i worried about pretty near everything

yesterday's hot spot connection was weak i was sure i'd done something when it actually depends on how many are using the signal.  now i'm conscious of that but my training of family blame instantly goes to it's my fault.  i'm still retraining myself.  

showered @ 24 and walked lucky's $12 leg warmers i want.  1:30 eating b king at cup, new movies.  so juicy good jr.  all down my front.  oh, well.  I ate fries driving.  the idea of eating a little all day appeals to me.  today i check out ace hardware.  so cool.  tons of things like frozen pies, pizza ovens, more tools and toys than i've ever seen.  garden, plumbing, everything and so helpful.  amazing.  safeway across the street sold me 3 paint boards $3.  funny 'cause they insisted it wasn't their product they sold it to me miscellaneous.  nob hill i found clearance 2 dinners $1.99 ea.  i sorted socks and put on my new cat valentine p j s.

i remembered last day of the year main library open

11:30 and the bookstore closed.  oh, well.  i don't need anything to use coupon.  i'm here watching, blessing people.  lots of dads with their little boys.  it's funny little boys are so active.  i'm sitting hoping bookstore will open.

1 pm even with protein shake time for home and lunch.  i changed my mind.  i used my medicare at walmart.  supplements and choc shakes.  $94 for 39 cents.  so i don't have to go tomorrow.  then i remembered college safeway frozen dinners.  jetted over and home by 3.  fish dinner and double chocolate muffin.

so it took 6 years to get over eric's too young death.  after cancer for 5 years and all the suffering.

i used to worry about sleep

now i know when i need to i will.  i'm still growing and changing.  just in reverse.  getting ready to leave the planet.  i've earned the right to live my way.

went to main after 24 picked up holds.  then lunch and sprouts i felt so good i went to walmart bought $80+ still have $86.  

email from sunny now i know how they keep their 40 current.  they want to charge $75 for lost hot spot late 21 days.  they didn't subtract the 4 days they were closed.  

i gave away calendars and have 2 from hiratas.  

it's so smoky from fireplaces and it's 60 degrees.  3 times pollution air.gov.  warm tee shirt weather.

i'm feeling jubilant

nothing has changed substantively.  yet i feel the lifetime of anxiety overwhelmed by happiness.  

i put the laundry in the car.  i decided i can ride around with dirty laundry and the world will continue.  mom won't kill me because she died in 2001 not taking her medication on mother's day with oldest sister too busy running around.  counselor called it passive suicide.  i call it attention deficit.  so many depressing details in my life.  too many to count.  

i showered at 24 lots of parking go figure.  open new year's.  excellent.  i realized the cuts on my hands are from the shower wand in handicapped stall.  it's frequently occupied.  so i cut myself.  i had tea tree oil and bandages.  another mystery solved.  

i went to seniors early so toki won't worry.  lunch ok.  on my way to main i stopped at sprouts 2 chips, double choc chip muffins, broccoli clover sprouts.  i felt so good i washed laundry & charged devices.  home i parked in driveway, through garage i hung everything, put away puzzles looking for city movies, found them.  i forgot i was going to use sunny sewing machine and return hot spot.  next week.  

auntie's book arrived.  i checked it out.  i prefer glossy.  matte more expensive not better.

i went safeway then sprouts.  gave toki honey chili hummus and milk just as she was leaving parking lot.  i bought clearance 2 yogurt cheese, hummus, almond dip, half cherry pie, olive artichoke dip.  i'm tempted to eat it out of the package.  

no water at senior center so everything in to go.  mediocre deli turkey stew frozen veg.  i ate mine at main library cathy called me she has money problems she goes out to lunch with her ladies and she likes entertaining.  oh, well she's an adult.

'the lost king'

i'm so nerdy.  sally hawkins, steve coogan about finding richard iii burial spot.  and about who controls media controls the 'truth'.  if trump becomes king his stories will be outrageous.

i ordered book on hiranos in hawaii.  justin pham e mailed a link so i went to tech center and nick directed.  due to be delivered jan 4 th.  woo hoo!  

i misread ad lucky's freebies end the 24th.  i thought it said 21.  so i'm still collecting.  today street corn dip.  such a great day.  the guys brought their wives full table.  so great.  i'm feeling productive.  one week done one to go.  art is going to sunny not mountain.  much closer.  starts at 4 k a month.

sneezy

i hope i didn't catch anything at Walmart yesterday.  took 2 hours standing in line to pay the bill and waiting for the vaccination record.  i woke up sneezing and congested.  i'm eating allergy plant.  and now i'm hungry.  egg bites.

i checked lucky's, free yachak energy drink.  can't return sunny spot yet.  'til 12 days done.

i confused 'mac and me' 1988 with 'labou' 2008.  similar goofy looking creatures.  totally different story lines.  jara lane, bobby caldwell singers.  mysterious alien creature.  

