Hospital

Not one of my favorite days.  I discovered I have cellulitis on my left leg, went into the emergency room and they sent me to the hospital.  I had a way high white blood count and the infection was traveling up my knee, following my knee replacement scar.

11/11

Veterans Day.  We didn't expect there to be many people at the morning coffee as a lot got to the nearby National Cemetery for their Veterans Day ceremony, but there was a good crowd.

We have another nice day, no need for AC.  It was even a little cool this morning!

We ate stuff in our freezer, still plenty to go.  I bought up too much in advance.

Clubhouse cay

After a dark, dreary, cold and humid day yesterday we have a great day today!  We went to the Clubhouse coffee hour, lots of people there.

In the evening it was back to the clubhouse for the first weekly dinner.  This week it was BQ chicken, last time we had it there it was not done and I couldn't eat my chicken but tonight it was fall off the bone done and very good.

Just a day

We went to Walmart and CVS today, didn't need much as we are trying to eat everything in the refrigerator before we leave next week.

Just sat around and read in the afternoon and watched some TV in the evening.  Grilled some brats for dinner as we continue to empty the refrigerator before we leave.

Byby American Pie, drove the chevy to the levee but the levee was dry. The day America died

We went to Tampa today just because we wanted to, not for anything special.  We ate at Sweet Tomatoes, been about 7 months, long time without Sweet Tomatoes.  The we did a little shopping.

In the evening we watched the election returns and it was not a pleasant outcome.  Trump won, looks like Clinton has the popular vote but not the electoral vote.  Like the Trumpsters were saying, get rid of the electoral vote!  I truly don't know how I can stand looking at his orange face for 4 years.  We will see if he holds true to any of his promises or if he creates more chaos than results.  I'm sure Mexico is starting to build the wall today.  Anyway I will be watching along with half of the USA.

Monday and stuff

Cleaned house today and went to coffee at the clubhouse in the middle of the job.  No reason to hurry getting the house clean!

In the afternoon my left arm started hurting, a lot, from my shoulder to my fingers.  My back really hurt and I was cold and then hot over and over.  I just wonder if it was a reaction to my flu shot 4 days ago.  We got the high powered ones so may have been a worse reaction.  I was seriously thinking of taking a oxycodone pill, but stuck to ibuprofen.

Elections one day away, hopefully we will soon know who our next president will be.  A thought that scares me silly.  We voted absentee ballots a couple weeks ago so all we have to do is sit back and watch.  At least the political ads will be over, it seems like it is a contest to see who can go lower in their comments.
