Something Serious

Saturday, January 8th, 2011

Welcome back!

Mesothelioma is a serious word that denotes a very serious condition.

I have Diabetes, Osteoarthritis, Obesity, Sleep Apnea, and know of other things that could happen. Mesothelioma is not something to be taken lightly. If you need help, only prof3essional help will do.

So far, I do not know of someone personally who has this. I have friends and family who have experiences colon cancer, throat cancer, pneumonia, heart failure and other stuff. So far most of them have survived. If you go to the link that I put in the top of my article, there is information that you can read.

Most important of all, talk to your doctor.

FOOOD

Friday, November 26th, 2010

Yup, we are having a lot of food tomorrow.

We will be having turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, gravy, herb bread ) no stuffing as my husband is allergic to sage), several pies, and cake.

We will have our brother come over and visit while this meal is being presented. In other words, we will be having a feast.

I have one word to say about it all - YUMMMMMmmm.

Now what do I say?

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

Yes, that is the title of this article. I have no idea what to say.

Our friend who had been riding his motorcycle until he was hit, has told us that he is needing to get his medical bills taken care of. He did after all go to the ER and get a lot of Xrays to make sure that nothing was broken.

I guess the person who hit him will need something like insurancespecialists.com. I do not know if our friend was bruised, but we do know that he is hurting. His wife is thankful that he is alive.

Usually when a bike goes up against a car, the bike rider loses and most of the time, dies. I am glad that he is not one of those. I am glad that he is alive.

On the Road Again

Monday, June 21st, 2010

No, I am not talking about Willie Nelson’s song. However, it does have a point here.

I had mentioned that a friend of ours had a break-down in his bike and was stranded here where we live. He was able to get it fixed and was then able to get back home safe and sound. :)

Friend stopped by

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

A friend stopped by just now and was frustrated that he ran out of money for cigarettes. I have no idea if electronic cigarettes would help him or not. I guess it all depends on how much they cost.

He was working outside today and when he took a break, he met someone new. A fox kit stopped by and watched him. He sat down and watched right back. He tried to get the kit to get close, but it didn’t. They sat that way and watched each other for several minutes. Long enough to really study him and note that its chest was slightly red and the rest of it was kind of gray. The smile on our friend’s face when he told us about it was really amazing.

How often do we get a chance to study real wild critters without an interruption? :)

Later

Sunday, May 16th, 2010

Well, the running around has not yet stopped. I am feeling better since I started to take the new pain medication.

Now, if I can learn how to be more awake when I first get up in the morning, everything will be better. I feel like giving my doctor apersonalized gift as a way to say thank you for his help. I realize that he gets paid anyway, but at least he listens when we talk about what is going on, and how we feel.

One of our friends has a problem with continuous pain and has tried a lot of different drugs to get relief. I wonder if she was told about this one?

Funny Talk 3

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

Here I go again.

I heard something that had me laughing and giggling. My husband was talking to a close friend. They were cutting up and having a blast and telling jokes. The next thing I heard is what got to me.

I talk to both sides of myself.

Yes, it does read that he talks to both sides of himself. I laughed, then finally when I could get my breath I asked him what he meant. He told me that he has a serious side, and a funny side. I am not sure which one is the one that said that phrase. :)

Well, I’ve lost weight

Saturday, April 4th, 2009

Yes, I have lost weight. Having the flu will definitely take away your appetite.

A friend mentioned that it was noticeable. I’m just glad that she didn’t ask about the best diet pills to use to do that. She has been complaining about needing to lose weight. She is only about 20 lbs over what she wants to weigh.

I do not understand what she is worried about, though. She is newly divorced and has already had guys looking interested. Some models that I have seen on TV look as if they have anorexia or boulemia and need to see a doctor. I am no where near having to worry about being too skinny. Too skinny is just as bad as being too fat. It is just finding a balance between the two, I guess. Haven’t gotten there yet. :)

Learning Experiences

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

We have been learning a lot about funerals and what needs to be done in order to have them. I have decided that when I die, my body should be used for donation or for science or for both. When I am dead I will not care about what is left over.

If our friend had managed to have some finances set back, it could have been different. Any proper financial reporting that could have been done, might have changed things around considerably. We know that he will be buried with honors at the Veterans Cemetery and his grave will be maintained and supervised. I wish that we could have found family members that were left. Sooner or later maybe they will show, and we will be able to tell them what happened.

Laughter & Common Links

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

As I sit in my dining room and type, I hear my husband and our friend cracking jokes and snickering in the background.

It helps me to think sometimes. Other times, I find myself listening to what they are saying and losing my concentration.The laughter that I hear is actually rather nice. I mean, that while I am on the internet, my husband is not alone without some sort of companionship.

Our friend lives around the corner so can visit almost any time. He has a good sense of humor (maybe not as unusual as my husbands, but good) and when the two of them get together, we don’t know what is going to be brought up.However, there is something else that they have in common, Dyslexia. It is something that can limit a person and cause them problems that can last a lifetime.

Diagnosing it can start the process to learning how to overcome it. Ignoring it or rejecting the idea of it can cause severe problems. My husband went to school when they didn’t know or understand Dyslexia in the manner that it is understood now. he was put in ’special education’ back when it wasn’t so special. He can read now. Not a lot, but enough to read his bible. We have God to thank about that, not man nor school. If you know someone who has a problem reading, DON’T assume that the person is stupid. That would be a grave injustice to the person involved.
