Tell Us About Your Day

Where are you going to put it Cherry?

We didn't hand out candy on Halloween and gave no indication that we were. The doorbell rang a couple of times that night, but we didn't answer it. I remember being in the living room and hearing something on the opposite end of the house. I thought, "They wouldn't be egging the house, would they?!" I didn't hear anything else, and I chalked it up to my husband having messed with something in the office, also at the other end of the house.  I didn't think any more of it.

Yesterday afternoon, I came home and saw a strange shadow behind the Silhouette blind. It didn't look like it would be a large bird dropping, and it would have been a really large bug or spider. I opened the blind to find a pierced screen, a hole in the outer pane, and a BB lying at the bottom of the frame between the two panes.

So, I spent the day window shopping...literally. Work was slow, so I was able to do some research. Unfortunately, the local manufacturer of the windows I had installed in '94/'95 is no longer in business. While trying to contact hubby, who now works from home, I discovered our landline is out! So, we have a service call in for that as well.

Hubby and I decided to "divide and conquer." He went to one facility, and I left work early to visit another across town. I got there an hour before closing, but the shop was locked up tight with nobody around. GRRRRRR! Hubby didn't fare any better. He told me that the company he visited is a reseller, not a manufacturer. We might as well just go to Home Depot or Lowes to replace the window.

For now, since it's double-paned it will be fine. We have a few other calls we can make before we resort to the home improvement/big box stores.

It didn't take you ,long at all.

We may or may not go out to get donuts this afternoon. We'll see if we feel up to it later. We were up late with our doggy.. she was having a bad night.

It is Sunday today. I have drunk my caffetterie coffee, had my daily shower and put on a load of laundry. I am also airing out my apartment.

I am now browsing the Internet and posting on here!

A typical Sunday - Shopping, lunch and then relax.

To find a nail and hammer, then tap it into the wall?   

LOL Waste pipes is not really plumbing.... 

My doctor of 28 years and his partner sold their busy practice a year ago, and now they're renting space downstairs from their old practice (they owned the building as well). They downsized from 2300+ patients, each, to just 400...now a concierge practice.

I knew he had some medical issues, as he had mentioned having abdominal surgery a couple of years ago and losing weight because of it. Earlier this year, his patients were notified that he would be gone for a few months and that his partner (I've seen him before) would be taking care of us until his return. I was told he would be undergoing some sort of treatment which would require a lengthy hospital stay and recovery period.

Today, I went in for my usual monthly INR, and I noticed his business cards were missing from the reception desk. When I inquired about his health (as I usually did), the receptionist told me that he unexpectedly passed away on Tuesday of last week.

Another beach day for me and we will be going to a New England style seafood restaurant for dinner. I am looking forward to that.

Sorry to hear, and finding a good doctor can be so difficult..

Sad.. good doctors are hard to find.
I know I mourned the death of my vet more than I mourned the deaths of people much closer to me.

He was a good friend and trusted person those two things are even more difficult to find.

I spent the day in clinic.


Right! Let the weekend begin.

What happened to our secret santa plan?
