Bullet Items (to catch you up)

  • i still  haven't heard from my doc re: the mobility assessment, and I haven't done anything about that this week.
  • that's probably because i have to have a colonoscopy friday; nothing fills your week with dread more than that.
  • unless it is this: i went out to my car wednesday so i could go to the pharmacy to pick up the Suprep stuff (that I have to drink to clear me out), and the car won't start. this is why i was concerned about going to Seattle last week. my car is 24, and not very well. i'm letting it rest until i'm done with the, well, you know.
  • i just finished the first half of the prep. i'm tired, and i wanna go to bed which i will do as soon as i finish this.
  • you know what? i am so tired that i can't type worth a shit right now, so i will post this as a kind of teaser and let you know later how ...it all comes out.
Good Night and TTYL

    Can't WAIT! I want a colo so bad! Just so many transfers I'd have to do...how many? I must know. I'll fast liquid b4...how do they expect ppl in wheelchairs to do the prep. KK did it, I am so jealous. She didn't have to drink all the prep either. Bitch. (oh, sorry) I'll be on the edge of my loo waiting to hear how it goes. Have you done it b4? Good luck, mate! CHEERS!

    good luck. Lots of it. And I came across a wonderful word for explaining our form of fatigue 'exhaustipation' which was defined as too tired to give a sh_t.

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.

More Snow!

That's my big news for y'all. We had a lovely smattering of snowfall, and it was lovely indeed, mostly because I wasn't going out in it, and because it wasn't sticking to the streets around here. So I just sat here in my swivel glider and watched the birds at the feeder outside the window, and we didn't just have sparrows and chickadees today, we had a lovely pair of Steller's Jays that seemed grateful for the free food. We can't use our kitchen sink, and DH is taking his sweet time fixing it. It got clogged Saturday, not with coffee grounds, but with a sludge of oils from the coffee grounds we've washed down the drain for the last 18 years. First he plunged it; then he took the pipe apart to check out the clog; then he went to L0we's to buy a drain auger (a snake) yesterday; this evening he finally starts working on it and discovers that the hot water hose is leaking, so he just got back from L0we's with a replacement and is mumbling in the kitc...

Today is Day One

Tomorrow I have a cath. change at 11:45, followed by my first Solumedrol infusion at this new clinic, which I believe is in the same building at 1:40. I have a friend who is spending a few days with me who will go with me just so she has something to do. I'm sure it will make it go faster. So that's what's up with me, and now I am actually going to go to bed at 1:15 AM. I mean, I'll start to get ready as soon as I sign off here, but I should be in bed and, hopefully, asleep, by 2 AM. Good Night and all that.
