I can hardly walk today. My left leg and knee hurts real bad. I tried using the scooter around here but it's not too handy at getting at things and I have to keep getting up anyway. It's better to use the walker. And my legs don't sit on the scooter that well. They keep wanting to fall to the sides and that's not good. I might hit them on the door jam..
The reason why I'm hurting so bad is that I went out last night to get some groceries. I walked real slow but it did a job on my knee. I know I should use one of those riding carts and I guess soon I will have to. But they are a pain too. I'd have to keep getting up to get things and then when I got to the door I'd have to transfer everything into a regular cart to get it to the car. So what's the use? I guess when I can't walk any more I will just have to ask for help.
The pain in my upper back and belly area on the right side is still bothering me also. I'm always wondering how long I have. I have little goals now. To make it till Christmas first. Then to New Years. I'm not going to think too far ahead at this time.
My sister, Pam, turns 50 tomorrow. She's next to the last kid in the family. I can't believe all the little kids are all 50 years old now. Yikes! Just Mike is left and he will turn 50 on June 10th, 2003. That's the day our mother died. Sure doesn't seem that long ago.
I'm not buying any gifts for the kids. I just give them money and an ornament. I bought little bags to put them in so no wrapping either. I will just make special gift cards for each of them. I only give Nina's kids something. I can't afford the rest. I would give Ginny's small boys something but now she's in hiding again so I won't be making them any more DVD's. I haven't heard from her again. Only that one time for my birthday. So I have no idea where she is.
Heather drove to NY for Thanksgiving to be with her dad and brothers. She was supposed to come and visit me but she didn't. She wrote a note to me on Facebook and said she didn't have enough money to drive down. So I guess she never did see anyone down this way. But at least she got to her brothers and father. That's more important.
I haven't heard anything more from Sarah. I hope she's doing okay way over there in Kyrgyzstan. I know she will miss being home for Christmas. But at least she has Leo there too. That's her boyfriend. I made them a couple Jibjab movies. That will make them smile anyway..
It was a frosty morning and we might get a few flurries of snow but I haven't seen anything yet. just a cloudy day and cool. In the 30's.
So that's all for now. I'll be back soon. Have a nice day everyone.

Ginny - How will we know if you take a turn for the worst? You know, we're going to be worried about you and wishing you comfort in the difficult times ahead.
Well Di, I will let you all know when I start getting bad. Or if something happens suddenly I will tell my daughter to get on here and tell you all I guess. Thanks Di. It is difficult in this computer, online world. I have known a lot of people that have died that I met in chat rooms long ago but others would always let everyone know but sometimes people just disappear and you never know what happened. I keep all my online addresses and passwords here for my daughter. If she don't do it then one of my sisters will. I hope I'm around for quite a while longer though!
