Having Good Luck, It Could Have Been Worse
I wish I was creative. I wish I had a better imagination. I wish I was a good story-teller. Sadly, I'm more like brain-dead. I don't know if it's my medication or what. When I go to type up an entry my mind goes blank. As I imagine you're tired of reading about snow and my cluttered house, I'm tired of writing about snow and my cluttered house. The unfortunate truth is, that's all there is in my life lately, snow and my cluttered house. In fact, it's snowing again this morning. But on the bright side, I have a lady coming here sometime this morning from Freecycle to pick up 2 garbage bags of Little R's clothes, yay. Yesterday a lady came and picked up an old scanner. The thing had no cables with it or anything, just a scanner. I don't even know where it came from in the first place. I have another old scanner to get rid of too, but I actually bought this one and it has cables and CDs with it. It's a good one and I'd rather try to sell it than just give it away. If I can't sell it in the spring then I'll Freecycle it.
Our luck may be turning around. Mr. Man and I both got scratch tickets in our Christmas stockings and Mr. Man actually won $25 on one. Recently he got 5 out of 7 numbers on a Super 7 ticket and won $100. You would think for 5 numbers he would get more than that, but that is the nature of the beast. $100 is probably the most he's ever won. So feeling pretty lucky here.
Last night Mr. Man was late getting home from work. He walked in saying "I need a ride and some pantyhose. Oh and grab the scissors too. Come along wife." The fan belt on the truck broke and he broke down. He tried calling here, but because we're on dial-up he couldn't get through, so he ended up calling SW and she went to pick him up and brought him home. With our recent good luck it happened fairly close, only a couple of miles from home. So off we went to replace the fan belt with pantyhose. It worked briefly. Long enough to get him a mile closer to home. We ended up just parking the truck at the school down the road. He'll go fix it properly today. We may have to take shovels with us though, because the snow has been coming down pretty good all morning. He keeps telling me how happy he is with the performance of the truck. These things are bound to happen after it sat unused for a couple of years. All things considered, it's doing well.
I went to see my doctor last Wednesday because I needed a new prescription for my miracle pills. The original prescription was good for a year or so. Then I ran out of pills and when I went to get more I found out the scrip was finished. So we talked, and I told him how I've been so depressed for the longest time. He decided to up the dosage on the miracle pills. When I first started taking them a year ago I noticed the difference right away. I felt like a million bucks. But gradually the effects seemed to wear off. Now that I'm taking a higher dose I am feeling a little better. Amazing. I mean really, before the higher dose there is no way in hell I would have gone out and shovelled my car out of that mountain of snow. I've just been doing more the last few days after taking the higher dose, than I had done in months prior. That's not to say I feel like a million bucks, because I don't. But I do feel a little better.
Well, I'm off to do a little blog surfing, then I'm gonna look around to see what else I can scrounge up to post on Freecycle. Have a great day.
