08:30 AM: I’m up.

08:45 AM: Facebooked for perhaps ten minutes. Friend count: 624 (up one). Fan count: 114 (unchanged).

10:30 AM: Continued efforts to clean up and organize the basement after yesterday’s upgrade of windows 7 and 8 down there.

10:45 AM: Leaving now to visit Mom.  Back later.

11:15 AM: Arrived at the nursing home.  Mo is still in bed.  However, I busied myself putting away her clean clothes that I’d brought with me, and gathering up her dirty ones for laundering later this week.

11:30 AM: Submitted to the nursing home business office, an updated monthly amount that Mom pays for her medical insurance premiums.  Her payment is a bit lower in 2012 than last year, and we’re required to report any changes in her expenditures to the nursing home so that they can calculate the correct amount we must pay for the private portion of Mom’s care.

12:00 PM: Walked to Mom’s favorite Mexican restaurant and picked up a cheese steak sub for me, and two chicken soft tacos with cheese for her.

01:30 PM: We ate lunch together in the first floor lounge while watching    The Young and the Restless.

01:45 PM: Then we stopped off at the gym so Mom could work her arms and hands. However, due to a large crowd of patients already there, we could not stay.  So, we headed for the recreation room.  We’d heard that a batch of flowers arrived that Mom often arranges into smaller pots for placement around the facility.  However, they were out of “wet sponge.”  This is a rigid yet absorbent material that can be pierced with the stems of the flowers, and that will support the flowers (keep them from falling over) while at the same time, providing them water to extend their lives another few days.  Without this material, and with no substitute present, Mom could not arrange the flowers.  Hopefully by the time the next shipment of flowers comes in, they’ll have obtained more of this wet sponge stuff.

02:40 PM: Mom and I then sat in the lobby, gabbing, waiting for my ride home.

02:45 PM: My ride is here.  Heading home.  Back later.

03:05 PM: I’m home, and quite tired.  From all the exertion yesterday replacing basement windows 7 and 8, most of the joints in my lower body are aching.  So I’m taking a nap.  Back later.

06:05 PM: I’m awake again.  Wow!  Long nap.  I hope I’ll sleep okay tonight.

07:00 PM: Watched today’s episode of   Dr. Phil,   called   Fix It Or End It Today.

10:00 PM: Watched President Obama’s State of the Union Address.  I’m recording some of the follow-up commentary to watch later this week.  I found this speech to be a great summary of his accomplishments during his presidency so far; so much so that he’s got my vote in November.

11:00 PM: Talked with   [Emmy].  We listened to the end of tonight’s Penguins hockey game with the St. Louis Blues.  The Penguins won in an overtime shoot-out, 3 to 2.

11:05 PM: I’m heading to bed.  Good night and do stop back tomorrow for more content.     Good night.

05:00 PM: Replaced basement windows 7 and 8 on the south wall with glass block upgrades.  This took much of today, as window 8 had lots of crumbling mortar around it.  I had to shovel a few buckets of gravel into the gaping holes in the foundation that surfaced when the old window was removed.  I then replaced that old mortar with a fresh new coat of a way more modern mixture.

08:30 AM: I’m up.

08:45 AM: Facebooked for several minutes. Friend count: 623 (unchanged). Fan count: 114 (unchanged).

01:00 PM: Red up and organized the area of the basement near windows 2 and 3.  Since I had to unload these shelves a few days back to replace these windows, I took the opportunity to vacuum the floors underneath them (lots of cobwebs and dust), and better organize their contents while reloading these shelves.

02:15 PM: Watched today’s episodes of NBC’s   Meet The Press   and CBS’s   Face The Nation   weekly news-in-depth broadcasts, via the DVR.

03:00 PM: Leaving now with nephew Garrett for sister Christine’s house to watch some playoff football games.  Back later.

06:15 PM: I’m back home.  Decided not to stay for the 2nd game, as they’re predicting some freezing rain for this area tonight, and we did not want to risk running into that while driving over the mountain later tonight.

07:30 PM: Watched last night’s and tonight’s episodes of   NBC’s Nightly News   via the DVR.

08:30 PM: Watched tonight’s episode of CBS’s   60 Minutes   via the DVR.

10:00 PM: Red up and organized the area of the basement near windows 4, 5, and 6.

11:00 PM: Talked with   [Emmy].

11:05 PM: I’m stopping the daily reporting of the monthly keyword hit counts for my blogs for now.  The numbers haven’t changed appreciably over the past few month, and I must admit that I’ve not attempted to do anything about that either.  So reporting the same traffic here each night not only wastes space, but my time as well. However, once I resume my efforts with the blogs in ernest, I’ll report those numbers once again; especially if they start to rise consistently.

11:10 PM: I’m heading to bed.  More tomorrow.

07:50 AM: I’m up.

08:05 AM: Facebooked for a bit. Friend count: 623 (up one). Fan count: 114 (unchanged).

