<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The
title said it all and it worked. Last night I went back to my
original <b>Nighttime Mickey</b> and it worked. The only time I woke,
was when rolling over, which triggered my <span style="color: red;"><b>Hip/Leg
Pain</b></span>, that automatically opened my eyes. I managed to lay
fairly still last night.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The
<b>Sun</b> was seeping around the window <b>Blinds</b> this morning,
lighting up the <span style="color: blue;"><b>Apartment</b></span>, before
they’d been opened. When the <b>Blinds</b> were opened, all we could
see were <b>Clouds</b> with slivers of blue sky between. We settled
in at the <b>Computers</b> only to find the room getting brighter. We
watched as the <b>Clouds</b> disappeared leaving us with a clear sky.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">For
brunch we enjoyed <b>Grilled Cheese Sandwiches</b> with <b>Dill
Pickles</b> for garnishing. In an effort to continue cleaning the
<b>Fridge</b> mine also contained a healthy dose of <b>Jalapeno
Peppers</b>. Kathy had stocked up while I was still working, so it
will take some time to use them all up.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The
<b>Clouds </b>returned bringing <span style="color: red;"><b>Wind </b></span><span style="color: red;"><b>G</b></span><span style="color: red;"><b>usts</b></span>
of <b>35 MPH</b> after lunch. Checking the forecast showed we were at
55 F (13 C). One of the things the <span style="color: blue;"><b>New
Management Company</b></span> did after taking over our building was
to add <b>Solid </b><b>Partition Walls</b> on the <b>Balconies</b>
between the <span style="color: blue;"><b>Apartments</b></span>. We keep
hearing a banging sound outside with these <span style="color: red;"><b>High
Winds</b></span> so today we went out to investigate. The installers
only fastened them with <b>Anchor Bolts</b> in the deck with no
<strike><b>Bracing</b></strike> to the <b>Railing</b>. I’ll be
speaking to the <b>Manager</b> next week, before another <span style="color: red;"><b>High
Wind</b></span> sends that <b>Wall</b> flying into the parking lot.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We
had a treat for supper. After I cleaned, sliced and boiled a <b>Medium
Celery Root</b>, Kathy and I worked together to bread, then saute
them. The end result were <b>Two </b><b>Very </b><b>Satisfied </b><b>P</b><b>eople</b>.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Since
the <span style="color: blue;"><b>Local News</b></span> no longer comes on
the weekends, (Such a stupid thing) so they can show sports, we
finished our day watching a couple of <span style="color: blue;"><b>Hallmark
Movies</b></span>.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Yesterday
I mentioned picking up more <b>Nighttime Sleep Medications</b> at
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Shoppers Drug Mart</b></span>, but I thought
that I would try something different. According to everything I had
read about the product, it was supposed to be better than what I was
using. Don’t believe everything you read.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">My
head barely hit the pillow before I fell asleep, for an entire <b>Hour</b>.
Laying there, with my mind started racing, about anything and
everything, my <span style="color: red;"><b>Hip/Leg Pain,</b></span>
working on the <b>Trailer</b>, the changing <b>Weather</b>, things
I’d worked on in the past. No matter what I tried, sleep just would
not come, as a fact I became even more awake the harder I tried to
sleep.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Out
of desperation at <b>6:00</b> I took the original <b>Nighttime Mickey
Meds</b>, knowing full well that sleeping in could occur. Even with
<b>Two Doses</b> of sleep aids, I was setting things up for breakfast
by <b>9:00</b>. Unfortunately, with all my tossing and turning
earlier in the night, Kathy had to make up for lost sleep as well.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Though
the <b>Sun</b> shone brightly all day, we busied ourselves catching
up on <b>News</b> and <b>Communications</b>. While reading one of the
<b>Blogs</b> we follow, we learned of the passing of a fellow<b>
Canadian RV Blogger</b> that we had the privilege to meet in
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Quartzsite</b></span>, <span style="color: blue;"><b>Arizona</b></span>.
Others had recently spoken with him just before the <b>New Year</b>.
Once I can confirm it, I will add a link to his site. </span></span>

morning <b>Muffins</b> barely got us through to our late lunch of
Split Pea Soup, that held us over until supper.</span></span></p>

