Chiropodist

I've noticed that the days are getting longer, and I like that.

Well, the tire pressure light has been coming on for a particular wheel on my car once too often so I will have to take the car in to get the tire checked/repaired.

I've been checking out places in the area that do foot care for seniors, such as nail cutting. It turns out you are looking for a chiropodist/podiatrist or at least someone that is experienced with these matters. Then I'll pass the information on to my mom so she can decide what she wants to do.

My friends are telling me that Paula Abdul's new show 'Live to Dance' is a hit, very entertaining. I will have to watch the next episode. Here is a CBS preview, Paula's all heart.

I don't know why I find stories about lottery winnings fascinating. I don't buy tickets on any regular basis myself as I hate having to check them. Do you buy lottery tickets? Here are a few recent articles:

Spanish lottery player retrieves tickets worth nearly $12 million from garbage bin

First comes glee, next paperwork for lottery winners
-it seems this story has become tainted with reality. Additional claimants have come forward so payment is being delayed pending an investigation. Can you imagine knowing you've won the lottery and having to wait maybe 3 years for settlement?

I noticed that the days are getting longer too! Whoo hoo!! Almost made it through the 100 Dreadful Days of Darkess ;-)

Days are getting longer. I love that. I never play the lottery. I don't know why. I guess you can win it unless you play it. Right!

I don't play the lottery, either. Probably the biggest reason I haven't won it. :)

My mother won the lottery a few years ago (not a fortune) and buys tickets regularly. I never bother. I heard about Paula's show being really good too - good luck to her. Chirpodists are great I think your mother will like them.