lunch ok.  i finally figured out why people like me and my family hated me.  i'm happy.  men want my happiness.  my family hated me.  they were too busy hating me to be happy themselves.  not my problem.  dan romania sat next to me reading wall street journal.  i asked his work occupation: carpenter.  how do you earn 100k as a carpenter?  diane moved in real quick.  after lunch sprouts peach pie and 99 cent shredded red cabbage for sweet sour.  dried my hair at main feet up.  found hirano picture book.  i want to send to hawaii.  i asked justin pham he got back to me so fast e mail link.

my life isn't perfect

but it's way better than it was.  at senior lunch Toki told me Helen is one of our angels.  someone from L A told Trudy.  like when Kyochan Amy died in LA and Kuni Ann wrote from Hawaii.  The convoluted Japanese way.  

i couldn't sleep last night and cooked the turkey thigh then used the juice to cook potatoes and onions.  up and awake 'til midnight.  

decided i didn't need free xmas deodorant 24 hour saw ginnie from seniors.  not talking with her daughter like me and alien.  same personality clash.  i decided i don't have to be the bigger person.  i don't have to be perfect only the best me i can be.

lunch fred, mike, eddie, new guy, then toki and sue.  i left left overs.  i have so much better i cooked and bought clearance.  stored potatoes and cooked 3 carrots with onions.  so good i ate all with cornbread.  cooked pasta in corning ware covered with parchment paper best way.

after lunch went to return overdue, 'chinatown' ready.  then at checkout 'barbie' ready too.  waiting for back room retrieval i found 3 more movies i wanted.  woo hoo!!  lucky me!

i decided i'm stewing the turkey thigh.  i was going to roast but doesn't appeal to me.  so micro stew it is.  diced tomatoes?

bed rest napped 'til 4 pm cut up baked chicken and put away food.  40 minutes then back to resting.  i was so used to bullying and forced labor i never noticed.  

i was in hell most of my life 11/23/23 mustard chicken

heaven is great!  i'm relaxing.  nowhere i have to be.  no one is demanding or criticizing me.  

jane thanked me in front of everyone for connecting her to the mexican chocolate she wanted from the market deli.  i've never felt so warm and appreciated before.  she did all the leg work, i just told her the solution and she did it.  my family and familiars demanded i fulfill all their desires without appreciation or thanks or even acknowledgment.  like the genie/slave of the lamp.  i gave them the safety and security of a friendly world.  from 8 years old i raised them all.  and all they did was sabotage my life to keep me enslaved.  old, antiquated effective behavioral model.

the subliminal recordings on you tube are working.  i'm choosing people who respect, appreciate and acknowledge me.  yay! me!  

baked chicken sliced thick part coated with spicy mustard 400 o half hour.

thinking of jfk assassination 1963

60 years ago.  the trauma of the first person i cared about murdered and the tv live coverage.  they covered it all day and for weeks after.  and the speculation the mob arranged his murder because of marilyn monroe and all his affairs.  and her suicide then rumors bobby kennedy had an affair with her and was assassinated.  

with my family suicide, betrayal, drama history the kennedys mirrored the all american family.

Tuesday, November 21, 2023

bed rest 2:30

i'm learning how to successfully process mom's suicide.  the family tradition of denial and torture never worked.

on the edge

rest now to recharge.   i'm watching 'men in black' 1997.  dad was on the edge and mom was dealing with his decline and i was holding everything and everyone together.  

it's so different to listen to my body and put my health first.  shivers my timbers.  today i'm processing mom suicide trauma.  glad i have nicotine lozenges to make myself calmer more comfortable.  i ate cheese omelet at 6 now 10 am i want supplements and faux crab lettuce mix.  i'm feeling a little anxiety.  my usual distraction is doing.  like workaholics running from uncomfortable emotions.  can't feel or think while doing.  

living consciously takes mental and emotional discipline.  food, drugs, alcohol and emotional avoidance.  food takes the most discipline.  you got to eat to stay alive.  hence eating disorders.  

'men in black' marathon 1997, 2002, i never watched 2012.  huh.  

sunny library noon book sale hours.  i used coupon for an immense bag of movies.  i returned movies and tried link + 'pain free' none in system and she didn't give me attitude like guys.  home by 2.  tired with another big bag of movies.

lots of left overs for b'fast

 my favorite.  i love not cooking.  after a lifetime cooking, cleaning, shopping i'm done.  

watched mike birbiglia comedy mostly because of his name.  from book mobile.  a story teller.  finely crafted.  a lot of work.  

my body chemistry continues to adapt.  i've been thinking a lot about tina turner.  she had high blood pressure that destroyed her kidneys over time.  she worked out hard maybe it was the massive performances.  too hard.  too much stress.  when i found out about type A and type B people i decided to be a type A applying myself to become a type B.   i know you can easily lose 10-15 lbs sweating performing.  maybe too much too quickly.  she always looked healthy and strong.  maybe elvis presley too.  but his heart.

lots to do this weekend.  no wonder i feel tired.  i used to feel numb.  lucky freebie pick up snack and choc.  swam and finished puzzle.  toki not feeling well.  hope she's better for eye op 12/6.  bingo i won pink 2 x sweatshirt tissues in pockets.  sunny library picked up spot checked needed charge and 'pain free' disc tried to play cracked.  take back sun day book sale.

