DID I MISS.....?

 



Did I miss Valentine's Day? Love is very often misconstrued. Methinks it's merely infatuation or lust. Infatuation fades quickly when reality sets in. Lust can.....last....

I've been infatuated dozens of times. I've been in lust hundreds of times. Really.

I've been in deep, passionate, unrelentingly devoted true love only once. Until death do us apart.

And that person is now gone, having died much too young.

There are no happy endings.


Nothing new here. I'm still trapped in this #*!!%#**!! Gainesboro rehab facility (you fill in the blank).

The horrific "wound" on my ankle still drains and bleeds. I had two bouts of antibiotics. It is VERY  painful and never heals.

Today the wound care nurse said it's looking better.

It's impeding me from having physical therapy. Among other things.

I'm not in the mood to write about "other things".

Dinner, anyone?

One of the workers here told me that Walmart now delivers perishable food here, like they do in Jamestown.

The thing is, Signature Health Care in Jamestown is about a mile from Walmart.

Here in Gainesboro, the nearest Walmart is 30 miles away, in Algood (that's the name of the city). A big difference.

In Jamestown I got fresh food quickly.

Here in Gainesboro..........

Well, 

last Sunday I ordered deli food from Wlmt. It was supposed to be delivered at 4:00 p.m.

Got a delayed message.

And another one.

My food finally arrived at 7:00 p.m. I wasn't angry. Unexpected things happen.

I had a apple and walnut salad and a New York deli sub. A bottle of Coke and a nutrition drink.

The apple/walnut salad has long been my favorite.


Apple slices, candied walnuts, cranberries, chicken, blue cheese.....a sweet onion vinaigrette dressing. (sp?)

Unfortunately it was wilted and not fresh, but I ate every morsel.

The Coke tasted good because the company finally improved the flavor.....using the old flavor.

Nutrition drink?

I aways buy Bolthouse (curious name), they never use preservatives or anything artificial.

They have other unusual flavors, but chocolate is my fave (don't you hate people who use unnecessary abreviations?).

The deli sub sandwich didn't taste fresh at all. So late in the day, I undoubtedly got the last of everything.

So....

will I order deli food from Wlmt. again? 

Hell, yea. I'm a masochist.

waiting to see how many people liked this post, compared to the precious three (or was it four?) who loved my previous post.

Relax. It's only bleak sarcasm.
