Busy morning

I've had a fun morning, preparing myself (Jim's a vegetarian) 18 hamburgers.  I cooked up all the burgers, and then put each one into a thin bun, along with relish and ketchup.  Each burger then went into a zip-lock sandwich bag, and into a larger zip-loc bag and into the freezer.  When I want a burger for my meal, I just pop one into the microwave for one minute, then add my lettuce, tomatoes, and onions into my piping hot bun.  I love those thin buns ... they're large enough to hold your burger without overwhelming it, so you can concentrate on what's inside.

Shades of the future?


For the past month I’ve been very busy implementing our new phone system using Magic Jack, which runs through our computer, thus enabling us to say goodbye to the high prices of regular phone service.  Yesterday, for some unexplained reason, I experienced a period of total confusion, and I had no idea what Magic Jack was when Jim mentioned it.  And I started to read him an email from his sister which he said I had read to him five minutes earlier.  Since we had planned a trip to our apartment to pick up a few things, we decided to stop at the hospital on our way, just to make sure I hadn’t experienced a small stroke.  The doctor decided it was just a natural progression of my disease, and was going to contact my neurologist to let her know.  I’m not sure I agree with the doctor's diagnosis, and feel I may have had an Transient ischemic attack, but what do I know!  Anyways, I’m back to my normal self today….which is good!
