Today

Pretty good day today, except for the gastric distress that’s plagued me for the last few days.  Today was  better than yesterday by a lot, so that’s a plus.  Must have been something I ate.

I am concerned about the old doge Nonna , in Greece.  I just pray that she can recover enough to have some good final years.

Not much else to report, which is OK, too.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

More on Nonna (today’s update)

She seems to be improved (to me)  She’s very weak and is favoring one side, but if she is left to her own devices, she will move those weak muscles.  Rest food and water seem to be about the best thing for her now.  It’s really in God’s hands.

The New, Expensive Bridge–Oops!

The newly-renovated Bayonne Bridge connecting New Jersey and Staten Island had to be closed yesterday–because, when winter weather hits, the freakin’ ramp turned out to be too steep and cars and trucks not only couldn’t climb the slippery slope: some of them got up a little ways and began to slide back down.

This after millions of dollars were spent on assorted feasibility studies, tens of millions on construction, with a bottom-line cost of well over a billion dollars and maybe, eventually, more.

Didn’t they know it would be too steep, if the roads were icy? Aren’t engineers supposed to know those things? Or were they just counting on Climate Change to make snow and ice and sleet, like, just not happening anymore?

Can’t take it back to the store and ask for a refund, can we?

Oh, well, hey, it works just fine in nice weather!

A bossy, gabby and unusual looking cat.

This cat has such an unusual voice.  And he uses it a lot.

Hairless puppy has beautiful coat now

They never said the reason for her lack of hair.  I’m assuming it was mange, because the new hair came in without a problem.

Just had to post this.

Sweet Hour of Prayer

Another post on Nona she seems a lot better

She seems to be doing better.  Poor old girl.  Bless her.

Pretty busy day

I spent a lot of the morning doing administrative stuff.  Contacting my new prescription drug insurance company, etc.  It needed to be done and took a surprising amount of time.

Then late in the day I managed to rip the skin on my right hand pinkie, pulling a stapled piece of paper off a grocery bag.  It’s a whole bunch of fun trying to put a bandaid on your right hand if you’re right handed.

At least all  the stuff is gone from the little desk on my computer hutch.  It looks so nice and clean without the clutter of papers.

That will do it for today.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.
