GM it’s -7 actual temp outside. Actual 25-29 degrees would be nice.

Actually it just got delivered. All went in easy. Sturdy and firmly in place. I’ll run it after we load it, should be good. Odd update from Amazon and then it delivered. Idk.

So my dishwasher parts. I didn’t realize a piece was missing. (One of the kids probably threw it out) so I ordered just the arm. Up around 6 am or so Wednesday trying to fix it. But, had to return it and order all the pieces. Just got notified it’ll be here tomorrow from Amazon. Delayed. The paper plates will arrive, but have to wait till tomorrow to fix the dishwasher. My ring. Tik tok purchase. A witches knot. I am NOT a witch but, do prescribe to me Gaelic heritage. It wasn’t expensive but oh so necessary. I saw it, said yes, saw it 3 times. Chose the same one. I really like it.

Im so upset, Emmy is upset. So hard to be poor and black. Her student is trying so hard. $ fixes stuff and makes it easier. @jack this is heartbreaking. They don’t live far from me or Emily and Brandon. I can’t help without $. Crying.

No glaucoma, no diabetic eyes which is good because I don’t have diabetes. I have above average thickness of my corneas which can lead to higher pressures. No harm in having this at all. Just me dna. Monster truck tire is harder than a bicycle tire. Go back in 6 months- we follow an every 6 months until we go to once a year. It’s so easy, not hard and glad it’s done.

Corneal thickness and optic nerve photos. Very cool. I’m waiting for the Dr to come in and explain.

My eye pressures are 28/29 I have no headaches etc. I’m waiting for dilation. He’s really nice. They are screening me for Glaucoma- no family history here from Michigan. - it’s related to This trauma drama needing ankle tissue repair and no good pain medication management. I’ll know more, they’re going to take pictures. We have a baseline and as we do stuff with my leg, ankle,foot we will see improvement in pressures. All these disconnected Dr training practices need to be connected #themedicalalgorithim @jack orthopedic nerve perm damage from lack of repair and how my nervous system is responding. It sucks. I was writing something in this new elope earlier. The recliner from the living room has storage. Keep me pizza pencil/pen etc box in there. Get home. It’s been a busy week. Ben does not have psoriasis- was misdiagnosed- got a scalp biopsy yesterday. Go back in 2 weeks.c Abby gets seen for minor acne. Emily had horrifying acne at Abby’s age. Anyway…. Doing the day.

GM. My staff and I are getting along. Let’s give him a name. My staff is now named…. Honour. He is sturdy and strong, guiding weight bearing with some relief. 😁☺️🥰. Thank you Honour for being next to me. The hurry cane needs to go to the garbage. The cane is for balance. I need weight bearing relief.

Oh really? Michigan is NOT going to be a State that is going to stop sting operations on pedophiles, traffickers etc. Get the list and blow this up. It was not entrapment , he went. Get the list. Period. I’m sick and tired of people washing away the victims and criminals having the rights that they took from the victims the created.

Mall trip. Abby got her bday present. A Carhartt zip up jacket. We got pretzels. I’d love these for ice fishing. Saw a shanty I’d buy in a heartbeat 600+ bucks but it is an Eskimo. Cool walleye. Home and Abby also got some wire and some beads to make rings she saw. She had a good day so did the rest of us. Time to watch Wrath of Man again and stay off my left leg for awhile.

He quit texting. The kids’ dad can get crabby. He forgot the divorce agreement arrangement. To be honest, all these years I could claimed all 5 of them. I stuck to our agreement. They’ve never spent a whole week with him. Just shy of a week, some of them. Luke stayed over there but he was over 18. The divorce agreement included him having them for 6 weeks each summer, didn’t pay the time to me but he never did that. I have the chance to do a child support review. I haven’t all these years. I think I just might. Period.

He’s giving me a problem. Besides - they are with me most of the year. And odd years I get 3. He just texted whatever again.

Abby’s bday is literally today. Officially 15! Her bday drink. Ben has some stomach issues, medication causing it. I’ll get him something later but Sean and I are getting one as well. 1/27/2026. She was 11.5 pound and 23.75 inches long. Worth every bit of it. She’s amazing and testy and yells at her brothers but we love her. She was mopping at like 7:15.

Alex Pretti was executed. No question. When we have a country that is Mexico and has billions of dollars and their citizens are “escaping” for a “better” life to the USA. The USA must address how Mexico is using its funds. Mexico may be acting like they have the upper hand because we purchase so much of their food. How bout boycotting so their citizens can have better infrastructure, safety, education. No we just keep buying their peppers. Can we not grow our own? Yes. We can. Look at Mexico and see if they are laughing at the USA and all the citizens of the USA at each other’s throats.

So true.

Tasty.

Cookie has an eyelash or something stuck in her left eye. Just gave her a bath, used a warm washcloth to wash it. She was freezing her paws off, had to wrap her up in a dry reel and me star wars blanket. She’s still shivering a little bit. I’ll need to hang her in the grooming bag and use my headlamp to see what’s up with her eye. Pieces of fuzz, idk. Her and Dolly and Coco wrestle around.

😂😂😂. The bday song from Abby’s bday cheesecake. It was singing in the garbage and now at the road. You’re supposed to cut the line I guess.

So, my neighbor lent me the electric shovel. Battery pack. Leg saver. I seriously say this. The end of the driveway got plowed in. I had to go get gas. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I load the speedway fuel card to get an extra 5 cents off. So I parked close and went in and then pulled to a pump so I didn’t have to gimp. Well it wouldn’t load the prepay so I had to gimp across and go inside then I found out the pumps are t taking the pre pay 🤦🏻‍♀️ so I had to gimp back n forth. Drives my gas cover. I have a little lever inside to open and that damn thing only works when it wants to. I’ve used wd40 etc. even in the summer it has a mind of its own. Anyway, I decided it and this time two pulls it popped open then I stick the pre pay fuel card just in the cover to get it open so it doesn’t close again. It’s designed so thief’s don’t steal your gas I guess. Anyway.

Happy 15th! Chinese food was good. Called my dad aka Big Pa. He talked to the kids, made them laugh. He’s without power. Ice. Kentucky. My two bros have his generator. 🤦🏻‍♀️. My dad is worried about his pipes freezing. My 2 broa have enough $ to buy their own and give him his. Anyway.
