Walker

Today is 09/23/10 & I am to call Hospice for a walker.

My balance is getting worse & I do not another nasty fall.

Parking lot ain't soft

Fell in the parking lot & lying there for (35) minutes because Night Mgr is an idiot. I banged up left knee, right foreman, & several bruises. She kept calling the Hospice # but the low battery light was on. The Mgr has another cordless phone + a cell phone. Guess Mgr didn't know. The Hospice operator wasted to know who keep hanging up.

Finally another resident got her phone & called in to Hospice. I am sure if I had a heart attack, I would be dead.

The Night Mgr is (85) years old, hard of hearing. Unless she is in her living room, you have to keep banging on door & ringing her door bell.

She panicked when anything goes wrong. Going to talk Memphis Supervisor next time from Memphis.

Still here

Well, it is Sept 1, 2010 & I m still here.

Our country is a mess & we are heading for a 2nd recession.

Trip-08/10/2010

Marilyn drove me to Cousin Jack's condo to return the 5-n-1 music player.
It helps when I can get out for a while.

Marilyn is a very nice, classy lady who refuses to take any money for her help.
Jerrine needs a lot of help on her computer, at least (3) hours.
Her printer wouldn't print, took me (2) minutes to figure why--needs color cartridge.

Hot

Weather in Humboldt, TN is like the rest of Midsouth, way too hot.
Maybe there is something to this Global Warming.

Still here 08/04/2010

Woke up Sunday 1:30 a.m. with a sore throat. Usually I take a Sucrets then (2) hours later take another & that takes of it.

Lo & behold the Sucrets were outdated by (2) years but they still worked Bought newer ones.

117 heat index for (2) days.

Nurse gives me a mini-exam every week, so far so good.
