Still Warm

It's still warm out, and will remain so into November.

I've seen forecasts of a brutal winter.  I hope they're wrong.

Over

This has been a tough week.  Lots of little things have bugged me.

I'm glad it's nearly over.

Birthdays

Today is my twin brothers' birthday.  Jeff and Joe are 57.

We have several October birthdays in my family, which tells you what certain people were doing those cold nights in January.

Mouse

I'm still struggling to use the new mouse, but I'm finding new ways to use the keyboard.

Hopefully, I'll get faster soon.

World Series

The World Series opens tonight, and I'm picking the Cubs in five games.

It's not a good idea, however, to be playing baseball, at night, possibly into November, in Chicago and Cleveland.

Tough Sunday

My daytime aide company sent an aide yesterday who could barely walk.  I had her give me lunch, but waited for the next shift and the next aide to go to the bathroom.

It was tough.

Dad

Yesterday would have been Dad's 84th birthday.

I often wonder how certain things in the family would have worked out if he had been here to help us.

Debate

So, I watched the debate last night.  I've watched all three.

It's hard to believe one of those people is going to be the next president.

Mouse Quits

My computer mouse finally stopped completely, so now I'm having to get used to another one.

It's a pain.

More Aide Stuff

I have an aide now who puts her hand on the back of my head when she feeds me.

It's annoying.  I've tried to tell her not to do it, but she hasn't taken the hint yet.

Colts

The Colts lost another close one last night.

They looked better, but they need to start winning.

Computer Problems

My computer is acting up again.  It's extremely frustrating.

I am figuring out a way to operate the system without using the mouse, however.  It's much slower, and I don't know yet exactly how much I can do that way, but it's good for my nerves.

SimLeague Baseball

My latest SimLeague baseball team finished the season 80-82, but that was good enough to win the division, so now it's in the playoffs.

I  think it has a shot to win some playoff games.

Columbus

On this date 524 years ago, Columbus discovered America.

It's amazing how much the world has changed since then.

Election

This election has been bizarre from the start.

Who knows what will happen next.

Colts

The Colts got their second win of the season yesterday.

Hopefully, they'll get on a roll.

Heat

We've had a span of warm days this week.

It might not be this warm again till next spring.

Still With The Computer

I'm still having trouble moving the cursor on my computer.  It's not the mouse.  I think it's the software.

I hate fiddling with it.

Back Rubbing

I've had aides recently who rub my back while I eat.

It's annoying.

Computer

My computer is  giving me fits today.

Some birthday..

Baseball Predictions

I'm picking the Rangers and the Dodgers to play in the World Series, with the Rangers winning.

My Pirates didn't make the playoffs this season.
