Patrick Swayze. Rest in Peace.
I can’t let the day go without a small note about Patrick Swayze. This makes me so sad, even though I never knew him. I liked his movies, thought he was great. Super nice man, so the world says. And married to his wife for 30 plus years.
It’s really unfair that he gets one of the worst diseases known to man and then fights it for almost two years, but in the end it still gets you. I know pancreatic cancer is one of the baddies because I watched my dad die from it for a year and a half and it was not fun. It’s extra sad when Patrick started looking like my dad. It’s like the famous version of someone I already lost.
This is the best link to a nice story and memories of Patrick that I found. And it adds a little happy to a really sad thing. Keep dancing forever…RIP.
Street Money Update!
Enjoy these silly postings because they will be few and far between soon. Few and far between soon. Say that five times fast. That’s alot of description words or conjunctions or something…anyway…I’m losing the steam for being able to do all I want when I want. The time is short. Even shorter than I realized a week ago. But this is not about that. This is about money. On the street. So here’s the count. Today and yesterday.
Found my lucky penny yesterday before school, but it was only half lucky.
And today was a nickel and dime day. Nickel on the street. Dime at the Walgreen’s. It was on the outside under a mat in a crack. (If you read this post kind of sing-songy it sounds like Dr. Suess)
So the total for now is 16¢
More Money! The BF found three cents today! AND he picked it up! It counts! That brings us to 19¢! Oh my!
Dodge Challenger 18. And 19, 20, 21.
That’s kind of unfair to grab them off a car lot, but they were displayed so enticingly and so here they are.

Now this is bad when I can’t even keep up with my vehicle I don’t own and probably never will even though I want one really really badly but can’t afford it now and not ever in any near future time is ticking.
It’s blue and cool.
Street Money Update!
It gives me luck and fills me with hope.
That is asking alot of some loose change I find on the ground. Which I did. Saturday and today. One cent and one cent.
It just keeps rolling in right??
I should not be here. And, belated, posted, birthday wishes.
I should be doing mad blood pressures and apical pulses.
Another week of school, another set of tests and skills! Today is the written. Complete. Passed. Still in A category. It is only fourth week though…I feel good and I love this stuff! Tomorrow are the skills. And a mini-written test. That was a surprise, but I am prepared. I got pulses down. Blood pressures can be tricky, especially if the equipment is bad or I make a sudden move! All the noises blob into one big bump! And that ain’t right!
At any rate. Yesterday was the sissies B-day!
Happy Birthday N.!! (Sorry you had to be lumped in with my news!)
I have two sissies. This was the closer-aged one. The whole family was there for the par-tay and the whole family let me practice squeezing them and pulsing them. Sounds so dirty and yet it was not. I think I did pretty good considering the noise level (loud) and the activity going on around (crazy loud) and the participants unwillingness to be quiet and calm for one minute in a row! Love!
It all worked out perfect. The real world is not quiet and willing to sit still for me. And it makes me better(?!?) TBD.
Here’s a picture of an Oscar, probably wishing for freedom (or death). Fish are calming.
