Exhausted, relieved yet still frustrated at my partners Dr.

I am happy.

I am feeling much better, in a way, than I was. I finally got the painful kidney stone out. The procedure had been delayed due to the hospital's equipment issues, and I suffered for a couple of weeks until they could get that worked out. It was okay. I had meds for the pain/discomfort, and it was quite a bit disconcerting to have been pee'ing blood for that entire time, but all's well that ended well with that. But then.....
I found out, after my kidney stone removal, that I had developed two clots that had traveled to my lungs (pulmonary embolisms), so my hospital stay for the kidney stone removal ended up being 4 days longer than we thought. The clots, both of them, are NOT in the greater pulmonary blood vessels, so that was a piece of good news. Incidentally, I have always been at a greater risk for developing these types of clots, due to my having had 9 surgeries, including the replacement of both of my knees, with revisions. So, the good part is that they found the embolisms in good time and I am currently undergoing both oxygen and anticoagulant therapy with that drug, Xarelto. That drug is so frippin' expensive that a great many folks just cannot afford it, even with the best health/medication coverage. Even with my excellent health insurance (I'm a retired federal employee), the copay for this medication was/is $400 for a 30 day supply. So, I called the VA and got them to approve and prescribe this medication for me right away. I'm a very lucky guy, in that these embolisms/clots were found before they could have really f*cked me up, or even killed me and.......that I have full VA/military benefits that can get me the medications and care that I need with no expense to me. I've always said..... G-d is, indeed, very, very good. :winky: So, my most sincere thanks to out to all of my friends here who have been keeping me in their thoughts and prayers, and to those who have reached out in loving support to me. Believe me, it certainly is strengthening to know that I have friends and a community that is behind me, 150%. Ya'll are great!!!! Thank you, everyone!!! :cheer: ~Theo~ :heartbeat::bouquet: |
I am as giddy as a tinder hook up getting his "balls played with"..... lol omg..
(things you hear when your neighbors are having sex.... glad somebody is gettin some.....) sigh |
Tired and looking forward to the morning when I wake up only to roll back over and sleep some more.
|
fantabulous!!!!!!!!!
|
Bored and caged.
I need to find some fun. Maybe Monday....I never used to be so dull.:blink: |
Human! After four months I finally got a haircut. :mohawk:<<>>:buzz cut:
|
I'm stressed because there's a mouse in my apartment and I don't want to kill him. I want him to live his mouse life freely and openly, just not with me. So I set up some no-kill traps and I'm hoping I'll be able to release him into the wild when he finds his way into one. But I also know I'm squeamish with rodents, so I might be a mess... *channeling strong independent woman who handles mice ethically and effectively*

Like I am improving! I made it up and down the stairs twice every day for the last four days! Plus, I am doing my PT. And, my lungs don't seem to be as full of stuff these days as they were since the pneumonia.
|
Okay. Tired. Relieved. Tired.
|
Rodent update: He left of his own accord!! The best of all possible scenarios!
|
Sleepy... always sleepy.
|
Tired. And very happy! I get a reprieve! Tomorrow will be day #13 of working. I was told to take the weekend off. I had to shake my head and say..the weekend ?? Like Sat AND Sun??
Happy dance! Sleep in mornings!! |

Feeling very unhappy. Knee injury is a torn LCL which in time will heal. Dr. says cold compresses and I have to start physio this coming week. Head is called a concussion with pulsatile tinnitus. Have no idea of cause as of yet. I think maybe going back into my cave is now called for.

Hopeful.
Hoping that peaceful demonstrators are not harmed by Trump's Storm Troopers.... and that the Fascist, Neo-Nazi agitators get dragged off, arrested, identified as what they are and Trump is left with one more nasty lie smeared on his surgically faked-up face. |
Every bone in my body hurts. Can't do weekend warrior stuff anymore without paying for it. My wife, however, texted me and said when she gets home from work she is getting out the massage table and working on me. I love this woman. Spoiled I am.

Feeling like a ...

totally bummed. Today, I guess, is the last day of my sewing machine. I just bought some new fabric pieces to make more masks. My first go around of masks were from scraps I had in my stash. Now is the time for more, fashionable masks, since we are going to wear them for some time.
All set up, cut out, ready to go and my machine decides to freeze up. Now what? Lol |

Feeling very happy and relieved as I just heard that there are no new virus diagnosis on my island home. The stats are great for the people. 15,000 tests done, 261 confirmed cases, 258 cleared cases and only 3 deaths. All of this since the pandemic started. No new cases in over 3 weeks. If you go there you have to isolate for 2 weeks even if you are from there, which is great in my opinion.
We are surrounded by the Atlantic ocean on the island and the mainland part is Labrador and is to the N. and W. of the island. NFLD is an island north of the coast of Maine U.S.A. Summer temps. around 65 to 70 and sunny. |
Went for a walk just now. Passed 5 people on my block. All were wearing masks and even stepped off the sidewalk to maintain social distancing. Made me proud and hopeful for my community.

Was talking to my cousin and feeling very homesick. Nice cool weather, no crowds and traffic, walks on the beach and watching the ocean. Fresh food and nice folks to chat with. I miss my friends there. Brother is getting ready to go but I think he has a bit of a wait.
|
Refreshed.
Daddy whisked us away on a surprise spontaneous trip to Lake Placid for the weekend and it was just what we needed. I have today off of work too so I'm going to be extra re-charged when I go back to work tomorrow. |

F a n t a s t i c......... |
Blessed to have another day and the ability to leave the world just as or better than I found it.
|
I am feeling really sad.
I just heard a bit ago, and it was verified, that Abigail Crabby has passed away. Sunnydee Kotaros.....I do not know of any details. RIP, Sunny Girl! Soar with the angels |
I feel anxious and uncertain today... Almost to the point of panic.
|
Feeling

Good. Was able to get out of two meeting today.
Weekly meetings are things I won't miss. :bow: |
Just fine thank you and once I take all these meds and drink a beer, I'll feel even better.
|
Content - with a warm kitty sleeping next to my knee.
|
I feel better.

Feeling sick of the condition our beautiful world is in. Let us all be patient and steadfast to try to heal her. Life is not always fair but its the only one we have, lets respect it and try to get along with one another.
|
Full bored ready to get back to work. Ready to use my camper did I mention full? I think my grits blew up like popcorn in my belly.