08:10 AM: Lots of snow fell overnight; perhaps 4 to 6 inches.  So, no basement windows replacement project today.  Instead, I’ll probably continue organizing the basement, catch up on some television that I’ve been putting off, and catch up on these blogs as well.  Haven’t journaled in close to a month.  So I definitely owe the audio recorder a session or two to update the journal as well.

09:00 AM: Watched the 2012-01-03 episode of   Dr. Phil   via the DVR, called   Smart People, Bad Choices.

09:45 AM: Watched the 2012-01-04 episode of   Dr. Phil   via the DVR, called   CBS This Morning.

12:30 PM: Took down and put away the Christmas tree.  Also, checked and repaired any burned-out bulbs in the ten strings of lights that I removed from the tree before stowing it.

01:15 PM: Made a large bowl of pasta and Parmesan cheese for lunch.

02:00 PM: Nap time.  Back later.

04:00 PM: I’m awake again.

04:20 PM: Watched last night’s episode of   NBC’s Nightly News   via the DVR.

05:10 PM: Watched the 2012-01-16 episode of NBC’s   Rock Center   in-depth news show via the DVR.

06:00 PM: Replaced kitchen electrical outlet to the left of stove due to loose-fitting sockets.  Items plugged into this outlet would sometimes fall out. The new outlet is much tighter.

07:15 PM: Replaced one faulty light dimmer in the kitchen for the bank of task lights above the stove.  Hmmm.  That’s the 2nd one I’ve replaced there in the past ten years.  If another fails, I’ll look into taking those lights off of the same circuit as the outlets near the stove.  Voltage spikes from appliances going on and off that are plugged into those outlets may be destroying these dimmers.

07:20 PM: I’m following the primary election returns in South Carolina on CNN throughout tonight.

08:40 PM: Corrected the wiring for and replaced the outlet in Mom’s old sitting room that feeds my treadmill.  A routine check revealed that the hot and neutral wires were reversed. Plus, the old recepticle had lots of old paint on it.  So now, this outlet works better, is safer, and looks nicer as well.  Oh, and it had a ground as well.  Nice.

11:00 PM: Talked with   [Emmy].

11:10 PM: I’m heading to bed.  Good night and do stop back tomorrow for more content.  Good night.

12:05 AM: The daily traffic stats from yesterday for my blogs.  The monthly keyword hit count for this run is ???, up from 946 at last check.  The record high for this dimension remains at 1788.  The next goal: 2000.

08:20 AM: Worked on the blogs a bit.

08:30 AM: Going out shopping now with sister Jojo and to visit Mom.  Back later.

09:45 AM: We’re finished shopping at Wal Mart. Now we’re driving to Duncansville to pick up some new eyeglasses I have waiting out there.

10:30 AM: I got my eyeglasses and they fit and look great.  They work quiet well also.  I got three pairs this time.  Two pairs are identical, each with bifocal lenses.  The third pair has no bifocals, and are for distance vision only.  I’ll use these for television viewing so I’m not constantly having to look around the bifocal to clearly see the screen.   Now, we’re going to Denny’s for breakfast.

11:30 AM: We’ve finished breakfast.  I enjoyed a healthy omelet, pancakes, fruit cup, and hot chocolate.  Yum!  Now, we’re heading to Sam’s Club, where Trey is to pick up some new contact lenses.  Now, we’re heading to Dunkin’ Donuts to pick up a couple lemon donuts for Mom and a coffee for me.

11:45 AM: Now, we’re stopping at Subway to get a sandwich for Mom that she requested.

11:50 AM: We’ve just arrived at the nursing home.  Mom was still sleeping.  However, she quickly and fully awoke upon seeing Jojo, Trey, and myself.

10:30 PM: Spent the evening putting back the shelves in front of windows 4, 5, and 6 (the windows I replaced yesterday) back, and organizing their contents.  I also worked on repairing a broken gliding rocking chair down there.  I’ll have to get a drill out tomorrow and some thick screws, to fasten the parts together so they’ll hold together.  This chair keeps falling apart on me.

11:00 PM: Talked with   [Emmy].

08:45 AM: Installing glass block window upgrades to windows 4, 5, and 6 in the basement.  This should take much of the day today.

11:30 AM: The three old windows have been removed, and the glass block replacements have been set into position, leveled, and measured to assure proper symmetrical appearance.

03:00 PM: The  application of mortar to the inside side of the windows has been applied to all three windows.  I’ll next do the same on the outside.

05:30 PM: All shims have been removed from the three basement windows I’m upgrading and final mortar has been applied.

07:00 PM: Cleaned up excess mortar from the new windows, and swept up the work areas in the cellar where I installed them.  I also used some of the left-over mortar to plug a few cracks in the walls down there.

