Oh Yeah ! I Have a Phone Camera






































































It was a pleasant walk home this afternoon with bright sunny skies and above freezing temperatures. I forgot my camera, then I remembered my phone camera! I guess my old school mentality can't get use to having a phone that does twenty things.

Above you can see how the snow has piled up The top photo was taken in front of my house. I don't have a car, so my parking spot is vacant. It is used as a communal snow dumping area by my neighbours . I don't mind, since it prevents the usual weirdos from parking in front of my place. The last photo above is an abandoned church I don't know the name of it. All the times I have walked past and never bothered to check that out.


Below is an interesting building on my street, Central Public School . Built back in the days when we cared what public building looked like.
















































Now public money goes to bail out crooks, with no strings attached. We will regret it. If you don't believe me, read what the Cassandra's at Asia Times have to say about it. Yeah they are over the top but at least they have a different perspective. Unlike our own media. They seem to be going along with whatever the government says. It is not the job of media to be cheer leaders. They should be casting a critical eye on what is happening and informing us, the ones who will end up paying for everything.

Slowly we are creeping toward the end of January. At work management is quiet, no word from the union, the medical officer and Health Canada are silent. I'm waiting till the end of the month to ask about what is going on with my medical. Usually no news, is good news. In my case, no news is driving me crazy !

Winter Blues

Winter is here even though the calendar says different. It's bitter cold out and I had to give in and wear a heavy coat, hat, and gloves today. What I don't like about that is I get overheated walking to work and it takes me a good half hour to recover once I'm inside.
I think the cold affects me as much as the heat . I was a wreck this evening and the odd tingling and leg twitches are back . I thought the Amantadine had taken care of that. Is it possible that the drug is wearing off ?

Wednesday is flu shot day. I know some doctors say you shouldn't get a flu shot if you have MS, as it triggers your immune system and can aggravate symptoms. My answer to that is the flu does that too and makes me feel so sick I want to die . I'm also told the flu shot is only 40% effective. Were do they get these numbers ?

Last time I had the flu I ended up in the hospital, so I'll take my chances with the shot and if 40% means that one bug passes me by, that's good enough.

I can't post any photos to my blog until I get the proper photo program on this computer. I don't like the one that's on here, yet I'm way too tired to do anything about it right now.
I really hate feeling like this all the time.
