I went to Tucker Rehab to check on my Mom. She’s working hard to get stronger and is making real improvement! She was able to get up from the bed, onto her walker, go to the bathroom and get up and down from the toilet on her own. The PT gave her some good suggestions and exercises to work on.
Deepstash has changed their format a bit. Still getting used to it.
Listened to Don Cheto while driving to Tucker and back.
Cleaned and filled birdbaths. I need to get a new hose to replace this one with the hole.
Got a text from a team leader coming in June. May be some changes involved.
Español!
Did my laundry including my blue hoodie and blue jeans.
Got clothes and other things my Mama needs at the rehab place.
Took them to her around 1 PM. I had to park across the street at the middle school.
She was happy about the treats I’d left.
Measured the height of the bed at the rehab center. We’ll aim for that at home. I used the Measure app on my phone.
Ashley came by to see me today. She’s in 8th grade. Her family moved up to Ackworth about an hour away. It takes some getting used to because the school is almost completely white people.
The dogwoods are fantastic. FBC Doraville has them.
I went by myself today. Kathy stayed home. There hasn’t been much homework and she didn’t feel needed. PE and I ate at Bojangles. Then to White Windmill for treats.
I had a lot of kids today.
Chapstick malfunctioned.
Don Cheto.
I was able to find the headphones and adaptor for my Mom’s iPad.
Big rainbows. I saw one make the full half circle. Couldn’t shoot the picture and drive! Honestly, I would have had to shoot panoramic mode because it was so big.
Push.

Talked with the Tucker Rehab administration for my Mom.
OYB!
Talked to Cincinnati Insurance about paying off the house note. I’ll be paying for home insurance directly rather than going into escrow as part of my mortgage.
My Mom moved out of Piedmont Hospital this morning. She’s over to Tucker Rehab now.
Talked with the team leader for Cottage Hill BC. They are deciding which two Safaris they want to go on.
Español!
I just figured out that I’ll need two full sheets of 4×6 plywood to cover Nana’s bed. I’ve got a Skill saw to cut them into shape.
The azaleas are so beautiful.
Picked up the girls at the Mission.
K and I took the girls to the Buford Highway Farmers Market.
Helped the kids. Not much homework.
Went to Tucker Rehab to check on Nana. She seems to be settling in well. Amen.
Listened to Don Cheto while I drove back and forth from Piedmont Hospital.
Mama seemed to be doing better. She didn’t sleep well last night. She’s supposed to be transferring to the Tucker Rehab tomorrow around 11 AM.
I’ve had conversations with rehab centers.
Checked the oil and gassed up my car.
Did some yard work when I got home. Light weed whacking.
Looks nice now.
Blew and washed away pollen.
Fresh!
Take it out. Put it up.
I’m the appointment secretary. Primarily, because it’s my schedule everyone has to fit into.
Pollen wasn’t as bad today.
This mat caught my eye. The pollen helps add definition and depth.
I’d try these. You?
Everly trying not to step on a crack and break her father’s back.
Took the girls to Cici’s which is Penelope’s favorite.
This is BIG NEWS! We paid off our house! Wow. It still hasn’t completely sunk in.
I need to call my house insurance tomorrow to make sure that the home insurance will be paid every month. I’m still trying to figure out how much my taxes will be each year.I know how much I have been paying, so it shouldn’t be hard to figure out.
It’s all about long term, consistent effort. These leagues have definitely motivated me to keep going.

Went to Piedmont Hospital to visit my Mom. We had a good talk. She’ll be going into physical therapy until she can get around well enough to come back home. I believe that will be within a couple of weeks.
Beauty all around us.
This was on the ground near my car at the hospital. The color really popped in the sunlight.
Left voice mail with my buddy Don Howard. I set up a time to get together, and hours later I had to change it. I need to be at the lung doctor appointment for K that day.
My favorite thing about driving alone is listening to Don Cheto.
I enjoyed the No Kings rally. Beautiful weather and a cool vibe.
The path for the rally was too long. I led the way and got so far ahead I just walked back to my car. Here’s less than half of it.
I enjoyed some peaceful time at the 40 Oaks Park. I liked the mushroom garden illustrations.
The park has been there awhile.
Keep going.

I went to Piedmont Hospital this morning to take Nana her iPhone and iPad. She needed coms to keep in contact with us. Also brought her a few treats. She seemed to be feeling better. I had her call my brother Jim so he knew she could communicate.
Listened to Don Cheto while I drove.
Confirmed that I’m going to the No Kings rally tomorrow in Tucker.
Español!
Called the hospital about discharging my Mom. Not sure when that will be. I think she needs to go to a rehab facility for a while to make sure she can get around before coming home. None of us can really help her.
K and I went to Briggs Vision Group to have our eyes checked out.
My eyes tested at 20/20 and no sign of any macular degeneration or any other eye disease. That was good to know!
Deepstash!
I heard from my buddy Don Howard today. I’ll give him a call back tomorrow. We hope to get together soon.
Just keep going.

My Mom couldn’t move her right leg without extreme pain this morning.
I called 911 and the firemen came to check her out. Then they called EMS to transport her to Piedmont Eastside Hospital. I was there over eight hours. She’s in good hands!
Went to the Post Office to mail the newsletters.
Processed and deposited checks at the bank.
Pollen has been super bad.
I called my brother so Nana could talk to him.
Called my buddy Don Howard. I was supposed to hang out with him tomorrow. Can’t because of this medical situation. I have a eye doctor appointment tomorrow as well.
Listened to Don Cheto.
Deepstash!
Keep going.
