Two more appointments this week then hopefully we will be done for a while!  We go see the dietitian tomorrow, and Dr. Ahmad on Thursday.  I've seen just about enough doctor's offices to do me for a while.  Getting old isn't for sissies! 

This time change is going to be the death of me. It was 7 o'clock in the evening and I felt like it was 10.  I would have loved to go to bed, but then I would have probably been up at 2 am and that's NOT a good thing.

Ken and I made a Walmart run this evening.  They had their Halloween costumes for 75% off.  My babies love playing dress up, so I got them each a couple costumes.  I know Tristan will be happy because I found him Darth Vader and a ninja. I tell you....I'm really racking up the extra points in the Mimi of the  year competition.

I go in to the office tomorrow, so I think I'm going to go ahead and get my shower and gather up things for in the morning.  I think I'm going to be going to bed early tonight!

To be honest, I feel kindda down today.  I guess it's just one of "those" days.  Ken and I went out for a little while this evening.  It's the first time he's been anywhere except for the Dr. and work since his stroke.  We planned to go to dinner and a movie.  We made it to dinner but got  a late start so didn't make it to the movie.  Maybe another day...  Ken is doing really well, but he just tires SO easily.  I keep telling him that his body has been through a lot and it's going to get better.  I just don't want him to get discouraged and give up.  It's difficult seeing him when you know he just doesn't feel good.  I'm doing my best to take care of him and keep him motivated.

I had a really sad thought this evening.  My Momma and I were talking about the shooting in the airport in LA.  I remember years ago when you heard of something like that it seemed to be a really big deal.  I think so many bad things happen any more that I have just become calloused to it.  It's like "another school shooting", "another hostage situation", "another shooting".  It's really sad state when we take tragedies like this as just normal everyday happenings. 

I'm not sure what I'm going to find to get in to this weekend.  I'd like to do deep cleaning on the bedroom then I'm thinking about finding myself another crochet project.  I used to crochet all the time then I quit for several years.  I've made 4 baby afghans in the past few months and I think I've got the "bug" again.  Ken would like me to make him an afghan.  That's probably what I'll start on next.  I like crocheting in the winter.  I can snuggle up in my project while I work on it LOL.

I hope everyone enjoys their weekend.