i forgot to take supplements, double today-FATIMA donates salads

definite shift in energy.  i do insist on testing myself.  good quiet swim.  not too many people.  hilde kept so much lunch left overs she gave me one.  everyone is tired and left i stayed to keep salome company.  they call her salami or shalimar.  

feeling ok i did one 3 load wash.  nice afternoon.  hung laundry, in bed resting by 2:30.  watched 'detectorists' 2022.  i don't find incompetent failures the least bit funny.  3 stooges is based on dumb humor.  i can see in advance the failure coming like a slow freight train going off a cliff.  like my parents based on their history and my sisters following the family tradition.  stupidity is everywhere for free.

healer's prayer course in miracles p. 24

i need not worry.  it's just a huge bad habit.

so walter came by and i got to counsel myself.  if i can save him some suffering 

Tuesday, November 14, 2023

well, that was weird

i lost all settings and blog malfunctioned.  headings changed to all pink from blue.  reset you tube queue.  oh, well.  i knew it was weird at lunch when lee came over and talked about his phone and asked about chrome.  then lhosa came and sat.  weird vultures.  energy has shifted.  i've researched 54 pages of 'pain free' re balancing muscles to heal, reset functioning body.

home by 3 veg lunch and bed napped 'til 5 dinner and 'wheel'.  next healing marathon 'everybody loves raymond' from county.  i've finally accepted i require more rest to heal.

i'm committed to healing myself above all else.  by healing myself i raise the energy of the planet.  i'll keep on keeping on.

my heart is aching

bewitched 1964-72.  3rd rock 1996-2001.  i'm healing segments of my life.  i was on my own free from family 1989-1972.  17 years of freedom exorcising the demons.   demons make life hell.  

they used dad's cancer to talk me into moving back into slavery and i did it probably out of guilt.  i'm weeding my inner garden of the seeds of self destruction.  so i'm sleeping and clearing, changing the energy.  

lunch was mediocre, good company eddie, toki, diane.  finished the puzzle and francine visited.  then i went merry for deposit and sprouts double crust cherry pie, $10 clearance 2 spray, 4 roll-on scents, blueberry peanut butter, 2 drink mixes.  

Sunday, November 12, 2023

i want out

i need something different.  my body is continuing to detox.  i'm feeling so uncomfortable.  i feel creepy crawly on the inside.   my back is screaming.

i figured out from watching 3rd rock 1996-2001.  5/28/98 phil and brynn hartman murder/suicide my sadness is something joyful with real life tragedy.  i've realized and accepted for the first time the connection to my mother threatening murder and suicide.  my family tradition of suicide and alcoholism.  my older sister insisting she deserved the abuse and my younger sister denying our childhood ever happened.  denial=dis-ease.  i moved back in 1989 due to dad's prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment.  all 4 grandparents had cancer so i understood my parents fear.  

i can't heal it 'til i feel it.  

that's the exhaustion.  the weakness and sleeping from processing the chemical traumas stored in my body as memories.  i keep forgetting the validity of my feelings.  i've been taught i don't matter.  i have to keep reminding myself i'm important.  

Saturday, November 11, 2023

my dreams of sadness

another layer exposed like growth rings in a tree or layers of an onion.  9 am i showered and swam then st just.  no meat.  lots of veg.  

i rested there too.  11 am i rested at main, hot spot stopped working tech support turned it off and on, started working again.  as simple as that.  i don't have to pick up at sunny yet.  m i b was supposed to be on tv but i can't find it.  maybe tomorrow?  

Friday, November 10, 2023

left 9:30 back 11

i went lucky and decided I wanted Jr. burger king w/fries for lunch w/salad mix.  A delicious lunch.  i redeemed monopoly tickets and free soda.  and i'm resting, digesting lunch.  i'm not rushing around cramming as much as i can into every minute.   a new conscious thoughtful me.  i feel guilty of not suffering.  my family tortured me so much.  i numbed out to survive their torture.  

war against one's self is dis-ease.  peace is health.  i choose health.

i worry about everything.  i know how pain filled life can be.  i have so much compassion for walter.  

Thursday, November 9, 2023

everyone's getting sick.

eddies's having hard times.  asked me to leave him alone.  ok.  dino was sick last week.   toki brought me 4 blueberry muffins.  if not for toki i'd take the month off.  i deserve a break.  old faithful me.  

last week i felt terrible, sad, tired, no energy.  this week 100% better.  senior closed tomorrow sunny opens late.  freedom.  

Wednesday, November 8, 2023

sitting seniors feeling silly

masking is required again.  not just me sick.  toki said many sick.  

jane, eddie, susan and toki excellent company.  lunch ok not good enough for seconds.  i went to main return overdue i picked up 2 wrong books.  

