13: Still Adding a Little Zing Tuesday, November 13, 2012



The US Capitol Building from the South walkway….with the 9/11 fences to keep everyone off the grass.


Little things tell me that G’s recovering. There’s more pep in his voice, and more engagement in life too. He didn’t ask for his corn as often, and once he actually laughed. You bet I am grateful.

Because of this, I felt free to participate in life a bit too. I was trying to get the living room “red” instead of “blue” by the time next visitors were scheduled, but I too have only so much pazazz these days. I did get art chosen, and most of the old stuff down. On the way upstairs from the doctor’s, he carried some of it up….for which I am very grateful. Small projects can certainly grow into big ones with almost no effort at all.

Today my goal is to finish warming up the living room for the winter months and start on a small album of the Washington DC trip. Small is the operant word here.




  • Keeping those on the east coast in my thoughts.

  • Himself: The doc says the pressure is up only a little in his eye, he was pleased, and G was to continue using the drops and come in next in January.

  • Herself: Was able to pool, grocery shop and run errands. Finished with the Ancestry.com site and unsubbed. Closed my second Blogger blog too.

  • Reading: A new Tad Williams. Powerful characters.

  • Balance: Falling asleep over the TV last night. I’m really getting good at the head bobbing stuff.





Poor, poor G. So frustrating. [Sobernt] 11/13/2012 9:58:50 AM

Pazazz? Zing? What in the world? My get-up-and-go got-up-and-went years ago. Plugging is more me these days. [aunty EM (2)] 11/13/2012 10:27:22 AM

So could one presume it will be a red Christmas tree?? [zipster] 11/13/2012 10:56:25 AM
Very glad G laughed! And didn't ask for corn! Being liberated from caregiving is equally as appreciated.
Hope it's a good day for both of you! [TickTockTickTock]

good to hear laughter when someone has been feeling so bad. May the improvement continue. hugs p [Gypsy Spirit] 11/13/2012 4:19:20 PM
I'm glad G is feeling a bit better. Hope that trend continues. :) [The Rickster] 11/13/2012 4:44:24 PM
Laughter, pep and engagement....such nice things!  [Tornado] 11/13/2012 4:56:21 PM
So glad G is in good spirits. Take care of yourself too. [TrilliumZen] 11/13/2012 10:03:56 PM
Glad the Geez is on the mend. [Jeanne] 11/13/2012 11:09:39 PM
my mother had winter arrangements of furniture and summer arrangements for the same furniture...people thought she was nuts moving around furniture. Our house is so small the only way you can move furniture is to build on to the house...which we've done///Kay  11/14/2012 12:10:38 AM
Good news on G! And turning the heat up in your living room doesn't have to be done all at once... [seedys] 11/14/2012 12:37:57 AM
Hoping he will awaken even better today! You are doing good with all your "plugging along." :) [Beesknees] 11/14/2012 7:07:09 AM
Great news that G is progressing, and that his doctor has no real concerns about his eye. [Arbi] 11/14/2012 3:09:21 PM
I used to rearrange my furniture when the seasons changed but there's no way to do that where I live now. [gel] 11/15/2012 12:09:44 AM
May I ask why you unsubbed from the Ancestry.com??? I did as well, but I just didn't have the time nor commitment to work it to the level where it was worth what it was costing me. :/ [Tehachap] 11/15/2012 2:35:13 PM
