Some days.

I didn't call the V.A. I had a small window of time to call them and something came up. I thought about calling some of the other numbers but found myself befuddled. While she had written numbers she hadn't written which was for which. The only one that I was sure about was an email to the Knights of Columbus leader. I did send him an email. While I am at the V.A. tomorrow, If I can speak after an extended dental visit, I will find out who might be able to begin a review process. What I need to do to get that going. Perhaps even schedule a hearing or review or whatever.

Today has been a rough one. Nothing I did was terribly difficult. I am simply struggling to keep my eyes open and have been the whole day. That hasn't helped with making phone calls. Especially when I am not sure why I am talking to whomever might answer, for certain, should I call. I'll get to it, soon. I wanted to sleep so badly at around 16:00 it almost hurt. I did a few things to try and rouse myself. I am at the end of the line though, but made it to nearly 21:00. That freshly made bed is sounding better all the time.

I think I am going to begin adding the powerball, hand strengthener, into my routine. I don't think I will do it every day, possibly just three days a week. I used the easier one first, to see if I could still do it. I was able to use it in each hand while watching and listening to "About to Happen" per hand. I took a break while listening to "Careless Love". Then used the more potent device while listening and watching "Into a Swan", again, per hand. I was surprised, after not using them for about a year, that I was able to do over six minutes of exercises with the devices in each hand. Anyway, that is what I did to revive myself when I was about to nod off.

Now for dishes, my night routine, then bed. I certainly hope tomorrow is better. I mostly just have travels, perhaps with a few phone calls when I return. Oh, I did find several Churches in the area, with a noon mass. I picked one and added it to my contacts which means my phone can direct me to it if I wanted to get all techy. I think I'll just look at the map, look at the address, and go. I suppose this will make my three times a week quota but it doesn't cover the Sabbath. All good, I missed the third Mass last week. If possible, whenever I am in town from now on, I will make Mass. Just not the same Church each time. It's not fair to pick on just one Church!

Good night. I hope you got some of what you wanted to do completed. Sleep well.

That was fast. I received an email back from the leader of the Knights. It said to call, so I did. It seems I am fortunate. I seem to qualify and they are having a ceremony this Saturday after Mass for new recruits. Usually I would have to drive some great distance, to wherever the next ceremony might be... and have to wait until they were having it. Either the man I contacted, or another, will be contacting me to get together and fill out the form tomorrow or the day after. There is a monthly meeting, volunteer positions for things from time to time, and activities whenever they are needed or wanted. It won't be a great deal of opportunity. Then again I don't think I am ready for heavy duty tri-weekly events on a heavy schedule, either. I will need to ease these things in. Especially time sensitive things. More, it will be a chance to get to meet some of the locals. And, it's odd this way, but men sometimes know women. Hey, just... thinking.