managed to finish up loading the last of the data, I’ll be using in

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">By
the time I was finished, there was only one uncooked vegetable in the
<b>F</b><b>ridge</b> and that will be soon. We had <b>Veggie Wraps
with Bacon</b> for supper.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Once
again, we not only slept soundly, but managed to sleep far later than
we expected. Kathy did need that little bit more sleep, but with each
passing day after springing forward, she finds it easier to adjust.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I
mentioned yesterday, that our forecast was showing an <span style="color: red;"><b>All-Day
Rain</b></span> for today. The <b>Rain</b> didn’t start until
<b>10:00</b>, so we could only do indoor activities. Checking the
<b>Radar</b> showed a massive system heading our way that would end
around midnight, so I went about reading <b>Blogs</b>.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We
enjoyed our <b>Tomato Sandwiches</b> for our lunch before returning
to the <b>Computers</b>, where Kathy noticed the change on the<b>
Radar</b> and had me check it out.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">In
the <b>Three Hours</b> since I’d first looked, there had been big
changes. I’ve mentioned that <span style="color: blue;"><b>Essex County</b></span>
was on a peninsula surrounded by water and many storms coming from
the <b>South</b> split as they hit that water. Though we do get some
precipitation, most goes around. By<b> 4:00</b> the <b>Rain</b> had
stopped and by <b>5:00</b> the <b>Sun </b>was was starting to break
through the clouds.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We
had left the <span style="color: blue;"><b>Apartment </b></span>at <b>4:30
</b>to pick up a few supplies. First stop was <span style="color: blue;"><b>Shoppers
Drug Mart</b></span> where I got more <b>Nighttime Medication</b> and
Kathy some <b>Make-Up</b>. When I purchase our <b>Vitamins</b> they
always give me a <b>Limited Time Discount Card</b>, that I seldom
think to use, but today was the last day and we saved an extra <b>Ten
Dollars</b>.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We
then went to <span style="color: blue;"><b>Dollarama</b></span> to get
some <b>Juice</b> and <b>Iced Tea</b>, that we seem to be going
through quite a bit lately. That’s when we realized the time and
that we were getting hungry. </span></span>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We
went to <span style="color: blue;"><b>Arby’s</b></span> and enjoyed one
of their <b>Fish Sandwiches</b>. They are better than any of the
other <b>Fast Food’s</b>, the only problem is they are here for a
<span style="color: red;"><b>Limited Time Only</b></span> every year. We
were very satisfied when we left.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Back
in the <span style="color: blue;"><b>Apartment</b></span> we watched as
the <b>Clouds</b> totally disappeared just before the <b>Sun</b> set
for the day. Our high temperature reached <b>57 F </b>(<b>14 C</b>)
today, but things are cooling down.</span></span></p>

