Bowl Seasin

The college football bowl season shifts into high gear today.

I'm picking Alabama and Oklahoma to play in the national championship game.

Quarterbacks

The Colts might be down to their fourth quarterback for the final game.

It's been a disastrous season.

Self-Driving Cars

A presumed expert in such things said on CNBC recently that self-driving cars will be common in America in ten years.

That would be a big boost in independence for the disabled.

Christmas

My family came over on Christmas, and we had a good time.

My nephew Ben is getting married next year, which is pretty cool.  He's a good young man.

Power Loss

I lost power for about a half hour yesterday afternoon.

Not a good sign as we head into winter.

Christnas

My family is coming to my place on Christmas Day.

It will be a good time.

Shfts

Still no one to cover the Christmas Eve afternoon shift.

And so we go.

Books

No good word yet about any of my novels.  Various ultimately successful books have been rejected dozens of times, however.

I'll keep trying.

Hot Times

A week before Christmas in Indiana and I'm still using the fan in my office.

Amazing.

Staffing

The staffing issues that often crop up during the holidays seem to be under control this time around.

It's a good change.

Tough Day

I'm having a tough time operating the computer today.

My hand gets that way sometimes.

Password

I finally changed the password to my computer to one easier to type so I can use Windows 10 with less frustration.

It's still a pain.

Colts Are Done

The Colts were routed by the Jaguars yesterday.

I'd say the Colts are finished for this season.  They simply had too many injuries to overcome.

Indiana Weather

It's two weeks before Christmas, and people are still going outside without heavy coats.

Hopefully it's the start of a mild winter.

My Mighty Cardinals

My Ball State Cardinals  are 7-2 in men's basketball so far this season.

Hopefully, I'll get to see some of their games.

New Aides

A couple of new aides seem to be in the process of being added to my rotation.

Both seem to be nice ladies, so hopefully things work out.

Christmas Time

My aide Dennise has gotten some Christmas decorations for my apartment.

It's looking pretty good.

Colts

The Colts were blasted on national television last night.

They've had too many injuries to key guys this season.  If they make the playoffs, it'll be a fluke.

So...........

My daytime aide company did staff the dinner shift last night, but it sent an aide I'd never met.  She was good, so we got through it okay, but that's not the way to do business.

The company has had a rough week.

Another Failure

My daytime aide company did in fact fail to cover the dinner shift last night.

It's getting very predictable, and very old.

Wednesday, December 2, 2015

Again

My daytime aide company tells me it has no one for my dinner shift tonight.

Who knows if it'll find someone.

Windows 10

I installed Windows 10 last week so I'd stop getting the pop-ups telling me it was available, and now I have to enter my password every day before I can do anything.

It's a pain.