Tuesday, November 7, 2023

i don't want to do anything

i'm watching 'very bad things' 1998 terrific waste of money.  so many good actors in a mean spirited movie.  i'm obsessed with understanding.

two weeks since flu and covid shots 10/23/23

i'm finally better.  i cancelled lunch 2 days.  too boring.  i want a better life.  i showered at 24, considered b king.  at 11 am 2/$5 jr bacon swiss very salty.  

drove to toy parts google directions good.  bought 2 keys $134 extra $20 to cut and more extra to program in service department separate appointment only.  next used car i'll get factory key at dealer.  another strike mag toy palo alto.  i called rescue Ron, his daughter Paulina appointment 2-4 i'm excited.  new behavior.  as exciting as the tow truck ride jan.  that i waited 2 hours.  i feel like a puppy.  3:30 pm i'm not so excited.  i'd hoped to get it done early and go to sunny, oh well tomorrow.  i called Paulina 4:30 she arrived 5 done half hour lovely person.  she charged me $125 just for key program free trunk lock fix i wrote $150 for excellent service.  

Sunday, November 5, 2023

covid tested neg

quite a procedure.  so many steps and cautions.  i'm feeling a little better.

epiphany- i've been making my life harder.  my family trained me to suffer abuse and humiliation.  1999 i asked mom why she 's so mean to me she said to toughen me.  i don't need for life to be harder.  it's tough enough.  she treated my sisters so good.  mom and dad taught them to abuse, humiliate and steal from me.  i chose people to make my life miserable.  my family tradition.  what was familiar.  what i was used to, comfortable with.

i can force myself to chase after free stuff pushing myself beyond my limits or relax and let heaven come to me.  

my sisters hated mom and transferred that hatred to me.  they never used to notice me.  no matter what mom did they hated her and she knew it.  

confirmation-8:30 i put out garbage and recycle bins, 8:45 drove to cost co, filled tank 'though website said closed 8 pm.  home 9 pm 70 degree weather.  amazing i feel ok.  

Friday, November 3, 2023

jujubes

i went out to the car 9:30 am to see how i felt.  still too tired.  i loaded free lucky's 5-8 oz processed cheese.  not worth forcing myself.  i brought in drinking water.  i ate jujubes chinese granny gave me last friday at seniors.  full of c and fiber.  sat in trunk all week.  

when i have the energy i want to fill my car with gasoline and buy 2 car key copies.  simple things make me happy.  i toasted a split croissant and topped with hummus.  i have my appetite back.  i haven't felt hungry for over a week.  i ate out of habit.  

i just remembered 2003.  i went to emergency twice.  i had surgery, had to hire an attorney, shawn parr, to stop my sisters harassing me with threats of physical eviction.  no one to stand up for me.  no wonder i'm still depressed.  

Thursday, November 2, 2023

i need new motivation

i've felt depressed my entire life.  last thursday i drove everywhere meeting deadlines and made myself sick.  my family drove me with abuse and torture.  they humiliated me in front of others and terrorized people me included.  

my motivation in life was avoiding pain not creating joy.  i want health and happiness.  i kept trying to make others happy in hopes they'd reciprocate.  toki's the only one.  she called 6 pm to ask if i needed anything.

i need a new focus for living.  

Wednesday, November 1, 2023

toki brought me senior lunch left overs

i haven't been hungry for over a week.  pasta and salad like always.  toki called to let me know gerde died over the weekend.  i wasn't surprised just a little envious.  i'm calling on her help.  she was so tired.  she's no longer tired.  

Tuesday, October 31, 2023

cathy called got card today.

she called and thanked me.  her sister is needing her more.  she paid her niece's plane fare for her visit from chicago.   makes her feel good.  i'm happiest when we're all happy.  

Monday, October 30, 2023

new behaviors

i'm watching 'bewitched'.  this morning was 47 degrees too cold for me.  i cooked and ate burger and felt so cold i called cancelled lunch at 9 am and called toki so she wouldn't worry.  i slept taking c and cold meds.  

i checked nob hill if i want anything.  thought about gas at costco.  nothing, no one more important than my health.  i finally get it.  i'm finally living it.

toki left comics, doz croissants, 2 cans chick broth on porch.  she called just after i wrestled front door picking them up.  

Sunday, October 29, 2023

still feeling sick

i haven't been sick in a long time.  it's depressing to feel sick.  i think it's my lungs detoxing from a lifetime of smoking.  i quit 2019/2020.  my sinuses detoxing too.  

i miss the world of clean air, food and water.  

what will happen to people forced to adapt to such conditions.  adapt or die.  

Saturday, October 28, 2023

good night's sleep

makes all the difference.  i'm still feverish taking c and willow.  the 7 year old dollar tree cough and cold meds working well.  

checking toyota  parts open 7 days 12 hours.  takes pressure off.

resting and relaxing watching cooking and 'arsenic and old lace'.  i watched 'igor' for the hundredth time.  still a perfect movie.  

Friday, October 27, 2023

major post nasal drip

not surprised i got sick.  it's been a long time.  they keep the senior center very warm.  the colder outside the warmer inside and vice versa.  

i had a massive nose bleed from a sinus infection.  i'm taking dollar tree 7 year old med.  still works.  