ended our day watching a <b>Romantic Comedy</b> that we saw at the
show years ago called, “<span style="color: blue;"><b>Leap Year</b></span>”.
It made a lot of sense.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I
apologize to everyone that has been listening to me say whether or
not I’ve been sleeping at night. Most of those nights, I truly
tried making certain that it would happen and they still turned into
a guessing game. However, the last <b>Three Days</b> it was necessary
to forgo those <strike><b>Nighttime Mickeys</b></strike>. The result,
were nights where I did not get an unbroken <b>Hour</b> of sleep.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We
had time to check things <b>On-Line</b> this morning, before heading
out the door at <b>10:30</b>. One of the reasons that leaving early
did not bother me was because, our <b>Printer</b> is still not
working. What that meant was I could not print out a <b>“Q” Pass</b>.
The early arrival at <span style="color: blue;"><b>Canadian Blood Services</b></span>
new <span style="color: blue;"><b>Plasma Center</b></span> allowed me to
use their machine to redo it. What I didn’t know was that, you
can’t do that more than <b>Thirty Minutes</b> ahead of your
appointment, on that machine before it deletes that file. Good thing
there was a gap in appointments, so I was brought in early.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I
also learned that taking someone’s <span style="color: red;"><b>Plasma</b></span>
takes more calculation then when donating <span style="color: red;"><b>Whole
Blood</b></span>. It is a percentage of your weight, and they use a
lower percentage on your first couple of visits. Another thing is
that it takes a lot longer for the process, because the <span style="color: red;"><b>Plasma</b></span>
is withdrawn, and the <span style="color: red;"><b>Blood Cells</b></span>
are returned to your body. Lastly, if you are bored and feel the
need, you can actually donate every <b>Week</b>, compared to every
<b>Eight Weeks</b> for <span style="color: red;"><b>Whole Blood</b></span>.
Today was my <span style="color: red;"><b>144th Blood Donation</b></span>. </span></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal;">If
I had taken any</span><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt;">Sleeping Aids</span></b><b style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal;"> </b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal;">for the last </span><b style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt;">Three Days</b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal;">,
my </span><span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt;"><b>Donation</b></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal;"> would have been denied.</span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">After
I made the suggestion, Kathy had gone to check out a nearby clothing
store, instead of just sitting in the Car. Not finding anything of
interest, she then returned to the <span style="color: blue;"><b>Center </b></span>to
read “<span style="color: blue;"><b>The Boys In The Boat.</b></span>”
She loves real life stories and this one took place just ahead of the
<b>Second World War</b>. There are actual photographs of that <b>Time
Period</b> as well.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">It
was past <b>1:00</b> before I finished, so we stopped at <span style="color: blue;"><b>Guardian
Storage</b></span> to collect our <b>Mail</b>, then we proceeded to
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Pita Pit </b></span>for their <b>$7.00
Specials</b>. They are much quicker than other <b>Fast Food Chains</b>,
the <b>Chicken</b> and <b>Bacon</b> are grilled right in front of
you, then you get to choose the <b>Veggies</b> you want on. While we
ate, we watched as continual line of customers came and went proving,
not everyone has the same time for their lunch.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I
made another suggestion that we stop at <span style="color: blue;"><b>Walmart</b></span>,
so Kathy could get her <b>Walking Exercise</b> in. I dropped her off
at one door and parked the <b>Car</b> near the other. I picked up a
few things that we were getting low on, from the grocery section,
before Kathy went walking by. I’ve made the suggestion before, but
it took bringing her to the store before she got in her laps.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I
forgot to mention that our temperature reached <b>64 </b><b>F</b><b>
</b>(<b>18 C</b>) this afternoon. It will start cooling down for the
next <b>Two Weeks</b>.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Using
the same <b>Nighttime Mickey</b> I have all week, but getting varying
degrees of success, last night made up for the all the other
sleepless nights. When I saw the <b>Sun</b> peering around the <b>Blinds</b>
shortly after <b>7:00</b> I didn’t want the feeling to end, so
rolled over for an extra <b>Hour</b> of sleep. It wasn’t long
before Kathy joined me, saying she slept soundly the entire night.
Glad to hear that.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Not
wanting to experience another sleepless night due to <b>Insomnia</b>,
I cautiously added another <b>Extra Strength Tylenol</b> to my
<b>Nighttime Mickey</b>. The result was sound restful sleep. We woke
less than five minutes apart. Though it was below the <b>Freezing
Mark</b> at the time it would make it to <b>54 F</b> (<b>12 C</b>)
before supper.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I
was able to book one appointment for later this week, but
unfortunately it was not with the <b>Surgeon</b> that has yet to
contact me, even though I have left messages.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Kathy
chose to walk the building <b>H</b><b>alls</b> rather than going
<b>Store Walking</b>. The trick is to take the elevator to the top
floor before taking the stairs down one floor. You than walk to the
far end of that floor before taking those stairs down and repeating
the process until you get to the ground floor. She took her <b>Cell
Phone</b> as a <b>Safety</b> but took her time. </span></span>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">My
problem haunts me, every time I walk, it feels like the joint is
trying to separate. Massaging the area brings enough relief that I
can go a bit further. I paced the <span style="color: blue;"><b>Apartment</b></span>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I
followed the same routine last night as the <b>Two</b> before, but
didn’t have the same result. It could have been caused by the
walking we did yesterday, even though it was limited. All the <b>Doctors</b>
say to keep moving, but the <span style="color: red;"><b>Hip/Leg Pain</b></span>
tells me a different story. Of course, when you don’t sleep well
during the night, your body tries to catch up in the morning.</span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Seeing
that beautiful <b>Sun</b> lighting up the living room had us
scrambling to get moving, even though it was barely at the <b>Freezing
Mark</b> outside. By the time we finished our <b>Muffins </b>and
moved to the <b>Computers</b>, the <b>Clouds</b> had filled the sky.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Rather
than staying put we decided to run a couple of errands, with our
first being <span style="color: blue;"><b>Guardian Storage</b></span> to
collect our <b>Mail</b> before the weekend. By this time the temps
were in the mid-forties (<b>7 C</b>) and feeling comfortable.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Using
a <b>Coupon</b> we enjoyed our lunch at <span style="color: blue;"><b>Wendy’s</b></span>.
We also watched as people came and went, wondering why is that guy
walking around carrying a pair of<b> Ice Skates</b>, or how they
passed an order to the driver of a very low <b>Corvette</b>. (The
roof was at the same level as the <b>Drive-Thru </b><b>W</b><b>indow</b>.)

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We
had considered just walking around <span style="color: blue;"><b>Canadian
Tire</b></span>, until my <span style="color: red;"><b>Hip/Leg</b></span>
started screaming against the thought. </span></span>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">After
parking the <b>Car</b>, as we headed towards the rear door of our
building, we were hit in the face by <b>Wind Gusts</b>, that chilled
us to the bone. Checking the temperature <b>On-Line</b> showed we
were at <b>52 F</b> (<b>11 C</b>) that felt like <span style="color: red;"><b>Freezing</b></span>.</span></span></p>
<p align="left" class="western" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration: none; widows: 2;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The
local <b>Weather Guesser</b> showed we are into our <b>Springtime
See-Saw</b>. Tomorrow we won’t get above the <span style="color: red;"><b>Freeze
Mark</b></span>, but we’ll be back to breaking records next week.</span></span></p>
