Tuesday, May 17, 2011-Same Old Thing-Rain

Another gloomy, wet day here. And I wasn't in a very good mood either. Seems everything was driving me crazy. My birds, especially Ricky. He was screeching all day long. That humming sound was real loud last night and I didn't sleep very well. But it is a miracle so far today, as of right now anyway (8 PM) that the noise has stopped. It always starts up at night louder it seems. I'm hoping it won't bother me again tonight. It has been running 24 hours a day though and just is quieter during the day. It's like they turn it up a notch at night.
Jasper is still under my night stand in the bedroom and hasn't come out all day. I did check on her to make sure she was still alive. She is. She had her head lying on one of my other pair of slippers. I think she's getting weaker and weaker. She was walking around some yesterday but slower than usual. And it seems one of her legs gets weak and she tips to one side now and then when she's walking.
I didn't feel too bad as far as my back and legs. I washed my windows. Only because the squirrels made a muddy mess of them.
Saw one deer last night. It was almost dark but did get one good picture of it. Got some video also which is on Youtube. The deer wanted to come over to get some nuts I think but the fox was out there also so it didn't. Don't know where it's sibling was. They were together the night before.
One of the women who live upstairs had gone to the hospital a couple times and now she is not coming back. She's almost 93 years old and was always very independent. She always took the bus to get her groceries etc. So now she is at the St. Lukes Home in Utica. Not sure she is going to stay there though. They might put her ina different nursing home. So now another apartment will be empty for a while. There are so many new people here. It just doesn't seem like the old place any more. And more and more smokers seem to be moving in. Yuck! I sure hate when they stand outside by the front entrance and we have to walk through that stinky stuff. I have yet to complain to the landlord but I plan to. I just don't think it's right. And I feel sorry for the lady upstairs. The smoke goes right into her window. I'm kind of glad I won't be around much longer. I don't like this place really. If it wasn't for the critters I would have moved long ago.
Guess I'll go watch TV for an hour then go to bed and try to get some sleep.
Take care everyone.
