Week Ending 4/11/26

A much easier week…………………………………………………………………..

As always, first the chronology:

4/5/26 – Sunday – Up at 8AM and off to church. Home and picked up things for dinner at Julie’s. Over to their house and had a late dinner. Home, nap, snack for dinner and usual evening routine.

4/6/26 – Monday – Up at 8AM. Over to the accountant and dropped off the tax information. Stopped at Kroger and picked up a prescription. Home and a quick nap. Up, lunch and put on work clothes. Into Taylorsville for work from 12 noon to about 2PM. Home and another little nap. Up and took Kathy to Cattleman’s for dinner. Over and picked up the truck. Home and did some chores in the Morton building. Usual evening routine.

4/7/26 – Tuesday – Up around 8AM. Some chores around the house then out for an appointment with the cardiologist at 1PM. Home and more chores. Dinner and usual evening routine.

4/8/26 – Wednesday – Up at 6AM and into work for circuit court. That lasted till a little before 4PM. Home, dinner and usual evening routine.

4/9/26 – Thursday – Up at 6AM and off to work. My usual 7:30AM to 4PM today. Home, dinner and usual evening routine.

4/10/26 – Friday – Up at 8AM. Some chores, cleaned up and out for my last knee shot at 11AM. After that I had lunch at Arby’s then took a break for some R&R. Home about 3PM, nap, dinner and usual evening routine.

4/11/26 – Saturday – Up at 9AM. Put on outside work clothes and went to the Morton Building. Got out my new chain saw and according to the directions I had to soak the chain in bar oil for 24 hours first. Sot got that going. Put registration stickers on my trailer and motorcycle. Went down for gas to mow the lawn. Inside, rest, dinner and usual evening routine.


Now the specifics:

Last week when making phone calls I made arrangements to get the oil changed in the truck. Just can’t do it a cheaply yourself anymore. So, dropped it off Sunday and got a call it was done on Monday. I stopped by after work on Monday and payed for it. Later after having dinner at Cattleman’s we stopped and picked it up.

Had a visit with my cardiologist this week and all is well. Medication seems to be where it’s suppose to be and wants to see me in another 6 months. Had some blood work done while there and it all came back OK.

I guess the most interesting event was my falling on Thursday evening. I got some new gear at work so I had that, my own stuff and a pullover in my hands. Had my prescription (Bifocal) sun glasses on and when I got through the door from the garage to the house the dogs came to meet me, knocked my coffee mug out of my hands. Like and idiot I leaned over to pick it up and was apparently looking out the bottom of my glass which screwed up my sense of position and I fell flat. Needless to say I was very soar till Saturday.

I had my last knee shot Friday and all seems good. My legs still lack strength but that just requires some exercising and getting out more like I did Saturday.

That’s about all the excitement this week. As always, hope this finds you safe and healthy. Stay that way and I’ll blog at you again next week.
