Hoping I’ll get a win notice soon in the midst of all the spam and congratulations on other people’s wins I’ve been receiving. Why do these companies, people on Facebook, and wherever, feel the need to congratulate so and so or wish a happy birthday to so and so to everyone and anyone instead of just to them? If it’s their birthday or they’ve accomplished something, congratulate them! rolls eyes

And then I awake to this:

Oh, this is too funny. A surprise from an OBGYN! How lucky is that?

With my stiff and possibly arthritic hips, I’m going to give myself a day off from working out. Maybe just focus on my core. Better sleep means more energy for more walking, but I’m not yet used to all this extra walking.

Yesterday I’d swear they slipped sedatives into our cheesy breadsticks, so our energy didn’t last long. Then I read that meals high in carbs release more melatonin, so it was no wonder. We almost never have anything with bread anymore but when we spotted the cheesy breadsticks, we agreed they looked good and would throw them in to have something different. Ended up crashing a couple of hours early and getting up a couple of hours earlier than yesterday.

Going to Walmart later for the stuff we didn’t get at Sam’s and then treasure hunting at Goodwill.

Last night I had a dream I was telling someone the word for “star” in Spanish, German and Italian. Only I gave them the incorrect word in Italian and said “estrani,” which means “alienate.” So, estrella, Stern, stella.

Glad to learn Tammy’s home, though still weak. Hopefully, she’ll be strong enough to get out of there soon. Nothing on her infection and kidneys, though.
