker figure in my life. That’s all I really need… really. Just an assurance that one day I will find that special someone someday. Partly, I can agree/relate with Allie. Maybe that’s why I r...
