JAN 31/12 11:42 PM

I seniorsat then took the dog for two walks. Later I played on the puter and took a nap. Tonight I borrowed Cookie's bus pass and went on a bus excursion to Champlain Place, where I bought four pizzas, a ten trip bus pass, and an Atlantic 49 lottery ticket. I plan to win $1,000,000.00, buy the bus, then give pizza to all the passengers. With dreaming like that, who needs to waste time going to sleep at night? I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 30/12 11:47 PM

I woke up around 4:00 am again. That makes the day seem very long. I took the dog for two walks. It was a nice day and she didn't want to go back inside. Joanie, from the market, showed up and gave me three Handi's pizza subs. I ate two and will save the other one for tomorrow. Later I napped on the couch and played on the puter. I cooked up a lot of food and think I may have overeaten a bit. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 29/12 11:56 PM

I had an ok day at the market. I made a few sales. One person fed me and another gave me coffee. Later I had supper at Cookie's then got my arse kicked at Wii bowling. I took the dog for a walk then played on the puter. I'm off for some beauty rest.

JAN 28/12 11:49 PM

I made a couple of sales at the market. One person fed me and another gave me coffee. After the market I played on the puter. Later I got my arse kicked at Wii bowling. I'm tired and off to get some beauty rest.

JAN 27/12 10:57 PM (FOR JAN 27/12)

It's been a long day. I woke up around 4:00 am and couldn't get back to sleep. I checked my bank account and found I got a $20.00 per month raise. I hope that doesn't mean my power bill will go up $15.00 or more. I was on my to walk Cookie to the bus stop when the light in the stairwell blew.I almost tumbled down the stairs but years of beverage drinking tought me how to come out of the stumble. I'll drink to that when I fall off the wagon. She met up with a neighbour and got a drive so I went back to bed. Later I went on a bus excursion to scenic Riverview then came back home, not even stopping for beer, subs, or BK food. I took the dog for a walk. We didn't go far, just enough so she could show a couple other doggies her new haircut. I took a nap on the couch then made supper. I played on the puter and got booted off the internet by the Blue Screen Of Death while replying to a spam email. About thirty minutes ago I found an email from one of my best internet freinds. It was sent over a month ago. I don't know how it slipped past me. She has not been well for a long time and is about to pass on. I feel like a real sh*thead for not checking my inbox more carefully, and hope she is still around to read my reply. I'm off for a snack then to watch some tv.

JAN 27/12 6:48 AM (FOR JAN 26/12

I seniorsat then took the dog for a walk. Later I went to take her for another walk and couldn't get out. My front porch was full of tvs. After a few strategic moves, and a bit of explicit language, I made it out. The dog was happy to see me and built a small log cabin on my front lawn. In the evening I found a lucky penny so I cashed in my secret savings and bought a lottery ticket. It was hard to believe just by cutting a few corners I could save over a dollar in less than two weeks. All was going well until about 9:00 pm. I went to put on the bedroom light and noticed the light switch had finally died. It is about ninety years old and had a long and productive life. The trouble is it's round and somehow sits externally on the wall. I think I just might leave it rest in peace plug in a lamp for the next couple of years. I watched a few episodes of King Of The Hill and nodded off around 11:00 pm. No neighbours were harmed from my snoring.

JAN 26/12 12:03 AM (FOR JAN 25/12)

It was a long but productive day. I woke up about 5:00 am. I made sure my sister got to her bus stop safely (a guy appears to have been following her to and from the bus stop for the last few days). Later I took the dog for a walk. After that I was off on a Whopper run. I made it home just in time to pedal to the hospital to meet with the dietitian. She taught me a few things I didn't know. I got home with a few minutes to spare before taking the dog for another walk. At bowling my team really kicked arse, taking six points from Leo's team. I lived it up having a cup of regular coffee, a cup of tea, and a cup of decaffeinated coffee. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 24/12 11:33 PM

I took the dog for two walks and and seniorsat. Later I watched some tv then took a nap. I cleaned Buddy's cage. He likes the new newspaper I put in the bottom of his cage. For supper I ate a whole pot of spagetti. It was good, burrrrrp, please excuse me. I'm off to watch some more tv.

JAN 23/12 11:13 PM

I took the dog for two walks and napped on the couch. I played on the puter then napped some more. I'm so bored I'm off for another nap.

JAN 22/12 10:57 PM

It was quiet at the market again. Two people fed me and another gave me a hot chocolate. I was tired and almost fell asleep in the afternoon. When I got home I took a ten or fifteen minute nap. Later I went to Cookie's and got my arse kicked at Wii bowling. After bowling I went home and played on the puter. I'm off to sleep through a couple of tv shows.

