It is now Feb. 23, 2022

Well, here goes.  Every Sundsy afternoon for lunch, I go to the Pillay’s house for lunch just to be with a family (they have taken legal custody of thm….one 16 and the other 13, as the parent (Net’s son) isn’t really able to look after them properly. The young one is super beautiful and very sharp, while the older is also very good looking but is ont so sharp and needs looking after. The hormones are beginning to act. The young one doesn’t Realize how beautiful she is yet. They act like two true sister, bickering with each other from time to time. The young one, Amelia, likes  to take over her dad’s phone when she can, and finishes off the data in no time. Our data is very expensive compared to America.

    Feb. 1.   I had an appointment with my neurologist. I told him that the spasms were working overtime so he gave a scrip for some quinine and some magnesium. Ai tried it for 2 weeks and didn’t see any big improvement so I stopped. But the rear purpose of the visit was to see the possibility of Botox. It is supposed to get to the nerve center and not just to be treating the symptoms. But it is very expensive, maybe too expensive, we shall see. I want to make another appointment early next month. Ha partner,

Dr. Staub is the local guru regarding when and how to use Botox. It is by injection and last for 2 or 3 months and then needs another injection.  I know that none of my parishioners could ever afford it so why should I think of it. That’s all for now. See you tomorrow, if my will power holds up.

 

   I just wrote a small reflection on this  coming Sunday’s reading which said, among other things,  how can you take the speck out of your neighbor’s eye when you have a huge log in your own eye. Yes, we can’t see our own blind spots. And I find that, as Lent approaches----next week is Ash Wednesday….I still have lots of work to do to be able to claim to at least trying to be a half way decent Christian.

I must put this in the blog now or it will be subject to my procrastination (another of the things I have to work on. Ha.
