This is what 66 looks like....Whaddya think? Thanks for all the birthday greetings (and gifts) from friends and family.
I have spent this rainy birthday doing favorite activities indoors such as moving small items from one room to another, reshelving books and cds, crossword puzzles and computer word games, watching birds and squirrels ..........
Indulging in favorite foods....pizza, bagel, burger (from Max's)
M and M's, mmmmm
Looking for best tv shows to fall asleep to.......Big Bang repeats,
Law and Order repeats, Pickers, Storage Wars or Pawn shop repeats.....All old shows......old being the KEY word !!!
I am hoping to do some traveling to visit family and friends, and being as safe and healthy as I can be (super careful when cutting trees and moving rocks). Indulge in not too many risky behaviors.
Grow my own medical marijane. Read an actual book.
LOTS to see and do.
WHATEVER
Happy Holidays to all !! Our family get together was great....calm, happy, fulfilling, (filling!!) loving.....Next year in New York !!!!
Birthday cake for me, Brian, and Sammy
I had a great time in Brooklyn this week with Sammy and Michael.Took the bus from Bethesda, which is easier for me to maneuver than the train stations. Walked up and down the 5 five flights of stairs to Sammy's apartment without a stumble or mishap.
Rode the subway, took a car service when needed. Saw Fiddler.
We went to a local karaoke bar (I had never been to one...you pay for drinks AND $2 a song) A couple of Beatles, a Simon and Garfunkel and I was done !!!
I put PD on hold for 2 and 1/2 days !!!!
Today everything is sore, headache and stomachache, exhaustion, and IT WAS WELL WORTH IT !!!!
On my way to visit family in Brooklyn on the "Gold" Vamoose bus.
Its roomier, a little more $$, BUT
you get "free" newspaper , water and a tote bag.
Its hard to type on the bus so I will keep it short. Sadly I will have to put my initials earrings in storage for the next 4 years....sorry that the prez elect and I share DT....The only thing I have in common with him.

I believe this picture says it all !!!! We had a great time raking leaves, playing dollhouse , pretending space ships, working science
experiments in Jaimes office, bird and squirrel watching.....no wonder we were exhausted .
Jaime (on my laptop) turned me into a cat. She and Lola enjoyed watching the antics of Monkey (especially) and White. And this addresses perfectly PDplusCATS !! And when visiting with the kids my PD almost disappears....no falling, tripping, stumbling....
A great lovely weekend.
I heard that no one received my last post about meds. I will try again. Please let me know (by regular email dianegtunis@gmail.com) if you get it. Don't know what the problem has been.....operator error I am sure.
Just spent the weekend with J and M and their kids. It was perfect.
I never counted exactly how many pills I take a day for PD, allergies, pain, stomach, cholesterol, and I don't plan to count. They are organized and the challenge is to remember to take them.!!! Once in a while I forget. Maybe I need a pill that helps me remember to take the pills. I remember when my favorite TV shows are on, lyrics from Hair and Les Miz, teachers I had, and all my cats. I think its all about aging.
Grandchildren are coming this weekend. Can't wait to see them. Oh yeah. I forgot.Their parents are joining them !
I have good days and not so good days.I try to remember only the days that I am healthy and energetic and calm. Thats all !!!
