Journal Entry for December 15, 2008 Mood
Monday, December 15, 2008
December 15th.   Been off line for the weekend.     Saturday was okay until my sciatic nerve decided that it was going to torture me.       Had gone to do some shop for gifts since my mom gave me some cash to go buy some stuff for the boys christmas.(My brothers boys).     I was fine until got back into the car and wham...sciatic nerve decided to ruin my weekend.    Now it got really cold and deeply cold on Sunday and today is also like an icebox door open!     I  am getting some sharp jabbing pain down left leg.   Limping is more like it when this happens to me I walk like an injury has occured to my leg.    Now my left foot is getting to the action also.    I think the cold temps and weather have alot to do with how rotten I feel.     We put up a small 3ft tree and my moms Nactiviy Set or Manger scene if you prefer.    It came out okay nothing fancy now.    All done on a budget see.    All the gifts were from the Family Dollar store now cause its less expensive on certain items for sure.    I dont know if I will be able to make it to my apt for an interveiw with Social Security for my ssi  application.   When I get like this I dont do much traveling cause of the pain.    I might have to reschudule my appointment.   Wish that they could do the interview over the phone.   I remembered that they did do that for me once.    We shall see.   My brother went to Denver to get a job.   He got one at Target warehouse.   It is a temp kind of Job but it will pay his rent for sure.    Now after they let him go I dont know what he will do.     His woman hates him for leaving.    She acts like he left her forever.   I know my brother will go back to her.    He and she have a love/hate type thing going on now for 13 yrs.     Personally Id love him to find some other lady.   One who is kind and loving not rude and crude like the one who is his squeeze now.     Amazing thing happened when I was shoping with my sister.   My Mom says some relatives who are grandson of my moms cousin from Jareaz came to visit with her.   They came asking about my mom and my grandfather.   My moms father has been gone a long time.    But it was nice to see my mom happy to revisit with relatives from my grandfathers side of family.    My grandfather worked for the Santa Fe railroad for like 36 yrs.     He lived to be 92 yrs old.    He was blind in one eye and deaf for sure when he got a lung infection that affected his heart.    Gosh I hope I dont live to be 92 like him that is a really long life.   My grandfather use to tell me stories and I use to help him in his large garden in our backyard.    Boy those were good times!  I loved getting my hands all dirty in the garden.    Now bending to put my shoes on hurts.    We did get a bit more snow out of this system that came from the north.   But it was less than one inch.    Its suppose to stay cold all week.    Wow I miss the warmth of spring and summer.    Stay warm and sweet to all my friends.  I wonder what changes will happen to DS  if it got sold to new owners?   Bye for now all!
