And, now it's December...

I woke up at 4:00 AM on Tuesday, December 1. I guess I went to bed too early last night. I tried falling back asleep, but finally gave it up and got dressed to take the garbage out. You may have noticed this is a big event in my life right now (sigh).

After assembling the real garbage, I emptied the kitty litter pan and then refilled it. I remarked to myself that the full moon threw a beautiful light through my east windows. It was not so beautiful trudging out in 33 degrees F. with three bags of garbage, though.

I ground up some coffee beans and made a pot. While that was getting ready, I laid back on the bed and read the food magazine I got in yesterday's mail. I dozed off (of course) and woke up for real at 10:30 AM.

I still want to make some homemade bread, so I redid my mixture using "fast rising" yeast. It now has to sit for 8-18 hours.

I shaved and showered and then dressed for my evaluation at the Rehab place. I had some difficulty with the change (as of today) with my insurance. She never did get through to see if I owe a co-pay (I didn't before), but we agreed to decide that on my next visit.

The therapist put me through hell and decided I need at least three or four weeks of therapy, so here we go again...

I cooked a frozen pizza for dinner, after adding some red pepper flakes and more mozzarella cheese. I ate about half of it watching the new Celtic Woman show on PBS. I was ticked because, according to the TV listing it ended at 10:00 PM, so my recorder shut off. But, it really lasted until 11:00 PM, so I missed taping a whole hour of the show!

I went to bed disgusted and then had the weirdest dream.

I dreamt I was a knight and living in New Haven, Michigan. I rode my horse to the local gas station and, after removing all my armor and weapons, donned a hooded cloak and borrowed an old horse to do some spying with my Captain for tomorrow's battle.

I got back to my farmhouse and was just getting ready to go to sleep when it dawned on me I'd left all my weapons, my armor and my good horse at the gas station! I woke up in a panic at 4:00 AM, here in Redford. It took a long time to calm down and go back to sleep...
