Yay, milestoners!!

Seems the disturbance in the force is still there...
((((Delilah))))
((((Everyone))))

After a week of spring-like weather, winter has returned. We have another 'snow day' so no school. There is also a blizzard warning as the wind is supposed to pick up-

I'm stuck here so I've decided to have two jobs for the day:

1. Make linguini with shrimp
2. Along with Good Citizen Cat, keep an eagle eye on The Renegade so he doesn't go out in this mess

24 more hours please.

Take a moment and count to 10 when you get overwhelmed. This is only a temporary thing. You can change it. Even if it will take time, you can decide now to know it and breathe a little easier.

Just Breathe for now and walk away for a moment when you get overwhelmed. Even a moment can sometimes help. Just know too, that this is a temporary thing. You can get beyond this. It may take some time but this is just a glitch.

They aren't sure the cause, my EKGs had some abnormalities, and were different than previous, but all blood work came back showing no cardiac enzymes.

The doctor gave me three nitro tablets and a nitro paste during my stay because he was concerned about heart attack, thankfully that didn't happen, but the nitro left me with an awful headache. They gave me some pain meds for the headache, and I am going to try to head to sleep early tonight. I do not want to stay home again tomorrow, but will see what my body says in the morning.

On a side note, I hate IVs. Every time I go to the hospital I tell them that I am a difficult stick, every nurse thinks they can do it, three sticks later today they rolled in the ultrasound machine ringing the best vein. I asked them to note that in my record somehow.

Going to read a little and then off to bed really early for me!

Have a great night everyone.

❤Delilah
Are you still on a blood thinner, Del? From your surgery?

I was told to stay on mine for another 30 days afterwards. I'm sure your orthopedic knows about your ER visit?

Try to get a little more rest. You've been quite busy with surgery, teaching and trips.

was the result of his comments!!!
Bicycling and swimming is best for the knees now.

He has struggled with drugs his whole life, he is 38 years old and will now be in big trouble.

My poor mom has tried to be there for this kid through way too many things, and now is trying to be strong. He still lives with her, even though he has twin 1.5 year olds. She doesn't want him there any more, and is not planning on bailing him out.

Please send some prayers.
Oh sweetie and you are with your own problems, too. Sending prayers for all of you!

Try not to get to stressed out on all of this.

Meditate, pray and talk to your friends.
