She fit the mask tightly to her face, and then set it to escalate the air flow steadily.
As she closed her eyes, she wondered how many of the dead would come tonight, taking her to places of yesteryear and treating her to jokes, ( Read more... ) -
Tomorrow's Monday
Tomorrow's Monday and the DPW is going to ripping out plants and trees and shrubs from around the library then, thereby shutting the parking lot. Monday, they will probably be gone by 5, but Tuesday should be a real picnic, with Storytime.... The landscaping will be redone (not sure when, since the library probably has a lot of building damage ( Read more... ) -
Elysha
Got her out of here, but haven’t heard from her yet. I hope she’s gotten settled in and is asleep now. It’s 5 hours later where she is and it’s time for me to go to bed. So, I’ll keep everybody posted, one way or the other, even if I have to resort to telepathy….night, all.

Happy Labor Day
Listening to smooth Jazz - I love Dave Brubeck and classic jazz in general...I've found a jazz station online that I can really love. It's on with WCBS - oldies in NYC.

Bad news….
Elysha’s visa application was refused and the British Consulate sent her passport and all her paperwork for her visa, as well as the reasons they refused to grant her one, to NORTH CAROLINA!!!! WTF were they thinking? They sent her an e-mail with a UPS tracking number. When I tracked it, since it hadn’t arrived a week after they said it would, it ( Read more... ) -
Facebook is claiming too much time….
I’m on Facebook now more than I blog - guess you noticed that. Bee depressed the past few weeks. I hate July and I’m not real fond of summer this year either. It’s been cool and rainy here for too long. Today it was nice and sunny and I planted some pumpkin seeds that I had in a bag that said “PLANT IN MAY”. Well so much for that… I also got my ( Read more... ) -
INSURANCE - we need the government to take a hand….
My insurance changed as of July 1st and my DME (Durable Medical Equipment -provider of my CPAP machine, masks, etc.) is no longer covered. Of course, my titration study was done on June 29 and they didn't put the order through for a new mask and reset of the CPAP machine until, you guessed it, after July 1. So I have to get my old DME to take back ( Read more... ) -
I hate July
The year my ex left me, July was when he told me he was leaving. I took handfuls of acetaminophen (generic Tylenol), left a note, the whole works. He was still at home then, so he saw the note, took me to the emergency room, where they gave me stuff that made me throw up for hours and checked me in to a Psych hospital. Spent 3 weeks there and got ( Read more... ) -
Confused…
I just sat in on part of a Hebrew lesson online through WebEx. It was a series of questions you might use as a tourist in Israel. I tell you, I am very confused. I’m embarrassed to admit that I cannot think in two languages. I suspect I should’ve learned another language when I was younger… Sigh….Le’an means “Where to?” A little taxi driver asks it ( Read more... )
