Designer Bag Bingo

       
Last night Olya and I went to Designer Bag Bingo,  I have attended many and have never won a thing but it is fun and I am always hopeful!! We joined my friend Candy and  all of her relatives and friends!!I think there were over 15 people at our table and they were all Italian and they all brought fabulous food!!  We had veggies and dip, sliced fruit, homemade brownies, chips, soft pretzel bites,  pretzels,  and PIZZA!! Everything was delicious!!  Olya was in her glory because she loves food and there was so much to choose from!  Olya won a designer wallet in one of the raffle drawings. It has a retail value of $68.00.  She was the only one at our table who won anything.  We all had such a wonderful time!! Candy gets along with all of her in-laws!! They are all friends and are all close.  And they, like Candy, are very,  friendly.  At the Bingo I saw a woman who use to be the nurse at the middle school my kids attended.  She also is my close friend Joann's cousin!  Joann and I went to college together. It's a small world!!
        Today my friend Nancy, who was a former school librarian, brought over decorations for me to use for book club!  She hade them for a book club she use to run and she was on an advisory board . They are really cute and I appreciate that she brought them to me!
         I am finished cleaning for book club and I started to set up a few things so life is all good right now!! I am picking Olivia up from Beauty School with Olya.  Then we are going shopping.  They supposedly both need black leggings.  They have so many clothes that they can't close their drawers or fit anything else in their closets!!
         I forgot that a woman I know has Parkinson's.  I forgot all about that! She called me and then I remembered as we were chatting.  She is the nicest person and I feel bad that she has this disease. I am going to go to her house and chat this afternoon.  Maybe she has a great neurologist to use!

Stiff Neck

Image
        Today I woke up with a stuff neck! It is so painful that I forgot about my sciatica for a while. I took two Tylenol every few hours and maybe that is why my sciatica didn't bother me as much as it usually does.  I could feel the pain in my neck every time I moved! I didn't realize how much I move my head all day long until it was painful to do so. I got up at 7:30 because I had workers coming to clean my kitchen floor. I just can't do it any more!  They didn't get to my house until 9:30 because they are also working on my driveway and had to get filler and blacktop stuff!   I cleaned the kitchen while I waited for them. Tomorrow I just have to clean the family room and run my Roomba! My Parkinson's was definitely front and center, even with my stiff neck. I kept freezing in one spot and my  balance was way off!. It is really annoying to be cleaning a toilet and feeling  like you are going to fall into the bowl!! Yesterday I chatt...

Beautiful Day at the Cemetery Visiting our daughter Amy

Image
         Today was an absolutely beautiful day, it was probably in the high seventies. When it's a nice day, we always take our folding chairs and sit at the cemetery for awhile. I had my book with me and Dan took the newspaper. On the front page was a sad story about two young women who used Heroin.  One young woman purchased the heroin and the other young woman died from an overdose.  The purchaser and her 17 year old sister left the young woman, an only child, in a bathroom in a fast food place when they couldn't revive her with water, etc. That young woman was found after they left and taken to a hospital where she died. Now,  the young woman who purchased the heroin  was sentenced to twenty something years in prison. Her 17 year old  sister testified against her and was set free after the trial  I think that is a rather severe sentence but a bright and beautiful young woman is dead forever.         ...

WARNING ABOUT GABAPENTIN AND PREGABALIN

Image
Yesterday we went to see The Christmas Miracle at a sight and sound theater! It was amazing and we all had a nice time. Olya and her boyfriend Matt came with us, they met  us there because Olya went home with Matt on Friday.  Olivia and her "friend" Anthony also met us there.  I think they all had a nice time at the show.  We went to eat at the Waffle House after the performance! Yesterday was NOT a bad day for me with PD, but it was really bad with Sciatica.  I think my Sciatica is worse when it is cold! And it was really cold here yesterday!  I have been wearing my scarf and my gloves in the house, I have no idea whether it is PD related or not. I have a gas insert fireplace and I run it constantly so my house is usually warm, not sure why I am so so cold.          Today we went with my sister and her three adult children to see the play Buddy the Elf! It was really cute, it sort of really gets us ...
