Snow

I hear we might get our first snow of the season this weekend.

Hopefully, it'll be the first of only a few.

Emails

For a while last summer, I was getting 20, 30, and even 40 emails a day-- and they weren't mainly  political stuff.   Lately, though, I've getting maybe 5 a day.

Very odd.

TV

I'm finding I  can't get at least a few channels I used to get.  Now, it says, you have to subscribe to something or other to get them.

Bummer.

Turkey Day

My sister Kim and niece Renee came over yesterday, and Renee brought her boyfriend.  He called me "Uncle Greg."

It was a nice day.

Thanksgiving Day

My nighttime aide company is covering the daytime shifts on Thanksgiving.

Ir seems the better run of the two companies I use.

Again

My daytime aide company again failed to cover my dinner shift yesterday, and, as of now, has no one at all coming on Thanksgiving Day.

I'm beginning to dread holidays.

MLB Network

I tried to watch the MLB Network this morning, but it was blocked.  It said I need to subscribe.

Too bad.  I will miss it.

Denver

Wednesday, it was 80 degrees in Denver.  Yesterday,  Denver was expecting eight inches of snow.  Something like that is expected here this weekend.

Crazy Midwestern weather.

IU

IU's men's basketball team looked really good for the second game in a row last night.

I'd say it has real potential.

Black Ladies' Hair

One of my aides has taught me never to mess up a black lady's hair.

Not that I ever would.

Hot Streak

It looks like the next couple days will be the last warm ones before the cold settles in.

Yuck.

Saturday

This past Saturday night, my daytime aide company failed again to staff my dinner shift.

It's extremely frustrating.

IU Hoops

IU plays mighty Kansas in men's basketball tonight in Hawaii.

I think it's on an aircraft carrier, which is interesting.

Pants Pull

I have an aide who picks me up by grabbing my pants and pulling up.

It can be quite uncomfortable.

President Trump

So, Donald Trump has been elected President, to the shock of virtually every political pundit on television news.

I'll be interested to see how many of them keep their television job.

Good Luck To Us All

Today is Election Day.  Many people, including me, are glad this campaign is over.

Of course, we have only ourselves to blame.  American voters gave these people the nominations, and we got what we got.

Yodit

My aide Yodit will be away for the next ten days.

I will miss her.

Bathroom Stuff

Lately, I've been going ten hours or more without urinating.

There's been no pain, and this is more in line with my habit before I had the bladder cancer, so I guess it's okay.

Bigger May Be Better

I have a couple of aides now who chop up my food into tiny pieces.  They say they don't want it going down the wrong tube and getting into my lungs.

But aren't tiny pieces the pieces most likely to do that?

Game Seven

The seventh game of the World Series is tonight.

Both teams seem to be at basically full strength, which probably gives a slight edge to the Cubs.

Blown Shifts

My daytime aide company has blown the dinner shift two days in a row.

My nighttime company covered Sunday, but not last night.  I was just stuck.
