Today was jam-packed, and I made it through without falling, although I came close a few times. I had lunch with Karen at Pastis' in historic Roswell. Had a very nice time, and its always good to see her. I hope to hear that she's feeling better in the next few days... she's had enough going on without adding "not feeling good" to the list. Then, Mom and I met back at the house to go shopping. My transmission light came on again when we were halfway to our first 2 stops (Dick Blick and Staples), and so we drove back home to switch cars. Drove down to NorthPoint Mall, where I had some major returning to do. I have to buy clothes online these days because I'm unable to lift the wheelchair in and out of the car by myself. I wasnt too confident of my legs, since I fell 2 days ago, so we thought bringing the WC was the best bet. I FINALLY found some shoes that are easy to get off and on, and they're stylish, too! While Mom was in Williams-Sonoma, I rolled off to the Godiva shoppe and bought her some chocolate as a thank you for taking me, and then I also found 2 very nice smelly Yankle candles that I gave to her to use in the den and kitchen. She liked both of them. The house is going to smell great! The only other treat I wasnt able to get was the decorative metal grate that goes on top to keep the candle sides from turning black. I'll just order that online for her. WE also made a quick pit stop for some artsy magazines at Hobby Lobby, then finished our day off by getting salads at Brookwood Grille. Yum! By the time we did all of that, my body was about to raise a surrender flag. I hurt all over, my muscles were getting very weak, and my imbalance issues were at full throttle. It's almost 2am, and I still cant sleep because I still hurt (even though I've taken all of my medicines.) I'll just sleep in tomorrow! --- A few days ago, I joined the neatest ebay group called TLOFA: The Ladies of Folk Art. They are all so nice, and I'm really glad to be a part of them. See their banner above! I've been trying to play catchup by reading past posts, and also trying to meet everyone and stay current. Its been a lot of fun so far meeting everyone, and their discussions are spurring me onto to learn new art forms... doll-making, particularly. Ok, my eyeballs just hit the keyboard. Time for sleepy ni-ni..........
