Annie's meanderings

            Happy 2008 Ya'll!  I think.....

   Yes, I know, I disappeared again.  As of tomorrow it will have been a full 4 weeks of being sick.  This last week I had an infected gland in the back of my throat.  It felt like having a walnut in my throat and swallowing was really painful.  Saw my doctor on Monday and she gave me more antibiotics.  I'm beginning to think I'm almost well.  I hope so....I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired!

   I'm not sure what I want to do with this journal this year.  I (only briefly) considered taking the challenge on the NoBloPoMo to try to journal every day in 2008.  I have trouble thinking of subjects for every day posts.  I don't know how to insert pictures.  I don't get out but maybe once a month.  I see few movies.  I don't read books (can't afford a Kindle yet).  Daily life in an old folks home is not interesting to anyone.  Any of you out there have any constructive ideas for me?  I do watch TV but I don't think that's a very interesting subject on a regular basis. 

laters......

  How about telling us of memories of things in the past? I've done that a lot. You can also read lots of journals and sometime it will jar something in your mind for an entry. Hope you continue to feel better. Paula

  Well, maybe you could give us an update once a week?  I know that I see some of what happens to you at my mom's place, but even there it is different.  A good number of people have family in the area, some even still have a spouse over in the main part of the Manor.  Most at least have friends and there are resident-members that come over nearly daily to make sure that the HCC residents are not being neglected.  Even then, I don't seeing it from the inside, tho I can understand the frustration of being mentally alert in a place where others are fading fast.
  
  And don't forget to update us on Lady!
