Well--Hi.

January 6^th, 

I’ve had an Epiphany.

And that Partridge still up high in my tree?

Rifle at the ready, Lunch he will be!

=====================================

How is everybody doing?

Only kidding!  I read your blogs every day.  I haven't really been sleep-hibernating, I have just been hibernating in my house.  

I went to Wal-Mart and stocked up (thanks to a gift card from Pammie) before the new year, parked my car and haven't gone anywhere since.  I LOVE IT!!

On New Year's day, I sat and watched three football bowl games in a row--12 hours of watching football.  Michigan State--MY SPARTANS won the Cotton Bowl in the last few seconds.  I was yelling and whooping and hollering!  

I always like to start a new cross stitch project on New Year's Day, so I was happily cross stitching all day and...every day since.

Dar came over one day and I didn't answer the door. I heard her rattle the door knob, but I had the door locked so she couldn't get in.  She went home and called Pearl to see if I was all right and Pearl told her, "She's fine.  She's just hibernating from the world."  HAH

I did answer the phone, even though I didn't want too.  I just truly wanted to shut out the world and stay in peace and relaxation.  I also made a phone call to a friend in Florida that I haven't talked to in a year and that was nice to catch up.  I talked to Pammie and Pearl and my sister, on the phone, but other than that....

So--you got bored with my "Twelve Days of Christmas" griping?  That poem came to me on Christmas Day night, so I sat down and typed it up.  I typed it up the way I would feel if all those "gifts" were presented to me.  I would be grouchy!

The nice thing is, I don't have to go anywhere the rest of the month.  Unless I decide to go to the Old Gals Luncheon on the 15th.  It will depend on my mood and weather conditions. 

Well-I do need to make a doctor's appointment, for my three month visit which was three months ago, LOL.  He insists that I come in every three months, which to me is utter nonsense.  I prefer every year, but will do every six months.  He likes to give me my prescriptions for only three months at a time, so I have to call in to get them renewed and then get scolded for not coming in every three months.  

I AM PERFECTLY HEALTHY AND FINE!  What's he going to do for me?  Does he have a cure for my Tinnitus?  NO.  Does he have a cure for my arthritis?  NO.  Can he help the pain in my back and neck?  NO.  Does he was a cure for the tremor in my right hand?  NO!

When I go in, the nurse will refill all my prescriptions on the computer, take my weight and draw some blood.  The doc will walk in and say, "Well, what brings you in today?"

I will say, "I'm here because you insisted I come in."

Then he might check my lungs and heart and carotid arteries.  I will be fully clothed all the time.  Then out the door I will go and they will bill Medicare $220.00  Such nonsense.

I know I mentioned that odd numbered years have been much better, in my life, than even numbered years.

We are 6 days in to 2015 and so far it has been wonderful.  Well, at least nothing bad has happened, so I guess, that makes it wonderful.  Right?

Toodles Noodles, see ya tomorrow.
