Robert's workout program

I have been working out in our apartment and have been doing it for a while.  I remember a time I couldn't do it because I didn't have the right equipment for it but since I got my resistant bands, I am able to workout in the house.  I don't mind it.  In fact, I actually enjoy it even though I don't have the proper equipment only those resistant bands.

Robert's doctor was suggesting that he should go to the YMCA to the swimming pool to do a little swimming.  Robert is a little stiff in his joints and also another problem is that Robert does not know how to swim so that could be a problem.  However, it will help him with his motivation with moving his legs and arms.  I don't know what Robert wants to do.  I don't think he would go there by himself.  I suppose that I could go there and check it out as well as support him on this.  I don't really want to see kids and listening to them scream and all that.  So what I have done for him is that I had set up a schedule for him to workout twice a week.  Robert doesn't have to workout like I do so I had created this two day workout program so he could workout in the house.  Perhaps it will help him out.  Now I just have to give him set days to do this.

College Complete

Well I had finished college for my associates degree in Arts. I can’t believe it's been two years. So now I was waiting for my degree to come into the mail but after tracking down my diploma through the tracking number then I found out that after 2 attempts UPS returned to the post office. I made several phone calls to the school, UPS, and local post office. UPS told me that after 2 attempts, they would send it to local post office for a 3rd attempt. So I called up local post office again to see if they delivered the diploma. By that time my degree was on its way back to University Of Phoenix. I was told by the school that I should wait for a week until they got the diploma and if they received it when I call then they could issue me out another one. So I called them up and they issued me out another diploma. I had gotten the diploma within a week.

The past two years has been a stressful time in school. I am glad it's over but now what I am going to do?  I have been practicing with my web designing.  Will have to see what I could do with my skills.

Dentist

April 10, 2013

This is the day that both Robert and I had to get our teeth done at the dentist.  We don’t go to the same dentist.  He has to go down to Boston since his insurance covers the school down there. 

I was really concerned about him going down there by himself, thinking that he could fall and have trouble getting up, not to mention about the Boston Bombing Marathon which happened Monday.  I had tried to get him out of the idea of going down there by himself.  We didn’t even know what it would be like down there.  I actually thought the station down there would be closed down.  But I guess it wasn’t.  He kept me informed all day whenever he had the chance to let him know that he was okay. 

Luckily that he doesn’t have to go back down there until September.  Hopefully by that time, they will have the new school opening and he wouldn’t have to go down to Boston. 

Easter Sunday 2013

Last week of college

Well this is the last week of college.  I then receive Associates degree in Internet Technology.  Craig is happy that I had finally completed the two years and I could say that I am happy myself.  I am so burnt out from it.  I was going to go for my Bachelor’s Degree but I was discussing with my sister and she had suggested taking time out of school for a while.  So that is what I am going to do.   Actually what I was thinking of doing is to start painting like Bob Ross since I am very good with my hands.  I had also thought about going back to crocheting as well.  I am very good with my hands, and I miss crocheting and sketching out pictures.  I figured that I would try painting because I think I would be good at it.  I used to watch Bob Ross shows all the time back in the 80s.  I also started creating sample websites perhaps I could use those in my next interview or get jobs from people that is interested in me to design their website.  So we’ll see.

Trip to the dentist

Well yesterday, was my turn to go to the dentist.  I know I have to get a lot of work down on my jaw.  I need to get all my jaw teeth out since they are all falling out due to shifting all the time.  So yesterday they took out 3 teeth.  I never had more than 1 tooth out at a time.  The plan is to get dentures.  I’ll be so delighted once I get my dentures because I have been pretty much embarrassed and not able to smile without my mouth looking like a jack-o-lantern.  I’m still in pain and I will not be able to eat or drink anything that is hot the next few days. 

Dentist in Boston

Craig has been going back and forth to Boston University Dentistry School, because his insurance covers his teeth down there.  I’m not sure why there is no dentist up here in Maine that covers his insurance, it doesn’t make any sense at all.  Each time he goes down there, I would worry about him wondering if he would be okay down there on his own.  Luckily his trip down there his insurance covers for the traveling expenses to get on the Concord Trailways bus, but he would have to pay for the cab back and forth to the school. 

A couple of days ago he had to go back to Boston, I was going to go with him but I was really tired since I didn’t sleep well that night before.  He normally calls me several times to make sure that he is okay.  He knows that I worry about him going down there and I wish he doesn’t have to go down there. 

Apparently, according to Craig, that there is going to be a dentist up here in August so that his insurance will be able to cover for it up here so he doesn’t have to always go down to Boston all the time. 

Next Friday he will have to go down there once again.  I think I will go with him next Friday since next week is my last week for school and then I would be able to go with him to places without worrying about assignments being due.
