Tiny Miracle

September 22nd, 2008

I arrived at the doctor’s office four minutes before my eleven o’clock appointment.  I filled out the sheet that one has to fill out before each visit and then sat down and had read only one page when the nurse called my name.  When I was shown into the exam room another nurse was already in [...]

Something New For My Car

September 21st, 2008

Monday when I was at the orthopedic doctor, I asked if he could give me a note to take to the Office of Motor Vehicles so that I could get a handicapped tag for the car.  He said sure and had the nurse fill out the form and then he signed and I left and drove [...]

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

September 15th, 2008

Today I had an appointment with the orthopedic doctor to start the series of shots that I am praying will help my arthritic knees.  I am not sure of the name of the shot but know that it is made from rooster comb.  The needle going in did not hurt but when the doctor started [...]

Home Again

August 10th, 2008

Thought I would write about my mission trip tonight but am still tired from the thousand mile bus trip home from South Dakota that was completed yesterday evening.  Going to bed early again tonight and hopefully will be caught up on my sleep by tomorrow morning.  Today was the start of our week long revival [...]

I Am Packed And Ready To Go

July 31st, 2008

Went to bed this morning at five and was awakened by the phone a little after noon. The phone call was from a friend in one of my groups and we are going to meet for dinner when the group stops in Springdale, Arkansas on the way home.  Still have not been able to get [...]

Finally The MP3 Player Works

July 30th, 2008

Got out of bed about one this afternoon and started right in to see if the MP3 player would work.  Called tech support for the second time, first time for today, and again got a guy that I could not understand.  Did what I think he told me to do and thanked him and hung [...]

I Am Now A Commissioner

July 29th, 2008

This evening I attended a class for election poll workers and my name is now on the list of commissioners to be called to work at the polls when there is an election.  The names are randomly chosen so I am not counting on being chosen but if I am it will mean two hundred [...]

Ants, Ants, And More Ants

July 28th, 2008

I was in a war all morning using my hands to kill a few hundred ants and a few of them fought back.  I have three or four bites but fortunately I grabbed the ants just as they started to bite so no itch so far.  For some reason ants have decided that the place [...]

Memories

July 27th, 2008

Yesterday when I was in Wal-Mart I bought something that really took me back to memories of junior high and high school trips.  At the time my mother was taking me to the dermatologist and of course in those days the doctors believed that chocolate caused acne.  So I had to give up chocolate and [...]

A Better Day

July 26th, 2008

After yesterday, my days had to get better.  This morning I was having trouble with three different computer programs but I kept plugging along and finally got them solved.  I also kept playing with the MP3 player until I finally figured it out also.  The problems with the computer also concerned the MP3 player.  For [...]
