Plantar Fasciitis / Ollie's / Domino's

Finally no strong winds last night but I still struggled to fall asleep. Went outside early to feed the cats and put out the trash. I honestly have no idea where my day goes as before I knew it...it was 3:30 p.m. the winds had once again started and I had not gotten ready to run errands.

For those new to my blog, I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis on both feet last year. It is an extremely painful condition, especially on my right foot. There is no cure for it, you can do exercises to alleviate it to some extent though that has not worked well for me. Another treatment requires injections on my feet...that is NOT going to happen!

Ollie's is a discount store that opened last year it carries items to deal with this malady at much cheaper prices than Walmart or HEB.  Ollie's buys in bulk from other stores that are going out of business or directly from manufacturers and passes the savings to their customers.

I was lucky to find the last night support for my condition at the very affordable price of $3.99...

Picked up a couple of other items before they sell out including a wonderful body lotion that smells divine and hydrates my skin. Ollie's also carries a large selection of As Seen On TV products.

I was starving to death so I stopped at Domino's to buy my favorite cheat on my diet food....PIZZA!

I am happy to report that it was delicious!!! 😋

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Saying of the Day

A week in review

Since I started watching "La Casa de Los Famosos" I have gone back to my old sleeping habits which involve staying up to the wee hours of the night to watch the fights and controversies that make daily headlines in the Hispanic channels in the USA but even more so in México and Latin American countries. It is also popular in Spain, Portugal, and Turkey.

You see the inhabitants of LCDLF which is a version of Big Brother VIP have no idea what time it is.  Right now they are having dinner and it's past midnight...it's a good thing they exercise all day!

My foot pain has kept me at home. We are low on milk but I do have powdered whole milk though I need to drink skim milk.

Last Friday I went to México...you can read about it here https://mylittlewalter.blogspot.com/

Yesterday I took a tumble when I tripped over the cat crates that I had left in the mudroom. I was in a lot of pain and it took me a while to be able to get up off the floor. I scrapped my left knee and hand but I guess I am lucky I did not further injure my right foot.

Today I had to make a trip to the post office...to the one on the northside of town...not where our P.O. Box is at. It is located close to Domino's...I have been craving pizza for months, actually, it has been at least two years since I last ate one. Decided to treat myself to the one that has everything on it...its name escapes me at the moment. I savored every bite and have plenty left over to eat later in the week.

I went the Ollie's to purchase a pet seat protector for the back seat of my car. I bought one a couple of years ago but I have pretty much trashed it and you could not beat the price. I wanted to make a quick stop at HEB but my foot started hurting so decided to come home.

We had high wind gusts all day that finally subsided by nightfall and there are plenty of broken limbs but it will be a while before I pick them up.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Funnies

Dependent on a To Do List

For some reason, I have been waking up very early lately.  Have I mentioned that I am not a morning person?  I even considered driving to Stripes to buy breakfast tacos and hot chocolate...but the thought of having to get dressed and then put on make-up made me change my mind.

These days I need to make a To Do List or I will forget a thing or two. Yesterday I forgot to go by the bank!  So like it or not I had to make another trip to town this afternoon. 

This is the third time I go to Dollar Tree looking for bread but found none.  However, I found so many other items...I saved a ton! 

I was reading a new blog to me "Our Awesome Travels"  https://geosuzie.blogspot.com/2019/02/blue-sunny-skies-still-cool-wind-silly.html
and they blogged about their trip to a local pizzeria called "Silly Al's Pizza".

It has been a while since I had pizza so I headed to Domino's and came home with one. Truth be told it was not that good...too bad Silly Al's Pizza is very far away :-(

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

What can I say?  You can not win a game if you have so many turnovers. Teams need to be able to win on the road!!!

Another beautiful day

It was another beautiful sunny day. Got a second pick-up reminder from Walmart so decided to head that way but wanted to stop at Whataburger for a late lunch. It was packed and their parking spaces are much too narrow.  I guess I could have parked next door at my mother's optometrist's office but decided to pass.

I asked mother what she wanted to eat for dinner and she said pizza which surprised me. I guess she thought that is what I wanted as she had no idea I was going to eat at Whataburger.  I usually purchase mine at Domino's just personal preference.

The girl that took my order was not very bright. I had to repeat my order three times. She said it would be ready in 20 minutes and it took 45.  I ordered one pizza and they made two. I ordered a Philly steak sandwich ...she gave me something else with pineapple and jalapeños. The only thing she got right was the pasta and that is only because they did not bake it and I had to wait some more.  Domino's if you are listening...please turn down the music it might help your order takers. Note to self:  Do not order pizza on a Spurs game day.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.


Spurs Corner

We are finally on track again. Though I am a little worried about our upcoming game with Utah on Tuesday.

Who schedules the NBA games?  It does not make any sense to me that we have to play the Lakers on Wednesday in Los Angeles and then turn around and play them again on Friday in San Antonio.                   

What a difference a day makes

Yesterday we had a high of 92 and tonight it is supposed to get down to 33 degrees.  As I type this it is 36 degrees but feels like it was 29.  For me that is pretty darn cold.

I drove dad's old car into town today...had driven for about four miles when I reached the first stop light.  It felt like it wanted to die...at the next stop light it did die...but started right back up.  Wonder what is wrong with that crazy car?

Went to Wal-Mart and when I came out...the front had arrived...the wind was blowing like crazy. Bet the temperature dropped at least 25 degrees and of course I did not have my jacket with me. Was going run more errands but decided they could wait and went to Domino's Pizza instead, then headed straight home.

Once more turned on the central heater and it will remain on for at least the next two days.  I do not do cold weather except in Terlingua around a roaring campfire...I sure do miss my favorite desert and my friends :-(

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