10:35 AM: Wrapped up my numerous audio and video cables that were sort of strewn about in the cellar prior to the basement windows replacement project.  They’re neatly rolled and stacked in the northwest corner of the basement (near the power box and just beneath window #3).

10:45 AM: Leaving now to pay a visit to Mom.  Back later.

11:30 AM: Arrived at Mom’s nursing home.  Mom was sleeping when I got there.  So I busied myself putting away her clean clothes and loading up the laundry bag I brought with me, with her dirty ones.

11:45 AM: The morning nurse came in to dress Mom.  So I’m heading to our favority Mexican restaurant to pick up a cheese steak sub for myself.  Then on the way back, I’ll stop off at Mom’s favorite hot dog shop and buy a hot dog and fries for Mom.

12:30 PM: I’m back at the home.  Getting lunch took a bit more time than usual today, because I had to wait for the cheese steak sub, and then, also, the hot dog shop for Mom’s order.  But it all worked out, as this gave Mom plenty of time to get dressed.

12:50 PM: We at lunch in the first floor lounge.

01:30 PM: While there, we watched today’s episode of   The Young and the Restless.

02:25 PM: Then, Mom and I went down to the lobby to wait for my van home.  We just chit-chatted until it came.

02:30 PM: I’m leaving for home now.

03:00 PM: I’m home.

04:05 PM: Published a few new posts to my blogs, including this one.

04:10 PM: Nap time.  Back later.

06:00 PM: I’m awake again.

06:30 PM: Steamed some fresh green beans in the wok, which appears to steam them twice as fast as the dedicated steamer I have.  However, one should keep an eye on the water level in the bottom of the wok, as the water boils away rather quickly.

07:15 PM: Watched the 2011-01-17 episode of   Dr. Phil,   called   Teen Trends: Killer Numbers   via the DVR.

08:00 PM: Watched the 2011-01-18 episode of   Dr. Phil,   called   Unusual Syndromes and Fears  via the DVR.

10:00 PM: Unloaded the shelves in front of windows 4, 5, and 6 in the basement, in preps to replace them tomorrow.

10:25 AM: Put things back on the shelves that I had removed the other day in preps for basement window #3 replacement.  That replacement is now complete and went well.  So I figured I’d reorganize the shelf items before putting them back.

10:30 AM: Leaving now for the Red Cross donor center in the Orchard shopping plaza.  I’m giving blood today.  Back later.

11:00 AM: Arrived at Orchard Plaza.  However, since the Red Cross is not yet open, I’m heading for Eat ‘n’ Park for lunch.

11:45 AM: I’ve finished lunch and have walked over to the Odd Lots store, to shop a bit before my appointment at Red Cross.

12:20 PM: Finished shopping at Odd Lots.  B0ught a few hammers to place around the house in places where I typically use them for minor household repairs.  Also found some cheap diagonal pliers for the same purpose.

12:30 PM: I’m now at Red Cross.  No wait.  They’re not too busy today so they’re taking me right away.

01:10 PM: Blood donation complete.  My blood pressure is still high for my liking (140 / 86).  My next doctors appointment to follow up on this is in March.  Otherwise, all was well.  My hemoglobin count this time was 14.9.  I think I’ll walk back over to Odd Lots for more shopping until my ride home gets here.

02:30 PM: Just left Odd Lots but found nothing I really need this time around.  The van is here as well.  So I’m heading home.

03:00 PM: I’m home.

04:00 PM: Watched today’s episode of   The Young and the Restless   via the DVR.

05:15 PM: Spent more time in the basement cleaning up after the first three window replacements.

05:20 PM: Leaving now with brother-in-law Richard for the state store and Lowe’s.  I’m buying the rest of the glass block basement window replacements tonight, along with the required three 50-pound bags of glass block mortar.  Back later.

06:30 PM: First stop: The PA state store.  I’ve decided to relax my alcohol ban slightly, and buy a few bottles to keep around here for when friends visit.  I also wanted to buy Rich a few bottles of American Honey bourbon as payment for his driving me tonight.

07:45 PM: Next, we went to Lowe’s.  We picked up six of the seven windows needed.  The seventh one is a special order item, because it must have a dryer vent built in.  That made it $40 more expensive than the regular glass block windows.  But it’s worth it.

08:00 PM: I’m home.  I showed Richard the three windows I’ve installed already, and he said they look quite good.  He also gave me some tips for how to more easily replace the remaining ones, showed me some advanced techniques for spreading the mortar with a trowel, and how to smooth the mortar over broken brick to make for a smooth-appearing window sill.  Then, Rich went home, saying he had to get to bed early due to the past couple days of extremely early rising for him (4:30 AM).

10:00 PM: I carried the new glass block windows and mortar down to the basement and continued organizing the shelves as well as pondering how best to unload the shelf in front of window #4, which I hope to replace this coming Thursday.

11:00 PM: Talked with   [Emmy].

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

11:55 PM: Washed, dried, folded, and put away laundry throughout the day.
