February 24, 2011-Went Out Today Before The Snow Comes

I went out to get a few groceries today. It was cloudy but not too bad. It was around 29 degrees when I left at 11:00 am. It got up to maybe 33 today and a few flurries now and then. I figured I'd better go because tomorrow we are expecting some heavy, wet snow. Six to twelve inches in some places. if we are lucky it will turn to rain and we won't get too much. To the south of us it will be rain. All depends on how far north it comes. We are right on the border of it all. I'll be all safe and sound inside no matter what happens.
I've been having a problem with my hot water tank blowing the breakers for the past two days and late this afternoon I heard an awful loud noise coming from the tank. The breaker had blown again. So I called the maintenance man at home. I hate to bother him but..... so he came over around 6 pm and cleaned out a lot of the lime and replaced the bottom element. He could see where it had burned. Now I won't have to worry about that for a while.
Other than going out and having the hot water tank fixed it has been a quiet day. Not much going on around here. Or if there is I don't know about it. I don't go out of my apartment that much anyway. It's more exciting to me to stay in and sit by the window and watch all the critters outside.
My upper back is bothering me today. I noticed it while lying in bed last night and I also had a strange pain in my liver area. It went away but it makes me nervous. I don't want it to start breaking down on me yet. I know it's going to but I would like to get one more summer in.
I don't think this flange and barrier are going to last for three days like I hoped. I guess the Eiken seals work the best and I will now stick to them, along with the Convatec Moldable convex Flange. I put that new Adapt Convex barrier onto the moldable flange this time. I did not add the Eiken seal. But it didn't stick to my skin as well as the Eiken seal does. I'm learning. The only thing I will change is the Convatec bag. Right now I am using the clear drainable bags with the clip at the bottom. I want to change to the fold up bottom with the velcro. It's called Invisiclose I think. The clip is too hard and gets in my way.
It's my bedtime now so I'll be back tomorrow. Take care everyone.
