Sunny Skies

 Today, the sun is shining! It's wonderful. We finally got our tax returns back and I mailed them off today so hopefully we get the refunds by June 😅 work continues to be busy - we have a lot of patients getting Covid, which delays surgery and I also had covid so this month was fairly tough at work. We all feel better now, but hopefully I don't get it again! 

For the weekend I may see my family tomorrow, we're waiting to see if my sister in law comes back with a positive test or not. She is under the weather and they have two kids under 4 that go to daycare. My mom and step dad are going out today with my niece and his grand-daughter and daughter. It's frustrating because twice we have been subjected to covid because of my step dad's family and it's like they don't even care. My step dad obviously wants to see his family but they're always going out I find, and they rely on him for things to be done, he is over 80! Sigh, Let me not get started! 

Happy Weekend everyone!

Tuesday 4 Blast From the Past

Blast from the Past

 Welcome back to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4..  We are glad to have you here!

1.   If you had one million dollars to spend only on yourself, what would you spend it on? - Definitely would buy myself my own place!!! Maybe a newer condo with a low maintenance fee? Or a townhouse condo? Either way that would be it for me!! The rest would be for retirement etc :)

2.   You can do it again. What decade are you going back to and why? What's the attraction? - Oh, definitely the 80s. So much good music!! Let me see the Four Tops, the Temptations, Tina, QUEEN!

3.   What's the last song that got stuck in your head? Alternatively, what's your current favorite song? - My current favourite song is any song from Encanto - they are all so damn catchy! We Don't Talk About Bruno is a real BOP!

4.   What items do you miss from the past and wish they were still around? - I don't think I miss any items per se? Everything has come back around unless it was improved on. I do miss when items were more durable, our furnace went kaput after 12 years!

Covid Has Arrived At Home

 Well, it finally made its way in here. After over 2 years, 9 doses of vaccines between us 3, me going to work at medical places etc. And where did it come from, do you ask? A RESTAURANT ! My step dad's daughter turned 9, and they all went out to eat. 48 hours later, my mom, his daughter and son in law all felt like sh!t. Why no one told my mom that other people felt bad/had Covid I don't know... But last night she finally did another rapid and it was +. She did one Tuesday, but honestly I wondered yesterday if it had even been done right. Either way, here we are. I am wearing a mask every time I go around her, and my step dad who is now having to stay inside.

I work for an Ortho, I cannot miss work again. I am going to go in briefly on Monday, and then probably stay away until Wednesday. I feel fine. It's upsetting because my step dad has daughters who are blind. One daughter has an MRI Monday - and the concern is getting her to her appointment. Which I can appreciate, but at the same time my concern is for my MOM and my step dad really. He is 82, you should NOT be relying on him for these appointments anymore, especially during a pandemic. Take a cab, figure it out. His other daughter who MOST LIKELY HAS COVID, is saying "life needs to go on, if you test negative sunday night you can go Monday" Just, buzz OFF. This is exactly why people continue to get sick! We are not in anything remotely normal, I am lucky to have test kits and masks because I have been hoarding and ordered sooo many masks. I am just hoping my mom continues to improve and I don't get sick. Thank god it's Easter coming up this week.

Tuesday 4 - Books and Movies and TV!

 

Book and Movies and TV

 Welcome back to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4.  Just 4 questions to make you think, react and get to know your fellow bloggers who are probably way nicer than you can imagine and more interesting than we realize!

 1. Which is better... the book or the movie? - usually the book in my opinion! But if I see the movie and never read the book, then, the movie 😜

2. Got a reading list for the year?  (Or a movie list ) Found a real winner you will share with us? - no reading list, I go to the library and pick up what feels good to me!! I love the library

3. What TV shows are you watching lately? - JUNK - real housewives of new jersey, Dr Pimple Popper, I caught Bridgerton S2 and I love me the Golden Girls

4. Is there an actor or actress whose movies you consistently enjoy? - it was Ewan McGregor til he cheated on his wife. And I like Emily Blunt too. But otherwise, not really.
