Teletubbies

Mary's watching the Teletubbies. She adores them! I always hated them, abhorred them, really, but I stumbled on them one day on TV and Mary seemed interested. She just repeats over and over, "Aren't they cute?" and chuckles. I think they fascinate her because they look adn act like babies. I think there needs to be a baby channel, just like there's Animal Planet and the Food Channel.

We were supposed to go to St L today, but Mary has "the diahrrita" and I had a migraine all night, so we're going to wait. She had heart burn last night around 10:30, and I should have given her an Immodium. She'll say that she's starving hungry and has to have something right away. She's got an appointment with a GI on Thursday and I was going to cancel it--since we were going to St L, but also since the cardiologist seemed to "fix" things. However, this proves to me that there's another problem going on that needs to be addressed. Mom was really pessimistic and asked what good it would do, but I think we might as well try. Maybe he can tweak her medications like the cardiologist did.

I actually felt good yesterday. I noticed that I felt lighter and actually optimistic or even joyful. That was due in part to the fact that the place whereI take my recycling now accepts plastic numbers 1 through 7. I'm just so happy about that! It makes me feel that life is improving, that our society is making progress.
