Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

Today’s Activities

  • Shower.  DONE.
  • Cat duty.  DONE.
  • Balance all checking accounts.   IN PROGRESS.

Log

09:00 AM: I’m up.

09:50 AM: Heard from [Emmy].  She’s at her dentist’s now, after having arrived a half hour early; she hates being late and so leaves her place to bus it there earlier than perhaps is necessary.  But that Negley bus is often so crowded and the route it travels is so traffic-laden, that it’s hard to predict just how long a particular trip will take.  So she heads out early; just to be safe.

11:00 AM: Nephew Garrett arrived a little while ago to drive Mom to an eye specialist in Johnstown, PA. Apparently, her right eye has developed some issues; though I have no details on Mom’s specific concerns yet.

12:00 PM:  Added more linkage in the   Tom’s Love Quest   blog.  The Goal: All posts need a ‘Related Posts’ section that lists links to other similar or relevant content in that blog.

01:40 PM: Worked the   Facebook Suspension: 2010-06-15    resolution.

03:00 PM: Watched today’s episode of   The Young and the Restless   on the DVR.

03:15 PM: Nap time.

05:00 PM: I’m back up.

07:10 PM: Just walked down to the pavilion and nibbled a few ripe mulberries.  They’re moderately sweet this year; though I’ve seen sweeter back in 2008.  There are still many more to come that at this moment are still very green.  So we’ve not yet seen them peak this year yet.

08:10 PM: Just finished blogging and accounting for all pending shopping receipts.  See the shopping trip posts   here.  Now, I can finally balance the checking accounts.  :-)

08:40 PM: Watched President Obama’s speech about all the government is doing to recover the gulf region from the oil spill.  I’m satisfied that he’s doing what’s reasonable to move things along down there and to provide ample pressure to BP, so they compensate the people who lost their business incomes along those shores.

08:50 PM: Gathered up and took out the garbage; it’s garbage night.  You know?  :-)

09:50 PM: Talked with [Emmy] on the phone for an hour.  Didn’t discuss much, really.  Sometimes, it’s just nice to know that some one’s on the other end of the line; even when they’re not saying much.

11:40 PM: Watched tonight’s episode of   NBC’s Nightly News   on the DVR.

12:15 AM: Headed to bed. So have a great night, and I’ll write again soon.  Take care.

Mom’s Status: 2010-06-15

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

02:54 PM: Mom just called from the retina specialist’s office in Johnstown.  They found swelling in the back of her right eye. So to reduce it, they’re giving her an injection of medicine, right into the eye itself.  Ouch!  We don’t know what caused this, and I’m not sure yet if it’s affecting her vision or if so, if this will be permanent.  So stand by for more details.

Facebook Suspension: 2010-06-15

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

So, this morning just before bed, I’m zipping around on Facebook, reading comments and status entries as well as posting my own, when my screen cleared; all except for this message saying that my Facebook account had just been disabled.  No reason given however.

Hmmm.  What rule might I have inadvertently broken?  I dug into the help files and found some possibilities; though nothing solid, and certainly nothing that I’ve not seen occuring on there routinely.  But I’ll hold of on speculating about what might have happened until my accounts is once again unlocked.

I’ll track the resolution of this problem in the comments below.

Today’s Diet: 2010-06-15

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

I keep this food diary to stay aware of just how many calories I’m eating daily, with the hope that it decreases the likelihood that I’ll overeat.    It seems to work, so here we go with another day…

Today, I consumed the following items:

  • Herbal tea and diet caffeine-free Pepsi  throughout the day. 0 calories.
  • 01:30 PM: 1/2 cup almonds.  340 calories.
  • 03:30 PM: 2 cups fat free milk.  160 calories.
  • 04:00 PM: Almonds.  1020 calories. 
  • 04:10 PM: Multivitamin.
  • 06:00 PM: 1 bowl of cherries.  300 calories.
  • 09:10 PM: 3 slices of muenster cheese.  240 calories.
  • 12:00 AM: 1/2 cup raisins.   260 calories.

Total calories: 2320.
