In better days when I had dollars to spend I would put all my change in cans. So that is what I use to play the lottery. Run the change through one of those money counting machines. They take about a dollar for every ten. Have attempted, in my life, to work out systems to win number games. The upshot to it all was that, say out of three numbers I could get two every time, but not the third. It was like it could not be captured. I did pick the right numbers one time. by visitation to the astral or spirit plane. I tricked my spirit into giving me the numbers. They were not too happy about that. But I still didn't win anything. I was unfamiliar with the game. It asked for box or straight play, meaning any order or exact order. I put straight. Would have won if I had put box or if I had used the exact order. They won't be fooled again, and I not going to push my luck.
Typing with my eyes closed. My eyes are botherering me. Been blurry lately, whicdh I atributd to pollen in the air. Now I am thinking it is the cdomputer sccreeens. So figure I have to take a brfeak. Stop on line reading for awhile.
No politics, no Chronicdle on line after dinner, which is now, since I am on the laptop. Just type with my eyes closed. Because I lost weith and my eyes ben blurry I called the VA last week for doctor appointment. Hadn't had a physical in ten years. I called on Tuesday afternoon and they gave me an appointmengt for nine olock nextg morning. So they gave me an eye chart test. Was going like balzes untill she said cover your left eye. I could onlyh read the top most letter. Whatg a shcock. I got a blurry right eye. Everything else good. Hadn't lost as much kweight as I thought. GTot an appointment for an eye doc. Gave my blood for blood work. Now just wait for everything to come in.
That same day I went to the city in the afternoon to housesit for Guy. First thing I did was drop the house key between the boards in the boardwalk outside the door. Had to pry up a board with a tool convenietly there. That is when I discovered my wallet was gone. I went to the street and my drivers side door but no wallet. What a bummer. I knew it was those blue pants. I had lost my wallet in my son's car between the seat and center consolse just last Mother's day. Losing the wallet was like losing my liver. I had tha wallet since 1980. when Guy gave it to me for a birthday present. Looked and looked, couldn't believe it. Went to the bank top of the hill and canceled my atm card. Ruined my little vacation there and I was so tramatized I just wrote for four days. Maybe that when I burned my eyes out. Hoping I dropped it the garage or somebody would send it to me in the mail but no luck. May never know. Now I using an Altoid can for a wallet.
Back home I had to call foodstamp card headquarters. They sending a new card. Had to the DMV. It was in the afternoon. They gave me an appointment for nine-forty the next moring. Had to fill a replacement form and pay twenty-five, I am getting killed here, and I was out of there in fifteen minutes. Amazing. Went to the bank and ordered a new atm card. Must say some fantastic service by these people and tell them so. Car registration and need smog certificate. I getting killed. Thougth today I got to get away f rom the cmputer I go down to minute oil change. He does smog. He changed the oil and did the smog test and I was in andout of the in twenty minutes. I love this guy. If Diogenes was still around searching for an honest man he is right here and maybe is what makes life worth living.
