been laughing off and on for days…

all of a sudden, a few days ago, it sounded like the computer was making a noise each time I received a text message or phone call on my iPhone…

it was kind of creeping me out…

a few nights ago, while I was on the phone with my daughter I heard it again and then I heard something fall…

that’s when I started laughing because I realized that it was the old Fitbit which I had put on the shelf in the hall and hadn’t disconnected…

it was vibrating and responding to each text and call and eventually vibrated right off the shelf…

found it on the stairs, lol…

the sun shone all day yesterday… what a treat as it has been overcast for days…

got a lovely shot of the little orchid amidst shadows at my desk…

and as I walked along the street on my way home I got a few shots of the bright light…

lots of Halloween decorations to see too…

interesting that today I got my flu shot… finally had the chance to check to see if the drug store across the street had the vaccine available…

all over the news tonight they have been talking about how tough and early this year’s flu season might be…

was part of a conversation about why a person might or might not get the shot…

for me, it has to do with my own health, but also with being in proximity of individuals who are immune compromised… I don’t want to cause someone else to get ill because I didn’t take preventive measures;-)…

I’ve had a Fitbit for 5 years and I really like it…

in that time I’ve probably had about three versions of them…

I’ve also had a few replaced due to various problems…

last week I sent them a photo of my Fitbit screen as it had been filled with gray lines for about a week…

they responded the same day and offered up a few suggestions as to what I might try… after I tried their ideas and nothing changed, they advised that my Fitbit was still under warranty so they sent me a replacement, which arrived yesterday…

last night I set it up and it is working perfectly…

they sure provide excellent customer service…

this little flower made me think of all those I know who are hanging on by a thread for a variety of reasons… even though it has been cold and snowy it is still blooming…

I was also thinking of a friend’s comment that they couldn’t pull out the plants that were still flowering in their garden, lol…

beauty is all around us, if we just take a moment to look…

I’m not sure why but I love bendy buses…

I’ve ridden in them in Ottawa, when visiting my daughter and son-in-law… there are lots of them there…

there haven’t been many here until recently…

for whatever reason they’ve been driving down the street by our office and I got a photo the other day…

not sure why, but when I see them they make me smile…

AAA Downtown Dental Clinic, big girl pants, blessed, dentist, filling, memories, moments, walk, widow

had to go to the dentist for a couple of fillings… sad face…

I am seriously stressed by dentists, but go regularly so that I don’t have any problems… clearly had a very negative experience as a child and the fear has never left me…

I’ve been going to a specialized dental office for over twenty years and still I am nervous every time I go, lol…

the nerves at this appointment came because many years ago something happened when I was getting the freezing in my upper teeth… I mentioned it, and she changed the type of medication she used and then stood and chatted with me until it was time to start the procedure… clearly an attempt to keep me calm, lol…