Thursday, October 26, 2023

i'm feeling terrible

could be the rain.  i keep reminding myself i'm better.  feeling sad is a step above numb.  my stomach upset.  i've been here many times before never gets easier.

i made it to seniors.  puzzled 'til i felt strong enough to swim.  two too loud males in tub i swam in warm pool 'til they quieted.  puzzled 'til lunch.  feeling so tired.  i finished owl puzzle and went to lucky's prune for clearance.  bought $5 white hoodie 3 tickets and lady ahead of me gave me 24, one instant winner and 3 board pieces.  i felt so empowered i continued on to nob hill 4 clearance coconut water, 3 salad dressings, salad mix, grass fed beef, used $5 coupon.  ate salad and tuna.  i'm loving salad.

Saturday, October 21, 2023

Friday, October 20, 2023

i feel like a rebel

i've never had such freedom.  i changed settings display size.  diana asked me how to dim her smart phone screen.  i don't know how i told her go to settings choose display and talk to inge who owns a smart phone.  library gives classes.  so i went into chrome settings increased size and totally new graphics showed up.  i'm loving it.  changed my phone display after calling cathy thanks for halloween card and stickers.

i remembered fry day freebies at 7 am went to lucky's, loaded caffeine sparkling ice.  tried to buy sale candy like last week no go 2 week time element.  oh, well.  6 monopoly tickets.  3 times tickets 'til 31 end.  i'm still resting from wed too much exercise.  my back and arms not loving me today.  nu-step arms and legs work out.  

i went to store for salad found 2 sale dressings.  delicious.  updated chrome.  

Thursday, October 19, 2023

93 today moderate=bad air

5:30 even worse air.  i stayed seniors 'til 2:30 90 degrees to main library 'til 6:30 dropped off veg,beans, rice and picked up jellied cranberry, mustard, grill sauce.  i'm having more fun doing what i want.  

Wednesday, October 18, 2023

90 degree day

Tuesday, October 17, 2023

i couldn't reward myself

no cream pie or pot salad so i cooked potatoes in sun day chicken fat.  i bought lettuce salad mix $1.98 at nob hill.  and entire complex is wired.  

i am poised for victory.  wheel.

and tonight potatoes chicken in thai dressing on lettuce.  

Monday, October 16, 2023

called quest and citibank

taking care of business.  healthcare is big business.  i called lisa quest diagnostics re fit kit she said computer generated cards wait 3 weeks.  they pay $75 to get mammogram but so much work.

i called citibank customer service for rewards check ignored online instructions.  too much work to register then sign in, forget it.  not worth $29.  beth said 7-10 business days for duplicate.  i don't know or care really i'm doing due diligence.  

do i want nob hill choc cream pie and mustard potato salad?  i can check for wi-fi.  

i feel so much better wearing glasses and no eye strain.  i'm not as tired.  and my back continues to change.  

Saturday, October 14, 2023

eclipse

it's perfectly still as if the world is in awe.  no noises, everything muffled.  animals asleep.  darker, cooler.

i picked up 2 viewers from park side door of library.  printed w/ today's date and next total eclipse 4/8/24.  i watched 8:50-9:50 from seniors parking lot.  i swam brian in tub 10:30.  i waited 'til 11:10 no idea why 'til toki arrived.  i'll give her eclipse glasses later.  considered brian, nah.  i was hungry went to st just no Charity next 2 weeks so i picked up pantry groceries and asked for sandwich, whole grain creamy cheese and deli chicken.  best ever usually boring white.  3 toaster b'fast minis my 3 pm snack.  i'm a happy baby.  

i love my 2 books.  audrey, and paul newman.  so different and engaging.  coming home i was feeling let down depressed.  heart failure is from sadness loneliness.  attaining goals are a let down.  need fresh goals.  

Friday, October 13, 2023

got my spot

took 2 hours waiting for the shady spot.  i paid discover making sure to cover life check.  

i get to process feeling old family stupid inferior labels.  i didn't enter wheel phrase and 3 pm home from bingo i remembered with the option of rectifying by running to lucky wireless fidelity.  nah.  fresh bingo donuts made everyone a winner.  i had a piece of sprouts' fresh cherry pie bought this morning after picking up free drink and dressing from lucky's.  i was hungry the anxiety went away.  i almost got stuck in elevator.  man and his son helped me descend stairs.  bingo buddies. 

i tried and sprouts has wi fi too.  i wonder about nob hill.  i'll have to check.  i drove to 24 and too late for wheel.  good reminder for fan friday.  

tomorrow partial eclipse show at central park side 8:30.  i'm excited.  

