Made It To Sunday...................

...without pigging out on anything and so far so good. Old digestive track seems to be handling everything I've thrown at it the past few days. Still would like a nice ribeye; but, that's probably further down the road..........also no veggies (the fresh variety). All in all I'm doing pretty good............well pretty good for "someone my age!)

Went to the big "give away a wallet" at casino night last night and I spent 45 minutes waiting in a line for a wallet with $5.00. Well, not all that time in line as Becky and took turns standing in line and playing the slots. The first machine I played I was ahead $48.00 so we managed to play it down to where I cashed in $10 and that combined with my $5 wallet gave us enough money to have dinner at Denny's. I tried some pancakes and B had some kind of shrimp salad. First time I've eaten out in a month.

Today was Father's Day at the casino, so we filled up with gas (at least we put in over $10.00 to turn in the casino for play points) and found the casino so crowded that we didn't want to stand in line with our gas receipts. They were giving away $100 every 1/2 hour and we spent some time there playing pennies; but, my name was never called.

Finally came home, stopped at the store and picked up some hamburger and I wolfed down a cheeseburger when we got home. Hamburger from the local store and this time we had some flavor with the meat. It doesn't pay to shop haphazardly for hamburger.

Hearing aids doing me some good (I think) 'cause I don't have the TV blaring out and I can actually make out some the words. I was curious about the VA hearing aids and today I looked them up on the internet and found they would have cost me $2700 if I had paid for them. It's taken a long time; but, I'm getting some returns from the VA!

Well, gonna kick back the rest of today and then get the M/H ready to roll in 8 or 9 days. Later. W&B
