I was both surprised and glad to learn that Becky is home now. I thought she would be laid up in the hospital for close to a month, so it’s good that she’s home. I’ve asked Tammy for their address so I can send something, though I don’t know what I’m going to send yet. I want to wait for Tom to wake up first because I always value his input.

Now I’ll go back to using Facebook for what I usually use it for… messages and photos. It isn’t just that Facebook is filled with too much repetition and negativity that gets to me, but all the fucking spam in the news feed. Every 2 to 3 posts are filled with “suggested” this and “suggested” that. I’ve let Facebook know that if I want to find things to buy or groups to join I’ll look for them on my own, and all they tell me is that they’re “looking into it.” What this basically means is they don’t give a shit and they’re going to do whatever they’re going to do.

Pinterest, who deleted yet another pin (this makes 4 in about a week), says they responded to my feedback, but I don’t see anything anywhere. It doesn’t matter. I’m not using them anymore. Not just because of that but because their site has been running snail slow since the last upgrade. I would like to deactivate but don’t know whether or not my stuff would still be there if I reactivated later on.

I can hear the TV blasting again from my house diagonally from us. Yes, it’s annoying because I shouldn’t have to hear anybody’s TV in a house, especially in a retirement community, but just turning the fan or air cleaner on low drowns it out.

The visuals were both unique and interesting when we were out walking late last night. We just rounded the corner from the clubhouse when we saw a car with the passenger door ajar. My first thought was that someone was either in the car or forgot to close the door. When we moved closer to it we could see that the other door, as well as the hood, was ajar and that the car had been on fire. This had to have burned right there on the street. I wonder why, though. An accident? Arson? If it was deliberately set, which I doubt, then I bet this would be the first case of car arson in a retirement community!

Made a small Amazon order. Stuff for the car, filament to print the part he needs to fix the hose that’s leaking air now that he’s isolated it, stuff for the rats, colorful glitter notepads for notes on whatever dreams I remember, and a handful of solar toys and decorative stickers. I love those little dancing solar toys! I want to put a little shelf across the kitchen window so they can all dance and bounce in the sunlight.

The other 3-D cat sticker arrived for the second bath’s toilet lid. Still waiting on that burger and pizza for the kitchen counters.