Thursday, October 12, 2023

i remembered

i'm better.  i clipped my keys to my gym case and after 10 minutes i remembered.  i started poker playing dog puzzle.  i swam an hour and back to puzzle.  good chat with cody he wants to be part of my family.  i told him brian my psychic twin and cody looked left out.  i told him he was family too and he was happy.  i found 4 great movies.  ghost and mrs muir, stuber, 

gerde came in early hurrah!  diane came in early and sat with us.  she fell and didn't tell anyone else.  she was visibly shaken.  

i'm remembering to use my left leg while driving my tailbone is on fire.  my left hip is painful.  it's different.  

Wednesday, October 11, 2023

bingo puzzle

1 pm done.  dino likes seeing them.  

driving is absolutely the worst thing for backs.  exercising my left leg is finally freeing up my energy.  it's been 25 long hard years.  taking care of my parents broke my back and nearly killed me.  if it wasn't for my back i would have walked away from everything.  i would have run as fast as possible.  this is as fast as i can go.  my horrible sisters could have had it all but for their apathy and stupidity.  of course i would have remained content with my denial of my hellish existence.  

doctors really know nothing on how backs work.  they only know what hospitals tell them.  unless they live through it they don't know.  

toki got lots of oranges.  today's chimichurri chicken and beans not good.  i added chicken to flavorful soup.  i threw away diana's left overs.  not good.  no one else wanted them either.  toki took cole slaw.   

Tuesday, October 10, 2023

i used disatisfaction w/bartolo to motivate me

i went seniors early so i puzzled 'til 8 to calm me and get me balanced.  I swam an hour and lady asked me if i wanted jujubes i said yes thinking the candy but she gave me a big bag of fruit chinese dates.  i puzzled 'til 11.  went to check in for lunch gerde early good girl.  diana shared lucky's pudding cake with everyone.  i washed fruits shared with everyone.  i love new things.  diana gave me pork chop and spinach.  alex and new lillian gave me lettuce salads and asian cole slaw i gave to toki since i have sprouts salad mix.  

cole slaw had no sesame.  i added oil.  i must have eaten all the seeds.  

Monday, October 9, 2023

perfect 66 deg overcast day-moon day-bad bartolo

sitting sunny vale patio.  i picked up salty sprouts honey ham multi grain sandwich $4.99.  i brought snacks.  heavenly.   

my left side is weak trembling while holding a water bottle.  probably the rose bush and kiwi i trimmed and set out green and garbage bins.  and dealing with front door lock sisters jammed.  i have to use the garage.  

it's always something.  gilda radner.  i wanted salad.  for the first time i went to sprouts it's 50 cents more and doesn't taste chem funny.  sunny bakery specials out afternoon, 3 types of cherry pie i bought no added sugar.  there were turnovers, etc. i was disciplined.  strong.  only 1.

bartolo came after pickup filled bins and left them in driveway too heavy to move.  left a wooden ladder in the middle of the backyard again. 

Saturday, October 7, 2023

sunny patio eating my lunch

8 am too early sprouts specials not out.  clearance substantial satisfying turkey sandwich $3.49.  i did my swim at seniors.  commented on parade of champions.  saw jeanie wearing boot cast left foot ankle.  stopped back at sprouts bought $1.99 muffin assortment and apple turnovers not knowing if toki like jalapeno bread.  blessed gerde and toki stopped home to drop off pastries in expected 94 degree weather.  

sunny vale ok parking 10:30.  ate turkey hungry after exercise.  lovely 84 degree.  3 hours to assemble bingo puzzle.  kids program and later astronaut lecture.  doesn't seem relevant when the planet's burning up.  went out to car for soft boiled eggs re parked car to good shady spot under tree.  woman on puzzle table wearing bike helmet makes me laugh.  the danger of puzzles.  

bewitched series 127 hours.  whew!  audrey hepburn.  looking up her life.  

home 5 pm 91 degrees ok after all day air conditioner.  

Friday, October 6, 2023

i am unlimited

i am.  i forgot mit b'day until talking to cathy at sara lucky's.  she mentioned her mom and showed me her mom is her screen saver on her smart phone.  then i mentioned my mom the queen of denial.  and the family.  she said she was lucky she had good parents so why did her ex marriage implode like mine?  hmm??  if her parents were so good she would have followed their example and chosen better.  well, my mom being a queen of denial makes me a pretty pretty princess.  and without my horrible ex marriage i couldn't have seen the truth.

i'm loving myself.  louise hay was accurate that dis ease is a lack of love.  self love is the toughest when one has no examples.  

Thursday, October 5, 2023

puzzled 2 hoursand after lunch maria gorit-brrr

i'm taking care of myself.  i can do it the best.  i know me.  i'm resting and exercising.  i tubbed late and went to lunch.  my stomach hurting like 1972 at least i know how and why.  i couldn't eat lunch, pork fried rice collard greens broccoli.  i brought 3 boiled eggs, easier to digest.  

today is supposed to hit 93 degrees.  i parked car under main 85 degrees and have my feet up.  hassock available just as i was getting situated.  i love when everything works together.  came at 2 to avoid talker.  

i'm trying to find out about gilbert teller.  penn gillete was on celebrity wheel and sounds like he's dead.  no news on big bang.  he had quad bypass last year.  

