Yesterday I didn't get up until 0810!  Nice little sleep in for me.  Jim got up around 0930.  We didn't have anyplace to be until 1300 for his PT session.  I did a load of laundry and ran the dishwasher.

After PT we came home, I had leftover ravioli for lunch and Jim took a nap.  I spent my time reading and playing games

Around 1800 Sonsearae and Chris picked us up for the wine dinner at Carrabbas.  It was nice having Chris with us.  The dinner was super as was the wine.  I think we all enjoyed the family time

Back home it didn't take us long to change and get comfortable. Jim watched YouTube and I got caught up on my game, did some reading and we were in bed shortly after 2200.

I was up this morning shortly after 0700.  Coffee and grits for breakfast. I was pleasantly surprised the glucose was 120! That's low for me. I test every other day and I wasn't sure what to expect after that rich, delicious dinner last night.

Lazy day for us.  I did a little cleaning and we both had naps.  Leftover ravioli for me and Jim had a sandwich of some sort for lunch.  For dinner I had some fettuccini leftover from last night and Jim had teriyaki chicken and fried rice another leftover from lunch on Monday.  

It's 87 degrees outside and it's almost 2100.  The AC hasn't been on all day but we'll run it overnight

I think I'll live!

I'm back to my normal sleeping pattern.  I was up at 0650 this morning.  A couple days last week it was an 0800 alarm clock that woke me.  Between the Tylenol and Zyrtec I was sleeping quite well.  My ear hasn't bothered me all day but my sinus on the right side is still annoying.  I'm ready for my body to get back to normal.

I don't think I mentioned it, but I managed to fall/slide out of bed one night.  Our bed is tall and I use a step to get in and out of it.  Well I managed to sit to close to the edge and missed the step , falling into the nightstand.  That sure woke me up!  I banged up my left arm and wrist catching myself.  That's looking pretty right now as the bruises fade.  Sunday I had another mishap and the skin on my right arm was sliced open.  My skin is very thin.  We immediately covered this with bandages and left them on until this evening.  

Did you know you can remove those sticky Band-Aids by dabbing oil on the part with the adhesive?  I looked it up because I really didn't want to remove more skin, not to mention the hair when we removed them.  Jim and I cleaned up these wounds and re-bandaged them with a waterproof plaster.  I can shower without getting them wet..

Oh I forgot to mention that somehow I managed to get a cut on my neck, just below the jawline.  I've no clue how that happened.

I'm so glad I had all these medical problems the last 10 days or so, maybe that will be it for the year...

Don't cha know it rained most of the day!  Started before 1000 and continued most of the afternoon.  Jim and I drove down to Crawfordville to have lunch with Sonsearae after she got off from work.  Lex and Roll Sushi and Thai is liked by all of us.  After lunch Sonsearae treated me to a pedicure also in Crawfordville.  Gem Nails is a very nice place and while we soak our feet we get to enjoy a glass of wine.  I feel so pampered. Our final stop before home was Starbucks
