Wednesday, January 5, 2022 Cold, Windy Storm a-coming 48 degrees 6:01 p.m.

Yes, it has been a winter day, wind was chilly and sun not very warm. However the Wondering Jew got to go out for a few hours. It does like the sun. I stayed in with my foot propped up for the most part. It feels fine but still need to keep it propped up more then hanging down or standing on it for more then a minute. I can feel it but it isn’t particularity painful, just a bit uncomfortable. Two more days. Then I should be back to normal in my own shoe.

Dottie and dog Max were over today. We watched Nash Bridges movie. It was good. Had lunch, Taco Boats. and Monkey bread for desert. It is always fun to have them visit and we will soon be starting to work on some craft projects. We both have things t get together for what we want to make. It will be fun.

Other then that I haven’t done much exciting today. When sitting with your foot propped up there isn’t much you can do but read, visit and watch TV. All the upcoming excitement is a winter storm is brewing and we will be under a winter storm advisory starting at 10:00 a.m. tomorrow. We might get snow. That will be pretty as long as I am inside and it is outside. Walking in snow in this sandal wouldn’t be much fun I don’t think.

The philosophy for today:

To make all your friends feel that they have something special in them.

Have a wonderful rest of your Wednesday. I hope that your weather is beautiful, and your first five days of the new year are the very best.

Blessings

A cold but lovely day. There is still snow in several places, like the mountains, but down here we just have some wet spots left and it is cold. Coats and gloves and hats and mittens are a must. It is good to feel winter as it is January and that is a winter month!

Today I went and had my hammer toes fixed. Only on one foot. I had put it off as long as possible but it was starting to feel like I was walking on my tippy toes, so knew that it was time. My foot will be a bit painful for a couple of days but well worth it. I am supposed to keep my foot up as much as possible for a couple of days so will do my best to do so. I have one of those cute black sandals to wear on that foot. I can’t see why they don’t give you two so that they match?.!!!

Tina finally got her new phone fixed. She couldn’t get texts or calls from most everyone. Only Jerry, Tammy, Dottie and myself could reach her. After 4 trips back to Xfinity it was discovered that Apple was blocking all the other texts and calls. Not the Robo calls. She was told that it was because they didn’t want to loose the customer. They do that when one drops them. That isn’t good business as far as I can see.

My philosophy for today:

To talk health, happiness, prosperity to every person you meet.Have a great rest of your Tuesday. Make it pleasant,

prosperous, productive and fun.

Blessings

Monday, January 3, 2022 Cloudy Cold Still Snow flurries 34 degrees 4:58 p.m.

It is hard to believe that this is the 3rd day of the new year. Winter arrived yesterday with rain, wind and early this morning snow for most of Eastern Tennessee. We have had the rain and wind, but just snow flurries on and off all day. It is cold, that damp bone chilling cold. The windows were steamed up and the car had to be warmed up. The furnace came on at 67 degrees. Yep, it is winter. Brrrr!

The weekend was quiet around here. Ball Games and movies, reading and playing games. Nothing exciting. Since Tina had the early shift at

Home Depot we were in bed early. She asleep in her room by 8 and me in mine watching TV. By 9:30 I was out. I see the New Year came in without us watching. It did very well I think. Sunday was more of the same. Now it is Monday and the beds have been changed, and the buffet cleaned out. Two trips to Kroger’s, two trips to J.C. Penny’s and two trips to Xfinity. One trip to Korn’s. We got groceries at Kroger’s, got home and the bag of Cuties had several moldy ones in it as did the bag of potatoes so we had to take them back. The other two stores weren’t open and didn’t open until noon so had to go back. I guess they all thought they needed the morning off.

Jerry and Tammy got the snow but we didn’t. You know he didn’t go out and build a snowman. I just talked to Dottie and she said that she had enough snow that she had to shovel the snow off her porch in order for her to take the dog out. She is in Clinton which is about 28 miles from us.

That is my day and it has been a good one, Now, I will leave you with this bit of philosophy and wish you a great rest of the third day of the New Year.

“Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind”.
