Dear (((Liz)))! Good to hear you didn’t gamble and that you’re feeling better. Sorry to hear that your grandson is in the middle of family drama once again. I loved the bunk beds you bought your grandson and the bedding that was on them. I woke up this morning to the first day of living alone in my new place with no company, other than my cat. If you read on facebook, I have had an interesting week. When I was in the country I dropped a heavy table on my foot and it burst a blood vessel and I had a lump almost the size of an egg on the top of my foot, as well as swelling, bruising, and lots of pain that first day. The blood has mostly reabsorbed in my foot, but I still have a small amount of pain, my foot is still swollen, and I have bruising. The next day I take my car into the dealership to have a complete major service where they look at everything, and I find out at the end of the day that they couldn’t do the service as they didn’t have the right parts. My appointment for the car was at 8:00 am. The next day I figure nothing can go wrong and I take my car into the dealership where I bought it in the city, to get a new windshield, and the company that does the windshields hasn’t been booked for me. So no new windshield. I call telus as I supposed to receive a new big screen TV for a 3 year commitment on my cable and internet. I was told 2 to 4 weeks and I had the installation done July 19th. The woman tells me that August 29th the request was sent to their warehouse to send me the TV and that it will take 2 to 4 weeks for me to get that TV. I told the woman that I was on my last nerve concerning telus. She gave me a bit of a discount on my next bill, but it is nothing compared to the aggravation I have gone through with their company. Then yesterday I get up at 6:00 am to attend my re-scheduled CPR/First Aid course, and the fire alarm keeps going off in the building due to water in the basement from a rain storm. I’m re-re-scheduled to attend next weekend. On the positive side, I figure that this coming week something I try to do, will work out. I have my cat and he is settling in with me. There is lots of family drama going on in Danny’s family, and I’m glad I’m not there to even see it. For all the things that haven’t worked out for me, I had no control over any of them, with the exception that I was the one that dropped the table on my foot. The person that borrowed the tables 2 months ago was supposed to return them and didn’t so I told her I would pick them up instead. "V" got her results for the 2 days of testing regarding her heart. She did not have a heart attack and she has no blockages anywhere. She was expecting the worse so she said she felt like celebrating. Kevin’s memory hasn’t improved one iota and he is taking up an acute care bed in the country hospital while his family waits for him to get into a brain rehab facility. I don’t believe that Kevin will ever be able to live independently again. His short-term memory is terrible and he seems stuck in another time. Every few minutes he asks the same question and doesn’t remember that his dad has ****. When he asks where his dad is, and he is told that he **** 5 years ago, it’s like it’s the first time he hears that, and gets very depressed. I suggested that the family steer the conversation to something else when he asks about his dad, as he is deeply hurt every time he hears that info or that they ask him where he thinks his dad is.
