I am finally back to posting after having dental surgery for two extractions and two implants with bone grafts. I'm coming along good but an being very careful. Hope to be through with all this about September.

Yesterday I got up a 5, took meds, had coffee and muffin. Showered at 7, dessed, teeth , hair and make-up. Had another cup of coffee while watching bird clean-up at the coast. Takes an hour or more per bird. Left at 9am to pick up Betty for AARP. Mike at AARP told me that Jo Grimes was in the hospital. The program was Benbrook Policeman on Scams and Idenity Theft. Got home around 12:30 after stopping for gasoline. We had a good lunch but I didn't eat much due to my tooth problem. I called Mary Beard to see if she knew about Jo and she didn't. I then called Jo's house and her son David answered and said Jo was home and got her on the phone. She said she became dizzy at Target while checking out and couldn't focus so called Care Keepers and Amy came and took her to hospital - then called David who lives in Longview.
They ran tests and couldn't find anything and said it could be a TIA. She stayed overnight. My land line was not working. I called Betty and Mary to report about Jo. Called Louise Brogoitti to tell her to call my cell phone so she came by. We had coffee and cookies. I ate yogurt and went to bed. My phone came on around 7pm.

Today I didn't get up until 6am. I really slept good. Took meds, ate muffin and coffee. Already hot and humid out. I went to the bank, then bought June S. a birthday card. Had to come home to check address then went to mail box to insure arrival by Tuesday. Headed for grocery store and got a parking place close. Bought stuff to make lemon cheesecake pie but couldn't find a gram cracker crust so will have to make one. Bought zuccinii to make soup - my favorite. On to Brams for yogurt, milk and always buy more than on my list. As I drove in the AT&T guy came over and said he would have my phone working in a few minutes. It was dead again this morning. He came back about an hour later and said it was fixed. He said the wire - somewhere - was braely together and was hard to see the problem but he pulled on it and saw that it barely connected. Good we have cell phones. I talked to Doris Peterson and her roommate - Van - is in the hospital. Had emergency surgery for a pacemaker last night. Doing OK. His pulse was down to 25. Ate a few chicken nuggets for lunch. I'm trying to remember to drink more water. Had pears and cottage cheese for supper. Will probably eat yogurt before going to bed. Not much to watch on TV.
