My Small Corner

Better

I am just now starting to get over the flu that I came down with over a week ago.  It feels like I've been sleepwalking through things the last few days, and that was after literally sleeping through a couple of days.

I've found a new favorite reality show:  Parking Wars.  There was a marathon on for two of the days I was on the couch and I found it quite addictive.

Now I have to get back to my life and pick up where I left off.  I think it's been 16 years since the last time I came down with the flu and I ended up with pneumonia with it then and a sinus infection.  It seems I've come through it better than that this time around.

Flu Shot

It it extremely annoying to have gotten the flu shot and yet ended up with the flu anyway.

Here Today Gone Tomorrow

On the way home from our Easter festivities, I was looking out the window at a row of shops.  The first one I barely looked at.  It was a bar that would be best shut down.  Not only have I picked up people in it, but more often I pick up those who stumble out into the parking lot across the street. 

Round 3

I had a routine appt with a specialist that I go to every year.  It's been so mundane for so many years now that I don't even think about a possible problem.  But today was a little different.  After 16 years, I have skin cancer again.  The good news is between knowing what to look for and getting a check every year, we caught it early and small. 

DARE

Right now Eldest Child is in his school auditorium while officers are running a DARE program.  I know that because one of the officers called on the radio for the omnipotent dispatcher to say hello.  OD got on the radio and on behalf of the police department said hello to the 5th grade class.

Into Each Live...Round 2

So 3 posts ago I wrote about a really bad day.  Turns out it was the start of a very bad week.  Tuesday wasn't bad  just hectic.  Then came Wednesday.

Psychic Fair

We have a magick shop in town.  Don't confuse that with a magic shop as we have one of those as well.  I got an announcement on facebook that because of the (early) arrival of spring, they are having a spur-of-the moment psychic fair.  All I could think of to comment was "you mean you didn't see spring coming but you want me to trust you to read my future?".  Back away from the facebook.

Into Each Life...

What a crappy day.  One of the boys, who knows soda makes him sick, snuck several glasses yesterday and spent the night awake and tossing cookies (soda).  So I woke up tired.  The plan was to go to the gym but between not enough sleep and a child home from school, that plan was scrapped.

Glove Up

I stepped out of the rig on a call and the cop looked at my gloved hands and said:  "Good, you're set already."

Walking Away

There are days when I can understand how people can walk away from a church and not go back and yesterday was one of them.
