Like my new color?


I'm just letting the days float by without saying a thing. Truth is, I've been sleeping too much again. I know. I can't say I have insomnia, I just don't want to sleep at night. I sleep very well during the day, however. Grrr.

I haven't been doing too much of anything since my lunch and visit to Big Lots and TJ's. I realized that I forgot to get crackers at TJ's, though. Oh well. I don't need more to snack on, that's for sure.

Sorority installation is at the next meeting, May 7, and I've been asked to write a few things about our chapter president. Funny thing is, the social chairman asked me to come up with about five minutes to honor her at our Mother's Day luncheon which is May 9. So that's what I have been working on, and so far it has some good bones, I just need to fill it in a bit. Naturally, I will leave that until the last minute as I seem to like to work under deadline pressure. (Isn't that what all procrastinators say?) So, I'll just write the short version for the meeting/installation so I can give it to those who need it, and worry about the longer version next week. Of course, being so close together, many people are going to be hearing some repetition. Wish me luck.

Which reminds me that I don't have one warm Springy thing to wear to the luncheon; I guess this means a trip for me to T.J. Maxx. Last year I went there and found a very trendy cute 3/4 sleeve short jacket in coral, which I wore once and then returned. [I returned it only because it was dry clean only, and the fabric wouldn't stand up to being washed and ironed. and I can't afford to have dry cleaning bills] I can do that again, I guess, HOWEVER, I will try to find something inexpensive to keep. Oy vey, shopping - it makes me so very tired. Maybe I can get somebody to go with me.

I am seeing a theme developing here in my life: needing someone to go with me. It's a recurring issue that needs tending. Perhaps I'll try again to get an assistant through DSHS. Of course, now that their budget has been ripped to shreds, chances are that I won't. But I can try. Have nothing to lose.

Good Night, TTYL and Be Well

    Dear Webster,

    Thanks for joining my blog...I've enjoyed taking a look at yours. I wish I knew how to do stuff like add funny pictures, etc...but I'm a real computer dummy. Sounds like we have a lot in common about being frustrated at all the things that are easy for other people and major hassles for us!

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

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
