Daily Food Diary – Day 309 of 365

This is Day 309 of my Daily Food Diary! 🙌

This entire week seems to be more challenging than most. 

On Monday, Dan went indoor golfing.    Molly and I stayed home to host a full grown sparrow who swept into our house.  It took THREE hours but Molly finally herded it out the back door.

Tuesday, Dan and I went shopping.  That wasn’t particularly challenging, but a change of scenery and my typical daily routine.

Yesterday, I picked-up granddaughter Prim  at lunch time and took her to a dental appointment later in the afternoon.  All went well enough, but she was given a serious amount of freezing for one small cavity.  Poor kid looked rough coming out of the dentist’s office.

Today, things were supposed to get back to normal!  But, after daughter Jen left for work,  her daughter  Prim decided to go back to bed for a quick nap.  🤦 When the school called Jen to report her MIA, Jen called us to go check on her and get her to school.  So Dan and I headed over.  On the way there, Dan saw what looked like a person (big person) laying half on a sidewalk/half on the street.  It was on a side street that we don’t take and there was fairly steady traffic going past him.  We went straight to Jen’s house, got Prim to school, and Dan detoured to the side street to check on the other situation on our way back.

The guy was still there, looking like he hadn’t moved.  Dan dove past him a couple of times and stopped beside him.   There was no sign of life, and no response when Dan called to ask if he needed help.    I called 911 to ask if they could have someone to check on him.  They sent an ambulance and a fire department paramedic vehicle right away.   We waited there until they arrived  – mostly because he was half a block from Prim’s school and we were concerned that some kid could happen along.   When the paramedics did arrive, one of them called the guy and tried to shake him.  He sat up (fairly quickly, but a bit befuddled).  We got out of there and headed home.  Hopefully, the guy is ok and the paramedics were able to get him safely on his way to somewhere. 🤷

The rest of my day should get back on track.  I’m about to have lunch, then do time on the treadmill, followed by a round of weights – followed by finally spending some time getting our kitchen cupboards in order.
