It's kind of hard to remember to write the date 2009. Today is sunny and breezy enough to drift the snow some more. Joe went to coffee again and has gotten the new inch or so of snow shoveled off the back deck. Scott came and cleared the driveway - didn't even know he had been here. The auto garage door isn't working very well. It doesn't want to close, as if the laser sensor thinks something is in the way. I hope it doesn't break down and emprision the vehicles.
Been trying for a while to get an appointment for a pedicure from the senior center person who does it for such a reasonable a price, but she hasn't been working over the holidays. Thinking of going into surgery with such long toenails finally prompted me to go ahead and do it myself, as I always have. Toenails were launched to every corner of the bedroom and Raven's eyes were wide with wonder at the flying missiles. While I tried to call several of the friends, I sat on the shower stool and soaked my feet in a hot bath. Yesterday I had used the sandpaper file on the calluses and the soaking got the rest of the job done. I even got polish on. Slathered the feet in heavy cream and put socks on. Did my hands too. Much much better. Glad it's done.
I've been to the clinic to get the picc line flushed and asked Barb to give me the stomach shot since I was there. I'll do it myself again tonight and both the flushing and shots tomorrow. The roads were pretty icy after all the thawing yesterday then refreezing.
So that's about the extent of all the excitement here. I'll try to do some artwork, I have a pastel close to finished, and get my easel set up for oil painting today.