JAN 21/12 11:43 PM

It was quiet at the market again. I sold for $6.50 and one person fed me, so it was an ok day. It was the fifth flea market day this year I stayed awake and didn't eat any free candy. When I got home I took a ten minute nap then played on the puter. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 20/12 10:57 PM

I took the dog for two walks. I was going to spend the afternoon running around getting papers to renew my drug card, but it was too cold, so I took a nap on the couch instead. Somebody dropped me off a bunch of stuff to take to the market. That made my day. Later I cooked some macaroni with carrots and onions for supper. It didn't look like much so I dumped the whole box in. Wowsers, there's lots of it now! I'm off to watch some tv then probably dream about macaroni.

JAN 19/12 11:39 PM

My day started off with seniorsitting a half hour early. I forgot Cookie's dog was supposed to go for a haircut and didn't have him ready when the girl showed up to get him. I took my parent's dog for a couple of walks and took a nap. I got a call saying the dog was ready and was on his way home. I went to get the money for the dog's haircut and realized I was locked out. I pounded on the door but there was no answer. In a semi panic I was ready to break the lock on the door but had a great idea instead. I checked the mailbox and there was the key. I paid the girl and got the dog safely home. Later I took another nap then played on the puter. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 18/12 10:50 PM

I went on a bus excursion to the scenic town of Riverview then up Mountain Road on a Whopper run. When I got home I took the dog for a walk then played on the puter. I was going to take a nap but both phones started ringing then the doorbell rang a couple of times. I think I'll take a nap now while it's quiet.

JAN 17/12 11:27 PM

I seniorsat then the dog took me for two walks. I napped on the couch and played on the puter. I cleaned out part of my freezer. Buurrrrp, please excuse me. Somebody gave me a $25.00 gift card to the Superstore today. I might stock up on some frozen food before their sale runs out tomorrow. I'm off to try to ballance next month's budget. Ha ha.

JAN 16/12 10:44 PM

The dog took me for two walks. I went to the food bank. Between the food bank and the recent sale at the Super Store I won't be going hungry for awhile. I'm off to watch some tv then to get some beauty sleep.

JAN 15/12 11:51 PM

It was quiet at the market again. Two people fed me and I sold a few articles. Later I took a nap on the couch then played on the puter. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 14/12 11:48 PM

It was quiet at the market. I sold for $4.00, but two people fed me, so it was a good day. Later I spent almost seven hours backing up my harddrive. I think it is about to croak. I'm off to get some beauty rest.

JAN 14/12 12:05 AM (FOR JAN 13/12)

I woke up around 5:00 am. The dog took me for two walks. I napped and played on the puter most of the day. I took a nap at the laundrymat. About 11:40 pm I was making a post on Moncton Forum and got the blue screen of death. I just got my puter running again. I think I might have to buy a new harddrive soon.

JAN 12/12 11:46 PM

I seniorsat in the morning and napped in the afternoon. The dog took me for three walks and I almost froze my tenticles off. Later I played on the puter. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 11/11 11:39 PM

I took the dog for two walks and went on a Whopper run. I passed by the beer store without stopping, and wasn't going to get anything for myself at Burger King. They had their free Whopper Meal deal with the purchase of a $25.00 card so I broke down and got one. It was quite good. I stayed hom from bowling tonight, figuring if I wasn't bowling I'd be tempted to drink coffee and beer instead. Sometimes I'm smarter than I look. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 10/12 11:46 PM

I seniorsat and took the dog for two walks. I napped on the couch and played on the puter. It was a productive day.

JAN 09/12 11:29 PM

JAN 08/12 11:58 PM

It was quiet at the market. I sold for $1.00 for myself and $3.00 for Percy. Two people fed me so it wasn't too bad of a day. When I got home I took a nap then played on the puter. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 07/12 11:56 PM

It was quiet again at the market. I sold for less than $10.00, but one person fed me and I stayed awake all day. I went to Cookie's and did some Wii bowling. I did some major ass kicking. Later I played on the puter. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 06/12 11:36 PM

