Making my way on my terms
Same old song and dance… I keep flashing back to my doctor’s appointment and about her lack of care about me. I keep looking and reading and researching what I should be doing, what I could be taking. I’ve been looking at muscle builder supplements even. But they still aren’t anything I [...]
The more I think about my appointment last week, the more annoyed I get. I can’t believe she wouldn’t bother trying to help me with anything. In, here’s your pills, come back in July, bye. Lovely.I keep reading about diet pill side effects, wishing that I could find one that was going [...]
Hi, I’m still alive. First things first, a belated Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and mother figures out there. I spent most of my Sunday cooking and spending time with Mom. Made a cake and cooked dinner. My sister showed up Friday out of the [...]
Okay, now that the doctor appointments are done for Rob for a month, I’ll post an update on it all. On the 30th, he had a follow up for his eye. The verdict is that it looks a lot better, but not completely gone yet, we’ll see what it looks like in another [...]
I was ambitious today. Seriously. I made Italian bread (in the bread machine, yes I am a cheater) and it turned out SO good. I’ve failed at simple white bread, I’ve failed at simple wheat bread, but my Italian bread came out almost perfect. It didn’t cave in for a [...]
Today was not Epic Fail, just a waste of time. Well, this morning was at least. We got a call last night in the middle of a thunderstorm from the dental office I took Rob to before the eye crap started up again, asking us to come in for a consultation because they [...]
Okay, lets dive into this head first! Tuesday afternoon I called Rob’s eye doctor because I really did not like the look of his eye at all and he only does procedures on Wednesday. His appointment was scheduled for Thursday, though, and I knew he was going to need to have procedure and waiting [...]
I keep coming back to looking at treadmills that I’d like to have in my home. I know that when I go back to the doctor Monday, she’s going to tell me to walk more. I would, but I know my limits. I know the only way that I could possibly walk as [...]
Okay, so showering when you have back problems is never any fun, especially if you have a slippery tub shower, rather than a shower stall. It’s so easy for your feet to go out from under you and hurt yourself. This is especially true for older people as well, which is why it [...]
One of the things that I’ve always done since I’ve had Internet access at home is to research anything that someone says to me. For instance, If someone says that they have a certain health condition, like mesothelioma, I will go learn as much as I can about the condition before discussing it with [...]
