The ups and downs of my life in Assisted Living

Caesar salad minus shrimp steamed carrots couscous It doesn't sound like much, but I was too full for dessert (Key lime pie!). I have to find a way to eat less (I left a plate half full of food--what a waste!), but I'm not sure how to do that.  TJ. is the only waiter who can adjust my meals.  I guess that I'll have to be more forceful about what I want.  I'll try at dinner.

With Beth, just outside the dining room. so-called poached egg (which was cooked hardly at all, but which I ate anyway). Toast (not buttered.  Beth scouted around to find a plate of butter). Baked potato (forgot to put the sour cream on it until too late). Baked carrots Tea That's about it.  Interesting lunch! Then Beth took me on a "tour" of the lower level garden where I've never been. And took me in the stroller for a nice walk. A good day! Hope that I wake up in time for our puzzle!

Just called the front desk about staples, and Colleen will save a few for me! Nice people around here!

Ordered stuffed mushroom, but this is what I was given: shrimp (ate two) green beans (undercooked, ate two pasta (didn't eat) chocolate pudding (ate half) Maybe dinner will be better!

The most amazing salad!  Mixed greens with red onions, blueberries, strawberries, feta cheese, sweetened pecans, shrimp, and a really exceptional dressing. So good!

I never can find the volume when I try to watch movies.  How does that work? Always something to complain about!
