8:57 AM – M.S.T.   Last night I received some interesting news.  The CNA who used to work for me, and who came here drunk when I was sick (and broke a lamp) was fired by her agency yesterday.  It seems as though she did the same thing over the weekend to someone else she was helping.  I am always sorry to see someone being fired, but at least now the head of this agency knows that I was telling the truth when I made my original complaint with her.   This afternoon I am going to start receiving some physical therapy, which is supposed to help with the pain in my legs.  I will be taking some pain medication before I go for my therapy, so that they can work more freely with me, and without my feeling a lot of pain while they stretch my legs.  I am supposed to get this therapy once or twice a week for six weeks.  If I am still having pain at the end of that time, I am supposed to go back and see the orthopedist again.   My "friend" from across the street came to see me last night.  I am not sure what he wanted, but he seems to be timing his visits so that he will be here right around my dinnertime.  If he is hoping to be invited for some food, he has another think coming because it is not going to happen.   I tried calling my sister twice yesterday, but was unable to reach her.  I wanted to see how things went when she went out to dinner with our cousin from Atlanta, Georgia.  I could have left a voicemail asking her to return my call, but I am now boycotting her voicemail since the recording contains her stupid boyfriend's voice.  I do not like him, and do not want to have anything to do with him.   Quotes for Happiness:   “Happiness is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But if you turn your attention to other things, It comes and sits softly on your shoulder.” Henry David Thoreau