Wednesday, October 4, 2023

happy i saw brian class cancelled

we stayed 2 hours talking.  hindu christian interrupted to tell me what to think do and i told him the beauty of america is i get to think do be what i want.  as henry ford said if you think you can or you think you can't you're right.

celebrity wheel is anarchy.

ptsd inherited?

 i swam and figured out ptsd from dad and mom when i quit smoking and mom attempted suicide taking dad's sleeping pills 3 years and it's been 3 years since i quit again.  the body remembers and signals danger.  i'm ok.  my back and neck has been popping and crackling.  i've been afraid of wanting nicotine and smoking again.  i can hardly breathe as is.

dad always got mean when afraid of winter lay off.  no carpenter construction no paycheck.  he took everything out on mom.  mom did the finances.  she banked her salary, we lived on dad's.  she had over 600 k when she died.  

Monday, October 2, 2023

remembering mom and her suicide

the body remembers.  the mind forgets.  3 years after i quit smoking, mom took dad's pills as an act of defiance.  and it's 3 years i quit again.

Saturday, September 30, 2023

i didn't charge chrome since i wasn't using, 1% turned itself off.  first thing 4:30 plugged in.  6 am went to 24 for internet, loaded lucky's free coke 20 oz y 3000.  coke of the future.  if it sells.  i'm happy.  i didn't win bingo i won food lottery.  sophia gave me veg, fruit cups i shared with toki, kept cake and 2 more sandwiches.  alex, salome late.  j susan sat with us.  hilde waited so late with extra no one wanted.  i took patty only, no more meal, not too good.  

ladies asked to sit my table mistake too talkative the whole time.  only good they left early.  older white privileged bitch asked me to watch her cards, no i have enough to do watching my own.  the nerve.  her younger white friend suggested she put some back, no she didn't want to.  big spoiled baby.  

i like no internet.  so quiet.  tomorrow pool.  then i remembered to charge my phone.  looked in car, shirt, bags, finally found it in house catch all bin.

ken jennings ruined jeopardy

i watched half of celebrity, z list people so dumb i couldn't watch.  i waited for celebrity wheel.  ken jennings picks remarkably stupid people i think to feel superior.  he acts like it.  he's provided all the answers so how he feels smart i don't know.  alex trebek was humble not ken.  

pat respects his contestants.  his celebrities tried to win and not compete to be the funniest.  

Wednesday, September 27, 2023

they couldn't love me

they'd have to admit they were broken.  they pretended they were perfect and the rest of the world specifically me was broken.  the price of being here is insanity.  to be otherwise is to risk crucifixion.  

so much left over lunch.  no one liked the cold hard omelet.  too much spinach and cole slaw with egg.  quarter less diners tons thrown away.  weird a piece of bread with jelly no butter.  and the heels left in a bag on menu table.  

                       

Tuesday, September 26, 2023

life is a spiral

 ever moving upward.  seems like we're stuck repeating but we're one rotation above.  

4 pm sunny.  i already picked up cup and it wouldn't check out i asked they clean the disc took a few looked like new.  found 2 possible puzzles for seniors.  funny i don't mind turning in spot.  i used to feel deprived.  now i just feel it's right.  i don't want to own one.  i scored 4 bookmarks.  2 metal, plastic car hologram, hp raven claw.  tygj.

Monday, September 25, 2023

early start

for years i woke early in pain and couldn't sleep so i'd wait for seniors to open at 7.  i had a hard time walking and needed to be sure i didn't make it more difficult.  i habituated myself then covid came and changed everyone's pattern.  some people reverted to the old behaviors so fires changed more patterns.

happiness is knowing what you need and getting it-onigiri

nothing to do but rest.  games won't play website problem.  free from distractions.  i watched some jackie chan.  i have half a dozen movies.  interesting interview.  he was #1 in china for a long time and coming to hollywood humbled him.  took me 15 minutes looking for shoe supports.  i need all the support i can get.  

i'm cooking everything today.  working in gilroy i cooked sundays for the week, freezing everything.  i'm cooking drums twice not falling off the bone.  i like it very well done.  i'm nuking sweet potato prepped sale 99 cents for 15 0z.  delicious with chick.

must be lack of oxygen

still smoky bad air alert.  i swam at seniors feeling depressed.  exercise best solution.  decided i wanted to checkout sprouts.  great clearance specials.  $12.46 for 2 breads, juice, 2 vinegar chips, hazelnut croissants 2-25 cent singles, bear claws, beets.  

main library closed i went to st just, i needed a smile from the pantry lady.  gloria wanted bell peppers and cantaloupe whew.  everything i'm allergic to.  i kept chips and crackers, eggs, 3 bags of pasta etc.  under library garage parking still closed i came home.

strange pains in my right ear and left hip.  i did a lot of reorganizing.  i cleared 2 reorganized plastic bins for pantry foods.  transferred pocket fabrics to veg box.  took me 15 minutes to open over stuffed kitchen drawer.  whisks jammed.  i slept for 3 hours after a sandwich and chips lunch.  felt stiff but better.

