We know this is silly, but we wanted a cute way to wish everyone a happy, healthy and Chocolate-filled Valentine’s Day! We hope you all had a beautiful day! The song goes to the tune of ‘To all the girls I loved before’, by Mr. Willie Nelson. For those of you who do not have a clue who Willie Nelson is, try Google…heeeheee
What’s the most surreal experience you’ve ever had?
As a young nurse, I admitted my very first patient around three o’clock in the morning. I became a nurse, long before Assisted Living Homes and Hospices, were on every corner.
The gentlemen I admitted was in the hospital to be made comfy in his last few hours. His family was with him.It was real sad to see him so sick, but he was headed to a better, pain-free place.
He wasn’t with me long, within the hour after admission, I suggested to his family that they spend time together and say their good-byes. Within the hour, he had passed away.Â
While in the room, taking care of my last details.The gentlemen’s brother walked to the bed, placed his hand on his leg and stated,
“I’d give anything to see him take one more breath.”Â
The patient had not moved a muscle in over ten minutes, the minute his brother made his statement, the patient sat straight up in the bed, his eyes open, took a deep breath and smiled. He fell backwards, onto his pillow and never moved again.
Being my first admission, I will never forget this man and his family. I truly believe I saw an act of God that night.
I’ve done it again. This time I tangled with the throw rug in the master bathroom, but me thinks I’ve done my left knee in, again.
Just over a year ago, I tore the meniscus cartilage in my knee. This time, I couldn’t put weight on the knee and it was swollen down into my foot. The doctor said nothing broken, she wanted to check because of the swelling. She gave me a topical ointment for pain, which is some good stuff; sent me home to grease it up and stay off it! She also did a cortisone shot…worked….ehh???
She said when I return; if it is no better, she’ll get a joint MRI (where they inject die in the knee) to see what the damage is. If needed, we’ll talk surgery then.Â
I truly prefer not to hear those words, but I have to be able to walk. I asked the doctor; if they have to operate, can I get a 2 for 1 deal? I’ve dealt with my solid tumor in my right wrist, the doctor has said it will need to come out. I figure, while I’m asleep, let them fix both. Save me one episode of general anesthesia. We’ll see. I’m ready to NOT be in pain!
To start the day off, I woke up a grumpy mess. Barry and my left arm told me why I was so tired this morning, when I got alert enough to listen.
Apparently, I spent the night hitting the wall, bed, myself and Barry, all night. My arm hurts so bad this morning. I also managed to bloody my nose last night and I have bruises on my forehead.
My left hand isn’t bruised yet, but it sounds and feels like it shoud be. Barry told me the dog wouldn’t get in the bed with us last night, so I was scaring my poor puppy during the night.
The morning did not get any better, my balance is terrible and my right hand is even shaking. My head feels like it will blow off at any second and the pain is radiating from the base of my skull, where the tumor is.
My eyes are somewhat focused, but a took a lot of exercising to get them there. It was mid-morning before I could focus. I took a nap, that hasn’t helped. Drugs and more sleep are next.Also a call to the neurologists office.
I probably will go crawl back in bed and hope this is gone tomorrow. I cannot stand when that dyuiiufdfv tumor takes over, I scare my husband. Since the stroke, he’s more sensitive and I hate he has to deal with me like this.
I should have known something was coming on. I spent yesterday stuck in giggle mode. Why couldn’t I get a day or two more of that. Everything was funny yesterday. I need to make sure I tell the neurologist’s office when they call.
I recently received notice of one more award. Give a couple of days to pick blogs I want to nominate and get the post put together.
Thank you to Tomas for the nomination. It is an honor being nominated by someone so talented
I’m not a huge pro-football follower, I’d rather see college games.
The biggest game of the year is on. The team that beat our home team is getting beat, I’ll admit I’m enjoying it.
Third quarter has just started and the dome loses power, no lights! I love it. All those people down there sitting in the dark. They paid a lot of money for tickets and are going to miss about 20 minutes of a game that will definitely go down in history as “The Dark Bowl”
Do they get a twenty minute refund? I’d be asking.
I guess the halftime show was too hot or could they have forgotten to pay the bill? Wouldn’t that be funny.
When you retire, do you go for creature comforts or do you get the car you always wanted, but didn’t want to spend the money? These days, Â what is my scooter carrier gonna do to the look of a hot rod?
Better yet, what are Barry and I gonna look like getting out of a hot rod? Can I get out of a hot rod? What is an old woman going wear in a hot rod. Barry has not wanted to spend the money on the car, but he has plenty of gear to wear. Trust me! He has been hot rod ready for several years.
I do not want to be the reason he is not getting the car he always wanted. If. It comes down to it, he can get a lift and swivel put on my seat.
Barry driving, not his hot-rod!
We are heading out to see what the gym is doing for a few hours. Rowdy Rooster Day was yesterday, so maybe we can get a good workout in. Have fun and make the day great! Barry and I intend too! Â Â Â Â Â Â
Barry at the gym.
Jill at the gym.
Need to do some cardio.
