Labor Day 2013 Florida and Michigan

I hope everyone who celebrates this Labor Day is safe and well and has fun !

I'm going to a barbeque later this afternoon. There will be  entertainment too !

Back in my home state of Michigan, Labor Day is celebrated with a annual Homecoming.
There is a large parade today, and all weekend has been a carnival, chicken barbeque down by the river, sponsored by the Rotary Club, a talent show, a classic car show, and a cake walk sponsored by the Belding Band Boosters. The grand finale tonight will be a fantastic, awesome amazing fireworks show !

Have a safe and Happy Labor Day ! *smile*

Internet Browsing, Starts My Day

That is, after I have all the important things done, which one does when they get out of  bed after a night's sleep.

After that, checked and answered my emails from two accounts.
Then I ate breakfast and got my  written grocery list to take with me to Publix , our neighborhood grocery store here in St Petersburg,

I got my stuff, talked with friends who were there , and went to the customer service desk to get my lotto winnings. Smile. It was only three out of the six numbers I had, but this is the very first time I have ever won anything from the Florida Lotto ! I got five dollars for those numbers, and put it right back into another ticket, hopefully a winner this Saturday.

I checked out and paid for my groceries, and scooted on home.
Now I will make lunch and get around for the maintenance guys from my building to arrive to do some work in my apartment.

Smile.

Wednesday First Post

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight !
There. That should apply to the whole world . Smile.

I'm sitting here in my pajamas , browsing around the net and getting all arranged in my mind the schedule I need to remember for today.

I'm still getting that chemo injection for rheumatoid arthritis, but I'm not so afraid of it as I used to be. The dosage amount even had to be raised, as I was beginning to not be able to walk normally.

One knee is bad, but the left one is worse, which is , as the xrays showed, half gone.

I actually look forward to Wednesdays now, because I know the injection is going to help cut down the severe inflammation and ultimately, the pain and function ability.

The day before the injection is due, the previous week's has worn off. Yay ! I have no chemo brain, lol. My thinking is so clear and alert, and I'm the normal me again !

I must sign off and go shower, and make breakfast, then ride my scooter over to the doctor's office where my nurse will give me the injection.

Next post will be about what has happened to me in the past few months. Some good and some bad. We have to take the bad with the good, and keep on going. Smiles.