i slept through.

i loaded freebies and weekend coupons.  i kept trying to load them and realized i had to wait for the weekend.  picked up freebies walked store it's all exercise.  seniors 8 am first spot.  good for bingo.  thought of phone forgot to charge, zero shut itself off.  charged everything discovered plug by scales.  lack of oxygen exhausting.  another air alert.  13 messages.

lunch diane monopolized conversation couldn't figure out how to load freebies to her smart phone so i talked her through it.  did she thank me, no.  gloria collusion no loyalty.  eh, it is what it is.  gloria wants her own account her sisters are shutting her out according to her.  maybe because she's disloyal.  sophia brought me 2 sandwiches, 2 vienna sausages, cookies i gave to alex.  beans and rice i'll give back to pantry.  salome likes to make fun of the rubber bands i use for leftovers.  oh, well too good for her.  like diane.

bingo i won first game almost black out for crazy kite.  snack bar $5.  played lots of numbers not right bingo.  annoying woman on puzzle table plays fry bingo.  helped gerde load the walker into her car.  so brave.

coming home early and resting my back helps a lot.  i brought in some water, i'm finally using large wipes to clean my feet.  aloe vitamin e.  cleared space for st just pantry.  i have a lot of water bottles in the trunk.

kintsugi-happy saturn day

japanese idea imperfections and repairs add value.  kits are sold online.  i'm still absorbing the idea pain is beneficial.  

my body is evolving.  my neck is sore finally loosening.  my hips sore making me tired.  draining my energy.  i organized supplements for the week.  so much house keeping.  in between tasks i'm totally relaxing every muscle.  i'm taking little cat naps.

i set out pots for allergy starters.  i need to keep them watered so they root.  

woke up 1:30 hungry pain free.  made p'nut butter cinnamon rolls.  sliced cooked onion.  potato and carrot later to add to soup.  

i'm watching 'everybody loves raymond'.  i needed humor.  my childhood my family all trauma and drama.  healing, repairing uses lots of energy.

free friday

so hungry i'm eating salty tasteless healthy crackers from sprouts.  good thing i'm full after 2 crackers.  no wonder it says doesn't raise sugar level.  can't eat more than 2 without gagging.  i forgot chicken rice in oven.  i ate chicken and scrambled rice with eggs.  mornings i'm not so hungry.  a little fills me up.  i'll save egg rice for brunch.

sidney assumed i was homeless too because i keep so much in my car.  i keep what i don't want the sisters to steal.  if i leave it they'll steal my heart's desire.  i told him i never was welcome, not my home theirs.  i only ever worked here.  most maybe all homeless share this life experience.  never welcome in a home.  any home.  

i loaded free tru blu.  i'm planning my escape.  that gave me the shivers.  i don't know why.  

went to lucky's for free cheddar cheese crackers and bought 2 dozen eggs 99 cents ea.  monopoly ends soon.  took eggs into gym during shower.  home i ate potato omelet.

found missing peach in fridge. dad's 24th year

unfortunately no good.  i still have 3 ripening in trunk.  finally ate omelet.  organic egg heavy and tasteless.  stomach iffy.  lots of grape c.  

still debating which library.  playing mahjong board jumping.  so annoying.  i could go tomorrow.

wearing tight jeans reminds me the years of support hose after 1972 fall hurt my spine.  holding me together.  i wore girdle too.  x quit his job no discussion just announced it.  so i had to get extra hours.  more torture besides a loveless marriage.  

9:18 sitting in front of sunny waiting to open.  aha, i can puzzle my own at central.   i drove onto monroe and traffic to costco too intense.  i still have over quarter tank.  

i never used to like sitting or walking.  i never knew i could be comfortable like wearing shoes.  mom only bought me one pair a year so my feet hurt shoes never fitting.  no wonder i hated being alive.  i was in constant pain and suffering.  my mom punished me if i complained so i have a problem with that too.  

i'm watching asian wife hand book from her bag to husband like he's a child can't manage to carry his own book to return on his own.  wow.  me and every relationship.  it's what mom knew too.  and she lamented she couldn't have nice things.  description online of their behavior called quiet cutting-subtle undermining.  they made me feel like nothing.  i had no self-esteem.  none. zero.  zip.

something not right-making it right-wow

i'll try a new page.  i still can't decide on what i want for lunch.  nothing is appealing to me.  the page is malfunctioning.  ergo new page.  every problem has a solution.  

i'm not hungry.  i've been trying to figure on lunch.  it's 1:45 pm.  

i've been thinking about when i lived cup via vico.  just before sacrificing my life for the family.  brrrr....

brilliant idea of making protein caffeine in small bottles for quickie boost.  lunch problem solved.  keep dry protein powder and add liquid.  

epiphany-sitting here being i realize how much i hated the phone because of the family always demanding, checking up, harassing.  not the phones' fault.

93 degrees 4 pm it should be cooling it's getting hotter.  the breeze has been steady.  2 degrees cooler home.
