This may fall into the Too Much Information category, but it is my life.
For instance, did you know that if you eat wreath cookies with green food coloring in them, you get green poop? I didn't. Very colorful!
Then, today, I went to open a car door and a piece of ice bit me under the thumbnail. At least, I think that's what happened...or I somehow ripped the nail into the "quick". It bled and now hurts. Yuck!
Last night, it felt like I had food caught between a couple of back molars, so I got out the floss and started working in there. Out popped a huge portion of my tooth! That means I now have three broken teeth, and I'm beginning to wonder if I am going to end up with dentures. I do have dental insurance, but it doesn't pay all that much toward mouth appliances. Guess I will wait to make the dentist appointment after I get back from Illinois. It's getting rather hard to eat!
I took my car to a repair garage in Stilesville this morning. It's a bit of a hike, but a ham friend works there and is fair in charging. He/They determined that the thermostat was, indeed, the problem with the "check engine" light. Had that replaced and had them flush and fill the radiator on the recommendation of another ham friend. Total cost was just under $300. Just hope the car will make it through winter with no further problems. And speaking of that, I left the house 10 minutes early to go meet my back-up ride to the repair shop. Thought all I would have to do was brush the snow off the car, but nooooo... There was ice under the snow. Had to scrape. I was 10 minutes late meeting Big Ryan and about froze my hands in the process. I hate winter!
I was in what used to be the master bedroom last evening. ("Used to be" because it was once mine...then we moved Meg in there when the garage was made into a Grandma room...and now it's empty.) Trying to decide what to do back there. Anyway, I was organizing the stuff she left behind, figuring out what to do with it. Came across a journal, of sorts, that Meg wrote back when she was in high school and in "luv" with Mike L. Couldn't think of living without him...blah, blah. Water under the bridge. My first thought was to sit down at the computer and transcribe it for posterity, but my second thought was "Whatever for"?? It went in the trash. Bye-bye!
All of Indiana--and maybe the rest of the country--is talking about last night's Colts game, where the coach's decision was to remove the starters from the game with only a 5-point lead, in order to prevent anyone from getting hurt before the playoffs. Colts have been undefeated, and it was a home game. Guess what? Colts lost! There are a whole bunch of disgruntled fans. What's done is done, but there is a lot of armchair quarterbacking going on in the Hoosier state today!
Worked on my bedroom some today. My bedroom (garage room) = place where everything goes that has no other place in the house. Digging out...again. Will the job ever be done???
Stay tuned!
Watching the weather for the Illinois trip on Wednesday...
