Yesterday was busy

I was up abput 5am, getting ready to head out to BoB. I made good timing to Tims as they were open at 6am. I was at BoB's by 8am. Just Ceryl, Tarrus and myself there, with Merril. I took some photos of the damaged caused by last summers fire at Wyndham crossing. Building B. The whole place was gutted.

Welcome to November, which takes its name from 9th month of the ancient Roman calendar. On this date in 1755, the Great Lisbon Earthquake occurred, which was followed by a tsunami and fires. It was one of the deadliest natural disasters in history with the near-total destruction of Lisbon, Portugal. Geologists estimate the earthquake was close to a magnitude 9 on the Richter scale.

Yesterday I was able to get my Flu/Pnemonia shot. Next Saturday, I go back again, but I need to make an appointment which I will do this week. At that time it's for my RSV. I have one more out of 4. Anyway, that's all for now.

My wife is hard at work with her in bound

call center job. She's taking pizza orders and customer service calls. Lot's of delivery order are late due to it being Halloween. Most of them are late. Crazy. 

Held on this day was the ancient Celtic's Samhain harvest feast (the precursor to today's Halloween). The date later became associated with All Hallows Eve, honoring the Christian saints. On this day in 1926, magician Harry Houdini passed over to the Other Side. Every year since then, a Halloween séance has been conducted to try and contact him. 

Lately I've been having tremors in my lower left leg. Lewy body dementia: Movement symptoms are common, mirroring Parkinson's disease, and may include stiffness, slow movement, tremors, or a shuffling walk. These can lead to falls. I received a fall at last Chapter meeting. Should I be concerned? I need to get to the Doctors across the street for a consultation and see what's going on. Anyway, that's all for now. 

Not much going on except my mens breafast

on except my mens breafast meeting Saturday morning. I need to get my flue shot at Shoppers drug Mart nearby nearby anyway.

I love Halloween week. The weather channel usually plays some spooky music. This year it's it's rather bland. Hopefully the weather channel has got some feedback and next year, they'll fix this. 

Earlier Anne went out to get Chinese food at Red Diamond. Just over here off 82nd. It looked like at one time it was a buffet but Anne didn't see a buffet when she was there . Anyway, that's all for now. 

I think that

Sustane ointment I received from the eye clinic Friday, is workinging. The side efffect, however is a slight blurring of vision for about the first hour after I woke up. 

Earkier this month I made my first You Tube short from my iPhone. I was using Launcpad. after about an hour, the video earlned a huge amount of views. I was excited. The next day, 180 as views began to taper off after that. I made another short yesterday

 from the computer and the aspect ratiion was not the same as from the iPhone. I even added a link to the existing video I took the short from. 60 seconds. An hour later, 5 views. I even added an extensive keyword list to my channel. I think from now on, I'll be making my shorts on my iPhone, and not on the computer. I think that first 180 views was a fluke. I'll make the nessecary changes next Short.

I was supposed to have meeting with Mack and his wife here but we're booiking it for Wedness day in the observation lounge upstairs. Anyway, that's all for now.

The Sustane

ointment I applied to my lower inside eyelid might have worked. The itch in my left eye is AWOL. I don't think though the itch is from sugar but psoriasis. 

I just went and changed my Facebook accout to go from public to friends. This means that only Friends can read my posts and future posts. Unless they have another account and are going in via a friend in cognito. If Don wants to see what I post on Fb, he'll find it empty.. 

This week I have no outings except a meeting maybe Thursday, and that's here. I do have a breakfast thing early Saturday morning and Lodge Practice next Sunday night. Anyway, that's all for now.

An update on my

fitbit. It needs an update. My firewall might be the issue or my crappy internet speeds that wont let me do it.

Anyway, I was at my optometrist yesterday and asking about glasses for distance. Those are progressives and might not be a good fit for me because of my cataract operation i had early 2000's. Bifocals might be better. My optical insurance is up for renewal next April. 

Our senioirs residence is holding a Halloween costume party next Thursday. Should be a lot of fun. Anway that's all for now.  

Having a nice day off

before heading out to Chapter tomorrow night and, tomorrow I have an eye appointment. After that I'm connecting with someone from the OTO after that here at my place. Busy couple of days.

My place of employment has another project lined up but mercully I wont be working on it. I'm ok with that as it would compromise my Alberta Pension. 2026 could be my last year doing the job. It's draining on me, and I'm making errors. Plus, Anne said with her job and once I have my debt paid off this Spring, I can retire. Plus, I'll be 74 next year. The other option is when I have my bill paid the new desk and the new computer, I could just work until 75. I like that idea better.

My new podometer seems to be holding up okay however, 2955 with Versa 3 was over 2k in distance. This is saying it's 1.5k. I have another software app on the computer when Versa gave me say 3.5, I'd enter the steps in to get the correct @ I might need to do that in this case Anyway, that's all for now.
