I've been sick. Too tired/lazy to argue with the staff about food. Today, for instance they had fish on the menu but before they got to our table they had run out. I stayed home and Ern was to bring it to me after he ate. He got home with their version of soft tacos. Not the best thing for a carb controlled diet for a sick person. This is not the first time they have run out on a menu item. The chef's excuse, "He needs to keep within a perimeter with the home office." If I told you what we pay to live here, I'm sure you would gasp. My thought is (excuse the language), "Screw the home office, the 'paying' residents'/clients' needs should come first." Anyway, it's hard enough to eat healthily here, but to ask someone to deliver from the dining room limits one even further.

Depression has set in as it usually does after Christmas. I missed breakfast and lunch today because I slept through them. Now I am faced with the choice of three menu items in the diningroom. Low mein (no carbs in those noodles, right?), Sausage and pepper sandwich (no carbs there unless you eat the sub roll thus making it an unsandwich), or what they call the healthy choice, good for diabetics, "PASTA bolognese." Pasta covered with a tomato cream sauce. This is rediculous. Fortunately Ern has brought bacon from breakfast today and sausage yesterday. I'm going to reheat them in the microwave then add turkey breast, Swiss cheese and lettuce and put them on two slices of low carb bread. They don't serve salad at night but I have a head of lettuce that I m going to wedge with dressing as well as tearing some leaves for the sandwich. I also have Kozy Shack pudding for dessert with a squirting of ReddiWhip. This meal still requires 7 units of insulin but it is something I like and will be filling. Hope everyone is staying warm and safe.

Santa was good to us. 60" TV and blue ray DVD player. Got some dvds to go with it. We love the movies "Fireproof", "Courageous" and "Facing the Giants" and Ern got us a five pack containing those and two other by the same author which we hadn't seen. I spent Christmas in bed with stomach cramps and diarrhea. I guess you could day I didn't even eat on Christmas. Christmas eve we went to daughter's so she could re-dress Ernie's toeless foot. Got to see three of my grands and my great granddaughter. The BIG negative is I have lost my phone, which also contains my drivers license, credit card and medical ID card. This is obviously scary and inconvenient. The good news is I have called and put a hold on my cc and they show no other charges. Also I keep calling my phone and it keeps going to voice mail so I assume no one is using it and it is discharged. Life goes on, I'm just not sure I am ready to deal with not having a smart device. I can't even keep track of my food in the dining room as it has no wifi. Pain in the butt. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and will have a safe, healthy, new year .

Weight is up a little. Hoping it is water weight. Still feeling good about myself. My watch and rings are too large again. Not large enough to go down another size, but they keep turning around on my fingers. I've been buying clothes from stores and catalogs that I never could have in the past. We were planning on moving again but as much as I loved the place, it was just too small for us and our furniture.So here we stay. Looking forward to Christmas. This is the first time in 70 years that I haven't had a tree. Seems weird but doesn't bother me as much as I thought it would. We bought a TV and a blue ray player, and plan on spending Chrisrmas day watching White Christmas, Miracle on 34th Street, and It's a wonderful life, all day long. Christmas eve day Ernie is doing dialysis. This made me sad for awhile til I realized it would give me the opportunity to get prepared for Santa. Then we can eat a nice meal and relax. Ern has finally gotten set up on the "Lift bus" which means all he has to do is get to the apartment door and they pick him up and drop him off. Today was the first day and it was great. I finally had time to myself. I took the car to Toyota and finally had it washed. I'd forgotten what color it was.😁 I Christmas shopped, and wrapped and bagged gifts. I have not had that much continuous time for months. This week we went my daughter's pinning ceremony and commencement. She now has her BSN and is talking about starting her master's program instead of waiting. Needless to say, her dad and I are very proud of her. In case I don't get back before, Merry Christmas FS Friends.
