Day the Seventeeth


Today was productive, relatively speaking. I went to bed at 4 AM and got up at 10:30 so I could wake up, get dressed, drink WATER - all because I had to have my cath. changed at 11:45. I left the house at 20 past 11 and got there just in time. I didn't even have to wait more than two minutes! I think I have found a time slot that actually works.

After that, I headed to Trader Joe's for coffee (of course) and frozen dinners and cookies (a DH request). He apparently didn't like any of my cookie choices. Funny, I felt the same way about his choices last month. [We try to go to TJ's only once a month, because the store is MADE FOR impulse shoppers! Like me, when I'm hungry. And when I go shopping, 99% of the time I am hungry.]

DH has not been in a cooking mood for a few weeks. This means we have been eating a lot of frozen entrees. Frozen entrees basically come in two flavors: Mexican and Italien. No matter what you name them, they mostly taste the same. Except for the Eggplant Parmagiana - that just tastes gnarly.

Good thing I had coconut macaroons dipped in chocolate for dessert.

Good Night, TTYL, Be Well

no sooner had i written that last post than i came  down with a  fever and a raging case of cellulitis. needless to say i was admitted into the hospital the monday before thanksgiving and stayed until  the sunday  after. i did however order a turkey dinner on thursday, and they served a special dessert! since i came home, i haven't heard from my caregiver... so i called the office and spoke with her supervisor. it turns out that she was clocking  in and out all week! that's tantamount to fraud. don't know what'll happen to her. i have had two caregivers since. both i liked, but the first one lasted only one day, and the other hasn't had much experience. i'll give her a chance and we'll see what happens. good night, ttyl, and be well.

My MS Update 2017

Image
I entered last year celebrating by watching 'new year at the needle' fireworks display (The Seattle Space Needle) on a hospital TV.  I was in there from 12/27/16 to 1/3/17 with, I believe, cellulitis and a bladder infection.  I have been in the hospital several times since then, 5/19 to 5/22  with cellulitis. I didn't have any cuts so it must have been a cat claw poke or a bug bite... any break in the skin will do for those of us who are immuno-compromised. August brought me in hospital from 8.19  to 8/25 with the perfect trifecta -  cellulitis, vaginal and bladder infections. So, how am I doing? you might ask. Well,  36 years with MS and this is my current condition. From head to toe, here goes nothing. if you are newly diagnosed let me tell you here that mine is not a typical case, but still, you may want to stop reading now. head - intermittent memory lapses; I thank the heavens for post-it notes, I have three on my laptop now reminding me...

my back yard pt. 2

Image
well. there's a new addition to the pet cemetery. last  week we lost Rajah, brother to nishita and punima who died in 2o18. he's buried adjacent to them. when dh was digging the grave, he found  a large skull of a dog (not ours), so he had to put a little more space than we would have preferred between the cats. i  imagine in thirty years or so, whoever buys the house and digs up the yard will be quite surprised. good night, ttyl, and be well in this year of COVID-19