It was another long day. I took the dog for a walk. I got my keys back from Cookie. She had a big note on her door telling me m keys were in her mailbox. I'm sure glad a few people in the neighbourhood can't read. After that I was off to the pharmacy for my new prescriptions. My plan was basically simple. I was going to hop on the #5 bus, get a transfer to #12, do my busines, come back on #14, transfer to #5, then arive home. It was easy, leave at 1:15 pm and arive home at 4:15 pm then take the dog for another walk. It was a supposed to be to be a simple, stress free outing with some fresh air and a small bit of physical activity. I should know better than to try to plan things. To start off the blood thinners still in my blood made it feal about 20 below. The Superstore has a sale going where a lot of items are on sale for $1.00. I saw a lot of products I'm not supposed to have and am amazed with my willpower in not buying them. I had the sence to fill my hand basket with a lot of light powdert type of products so I wouldn't have to carry a heavy too heavy a load. I was doing good so far. I went back to the pharmacy section and sat on the little waiting bench. People kept coming and going. I came to the conclusion that with all the people coming and going somebody must be selling drugs there. I checked the time and was amazed to find that three hours had gone buy already. Time flies when I'm telling stories to people (for me that is...hee hee). There was nobody in the lineup so I decided to check to see how things were coming along. My order was ready well over an hour before then. They didn't see me on the bench because of the new partition, and I stayed awake so they didn't hear me snoring (that bench is great for napping on), so they figured I wasn't there and nobody came around to wake me up. It was no problem. I got my prescriptions and paid for my prescriptions. I had almost $19.00 in Superbucks so my 2 1/2 bags of groceries cost me 53 cents....Wahooo. I got outside and realized I had about 45 minutes til the next bus came. It felt like a long wait, but heck, I've waited longer. The bus came and I got on. I was in the home streach now. My happiness was short lived. A girl got on the bus with a small kid. The kid had a dirty diaper and directly across from me. It was a long, long trip back to Moncton. With the gout in my knee starting to act up, I was starting to get cranky. I was almost home when, DING, somebody rang the bell. Normally it isn't a problem with me, I'll just get off there and walk home. I didn't have to the nerve to ring the bell at my bus stop which is only three houses away. I decided to stay on the bus and get off up the street, using it as an excuse to stop and buy a lottery ticket. Wonder of wonders, I found out I didn't have any money with me. I thought to myself, I should have gotten off at the first stop. My knee was really starting to ache by now. On the way home these two young guys were coming along the sidewalk side by each. Neither yealded so I stepped onto somebody's lawn into a small hole. Holey geez, did that ever hurt. Further on a streetlight went out causing me to step into a deep crack in the sidewalk. I commemorated the event with a loud round of profanity. I made it home and hobbled up the stairs, glad to finally be home. My 3 hour trip somehow turned into 7/12 hours. I'm tired. Holey $%#@, I just realized I,ve been typing for about 75 minutes on this entry. I'm off for beauty sleep.

JAN 05/12 11:11 PM

I made it home from the hospital today. It was a long hobble to the bus stop, then a long climb up the three steps to get on the bus. The walk from the bus stop was quite a challenge, as was the long climb up the stairs up to the second floor. My landlord had to let me in as Cookie still has my keys. He also gave me some really good pills. My gout is almost gone. Later I napped on the couch and played on the puter. I'm off to watch some tv.

JAN 04/12 10:34 PM

It was another long day but it was a good one. I had my other two tests and I think the look good. I also did a third unscheduled test on my defibulater unit. I needed the last test to keep my driver's liscence valid. I guess even though it is a new unit, it still has to pass inspection. The doctor faxed the results to Frederiction. Hopefully that will keep that nice lady at the DMV off my back for a little while. Later I watched some tv, napped, and played on the puter. I'm off to watch some more tv.

JAN 03/12 11:40 PM

It was another long day. I woke up about 3:00 am and had a hard time trying to get back to sleep. I got bumped for two of the three tests I was supposed to get done in the morning but did one in the afternoon. I guess I'll be doing them tomorrow. That means no eating or drinking after midnight. I'm off to watch the Frasier marathon on tv.

JAN 02/12 8:25 PM

It was a long day. I think I have gout in my right knee. It hurts like a SOB. I hope it gets better before tomorrow as I have three tests to do, and I think one involves a treadmill. I'm off to wach part of the Married With Children marathon on channel 18. I think I'll be dozing off about 9:00 pm.

JAN 01/11 10:32 PM

It was a quiet day. I ate a lot, slept, played on the puter, and watched tv. The removed my iv unit this afternoon so I think I'm one step closer to going home. I want to get out, as I have lots to do, but they feed me well, so it's ok if they keep me for awhile. Here is what they fed me today:
1 BOWL OF CORNFLAKES
1 EGG
4 SLICES OF WW TOAST WITH MARGARINE, JAM, AND PEANUT BUTTER
2 BOWLS OF VEGETABLE SOUP
1 PLATE OF ROAST BEEF, PEAS, AND POTATOES WITH GRAVY
2 WW ROLLS WITH MARGARINE
1 PEACH
1 PLATE OF MEAT PIE, CARROTS, AND POTATOES WITH GRAVY
1 BOWL OF SALAD
1 BOWL OF APPLE SAUSE
I'm off to watch some tv and wait for this sleeping pill to kick in. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
